Baltimore Area Florists Work To Deliver Flowers, Gifts For Valentine's Day

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- It's been a difficult year for businesses- but many owners have been excited for Valentine's Day.

People can't visit family or give the usual hug this year, but they can send flowers.

"I've seen a trend for more flower and gift sending, maybe more, there's peaks where it peaks out, there's a lot more, you can't see your loved one, so send them flowers, send them a box of chocolates, send them some balloons!" said Duke Psoras

Psoras, the owner of Flowers By Chris in Baltimore, said his suppliers have been affected by the pandemic after they had to throw out a lot of flowers.

Now, they're starting to catch up from the loss, even though production is still down about 30%. And it's not just flowers they offer.
