Flower Growers of Mississippi

Growing the Cut Flower Industry in Mississippi

Did you know that over 86% of specialty cut flowers are currently imported from other countries?

Surprisingly, we can grow 90% of these specialty cut flowers right here in our own state.

This is where the Flower Growers of Mississippi step into the picture!
