Flowers are a classic mom's day gift for a reason: Who can say no to bright spring blooms? However, not all arrangements are created equal. To really wow mom, order a contemporary arrangement from UrbanStems crafted with flowers from only Rainforest Alliance Certified farms. Try a bright and elegant bouquet such as The Firecracker (pictured above) or focus on favorite blooms, such as the pink cloudburst of The Peony. To buy: Urbanstems.com

Does mom have a sweet tooth as well as a love of flora? Consider gifting some dried-flower shortbread cookies from Alma Kitchen. The gourmet cookies come in flavors like lavender, lemon thyme, orange blossom, and pistachio. All are hand-decorated with edible flowers and herbs. Not only are they as lovely to eat as to look at, but a portion of each sale funds the planting of a tree. To buy: Almakitchenco.com

Is mom the practical sort who enjoys live flowers, but then immediately feels bad they'll have to (eventually) be thrown away? Ward off the mom guilt with a plant gift that truly keeps on giving, such as this herb-filled windowsill garden from Williams Sonoma. This rustic, reclaimed wood crate with rosemary, sage and thyme will keep growing all summer. To buy: Williams-sonoma.com

If you'd rather have an edible flower arrangement, consider a bouquet of fruit cut like flowers, dipped in chocolate, and beautifully arranged. One option is the Delightful Daisy Treat from fruitbouquets.com; the chocolate-covered daisy pineapples with grape centers steal the show!. To buy: Fruitbouquets.com
