I order my flowers and foliage online from the market. Didn't have any difference on foliage prices nor was there a shortage.

It's one of the biggest buying days and ties in with International Womens Day which happens on March 8th. Russia pays the highest price for flowers and foliage and this is a big day which is why we flagged it as a problem back in janaury. I'm not surprised prices are going up and supplies are short.

Saturday March 8th Woman's Day

This is a very special day for women around the world, especially in South America, Russia and Ukraine. Women's Day is actually more popular and more important than Valentine's Day! It is customary to give flowers, candy, or other small presents to the important women in your life.
