Mother’s Day is one of our favorite days of the year to treat mom with the best flowers and show her how much she is appreciated. Mothers, grandmoms, aunts, fur mommas, mom friends, and other inspiring mother figures in our lives deserve to be shown gratitude and admiration every day, but especially on Mother’s Day. That’s why your friends here at Kitty’s Flowers are giving you the inside scoop on how to make this year one of the best Mother’s Days yet with only the freshest and most beautiful blooms along with a few sentimental gifts for mom.

Send Mom Only the Best High-Quality Flowers

Surprise! The Freshest Flowers Are Not from a Gas Station!

Each time you walk into a grocery store, a big box store, or a gas station, you are met with bright and colorful flower bouquets at what seems to be a great price. Just say “no!” No to cheap flowers that have been cut weeks ago, traveled in crowded storage, and consist of mostly low-quality filler-flowers. Moms deserve better!

How to Get the Best Flowers for Mom

You can get the very best flowers for mom at a local, real, brick and mortar florist. Contact your local florist for help or find a local florist near where the recipient lives. Flowers from the florist are always from the best farms, have the best quality, and the longest vase life. Cheap flowers begin to wilt in as little as 4-5 days, whereas high-quality blooms can last up to 3-4 weeks with proper care. Local florists work every day to ensure blooms are responsibly sourced, received as soon as they are cut, arranged into beautiful, breathtaking designs, and delivered quickly and carefully with the sole purpose of putting a big smile on mom’s face.

Unique and Lavish Arrangements

Bouquets you find in generic stores are just a mixture of mediocre blooms bundled together. Moms deserve only the best – a skillfully designed arrangement by an expert in floral design that will blow her away. Often, the best choice when shopping local florist sites is to choose “Designer’s Choice” arrangements as you’ll be guaranteed a jaw-dropping arrangement of beautiful blooms that is completely unique and original. Many “wire-service” florists (online companies pretending to be real florists) display cookie-cutter designs that lack a lot of flair and are available pretty much everywhere. Make sure the florist you order from has a real brick-and-mortar shop and then go Lux or Designer’s Choice to make sure mom get the very best!

Top Customer Service

Florists love their customers and they will go out of their way to ensure both the giver and receiver have the best floral experience possible. Don’t expect that from a 1-800 floral delivery service. Large online floral retailers take your order and source it out to one of their “partner” florists – for a fee! – and getting in touch with them if there is a problem will surely get you the runaround. Floral shop owners take pride in their skills and customer service and if anyone can make miracles happen, they can.

Meaningful Words

Flowers themselves are great communicators and can send messages of love, admiration, friendship, and caring just from type of bloom and t color of bloom. Many recipients, though, expect a lovely written message to go with their beautiful bouquet and that’s where local florists can also help. Florists have spent years sending flowers and seeing or even creating written sentiments for every type of occasion. You’ll find a collection of written messages on local florist’s websites, or given a few suggestions during the checkout process, if you are in need of encouraging or loving words.

Something Extra

Most local florists also have a wide range of unique gifts or hand-made treats for when you want to include a little something extra with your floral gift to mom. From candles to boxes of chocolates or sentimental knick knacks, check out the gifts section from your local florist. For other ideas on what you can send with a bouquet of flowers to mom, think of artisan baked items, her favorite wine or tea, a gift basket of various food items, or the best gift of them all — a flower subscription service where she will receive a beautiful bouquet of flowers every month!
