Connecticut Flower Shop - Mothers Day double orchid plant

Twice my husband bought me flowers from CT Flower Shop and both times the flowers were nearly dead…read morewithin 24 hours. The first time I didn't say anything because I didn't want my husband to feel bad. This time, for Mother's Day, when the flowers were a wilted mess within 24 hours I decided to write to the shop and send photos to give them an opportunity to make it right with a refund or replacement, particularly since my husband spent over $180 to have this arrangement delivered. (By the way, the arrangement is appallingly overpriced at $144 and my husband prepaid a hefty delivery fee and an additional very large tip of $20). Although she has promised to send another arrangement today to replace it, she had the audacity to say next time I should follow the instructions and give it water because she claimed there was no water in that vase when in fact it was 3/4 full of water still. The photos provided in my email were close-ups of the wilted flowers and didn't show the vase. I couldn't believe how insulting her response was, trying to deflect blame on the customer. I sent her a response with an additional photo of the full vase of water.... did she think a bouquet of flowers was going to drink nearly half-gallon of water in 12 hours since delivery????? We regularly give businesses second chances, often more, but when a business blames the customer without evidence/justification that's a deal breaker for me. I told my husband just now that he should never use that florist again. I'd rather have no flowers than get poor quality, overpriced flowers from a place that would insult customers like this. Follow up -- in a subsequent email response to me when I had told her that I didn't appreciate her insulting comment, she accused me of refilling the vase after the fact and claimed that my original photo proves it, and refers to me as "triggered". I've added a photo of this communication. And, the first two photos I had attached to this review are what I had sent her (not the one focused on the vase which I sent her after she insulted me). I'm adding to this review a duplicate of the one photo I had sent her and I've added a notation pointing to the water line in that photo - the photo she's claiming shows there's no water. Can you imagine an arrangement drinking over half a gallon of water within like 18 hours LOL. Her behavior in this situation is appalling. 5/13 @ 12:37pm ET: Adding my response to the florist's comment below: She has been repeatedly rude. After making crazy accusations and calling me triggered in email, I told her to not bother sending a new arrangement and instead to send my husband a refund. She was given the opportunity to make it right with my outreach and she chose to be incredibly rude and insulting and direct blame at me rather than just graciously taking accountability like a professional would. After her repeated insults I decided I prefer to not have her come to my house at this point. I've never had to write a bad florist review in all the years my wonderful husband has had flowers sent to me at least 3x/year...till this terrible encounter with this rude woman.

Everything is expensive these days but it was worth the smile and joy that it brought to a good…read morefriend.

If you're looking for a place with a HUGE assortment of all different kinds of plants for every…read moresituation, this is the BEST place I've ever been. Ground covers? Easily 25 options. Shade plants? At least 50. Hostas? Probably all of them! I was so excited with the options that I spent 2 hours going from one new plant to another. Petunias I'd never seen before. All the special, unique plants you'd have to visit 4 other shops to find. Yep, it's here. More importantly is the exceptional service you'll get here, especially from Carl. Ask for him. He generously spent said 2 hours with me, helping me find just the right plants for my specific needs. He is highly educated in all things plants and was an expert adviser. I will never go anywhere else, after having gone here once. He was a real pro and even loaded it all into my car. The grounds themselves are inspiration enough, but if you are going to do any kind of planter gardening, you MUST visit. A woman designs all of their planters and they are unlike anything I've seen. Just spectacular in every way. I bought a few statement trees and some small plants for my pots and all have done very well. Perfectly healthy and ready to thrive. Worth the modestly higher price to me, no question, for the selection, education, and superior quality. You won't regret going!

One of my favorite nurseries. Everyone is so friendly and full of wonderful suggestions when you…read moreneed assistance choosing plants/trees/shrubs for your home. We like to get bouquets here as well, and each time I'm blown away with how beautifully they arrange them. Plus, the location itself is fantastic- gorgeous views of the Farmington River.
