It was cold, windy valentine's day but it’s also one of the busiest days for flower shops.
Reporter Greta Goede rode along with a driver from Town and Country Floral along who had to brave the cold and protect the flowers from the elements during deliveries.
It was a busy morning inside Town and Country Floral, making flower arrangements, and preparing to send them into the frigid outdoors.
"There’s a little more preparation that goes into it having to cover the flowers, they don't like the cold temperatures,” Driver Brian Weil said.
Weil works at StratCom but helps run deliveries on busy days like Valentine’s Day.
With the flowers safely wrapped, he braved the wind and freezing rain to deliver the arrangements safely.
“The wind was playing up, but you just got to protect the flowers and cradle them until they can get inside,” he said.
To deliver the arrangements safely
“Happy Valentine’s Day,” he said handing off the flowers.
