Tried a new flower food supplier versus my old standby. The difference was huge.

Switched to 'BloomLife' packets for a wedding job in Denver last month. My usual brand, 'FreshFlora', kept roses perky for maybe four days. The new stuff? Those same roses looked perfect a full week later. Anyone else notice a massive gap between brands like this?

Seems like a fluke to me. FreshFlora always works fine for my shop. Could have been the water in Denver or a different rose supplier.

Wait, isn't that the same excuse people always use when something doesn't go right? Like when my phone battery dies and everyone says it's because I left it in the cold, but really the phone itself is just junk. FreshFlora might work fine for you most of the time, but that doesn't mean it's perfect for everyone everywhere. Denver water or different roses shouldn't matter if the product is supposed to be reliable across different conditions. It's like when a car brand says their cars are great unless you drive in rain or on hills - that's not a fluke, that's a design flaw. The whole "it worked for me so it must be your fault" thing is just lazy thinking that lets companies off the hook for bad batches or bad design.
