I was impressed that I received a call right away to confirm that was not a mistake (thank you because you never know these days if someone has stolen your credit card or that you hit the back button and ordered twice by accident). That was much appreciated! And it was nice to know someone is at the store to assist if you need human interaction. And as one of the items was sold out, she recommended a suitable replacement and without hassle, the item was substituted. Delivery was prompt and products were received in good condition. So... I will definitely order here from now on.

Well, last weekend I figured I'd do some adventure-shopping which led me to this little hideaway. Once you open the door, you'll be surprised by what you find. Unlike the pretty unremarkable exterior, the inside is kind of adorable with a section dedicated to festive teddy bears greeting you at the door. It's all very 'country kitchen' but that's a relief when you don't know if you're walking into a flower boutique or a total dive. Staff were friendly, helpful, and quite lovely as I checked out some of their premade bouquets and pretended for a minute I could come up with something unique from the mix-and-match selection. Spoiler: I couldn't. So I walked out with a nice glass globe holding some stones, watery greens, and a Gerbera daisy for $20. Modern, simple, and a nice way to celebrate a dose of Spring in the middle of February!

This reflects another review and might even have been why I chose Janet's flowers- someone said…read morethat they usually send "teleflora" selections but chose to go with the "designers choice" and they were very impressed. And other people mentioned the freshness of the flowers. I sent my mother flowers (ordered from NYC actually online) and I AM SO IMPRESSED. All I said was that she "likes pink" and they made the most beautiful arrangement. I have photos on my phone so I may come back and attach them but if you are hesitating- ORDER FROM THEM!!! But I may have also benefitted from ordering early for mother's day (delivered on the Friday/today).

In effect, they had cut down about 8 full bushes and mature trees to use as firewood. Oh, it was on. Fuming that we now had a very clear view of their litter-strewn yard, we headed out to Lakeland to see if we could recover what once was a beautifully treed-in hammock oasis. Both of the employees working there that day were aghast at our situation, and more than happy to help us fight back. They made so many helpful suggestions on what types of shrubs to get and what to avoid for our area. They informed us on how to plant and maintain our new tree line. We left with several new bushes, and even some berry plants so that I can enjoy some fresh fruit from my patio next season. They also gave us wonderful tips on where to find some naturally grown sapplings to grow our own Maples. Their wonderful service helped us turn our day around. Thanks to them, we've foiled our neighbour's plan to make more room for, what we can only assume, their growing 1989 Mustang car part collection. We'll have our lush backyard back in no time thanks in no small part to Lakeland.

As a child I LOVED going to Lakeland Plant World, especially at Christmas time because of their whimsical winter wonderland. More recently, I've enjoyed visiting in order to buy plants - some of which have been investments of both time and money - $100 tropical trees anyone? Lakeland has everything, from shrubs, evergreens and perennials to shovels, soil and garden gnomes. In the summer, perusing the outdoor assortment is lovely, with lots of rose bushes in bloom and bees-a-buzzin' - plus, their employees are oh so knowledgeable and helpful. A great botanical experience!

I'm not big on shopping so this task becomes tedious and onerous at best. To make matters worse, most souvenir shops are boring and tacky. Fortunately Maine Heritage is an exception. Sure it's filled with crummy t-shirts, refrigerator magnets, post cards and a plethora of stupid and tacky items. But it does have some interesting jewelry, books, and rather cool and useful clothing. The best part is that it is one large room which means you can move around without bumping into other people looking for crummy souvenirs. Plus it has some nice decorations and nautical things to look at . The store is located right on the boardwalk which makes it very convenient and has great views of the water, islands and ships. Just a short walk to get to the maritime museum or other cool things. Sure the Marine Heritage Store is a touristy place filled with touristy stuff. But if you need to get some crummy t-shirts or other touristy items it might as well be in a store with a cool water view. A nice place to buy a crummy t-shirt

Bouquets looked amazing two days later when we boarded the plane for NY. Amazing. In the end, they came in $80 under my budget max....so impressive.
