If ordering from an on line company, make sure you either don't mind or know if the flowers come pre-arranged. Some do and some don't. After a few years of my hubby ordering on line Valentine flowers, I had to tell him that it wasn't as much fun to get a cold box at work and have to open it and make the arrangement myself. (I was really really sweet about it - I'm not ungrateful or anything - I just didn't want anyone to give him a hard time about it. He had no idea it came that way.)

haha that's a good point. I'm sure most people have no idea that they will come this way!

I use 1800flowers. I always see these ads on msn for $10 for this or that. For Christmas I sent my mom a dozen roses for $10. She said they were beautiful.

Dad also ordered her flowers and paid up the butt and they were half dead and didn't come in a vase.

ssshh don't tell dad, we didn't want to hurt his feelings. He tried and it's the thought.

I gottten flowers from 1-800-flowers my boyfriend sent my a dozen pink roses from them 2 Valentine's Days ago, I was surprised the flowers lasted for almost 10 days and looked beautiful. I've also ordered flowers from ftd.com I sent them to someone so I'm not sure how long they lasted, but apparently they were really pretty when they were delivered. It was a dozen tulips.

We have used pro flowers for the past two mother's days. We have also used costco. They both did a good job. The flower do arrive in a big box (already arranged) and have to be placed in the vase.
