Cut-flower grower targets a niche market

摘要

Originally a pepper operation, Casey Greenhouses is slowly growing into the anthurium cut flower market. Schafer Side Road, located just a concession or two west of the town of Delhi (pop. 4,000), is a long way from the bustling flower auctions of theNetherlands and from one of the most diversified horticultural operations in Saudi Arabia. But this quiet, rural concession road in southwestern Ontario is home to a cut-flower grower who used to work in the Dutch auctions and the Middle East.
