This floral shop is like family to us. My husband has chosen arrangements from them for years. Now, they choose for him as he is completely blind. Sometimes he just calls them and they deliver specials as if he had picked them out himself. Not only that but after a delivery, they have even given him a ride back into Story City when I was gone. This business is more like family than business.

A delivery fee AND service fee along with regular tax made my order $12.00 more. Expensive
Monica's Reply:
Date: Oct 08, 2020, 12:12 pm

We appreciate your feedback. We are sorry that you felt that the fees were expensive. The $4 delivery fee covers our time and expense to deliver. In this instance the recipient wasn't home during our regular business hours so we delivered at her convenience as we didn't want to leave them outside all afternoon. The sales tax of course gets paid to the State of Iowa, and the service fee is what the website charges to cover the credit card processing fees. This is not paid to us, and you can always call us directly to avoid additional fees. Hope this helps explain the charges.

Was pleased with all over service, you were out of Gerber daisies but used roses that opened and were beautiful! However when I was able see the bouquet I sent to my daughter a few days later (Sat. AM) I was a little disappointed to see that the purple iris flowers had all died already and for the price did not feel bouquet as full as I'd expected from picture on web sight.

Thank you for your review. We are pleased to hear you were happy with our service. We try very hard to replicate the order exactly as shown on the website, but when the order is placed for same day delivery sometimes substitutions are required. For home and office delivery we design our bouquets all the way around, while the online photos show you ALL the flowers facing the front. We are known for long lasting bouquets, but some flowers just don't last as long as others. Any spring bulb flower like iris, tulips, daffodils, are short lived in comparison to other flowers like classic daisies.

Thanks for your order and review. We do our best to reproduce the bouquet as close as possible. For this order we had 3 of 4 flowers shown in the correct color (gerbera, stock & alstromeria) but did substitute the spray roses. Due to price fluctuation on flowers our online store prices reflect the higher price we may face due to availability. We were able to add more flowers to the bouquet (rather than 3 stems of stock shown we used 5, etc). Every order is filled to the full value, we have no way of refunding part of an order without cancelling the entire order. We appreciate your business.
