The floral industry is one of the major industries in many developing and under developing countries. Floriculture as an industry began in the late 1800s in England, where flowers were grown on a large scale on the vast estates. The floral industry essentially consists of three major components: the growers, the wholesalers and retailers whose business are quite intermingled. The recent trends are more towards eliminating the intermediaries, the wholesalers between the growers and the retailers, so that flowers are made available at considerably low prices.
However, the floral industry today has grown too mush large proportions and offers a wide scope for growth and profit.
 The book has been written for the benefit and to prove an asset and a handy reference guide in the hands of students, teachers, researchers, new entrepreneurs and well established industrialists.
