    Melinda creates beautiful arrangements and welcomes the chance to do something out of the ordinary. She's incorporated personal items I've brought in, to make something unique for a special person. I try to give her enough time to work her magic!

    I would be completely lost without Flowers by Melinda! You can always count on Melinda for whatever occasion comes up. Lately I have been taking advantage of her creative and delicious fruit and gourmet baskets. I sometimes even bring in items to add such as bottles of wine, lottery tickets, gift certificates, etc. She makes it looks like a work of art and then delivers it for me. I have had many events at my home and in other places and Melinda comes up with unique floral arrangements. One time I was having a party at my house in the fall and she did a gorgeous arrangement in a pumpkin. Another party occasion was a going away party for my husband who was going to Iraq. Melinda came up with a very appropriate floral arrangement with sand and flags. At Christmas time my brother who owns Capone Landscape has Melinda send out pointsettias, boxwood trees and fruit/gourmet baskets to some of his customers as a thank you. Hands down my family and I would not shop anywhere else!
