You’ve probably noticed the many bamboo products that are available from a wide variety of retailers. From fabric to flooring and nearly everywhere else in the home, you can find a bamboo product to serve the purpose.
Why is bamboo such a big deal? There are three main reasons:
- Bamboo grows very fast, meaning it’s easy to replenish. This means that bamboo is relatively inexpensive.
- Bamboo is also a more environmentally friendly choice, again because it grows so quickly.
- Bamboo is strong yet lightweight, making it a great material choice for many applications.
At Teleflora, we’re excited to begin offering our own bamboo products! Teleflora’s bamboo cube takes a shape that’s been very popular among consumers and florists alike and updates it with the choice of bamboo material in two color options.
