Flowers delivered, where to buy them?

I am wanting to order some flowers for a friend to be delivered. I have over £40 to spend from a collection. Can anyone recommend somewhere to get them from?

Thanks,
Nevermind the dog, beware of the kids!

    chell ive ordered through teleflorist (via pigsback) and they are beautiful bouquets....also used interflora etc - im sure they are all the same and just phone up one of the florists in the area you want the bouquet sent. :)

    M & S and John Lewis both do beautiful flowers - you can order on line.

    I ordered Mother's Day flowers via Quidco via Value Flora via someone on MSE.
    Mum was delighted with them and the box of chocolates that came free! They have special offers on all the time and having used them before I would recommend them. HTH

    Have purchased JL & M&S flowers before and would add Debenhams to that list too.

    Ive used Tesco.com and OH was very pleased ... although other people have said they weren't happy. I mainly think thats with big order times like Valentines Day, Mothers Day etc.

    Valueflora also apparently very good!

    HI

    I've used rainbow flowers in the Channel Islands and they often have offers of 50% extra free on. Quite long lasting as well. Also try post-a-rose.com but as the name suggests they supply mainly roses.

    Bunches.co.uk I use them all the time and the flowers are beautiful. They are delivered by post (although there is an option for same day delivery on some bouquets) but they always arrive very fresh and last for ages. If you spend over £16 you get a free box of chocolates with them, and there are lots of options for little extras.

    are worth a mention. Very pleased, last time we used them - although prices appear to have crept up towards similar providers.

    M&S also v good - use them if no specific inclination elsewhere - as I have Shares!!
