By pretty every objective standard, the world used to be empty. But it was far from it. If the world were empty, then humanity would have never been able to survive even a single generation. This is because early humans wandered around the world nomadically, hunting and gathering in order to keep on with the not dying. Then they settled down, because it turned out that cultivating resources was a lot easier than either hunting and gathering. Now, as time marched forward as it is wont to do, people started cultivating the superfluous, things that were not essential for survival. This has continued into the modern day with lavender store traverse city mi.

Lavender is a color. But it also a flower. One that grows in the Old World and is cultivated primarily for essential oils and other such things. The color itself is pleasing to the eye, so the plant often finds itself used as ornamentation.

There are a number of reasons that a person may take up horticulture as a hobby. One is that they simply like being around plants, around other living things. Another is that it simply helps to keep them busy, to give something with which to occupy their time.

The reason that a brick and mortar store still manages to drum up business in an age where anything and everything can be ordered online is because of freshness. Flowers are not immortal, especially not when harvested. Packaging and processing online orders takes time, time which a flower may not have.

Shopping online may be viable, particularly if the store is local. Orders can be placed online and then shipped out and received the very same day. Sometimes, customers can even place orders in advance for specific dates in the future.

There is some significance to flowers in human culture. Oftentimes, suitors will present their intended with a bouquet, because that is apparently how love is expressed, with flowers. It is also particularly common among teenagers to present their dates with a corsage that they can wear on their wrists.

Then they are also brought into the home. There are practical reasons for this. Plants breathe in carbon and they breathe out oxygen. Not only does that keep the internal temperature regulated, it also makes the air cleaner and purer, and thus, better to breathe.

Of course, everything has its price. This is because business like stores, online or otherwise, have costs that they must meet. Not to mention employees to compensate. Without that compensation, many an employee will walk out of the business. It should be noted as well that not compensating labor is technically slavery in many places, and is illegal because of it.

The thing about the world is that humankind needs it. There is no question about. Without it, the species as a whole would die a slow, painful death. But, human intervention has also made it so that nature now needs humanity in order to preserve it.
