Question
My son got engaged, and I need to buy a bouquet of flowers for the bride. Should I be concerned about the sanctity of the Shemitah year in flowers now (in the month of Cheshvan)?
Answer
Shalom and Mazal Tov
Since currently most flowers do not have the sanctity of the Shemitah year, [some were grown in the eighth year, some in greenhouses, and some grow on perennial bushes], there is no need to be concerned, and you may purchase as usual.
