Flowers convey the deepest thoughts and feelings words cannot.  From an anniversary, wedding 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 Sumner, IL not having a toll free telephone number, a local telephone number with area code is listed.

Ordering Advice:
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.
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.
