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 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 Yonkers, NY not having a toll free telephone number, a local telephone number with area code is listed.

Liatris:
Common Names: Liatris, Spike Gayfeather

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!
The best advice to remember is to keep the order as general and open as possible.  Because flowers are usually better in some seasons and not others, it is wise to allow the florist to pick the types of flowers used so they can give you the best quality.  Some flowers, such as roses, carnations and chrysanthemums, are available all year.
