Some 62% of flowers sold in the UK are from Holland, 7% from Africa, 11% from South America and 10% from other countries.

By comparison Germany is 48% self-sufficient in cut flowers, France is 29% self-sufficient and the Netherlands 58% self sufficient.

Researcher Tine Niezink said: "As Germany produces a lot of flowers and plants within its borders, it's fairly easy for the Germans to respond to trends like 'local products for local people' and sustainability."
