Flowers are particularly useful for those who have forgotten when the day of the day is actually celebrated (little tip: It’s always the second Sunday in May) and who are looking for Mother’s Day gifts at the last minute so that they don’t go empty-handed stand in front of mother’s door. If you know your mother’s favorite variety, you can’t go wrong.
