Readers' Choice: Favorite Florist

Whether it is for Mother's Day on May 13, National Secretary's Day on Wednesday or just to make someone smile, there is no limit to the reasons people buy flowers. 

As part of our next Readers' Choice Poll we want to know where you go to get the flowers. Sure you can buy flowers online or over the phone, but sometimes you just need to go in and see what the shop has to offer. 

Here in Howell we have plenty of places to get that colorful creation from the long established shops to the newcomers looking to make a name for themselves. Some of the florists in Howell also stray off the Route 9 corridor providing their crafts for residents in all parts of town and the surrounding area. 

Voting for your favorite places is easy. All you have to do is:

• Cast your ballot.
• Tell your friends, family, acquaintances, co-workers, doctors, letter carriers and anyone else you know to do the same.
• Use our comment tool to tell us what makes your favorite the best. Is it the variety of flowers they offer to make their bouquets? Is it the way they can find just the right way to send the message you want through their creations? Maybe you like knowing you can get what you need and they take care of all the worrying while you get the beautiful finished product.
• If you think we left one out tell us in the comments section as well.

The voting goes until 9 a.m. Friday with the winner being announced at noon so there is plenty of time to cast your vote. A tie will be decided by which place has the most positive comments and reviews on their Patch Places page. 

Editor's Note: Because this poll is not scientific, it is not the sole consideration in choosing a winner. The winner will be determined by the Patch editor, based on poll results and reviews on Patch Places. Please vote only once per survey, per Patch. Official rules for the Readers' Choice Poll are attached to this story.
