Girlfriends score more flowers than mothers. O RLY?

At least according to reasonably circumstantial evidence based on the Alexa traffic rankings of online flower vendors.

When comparing the traffic of three major online florists and one gift site, Tiffany.com, I notice something interesting: moms don’t make out as well as sweethearts. For all of these sites, there are the predictable spikes around holidays. Christmas is a natural, but it’s not nearly as popular as Valentine’s Day or Mother’s Day. What perplexes me is that the spikes are higher on Valentine’s day than on Mother’s Day.

Does this mean then that girlfriends who are also mothers receive more flowers than anyone else?
