Illinois (IL) Florists, Flower Shops & Florist Directory
When you want to send flowers across the street or across the country, our national directory of flower shops and florists will make the process easy. We provide all the information necessary to find a local flower shop and florist that will deliver your floral gift. If no flower shop or florist is available in the city or town you want the delivery made to, we also list florists that are located near and close by. Ordering and buying from the flower shop and florist who will make and deliver your order saves you from having to pay middlemen and all of the charges and fees they access. Plus, you will know what flowers and products are in season and available so you can be fully informed as to what you are purchasing.
Locate-A-Flower-Shop.com® has the perfect FTD and Teleflora flower shops and retail stores for you. We are here to help you choose just the right florist shop. Regardless of what you wish to send, either flowers, roses, plants, orchids, fruit baskets, gifts, candy, balloons or silk arrangements, local flower shops will guide you to make the appropriate flower selection.
Flowers convey the heartfelt thoughts and feelings words cannot. From a wedding, anniversary or birthday gift to a loved one's memorial or funeral, local floral shops can help you say it with flowers.
Make sure to place your order as soon as possible from the florist to be sure of same day delivery. If you prefer, you can enter your order online through the flower shop's Internet web site or if you are in need of help, use the toll free telephone number of the floral shop. For those florist shops in Springfield, IL not having a toll free telephone number, a local telephone number with area code is listed.

Lisianthus:
Common Names: Lisianthus, Eustoma

Ordering Advice:
Make sure you have the complete street address of the recipient. The florist's delivery person cannot make a delivery to "the big white house next to the park" easily. If the address is for a large office building, specify the building name since these types of buildings often do not have easily seen street numbers.
Not all colors are available for all types of flowers. While you can specify the overall color or colors of the arrangement (e.g., spring colors, fall colors, pastels, etc.), it again is wise to allow the florist to pick the individual colors and flowers so they can give you the best quality.
