Local Las Vegas Florist, VIP Floral Designs, prepare for Mother’s Day on short noticeLAS VEGAS (KLAS) — Flower shops around the valley are gearing up to not only open their doors to customers but to also make sure they have enough product for Mother’s Day weekend. The COVID-19 pandemic has taken its toll on businesses across the valley, including florists. “That was a hard time, a really hard time,” said Adelina Sdrasnei, owner of VIP Floral Designs. “We are going to be here even after hours if they need us.” Mother’s Day is one of the biggest days for Strasnei’s family business. As we enter Phase 1 of the state’s recovery plan, she is happy they can open the front shop just in time. “We are going to allow just one customer in at a time,” Strasnei said. She says they have hundreds of orders and expect more. Some other flower shops have stopped taking orders.
