The prices of tulipanes and roses in Russia increased by 25% by 2024

The bulbs of tulips, planted by national manufacturers, almost duplicate, Vladimir Panin, the founder of Tsvetkom, told the publication. He connected this with the crop failure in the Netherlands, where in 2024 only 3 billion bulbs were produced, 4.5 billion of the year before.

As a result, Russian flower producers are forced to buy bulbs at a price of 19 to 27 eurocentes each, which is much higher than the last price of 9-13 centers of euros. The cost of a truck truck increased from € 70 to € 150 thousand, Panin said. A year ago, the cost of tulips among national manufacturers was at least 38 rubles each, but now it has increased to 60-65 Rublos, he said. Retail prices also increased: if they previously fluctuated between 70 and 80 rubles, they now start from 100 rubles.

The increase in the price affected imported tulips, since tariff . The minimum vacation price for tulips brought is now 70 rubles, Panin concluded.

Flower retail prices vary according to the seller. For example, the “affordable flower delivery” service offers three tulips at a price of 700 to 950 rubles (that is, from approximately 233 to 317 rubles each). In the Cvety Love Service, a Tulip will cost the buyer 225 rubles, writes Shopper’s.

More than half of all sales of flowers cut in Russia fall into Rosas, but the increase in tariffs on them did not affect them, because most import comes from the “friendly” Kenya and Ecuador, said Victoria Krylova, Executive Director of the National Association of Victoria Krylova. It is there where many European manufacturers open production due to cheap labor, a large amount of sun and low cost of electricity. However, according to Panin, the prices of the roses of these countries increased by 20-25% due to the currency courses and the increase in the cost of logistics.
