This review is long over-due... I must give a big thank you to Abbey and Patrick of Everything…read moreBotanical for flying to my Los Angeles home and transforming the cute backyard, perfect for entertaining, into a backyard oasis! Their vision turned the patio into a lounge; the al fresco dining section into a comfortable fire pit; and narrow driveway into an area that is easier to drive, turnaround, and park in. Their efforts enhanced the overall look and feel of my property, while enhancing the value. Friends commented it looked like a movie set and buyers were so taken by their work, the home sold in four days. My realtor received positive feedback on the backyard from everyone who viewed the property, and the buyer said one reason for their purchase was the backyard. I have used Everything Botanical for many years (both flower arrangements and garden design) and am looking forward to the next project they can work their magic on!

Originally when I engaged the services of everything botanical Abbey took a very hands-on position…read morein planting our window boxes and taking care of flowerbeds and rock garden on our estate. Unfortunately in the past two years she's assigned people who would not qualified. Two years ago I met with Abby and reviewed our plans in detail to be carried out. The only part that I was totally satisfied with what wonderful window boxes. But from there everything went down and in the past year and became a total disaster. Not only plans we discussed were not carried out, I had to call for routine maintenance and the people she sentwere totally incompetent (she acknowledged this). My flowerbeds became a jungle. When the person in charge came a second time after my complaint and I informed her that she has done a terrible job in the past Abby then informed me that the woman was hurt and insulted. She should never have been sent since she didn't know what was a weed. e. I finally terminated this arrangement. It is my belief since she was no longer taking as active a role and leaving the work to others this was the result. I would not recommend her and Everything Botanical. Abby and her husband are lovely people but fell down on the job.

I hate cutting down small bizs but this one takes the cake…read more Just called to order a flower delivery and I was trying to get a smaller bouquet ordered for delivery bc I normally don't like cutting flowers. That's my personal choice. They had also changed their website which Google doesn't show so they had to help me to the new one. I'm sorry if that's my fault that as a business you haven't updated. I placed the new owner on a brief hold and I overheard her tell her assistant that I was a "nightmare." I asked her if she just said what she said and bc I caught her off-guard she says: "uh yes, I said you were a difficult client." I told her I don't think I want to do business with someone with her attitude just hung up. Seems like there's new ownership here. Beware.

I got married in Manhattan in November and we were very happy with Cape Lily's flower services!…read moreSylvia and Cape Lily came highly recommended from a friend, and absolutely exceeded expectations. Sylvia took the time to meet with my husband and I before our wedding for a couple of hours to get to know us and our tastes. She came to the meeting prepared with tons of amazing flower recommendations, a photo collection to look through for inspiration, and a vast knowledge of beautiful color palette ideas and various styles. I'm not a flower expert, and since I was my own wedding planner, I was unsure of what I wanted (to say the least). Sylvia helped us to feel confident in our ideas - giving lots of guidance, but also listening to our ideas and helping us to articulate our vision. Throughout the planning process I changed what I wanted flower wise a number of times. Sylvia was completely flexible and patient and worked with me and my budget. As the wedding approached, she met us at the space for a walk through to confirm where everything needed to go, and to make sure we were on the same page, down to the last detail. I felt completely confident that my flowers would be beautiful by the end of the process. I was right to feel confident - they were beautiful! They captured the essence of my romantic, NYC Fall wedding perfectly. She traveled all over the city the day of to make sure groomsmen had boutonnieres and the girls had their flowers. I didn't have to think about a thing logistically, which is what one wants on their wedding day. Thanks Sylvia, for helping me to have a Pintrest worthy wedding! :)

But after doing a little Instagram research to get a sense of their aesthetic decided that I'd take a chance on Fieldtrip, and it paid off! My friend got a lovely dried flower bouquet delivered to her job in the Bronx on her birthday. And I got to support a local business here in BK! Jenny and team were quick to answer my questions and super-friendly throughout the process. Note: In the past I've had a hard time getting Brooklyn-based businesses to deliver to the Bronx (I completely understand, it is FAR). So was pleasantly surprised that for an additional fee, Fieldtrip was able to make the Bronx delivery happen.

I am a landscape architect, and ordered 600 of their Majestic Mix tulips for a very good client and…read morefriend. As pictured in the catalogue, the mix consisted of mostly pink, yellow and coral, with an occasional lavender or very dark purple. What bloomed was approx. 40 percent black, 40 percent red and a smattering of white. It was the ugliest tulip mix that I have ever seen in my 45 year career. I reached out to them, explaining that I of course was refunding the retail cost of the labor and materials to my client, and asked what they would be doing to make things right with me.
