Sales by Type
Floral met the 2024 sales levels in December, despite financial pressure
Overtaking the typical top sellers, bouquets and roses, potted plants generated $152 million in December. Despite being the top seller, this was down 2% in dollars and 6% in units compared with December 2024.
Roses did have a very strong December performance, through a combination of inflation and unit growth. Arrangements and outdoor plants (likely including Christmas trees) also experienced substantial boosts in unit sales.
