Never Send Flowers in a Box Again!

Gentleman: Have you ever bought your significant other flowers from a large online florist, only to learn from her that they were dropped off on her doorstep in a box for her to arrange herself?  Many people fall into this trap when buying flowers online.  They see a beautiful picture on a slick website, and somehow miss the fine print that explains that those flowers won’t really be delivered like that.

Sure, this business model allows the “big guys” to sell flowers at much cheaper prices than real florists.  They are shipping direct from a flower distributor, cutting out middlemen (including mom and pop florists).  If your gal has a creative edge, she might enjoy doing the cutting and arranging of her Valentine’s Day flowers herself.  But most women haven’t taken a floral design class, and her arrangement will most likely not end up looking like the picture you saw on the website.

What happens in the winter when the recipient is not at home to sign for the flowers? FedEx leaves them on the doorstep to freeze until she gets home.  With Flowershop.com, a real florist makes the delivery and leaves the fresh arrangement with a neighbor or tries to deliver later.

Bottom line: Which makes her feel more special?  Having a florist deliver a gorgeous arrangement (designed by a professional) to her office that can be simply placed on her desk and enjoyed?  Or a FedEx guy delivering a box that she brings into her office, cuts open with a knife, brings into the office breakroom to fill the vase with water and try to arrange the flowers herself so they look as pretty as her co-worker’s?

Flowershop.com works ONLY with real florists around the nation to expertly design and hand-deliver gorgeous arrangements.   Don’t ever send flowers in a box again!
