Patch readers overwhelmingly picked the Powder Springs Florist, now part of PearTree Interiors & Gifts, as their favorite florist in West Cobb.

In this week's Readers' Choice poll, the downtown Powder Springs business received 94 percent of the vote over the competition—three area Kroger stores.

PearTree owner Kim Kornblatt bought the neighboring floral shop in November from retiring Joe and Barbara Sutton, who bought the business themselves in 1987. It first opened in 1978.

"It’s awesome (being picked as a Readers' Choice), especially after Joe having it for so many years," Kornblatt said.

She said not much has changed since the change in ownership, other than business increasing thanks in part to the hiring of a new floral designer.

"The client base has really been supportive since we took over in November," she said.

Thank you to all the businesses and readers for participating, voting and commenting in this week's Readers' Choice.
