A Romanian in Dambovita County has recently returned from France after 18 years. He has started a business in growing hyacinths and now, just ahead the celebrations in March, he can hardly cope with the demand, tvr.ro reports.
Iosif Capraru decided to start his own business with the money he saved abroad. Initially he wanted to build a cattle farm, but found out it was too expensive. Then he turned to flowers and built a greenhouse to cultivate hyacinths.
The hyacinth bulbs were brought from the Netherlands and planted as early as October, in special conditions of humidity, luminosity and heat.
The hyacinths from Ocnita-Dambovita are ready for delivery at the beginning of March.
