Daffodils particularly ... that I believe are currently rotting on UK
farms by million as there are too few people to pick them (mostly
thanks to Brexit and some Covid).

SWMBO buys daffs at only a quid a bunch from any supermarket we
happen to be
in. But only until those in our garden come into flower.


Buying air-freighted flowers, fruit and veg is something that
people should avoid doing. And if they are 'global warming'
believers then they are plain hypocrites anyway.


I doubt if Cornish daffodils are 'air freighted"

Don't be Scilly
