You can end a statement with a Preposition (from ) if it applied, of course,
and even better, you can also end it with an Adverb (today ),as long as you separate them with a comma:

"This is a picture of my son whom I received these flowers from, today".

No comma after from, Tim. Where do you get these ideas? Can you cite us any reference?

Exactly. How about:

This is a picture of my son who sent me flowers today.

A comma before 'who' (and also one before 'whom' in the previous posts).
