You do not buy flowers in the US and put them on a plane to China. Instead, you utilize a <strong>local fulfillment model<\/strong>: you place the order and pay from the US, and a master florist in the recipient&#8217;s exact Chinese city handcrafts and delivers the arrangement.<\/p>\n\n    <!-- Executive Summary Box -->\n    <div class=\"us-cn-summary-box\">\n        <h3>At a Glance: The US to China Delivery Model<\/h3>\n        <div class=\"us-cn-summary-row\">\n            <strong>Fulfillment Strategy:<\/strong>\n            <span>100% Local.
