Have you ever noticed that almost every florist uses the same pictures on their website and somehow they are all connected to Teleflora? One of these days I'll figure out why and how this all works... but in the meantime, since I don't have a go-to florist that I use regularly, I use whatever company is most convenient at the time.
So, when I recently wanted to send flowers to a friend of mine that was staying at the Montelucia, and the concierge told me that they use Garden of England, I went with it...
I was not a fan of the $10 delivery charge, but so be it... I'm told the arrangement was colorful and beautiful... and of course it was a nice surprise for my friend upon her arrival. I'll go direct next time for sure though - there is nothing like a personal touch - especially with flowers!
