Happy Mother's Day 2024. Yesterday, we were out looking for something in Greensboro to photograph for Mother's Day. When driving past Fresh Market on Lawndale, we saw this very creative sign that said "MOM" with metal letters and flowers. It was so beautiful, a standout even from the road. The display must have been effective, because so many people were inside purchasing flowers. According to the USDA Foreign Agricultural Service, about 75% of the cut flowers the USA, today, originate in Colombia and the industry has been growing since 1962. Indeed, there were lots of bouquets of Colombian flowers flying out the door of Fresh Market- especially roses.
We have lots of wonderful florists in Greensboro, but by this morning, grocery stores are the best bet for getting cut flowers and home improvement stores for flowers to plant. Places like the Arboretum, Tanger Bicentennial Gardens, and Gateway Gardens are your best bet for taking photos with flowers. And then, there is always the above display that would be perfect for a photo with MOM.
Happy Sunday!
