Flowers for Elkhart, IN

Elkhart calls itself the RV Capital of the World, and for good reason — the recreational-vehicle plants line the CR-6 corridor and much of the county works in or around them. Before the RVs it was band instruments; Elkhart still builds brass and woodwinds, and the city grew where the Elkhart River spills into the St. Joseph. That river fork shapes the delivery map. Downtown and the 46516 core cluster near the water, with the historic Nappanee Street and Riverside neighborhoods close in; from there the routes fan out to Concord on the south, Dunlap toward Goshen, and northwest through Osceola toward Mishawaka and South Bend. Elkhart General on West Franklin Street draws the steady get-well traffic, and sympathy orders route to the funeral homes and to Rice Cemetery north of the river.
