FTD reported that they had 19% growth in their direct to consumer segment over the Valentines Day Holiday. One would expect such growth considering they bought florist.com & roses.com prior to Christmas.

My question for you is, since they must show Wall Street, growth, What gatherer do you think FTD has on their short list prior to Mothers Day?

Or, do you even think there is a list?

Rob -

Excellent observation and very good question. In early February Whosentflowers posted
A lot of OG's own many B&M shops all over the country. Some of us own multiple B&M's. One og I know for a fact own's 6 in Florida alone. I'm not trying to rub salt in the wound but I also know for a fact that many of you consort with theses og owned shops and don't even know it. A lot of them have sold-out and signed confidentiality clauses and continue to trade under the same name.
(emphasis mine)

Is it possible that the puchase of another OG has been made without any declaration by the company, allowing the operation to continue running under the radar? Whosent hasn't said who sold.

On Friday, FTD's stock again fell below the IPO price. They need to show growth - and fast. The quickest way is to buy it. At this point, I can only guess who - perhaps somebody from Virginia, Florida or California?
