disagree  Robert Gulewicz: "Floral merchandise" może oznaczać po prostu "kwiaty", np. http://www.freepatentsonline.com/3593538.html

Można też spróbować "decorative floral (/florist) supplies" - w ten sposób pozbywamy się produktów mających zastosowanie bardziej praktyczne niż estetyczne, np. narzędzi.

disagree  Polangmar: Odrzuciłem wcześniej "floral accessories", bo "Floral accessories including craft scissors, glue, ribbon shredders, glue dots and much, much, more! Essential product to produce professional flower arrangements." (drugi link); są to przybory kwiaciarza.

  -> Z drugiego odnośnika rzeczywiście tak wynika, czyli sam sobie nim zaprzeczyłem ;) Jednak wiele takich sklepów sprzedaje też choćby wstążki, ozdobne wazony czy sztuczne owady, nie umieszczając ich w żadnej osobnej kategorii.
neutral  Anna Grynfeld Smith: "Floral florist supplies" seems to be an established phrase and narrows it down to the essentials as described by Polangmar.

  -> "Floral florist supplies" seems like a SEO trick to me. Plenty of "florist floral supplies" out there, too.

florist, gifts & novelties


Explanation:
In addition to floral arrangements the “more” is a fairly wide variety of collegiate and NFL wear and novelties, and various other gifts items in western, camo, and golf motifs - http://www.kiowacountysignal.com/features/x161458229/Mother-...

neutral  Robert Gulewicz: Czy w pierwszym linku nie chodzi przypadkiem o gadżety związane z hokejem, golfem, westernami itp.?
5 hrs
  -> być może, ale "novelties" jest takim słowem-przykrywką na wszelkiego rodzaju „tandetę”
neutral  Polangmar: kwiaciarz, prezenty, nowości??
15 hrs
  -> zgoda, „florist” się źle wpisał, natomiast "novelties" to tutaj nie „nowości”

ancillary commodities for flower shops


Explanation:
Tak bym proponował obejść temat, aby nie tłumaczyć wyrażenia na siłę:

Ancillary commodities for flower shops include: packaging materials, ceramic ware, glassware (albo: glass ware), seasonal decorations, gifts, etc.

Zamiast commodities może być products.

ancillary = auxiliary, supplementary <the need for ancillary evidence>
m-w.com

Seasonal decorations:

Oczywiście, zamiast flower shops może być florists.
Do uznania pytacza.

Aby było jednoznacznie, można uzupełnić, np.: Ancillary commodities for sale (może: selling) from flower shops...

neutral  Polangmar: Moim zdaniem galanteria florystyczna to towar dla klientów, a nie wyposażenie kwiaciarni.
