This resolution officially designates July 2025 as "American Grown Flower and Foliage Month" to highlight the significant contributions of domestic cut flower and foliage growers. It recognizes that these hard-working individuals bring beauty, economic stimulus, and pride to their communities and the nation. The Senate acknowledges that purchasing flowers and foliage grown in the United States directly supports farmers, small businesses, and thousands of jobs, contributing substantially to the U.S. economy. Despite consumers' increasing preference for locally grown products, only a fraction of flowers sold domestically are U.S.-grown, making consumer awareness and support crucial. The resolution also notes that domestically grown flowers often last longer due to shorter shipping times. Furthermore, the resolution emphasizes that cultivating flowers and foliage domestically is a vital part of the agricultural industry and enhances the ability of people to celebrate holidays and special occasions. It urges all people in the United States to proactively showcase domestically grown flowers and foliage to support the entire agricultural sector, including farmers, processors, and distributors.
