We've had two nominations this week for the Readers' Choice Best Florist from happy customers with strong recommendations. Thank you!

The nominees: A Secret Garden Floral Design and The Hen 'N The Ivy. Both business got props from our readers in Monday's post about the contest. We are adding Heinen's because the supermarket has a floral department where you can buy fresh floral bouquets.

The Hen 'N The Ivy's listing in our complete business directory has two reviews and three customer ratings, which will help in deciding a winner. Feel free to leave a rating or review for the other two nominees!

In judging, we'll consider the business's reviews and ratings in the Avon Patch local directory, as well as comments and poll votes. Our contest rules are in the PDF at right.

Be sure to vote! The poll will close automatically at 5 p.m. on Friday, April 27. Look for a story announcing the winner on Saturday, April 28.
