Flower Deliveries - Any recommendations?

Has anyone any thoughts on who is best for flower deliveries for a special occasion. I've looked online at M&S, Sainsbury and Tesco and it all looks pretty similar on types of bouquet and prices, all of which are fine.

However, I'm most concerned about the reliability of deliveries and quality when the flowers arrive. Does anyone have any experiences on who is best.

Thanks in anticipation.

    I would usally check out the online Yellow Pages for local florists in the area you intend to send them to and use one of them.
