Ordering flowers/plants online...?

Has anyone ever ordered flowers online?





I want to send a plant (not fresh cut flowers) as a gift and want to order it online. (i.e. 1-800-flowers, proflowers, virtual florist, etc.)





Have you ordered online? From where? What was the quality? Do you recommend that site?

Ordering flowers/plants online...?
We've used 1-800-flowers.com. I think that it's good: reasonable cost and deliveries have always worked out. You could also contact a florist in the area that you want to have the plant delivered and order "locally" online. We have also done this and it worked out fine as well.

Reply:as a florist, I am telling you the truth here.





Your best bet is to call your local florist, or if you live out of town and need to "wire" flowers to someone, get on the internet and locate a flower shop in that area.





Most if not all flower shops will take an order using your credit card.





Do not make the mistake of putting a middle man (like 1-800) into your final sale, it will only make the costs go up.
Reply:Go to your local florist shop. They can arrange to have a live plant arrangement delivered just the same as they can arrange to have cut flowers delivered.





Good luck with your shopping.
Reply:I have found the best way to order plants/flowers is to call a local florist directly, in the town in which the recipent lives. The online ordering places seem to have lots of charges added on to the actually price of the plant and you never know what you'll get. However, if you call a local place you will just get a delivery charge. And they are much more likely to make you what you want, not just what is seen online. And local businesses are usually much more pleasant to work with than online order companies. Just go to a place like dexonline.com, type in floral and the city and you should get a list of local shops. Good Luck!
