INDIANAPOLIS — As Mother's Day approaches, many people are looking forward to celebrations that will likely be different from last year, when so many of us were isolated.
At the Shadeland Flower Shop, business is blooming and the phones ringing non-stop.
“And we have orders through the website, so we're hopping all the time,” said Jackie Phelps.
Mother’s Day is always big for florists, even last year, when the pandemic meant delivery or curbside pick-up only. Phelps said this year feels normal again.
