In Minsk, a lilac bouquet is sold for 116 rubles. And that's with a discount

Lilac cannot be broken off in public (otherwise there's a fine), but it can be bought in a flower shop. However, a journalist from Myfin noticed that the prices for these flowers are not so budget-friendly. For example, the flower shop "Vals Kvetak" offers a lilac bouquet for 116 BYN. Judging by the offers of other shops, this is a common price.

The "Dopamine bouquet of lilacs", as it was called, consists of 11 tall 50-centimeter branches, decorated with designer packaging. If you "roughly" calculate the cost of one lilac branch, it comes out to about 10 BYN.

Judging by the reviews for the bouquet, there are orders, and customers are satisfied: they rate it 5 out of 5 maximum points.

The Minsk shop LaRose sells lilacs without packaging: 5 branches for 39.77. It is stated that the bouquet is "assembled today and ready for delivery". While in the previous bouquet the branch height was 50 cm, here it is 29 cm.

Journalists also saw an advertisement for selling lilacs by the piece: 10 BYN per branch.

The seller points out: the lilac season is very short.

A Myfin journalist contacted one of the shops asking to explain why lilacs are so expensive. Here's the comment we received:

"We purchase lilacs from local farmers, which allows us to support Belarusian producers and receive fresh flowers. The price of 10 rubles per branch includes careful delivery, storage, florists' work, and packaging, so that customers receive lilacs in the best possible condition. For comparison, imported lilacs from Holland cost almost twice as much (and that's just at wholesale), plus delivery from Holland is much more complex and longer in terms."

Breaking off lilac yourself, at least in public places, can be even more expensive. The Ministry of Natural Resources recently warned about this.
