CUTFLOWERS INDUSTRY

The hobby of growing orchids by housewives is graduating into a major industry in the area. They are finding out that the temperate climate condition in the province is very much conducive to the commercial growing of various species of orchids. It is not unusual to find now that gainfully employed husbands are also into it, too. Some are opting for an early retirement to go into big time cutflower production. Thus, although a relatively young sector, it has become a big industry that is earning for the province.
