Pricing and Costs of Flower Growers

Among flower growers, the most important purchases made are bulk flower seeds. Yes, you'll probably also need to buy good soil, lights, pots and a host of other equipment, but when you get right down to it, the heart of your business is seed. You'll quickly find that quality is of the utmost consideration when determining the pricing and costs of flower growers, whether you buy flower seed packets or seeds in bulk from flower seed suppliers.

Flower growers may break down the types of seeds they may purchase into three broad categories. Many businesses may currently purchase from only one category, but do consider branching out in order to broaden your business. These categories are:

1. Annuals and perennials from wholesale flower seed companies,

2. Bulk products from a wild flower seed company,

3. And flowering herbs from a wholesale flower seed supplier.

Check out annuals and perennials from a flower seed company

Annuals and perennials will probably make up the bulk of your seed purchases, and they vary wildly in price, depending upon type. In general, however, common flower seeds run between $2 to $28 per pound (sometimes sold as 1,000 seeds). Seeds that are more difficult to obtain may run as high as 100 for $20 to $35.
Try: Oregon Wholesale Seed offers a fine variety of annuals and perennials in 5- to 50-lb. bags. Mountain Valley Seeds sells annuals, perennials and many other types of seeds at excellent wholesale prices.

Buy wild flower seed wholesale

Wild flowers are generally on the less expensive side of things, making them a promising path toward higher profits. Depending upon seed type, wild flowers usually sell for between $2 and $20 per pound, or $2 to $5 a packet.
Try: Holland Wildflower Farm sells quality wild flowers in packets, ounces and pounds. Beauty Beyond Belief Wildflower Seeds offers wild flower seeds at bulk, wholesale prices; individual seeds and mixes are both available. Click on the "View our Catalog" button to see what's available.

Research flowering herbs from a flower seed supplier

Flowering herbs are often overlooked by both flower growers and their customers. Why not introduce your customers to flowering herbs, for sturdy plants that are less commonly seen? Herbs often run in the same price range as wild flowers: about $2 to $30 a pound. More rare herbs (like False Indigo) can cost as much as $80 to $90 a pound wholesale.
Try: Agrich provides quality herbs at wholesale prices, in quantities as low as 100 and as high as 10,000 seeds. Also, check out neseed.com for retail packets or bulk quantities from 1/4 ounce to 1 pound.

Consider selling flower seed packets, as well as flowers themselves. Many wholesalers offer seeds in packets, but you can also buy attractive seed envelopes online. Or simply use small manila envelopes to offer seeds to your customers.

Tips & Advice to help you make your decision on Flower Growers

Are you trying to find quality flower growers in your area? A flower grower is simply an individual or company that grows and cares for flowers and then sells them to the public, usually for events like weddings, birthdays, Mother's Day, etc. They often have a degree in the care of plants, or are botanists, but this is not always the case. Because many flowers are delicate, and may be difficult to grow in a particular environment, shops or stores which sell flowers may have both an indoor and outdoor area where they are cultivated.

When you are searching for a flower grower you likely have quite a few options depending on your area. There are a few things to keep in mind as you ... more
