Fresh flowers

Due to the effects of the new coronavirus, flower distribution has now been dramatically reduced. Events and concerts have been postponed and cancelled, ceremonies such as weddings and funerals have been simplified, and the demand for flowers continues to drop drastically. Flowers have a life of their own and will wither if they miss the right time. This way the flowers that have been carefully nurtured and bloomed beautifully are saved
from being discarded.
