    I received friendly, helpful service when I recently ordered flowers for my daughter. The…read morearrangement contained the flowers I had requested and were fresh and colorful. Included was a box of maple flavored shortbread cookies. My daughter was so happy with her gift. I would use this florist again.

    I brief disclaimer: I don't know the first thing about flowers. I can't give this review based on…read morethe quality of a stem or anything like that. This review is based strictly on service. Recently I felt the urge to purchase flowers for my girlfriend. Generally I don't like the idea of flowers as a gift; they are quick to wither and seem a little expensive for such a short term gift, but she likes them so I knew I would have to give in eventually. I stopped into Barrington Florist on my lunch break and had a chat with one of the workers. I told her I wanted flowers (very specific, I know) and she began to ask questions only an expert would ask: What's the occasion, what are her favorite colors, what is your budget, etc. I had no idea there was such a science to putting together a bouquet! After I gave her a little information she suggested some nice options at a price I expected to pay. It's not the cheapest thing in the world, but it's definitely worth it. The Barrington Florist is not greatly located and I wonder if many people know it exists deep in the lower levels of the Bell/Aliant building. It's also really crowded and somewhat over stocked, but I guess that means you're just more likely to get what you're looking for. I'm still not totally sold on the idea of flowers as a gift, but if I'm ever so moved to pick some up again, I know where to go. And because I'm sure you're all wondering, yes, she loved the flowers and yes, I am the greatest boyfriend on earth.

    You can easily order online - very easy process, except that I wanted to send two different…read moreproducts to one person. So I made two separate orders. 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!

In…read moreaddition, the wedding flowers were a gift, so I was designing them sight on unseen from my friends getting married. Tracy at Dean's Flowers spoke to me on the phone and by email until we nailed down beautiful beautiful flowers. They lasted over a day - we had to pick them up the day before the morning wedding because we transported them to Grand Pre on the North coast. 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. If you live in Halifax, are getting married in Nova Scotia, I highly recommend Tracy and the team at Dean's.

Every time I have called, the staff have been so friendly and accommodating. I have made requests such as 'unconventional arrangement, in a vase', 'something with lots of color and, oh, can you also add some chocolate?'... Last week was my M.I.L's BDay. I called mid afternoon for 'a planter arrangement' to be delivered that day - the lady I spoke to on the phone explained how many varieties they could fit in for what price. I truly appreciate great service and I feel I get it every time from Dean's! M.I.L called that evening to express just how beautiful the planter was. Thank you Dean's. You'll be hearing from me again soon (since Mother's Day is this Sunday!)

By 11 AM, our…read morequasi-inebriated neighbours, whose backyard abuts ours, had chopped down the lovely natural property dividers. 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!
