    Half-dead tulips less than 48 hours old
    Karen M.

    My husband bought these tulips from Colony Florist on Tuesday February 13th for Valentine's Day and this photo is what they looked like by Thursday, February 15th. In addition to selling my husband half-dead tulips, they charged an obscene price for them. Taking the tulips as they were on the day this photo was taken, I went to Colony Florist and asked to speak with the person who sold my husband the tulips. After first listening to the employee insisting there was "no way to know," I reminded that they could look up the proof of his purchase by the credit card number, which Alma, the person representing presumably the person who either sold him the flowers or knew who did, finally agreed to do. I then asked whether this was typical of their quality, to which she responded that it was not, offering me "tulips from the back" to replace them. I asked rather that the cost be refunded to my husband's card.Alma stated that the owner, Susan, was the only person who could authorize this and took my information, stating that Susan was out of town for a couple of days and that she would be in touch upon her return. At no point did either present employee of the store apologize for the quality or the experience and I had to actually prompt Alma whether they wouldn't want to take a photo of the tulips to show the owner. It has now been nearly a week since Valentine's Day and no one has bothered to follow up nor refund my husband's card. Several years ago was the last time we used Colony Florist and the experience and cost was similarly dismal, although we never posted a review. I regret that we gave them a second chance and would never recommend this florist. There are many excellent options in the area, including grocery stores, that offer quality, provide value, and stand behind their materials.

    The staff was very friendly and helpful. The floral arrangements we received for our wedding were beautiful.

    My friend from work surprised me with a beautiful bouquet of flowers. She had them delivered to the church I attend, but the church was closed on that Monday. The florist retrieved my phone and explained what happened. I told her that I wouldn't be at church until Wednesday. She was very accommodating and even told me she would do another arrangement with fresh flowers. The arrangement came out beautiful, I received several compliments!

    My mother passed away unexpectedly, last week, and several of the standing sprays, plants and vase arrangements all came from Colony Florist. I did order the casket spray and two matching easel sprays from them and asked for pictures once they were completed (of which they gladly obliged and texted me). I am VERY picky and wanted to make sure they were just right. In addition to those and some green plants, a couple of friends sent two exceptionally beautiful vase arrangements. It was such an extremely difficult day but being surrounded with all of those lovely flowers helped make it more comforting. A wonderful job was done by all.

    4 day flowers dying already.

    Really not impressed. Received these flowers on am of 4/4 and today they look dead. Today is 4/8 9:13am. I've changed the water since I received them so they aren't dying dude to lack of water. They are just not fresh, never were. I get better quality flowers at Randall's across the street from this florist for a fraction of the price.

    Marriage, the final frontier. These are the mishaps of the married guy, Dolph. His continuing mission: To explore strange new things with which to pamper her. To seek out new "honey do's" and "I love you's". To boldly go where no man can go but me. My mission today was to begin acknowledging our anniversary. Beam me up, Scotty! What shall I do? Flowers, of course. Because I couldn't remember the last florist I used, I looked up florists in Yelp. I only found five that had been reviewed in the Houston area (perhaps others were hidden behind a Romulan cloaking device) and they were all parsecs away from her work place. I know that it's like making an alliance with the Klingons, but I reverted to Google and landed on a local florist - Colony. I called them and got a very pleasant woman on the phone. I told her the occasion, gave her a price range and asked her to help me design an appropriate bouquet. Since only Vulcan women are logical, I figured my bride wouldn't mind if I splurged a bit. The lady on the phone was very helpful. She suggested several blossoms we could include and ensured that roses were prominent in the display. I took her lead. In a mere minute, we'd co-designed a solution and she assured me she could get it to my wife at warp speed in less than an hour (before we met for lunch). Like a phasor on stun, they delivered a stunning bouquet and, for the moment, I will live long and prosper. The bouquet really was beautiful and my wife was gushing in a highly illogical way.

    Horrible. Absolutely horrible. Do not use this florist! Arrangement was not at all as pictured. The florist gave an awful explanation and no opportunity to correct the situation. I paid for the premium arrangement, and all she said was "all of my money was there". That doesn't make up for the absolutely horrendous flower selection. I didn't pay $100+ for hydrangeas that have been dyed neon blue.

    NOT AS SHOWN I selected the most expensive "deluxe" arrangement for its beautiful pink and peach roses. Instead I got a sparse white and mix of non-roses. Florist made poor explanation of an excuse that the photo was only a "one-sided" flower arrangement, so arranger decided to disperse with more green fillers. Furthermore, they insisted the "white roses" were "cream" which baffled me. Florist did acknowledge and promised to give partial refund. Now dealing with an extremely disappointed mother.

    Valentine Florist - I know...it's crazy, but it was for someone that lives in a community called Oatmeal.  So, I had the card read "sending love from home".

The floral arrangements he created for my tablescape were absolutely stunning and truly elevated the entire space. Every detail was intentional, from the lush florals and beautiful color palette to the way the arrangements complemented the candles, linens, and place settings perfectly. Paul has an incredible eye for design and balance. The florals were elegant, full, and luxurious without feeling overwhelming. They photographed beautifully and made the tables feel warm, romantic, and upscale. Guests couldn't stop complimenting them. If you're looking for someone who understands vision, execution, and quality, Paul is your florist. His work speaks for itself, and I will absolutely be using Valentine Florist again for future events. The quality and value of his florals are impeccable!!! Highly recommend! -- Stephanie
