fresh milk and rose ... 
The flowers are as fresh milk ... products that can last for several days
a simple law of nature .
The flowers are harvested in early morning or in the cool hours of the day ...
And after the collection ....... waiting in plastic tubs, at a temperature not exceeding 4 degrees, water and immersed in a solution antibacterial label.
The duration that they remain with the manufacturer never exceeds 3 or 4 days ....
Then the roses begin their journey .... brought to the merchant, and stowed in the fridge waiting to be shipped to a destination that can 'be in Italy, Germany, Switzerland etc. ..
After a few days (from the collection pass about 10 days, sometimes less) come to the end user ... the flower shop ... which in turn, must 'sell to you, you want a bouquet of roses (I recommend FRESH!)
Many people still IO incredulous when giving a bouquet of flowers after the collection (and the first cold storage) say ...
These flowers have lasted at least 10 days! Two weeks ...!!!!
AS 'POSSIBLE?
Just do a simple addition ... 3 days + manufacturer on average 3 to 5 days from the first trader + 2 or 3 days from a possible second dealer, or clearing + flower shop or shopping mall on average 3 to 6 days ...... If you think that the average duration of a flower and 'at least 12 days, you know the' cause the flowers do not last ....
Another thing (worse) if the roses "fresh" come from other parts of mondo.Nonostante that the transport and marketing are more and more 'fast You'd be surprised by the techniques that are used for storage complex as the rose flower bouquets of roses .... I come to be partially dehydrated, up to look like dried flowers, and stowed for flying to better withstand the trasporto.All 'arrival prior to marketing, roses back to life through a complex process of water vapor.
It 's a unique process technology, which enables roses that come from areas such' distant world to be fresh and beautiful ..... but in the short durata.Cosi 'is the law of business .. If not last too c 'and enough economic return .....
would be a great dream of the day that the flower growers selling the products to a greater extent directly to the people .... and people would be surprised also another thing ...
The price that is' also 5-10 times lower than ......
lasts longer 'and it costs less ..... strange right?
a 'last time I will talk to you' cost, and because a producer can 'hope to get from a dealer in flowers ... will be' another surprise ...
what would you do? Bouganville seedless 
What would you do if your wife asked you to publish a photo of his bonsai plants? I sold, and to the delight of your eyes, around the splendor of this magnificent plant bougainvilleas made bonsai with flowers.
Note for those who do not know, that the true flower of the bougainvillea and 'little flower yellow at the center of "flower" viola.Infatti, staining purple, and 'just changing the color of some leaves that create the illusion of a real flower.
Another thing .. This plant is' native Australia, and it seems incredible, but all the plants we see (almost) the world are made by the roots to make a piece of a plant bougainvillea ramo.NON THERE started from seed in a protetto.E so it is not 'possible to make genetic crosses (ie' fertilize the flower)
that the varieties 'are THE SAME scoperta.Se someone from their' managed to get seeds of bougainvillea, has achieved something of history, and almost unique.
Priceless ..
whitefly pests or the white flying ... 
After a break due to the phase of collection (which I will explain 'in another post ..) I wanted to talk about a threat to flowers vegetables ... etc appeared in the last 20 years. Qusta small fly (which I love to call white plague wheel ..)
and 'a nightmare for all types of vegetale.Si gathers in flocks of 100 200 elements and papers literally the bottom of the leaf by depositing eggs pianta.Girando and hurting a little over an Australian site, I found a home remedy to remove this scourge ...
This 'simple advice and although it has tested on different plants I take responsibility' for damaged plants, etc etc. ..
One liter of solution are needed .. 3 cloves of garlic, chopped fine, which is added two tablespoons of vegetable oil medium (such as oil seeds). It should be left to macerate the mixture of oil and garlic for 24 hours, and eventually take a plastic bottle (those one and a half mineral water are fine) and put the mixture into the bottle, add one liter of water, and half a tablespoon of dishwashing detergent ecological (ecological 'cause it has a low content of chemical components that could damage the treated plants).
... Mix vigorously and pour the mixture into a sprayer.
sprayed over the top and bottom of leaves infested by this WARNINGS Diptera
Use less hot in the hours, do not expose the plant to the sun
and take a test on a leaf if the plant has no problems with the insecticide.
Otherwise, if the leaf retreats on itself or change the color and 'better not ..
Remember that you are directly responsible for what you are doing ..
then use the solution of garlic oil and water ecological detergent carefully, and remember to apply a label with the word poison away from children and close plants in a locked cupboard. Prudence
it 's never too right?
Good luck!
greenhouses and bottles of wine The area where I live and 'known by many people for the flowers ... Until the early twentieth century first century, the first crops in the open (Ie 'non-protected outdoor) aprofittando particular climate protected from the mountains and the proximity of the sea have dotted the landscape of San Remo and the surrounding areas ...
And then for reasons of years away from extremely cold, and to ensure the production throughout the year, lots of glass buildings are framed in iron, wood, woven cane, or just ... This has led in the years to see the terraced hills (known in local dialect groups)
instead of fields of vision, usually in a stretch of buildings from the roof in white or light pink color for sun protection
Seeing the hills with the program google earth
you can see this particular phenomenon, seen from this large area biancastra.regolare.
Some cried foul because 'such a view is not' in line with the canons of aesthetics, defacing the landscape.
I agree with loro.Potrei think removing my greenhouses, and I think that other growers would agree with me, if I could have a guaranteed income in case of disasters' weather, and even the non-guaranteed income, variability from the 'climate condition so radical that the crops, not more' protected by greenhouses. And together we
growers could also wear to the delight of tourists costumes, running between the terraced, with bundles of flowers in bloom ( which are not to be accepted by buyers' cause was in too advanced)
a straw hat on his head, and even singing the old songs Sanremasche to the accompaniment of a guitar and a flask of local wine ..... it CKE you say? think that tomorrow I will receive 'proposals in this regard?
nano nano! 
I understand that the photos do more 'to what I write .... One of the worst enemies of a farmer, and' the grass ... days and busy days with any mechanical means to remove this scourge ... and more 'time' that is well disposed 'fequenti humid temperate rain, and worse, and' .. One of the plants ever in my part and that ' considered weed and 'the Parietaria officinalis, well known by allergies .... but also by herbalists that enhance the properties' cleansing diuretic and refreshing ... and 'the plant to the left of the dwarf in the picture .. which is not' a copy of my person ... (and the dwarf 'more' attractive to me)
One of my dreams would be to cultivate parietaria ... instead of destroying it ... Given the ease 'growing ....
Most unfortunately, using very sharp to remove half the problem ... the grass herbicide, creating a nice napalm in the area in which it is to be distributed. (That is clear, there are borderline cases in which 'need to use even this chemical means) the unpleasant side effect, and 'apart from the fact that that depending on the chemical substance used for months and 'can not even think to grow, our great Mother Earth has seen fit to make plants more and more' resistant to the chemical principle, requiring the farmer to use larger quantities of herbicide, the frantic search of chemical principles more and more 'effective (= destructive) that in the end, achieve a dual purpose .. the progressive pollution of the soil and increase the profit margins of companies produttrici.Ehi, mind you, I do not I want to do the ecologist, just because 'is so' out of fashion ... but keeping in touch with nature, I will not cut the bough on which they are sitting ... my hope and 'one day leave the land in I work a bit less polluted than when my grandparents started this adventure ...
but as Aristotle said "
Hope is the dream of one who is awake"
time as the basis of life ... plants without land base ...(???) and now you've realized that you're dealing with a person is always careful to more ...
and 'time to ask you if you ever got up in the morning just noticed the time .. We have understood the need to know' cause you have to take an umbrella if it rains or if it is too hot or cold clothes changes accordingly ... but when at last you come to work in the cage of metallic cement your office, the time now, and 'a memory ...
But for me no, and 'a note constant throughout the day (and sometimes at night, in the case of sudden weather phenomena) Why 'as there are protections, controls that can reduce the effects of weather conditions of the plants, the action of the climate influence is not just growing .. .. Today
such as the sky and 'no sun, and the "machine" travels inside the plant is slow, but just a gust of wind conditions change, and the sun returns, which in this engine, especially this time of year spring almost summer, rolling like a race car ..... (???????)
Ah, but it 's true! Not I told you I grow plants without soil? "I understand your concerns' on the engine plant ... And before you think I'm completely crazy, I'll tell you 'the next time what it means to grow plants without soil (without being passed from neurodeliri)
begin to understand who 'this After a few days when trying to understand' cause he did not know of google ' existence of this blog page ... I think for a moment in these lines, the ability 'which must have a florist ...
A grower in practice must have knowledge of ... chemistry to understand the products that it used to have his plants in good health, hydraulic to repair any minor problems that exist large irrigation plants and related facilities (the general layout and 'done by professionals, but if you break a pipe, a Sunday, who fixes it?), accounting ' should continue to see if a particular job, meteorology (very very important!) without fail to fertilize, use phyto-sanitary products in days unsuitable,
general concepts of geometry and construction , to change lines inside the greenhouses, support structures, and determine how best to have the plants,
availability 'to the business contact to know how to sell your product,
company responsible for first aid and evacuation in the event of a disaster 'or an accident, within the same, have a technical knowledge practice of mechanical and electronic machines that should be used daily, and above all, a high dose of common sense and experience (even after you get wrong sometimes ..). And they say
arms stolen agriculture to tell someone who is not 'able to do anything ... oh, well ....
who knows maybe tomorrow' ... another part of the most 'complicated after the farmer and' .. protection of plants to protect them from cold and too hot, drought 'dampness' from too much manure and ...... and this little 'just the beginning ...
Parasites are bacteria fungi, viruses, parasites, animals ...... ...... ì
that spoil the flower, leaf, suck the sap and are perishable, damaged the roots ,......... OH! Short ENOUGH!!
three days that I come to you tell me, and I hear only talk about problems problems problems ... Ok, but how do I make you understand how to work if you do not explain the environment in which I live, things that I have to fight every day?
and believe the problems are just beginning!
Okay ... for the moment, look at this series of photos and thinks the job is done ...
there are flowers and flowers ..... 
picking flowers it means to live in contact with the natura.Voglio say that even if it 'can change some things (earlier flowering, quality ', length, etc. ..) Mother Nature is not perfect and a product packaging the same, but has changed continually caratteristiche.Ecco' cause in the photo you see hundreds of roses such as these are the difference that is productive 'Roses normal but with a flower that are more 'short 30 cm, more' weak, or bud slightly bent (even if the length exceeds 1 meter) That 's the harsh law of the market.
then tomorrow when you come in the greenhouse with me, these roses do not collect them, let them flourish, then the petals will bring to the feast of Corpus Domini, for infiorate.Hai understand? Ok, close the door of the greenhouse 'if not the wind out sulfur ..
are at my friend? 
If you are the captain on this site, maybe 'cause you're interested in flowers or the world of floricoltura.Quindi and' right that I make you understand the world in which six capitato.Iniziando particularly since this blog began , on a cloudy day in May, with the risk of rain.
A grower, to do his job is to protect its plants, its flowers.
That is why we have the means, perhaps a bit special, you've never seen from your desk ufficio.Le sulfur troops, are special pots, in which bubbles of true polvere.Durante sulfur in the night smoke coming from the pots in the greenhouse is lost, and helps protect the plants (in my case of roses) from type A mushroom, and that 'said powdery mildew (from the Latin for to be cool, "sphaeroteca creamy"). You've already' bored? A photo and 'better than a thousand words ...
Tonight my weather station says it will rain '.. greenhouses should not be closed completely, activated sulfur, high wind warning for quote.
's time to eat ... will be' something new 'for you ... maybe I drink green tea, and 60% of my power and' type orientale.Cosi 'in posts that follow will tell you' this too . Thanks for keeping me company, we start the adventure .... you're with me my friend?
beginning ... Almost night .. I just went through my troops arrayed against the enemy sulfur mushroom inside serre.E 'an evening Waiting while my weather station data rattles off data waiting to bad weather around the corner ..
Well, it 's time to drink jasmine tea, ginseng chicken and finish at noon ..
Tomorrow, flowers saved from the fury of the elements are transported in location 'safe.
I treat the technical details of the transaction ...
