The most unpretentious and convenient planting material is bulbs, from which you can grow tulips, lilies, hyacinths, daffodils, snowdrops. Subject to the growing regime and proper care of one bulb per season, you can get about a hundred bulbs. If your plantations are large enough, then the profits will be impressive.

Growing popular Russian roses and other flowers using Dutch breeding material is one of the promising business opportunities. Take part in major flower exhibitions, festivals and auctions in Europe. Buy seed there, negotiate the supply of seedlings. Consult with the German and Dutch flower growers who take part in these exhibitions, and establish business relations with them.
