The sales of Dutch lily bulbs in China is becoming very difficult. In Lingyuan market, the most popular varieties siberia and sorbonne 14/16, the price is dropping quickly, contributors are forced to promote the remaning bulbs at lower price, even 1-2 canceled or are preparing to cancel their order form importers.
In Yunnan market, unpopular varieties, such as Sheila 14/16, La mancha 16/18, yelloween14/16 ,etc is becoming very cheap, about Rmb 1-1.5 per bulb, but the demand is still limited.
Main reason is because the flower price of lily is very low, about Rmb 10-30 per ten stems, the farmers who planted in early period is losing much money. |
