There's one thing I've found about sending flowers. It has to be the right ones at the right time. There is a general understanding about what kinds of flowers mean what, so when I send red roses, I want it to mean love, and when I send white roses, I want it to mean friendship. When I send mixed colors... I'm not quite sure what that means yet, but I'll get it eventually. My point here is that I am grateful you get everything, every order right. There was one time when I meant to send white roses and the place sent red. I mean, is that right? To this I say NO. You should know that your efforts are appreciated. (Brian P., Benton Harbor MI )

I admit I have a problem about this. I am out of control. Flowers sent to people as get well presents who have nothing but a common cold. In almost all cases, the flowers last much longer than the illness. But it's so easy and it makes everyone feel so much better, even when they're feeling miserable. This year's flu season wasn't quite as bad as last year, but still many people got flowers from me just because they weren't feeling well. It's just something I do that makes me feel good and helps them feel better. Thank you.(Andrea U. , Monessen PA )

Your flowers made a very happy day for my daughter go seamlessly. Thank you so much!(Stuart Woods, New York NY )

I'd like to think that I was making my daughter happy when I sent flowers to her on her first day at college, but I really suspected that she was embarrassed by her mother in front of her dorm-mates. It was a little of both, I guess. She called to say that she really enjoyed them, but she asked if it was OK that she told everyone they were from her boyfriend. *sigh* There's only so much a mother can do. (Margo E. , Holland MI )

My mother was recently sent one of your flower bouquets for her 55th birthday. It was stunning to behold, and made a wonderful day that much better!(Kerry Dobbing, Nashville TN )

I was amazed at the sheer amount of choices for just Sympathy on your site. They are all so lovely and wonderful. I especially like your white baskets. Don’t take this the wrong way, but I hope I never have to use too many of them. One brother in the hospital was enough.(Pauline S., Spartanburg SC )

I wish more companies would have the same kind of attention to detail that you have. I am amazed at the quality of the flower arrangements you send - and I’ve sent a number of them now.(Frannie S. , Round Lake Beach IL )

I recently ordered a number of flower bouquets from you, and I wasn't exactly expecting them all to be right. Well, not only were they all right, they were all exquisite! I got more comments from the folks I sent them to from these flowers than from any of the other gifts I've sent to them over the years. Thank you.(Melanie G. , Pascagoula MS )

My fiancee and his friends, for some odd reason, decided to take a cross-country trip to California and back. Just to remind him why he's coming back, I decided to send flowers to him at each of their stops along the way. I sent a total of eight bouquets of yellow flowers, four over and four back. I know it completely embarrassed him in front of his friends, but I figured if he was able to withstand them for that amount of time in that situation, he was the right guy. He was the right guy. It took a lot of coordination to get it all right in the right places at the right time. Thanks for getting everything to where they needed to be.(Galen I. , Bangor ME )
