Wholesale market
A market where florists and traders buy flowers in bulk from growers and wholesalers.
Also: flower market
Wholesale flower markets work in the very early morning, so buyers can be back in their shops by opening time. Sellers offer boxes and bunches from many growers and countries, along with foliage, plants and supplies. New Covent Garden Flower Market in London, Ota Market in Tokyo and the Dounan market in Kunming are well-known examples. Some markets open to the public at certain hours. Visiting one is a good way to see what is in season.
