Freesia Price and the Dutch Flower Exchange
The price of Freesia depends on the prices on the Dutch Stock Exchange. The Dutch Flower Exchange in the small town of Aalsmeer near Amterodam is the center of the cut and potted flower trade. It is a huge three-story center where you can buy flowers between 6 and 11 o'clock. Its area is so huge that it is even listed in the Guinness Book of Records as the second largest commercial space.
Growers from all over the world offer their products here every day, while flower sellers and importers buy flowers here. The price is determined using the so-called Dutch auction, which, however, has different rules than the classic auction, as you know it from, for example, auctions of real estate or works of art. It is moving downwards. The price starts above the regular selling price and falls until one of the buyers accepts the selling price. As for the price of freesias, the good news is that they are among the stable cut flowers in terms of price, unlike other types such as roses, tulips, peonies or hydrangeas . So you can normally buy freesia all year round for more or less the same price.

Growing freesias
Of course, you can grow freesias, ideally in a greenhouse, but they can also be grown in a flowerpot or on a flower bed. However, they are not suitable for novice growers, as they are quite demanding. They are susceptible to both habitat and soil. You can grow them both from seeds (a more demanding option) and from tubers. They require a sunny location, but the sharp direct sun does not do them very well, so freesia needs to be shaded in the hot summer. They need airy, moist soil and regular fertilizing. If you give them proper care, they will definitely reward you. If you do not have suitable conditions for growing freesias or time to devote to them, it is better to buy freesias either already grown in a flower pot or cut, because they last a very long time even in a vase.
Use of freesias
Freesias are a symbol of friendship, which is why they are often part of floral arrangements for a friend or sister. Due to the fact that they are on a relatively long stem, they have an interesting flower shape and they last a long time, they are very popular in various flower arrangements and arrangements, including wedding bouquets and elegant arrangements for luxurious interiors. In floral arrangements, they complement tulips, hydrangeas, roses, peonies and buttercups in full bloom very well. In essence, however, they can be combined with almost any flower, but it is advisable to choose the right color so that they complement each other well.
