Las Vegas is home to many ecommerce businesses offering online ordering and local pickup or shipping. In addition, brick and mortar shops are starting to open this week for curbside pickup. Here are some ideas for last minute gifts to snag for mom around town.

Most moms love flowers and petal expert Miss Daisy uses premium high-end blooms from around the world. Each arrangement is hand-crafted at the Miss Daisy studio on Desert Inn Road by an all-female design team. Arrangements start at $45 and are available for delivery or pickup.

These creations can be shipped anywhere in the U.S., or delivered to Summerlin with an order of $50 or more.
