There are countless Moms in the world, but only one of them is yours. And that means that on May 14, you need the perfect flowers for Mother's Day - after all, only the best will do for this amazing woman. She is a counselor, nurse, storyteller, teacher, coach, confidante, and best friend, all of which qualify her for recognition and gratitude. But it is the love of a mother that makes her the most beautiful woman in the world, and on Mother's Day, we celebrate this very special bond.
The Many Faces of Mother's Day: Beneva knows that while motherhood is a calling, not every "Mom" is biological. We recognize the women who have stepped in to fill a void, whether it be a stepmom, an adoptive or foster mom, a grandmother, or a family friend. This day is about anyone who loved you and raised you - and we honor them all! Read More about Thanking Your Mom on Mother’s Day »

"If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader". - John Quincy Adams
There are many inspirational leaders in our Sarasota community, but few can influence as many lives as teachers and nurses. And although they have chosen very different professions, they have a very important thing in common - their heart to pour themselves into the lives of others. In May, we are given the opportunity to honor both of these special groups of people. Beneva has seen the impact that beautiful floral arrangement can have in making someone feel appreciated, and we look forward to helping you to let your favorite teachers and nurses know just how much they matter to you!
