You Pick: Needham's Favorite Florist

April showers bring May flowers, and if Sunday's weather and the forecast for the rest of the week are any indication, the first of May should arrive in full bloom. To celebrate this harbinger of spring, we turn this week to the topic of florists, asking readers to vote for their favorite florist in the lastest Best Of Needham - Readers' Choice poll.

Where do you go in Needham to help mark life's special occasions—whether it's roses for your Valentine, a sunny bouquet for Mother's Day, a birthday basket or other unique arrangement to tell someone they are loved?

Vote for your favorite florist now through Friday, April 27 at 9 a.m. in the poll below. Please add your comments at the bottom of the page—what makes this florist great?—and your reviews to the business listing in the Directory. Because the poll is not scientific, these extra comments and reviews will help Patch decide the winner.

The winner will be revealed by noon on Friday. (Note: Please vote only once per survey, per Patch. See the complete contest rules in a PDF at right.)

The nominees this week include:

• Bridget’s Buds and Blossoms
• Bronwen Flowers
• The Flower Company
• Hillcrest Gardens
• Morrison Florist Inc.
