No matter which florist is your favorite, keep in mind that it's nearly May, which means Mother's Day is around the corner, May 13, to be precise. And prom will be here before you know it too.

So if flowers or plants are your gift of choice for Mom or Grandma, or if you'll need a corsage to give someone for prom, it's best to order soon.

Thanks to all who voted and commented and thanks always for reading Patch!
