Order Direct From Local Florists

RE: Order Direct From Local Florists Post By Jennifer (Guest Post) (10/31/2006) I agree! I had the same experience as Paula, and will never use 1-800-FLOWERS again! I always send a flower corsage for mother's day, and have been happy with the quality when I call a local florist myself. It is easy to do with the internet. My mother and MIL have both been pleased with their deliveries since I have started using local florists.

I ordered flowers for my mother last Mother's Day with 1-800-florist # and when I called her she told me that the arrangement was the worst she had ever seen. After finding out how much I had spent on the arrangment she took it to the florist that had made it and demanded that they put in fresh flowers to replace the wilted ones and also to add more flowers. I suppose they thought that because it was an out-of-state order that they thought, "what the heck, she'll never know". Unfortunately for them, my mom used to work for a florist and knew what to expect for the price I had paid.
