Video: Asia's biggest wholesale market for flowers

The Dounan flower market located in Southern China’s Yunnan province, is the biggest flower wholesale market in Asia. As night descends, a hive of activity begins as distributors and producers come together to satiate the needs of the international market.

Something of an organised chaos reigns with tens of thousands of auctions completed within the 4 hours of trading, each electronic auction taking a mere 2 to 3 seconds to complete with over 1 million fresh flowers sold and an annual trade of 700 million Yuan and rising.
