In this Thursday, January 29, 2015 photo, a farmer carries fresh cut flowers purchased by self-employed Yaima Gonzalez Matos, 33, to her rented car, in San Antonio de los Banos, Cuba. Gonzalez joined the ranks of Cuba's small class of entrepreneurs three years ago when she lost her job in human resources at a state-owned enterprise. To support herself and her son, she followed the example of friends working in the island's new private flower business. (Photo by Ramon Espinosa/AP Photo)
