thanks for your welcome note.I have just figured out how to reply.I am a rep for Everflora Chicago. We are wholesalers with our shipping department located in Franklin Park, Il. I call local florist retailers and event planners, sell them product available form our suppiers all over the world, and then it is shipped directly to them. It is a great way to sell as I am now in my fifth year fo working out of my home (and car) after 28 years of a retail and then a wholesale facility. I love it!
