My best friend sent me flowers as a thank you and I was confused to get a very flat box.
Turned out to be genius! Flowers that go through the letter box
Had never heard of them before, but all the heads came individually wrapped in expandable netting and the flowers were in perfect condition.
Still got them over 2 weeks later, admittedly had to chuck the lilies as the were looking a bit sad after a week but I'm really impressed with the company and will definitely use if I need to send flowers.
There was also a little box with butterfly biscuits in with the flowers.

I must confess I was expecting the OP to be a one hit wonder, it's unusual to get a word of praise in the mail order flower industry!0

I know! But nope, I'm a very regular poster who was very impressed.
The flowers are looking a bit sad now, I really need to hoof them out.
Just checked a photo I took of them and they were delivered on the 28th of January, think I've got my money's worth out of them.The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt.Bertrand Russell0 -

Love the fact that you can choose no lillies as my mum really does not like them.
Might get her subscription for mothers day.

I've seen these advertised but was always unsure of the quality if they came through the post - I had visions of them being all squished and misshapen. Might have to give them a go for Mothers Day!0
