Illinois (IL) Florists, Flower Shops & Florist Directory
Our national directory of flower shops and florists make sending flowers to anyone across the street or across the country simple and easy to do. All you need to do is to find a local flower shop and florist in the city or town you would like the flowers delivered to. If no florist exists there, we will list flower shops and florists in other cities and towns that are near or close by. Besides saving money by not having to pay middlemen's fees and charges when you order and buy direct from a local florist, you talk directly to the people who will actually make and deliver your order. Because of this, you will know exactly what is available during the current season and you will know exactly what will be sent.
Locate-A-Flower-Shop.com® lists FTD and Teleflora flower shops and retail stores. We can assist you in finding the florist shop that meets or exceeds your expectations. If you want to send flowers, roses, plants, orchids, fruit baskets, gifts, candy, balloons or silk arrangements, local flower shops have the experience to help you make the proper flower selection.
Flowers convey unique 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.
If you place your order early with the florist, you can be assured of same day delivery. Enter your order online through the flower shop's Internet web site or if you want some assistance, 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 along with their area code is listed.

Liatris:
Common Names: Liatris, Spike Gayfeather
Description: Unlike other flowers, liatris flowers open and mature from the top of the stem downward. Clustered along the spike, they have a feathery look. Various shades of deep lavender are most common; other colors are bluish shades, violet and white.
Statice:
Common Names: Statice, Limonium, English Statice, German Statice, Seafoam Statice, Latifolia
Description: These cut flowers are available in several varieties. English statice carries 1- to 2-inch clusters of calyxes, each about 1/2 inch across. Stems are 1 to 1 1/2 feet long. Seafoam statices have smaller calyxes, arched clusters, smooth stems and no foliage. German statices have small gray bracts that arch backward. English statice calyxes are yellow, white, purple, lavender or pink with tiny white or yellow flowers inside. Latifolia calyxes are white with blue-violet flowers.
Ordering Advice:
Floral designers are very creative individuals. Rather than specifying the precise location of every flower in the arrangement, tell them the overall "look" you want (e.g., round arrangement, loose flowers in a vase, etc.) and let them use their creativity to do something spectacular for you!
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.
