Advertisement The Andrews government is a thorn in flower wholesaler Tony Pavlou’s side after he was left with $200,000 of premium red roses due to Victoria’s snap lockdown over Valentine’s Day. Mr Pavlou, owner of the Australian Flower Group, had imported 2.5 tonnes of the roses from Ecuador and Kenya, which trebled in price on the industry’s most profitable day of the year. “They are just sitting in their boxes, we don’t know what we’re going to do with them,” he said. “They’ve got a limited lifespan and they are probably worth now 25 per cent of what they were.”
