Question about Pro Flowers
Posted on 5/6/14 at 8:59 am

I am ordering flowers for my mom for Mothers Day. I was wondering about the quality of flowers with Pro Flowers. They same way cheaper than a regular, local florist. Is it you get what you pay for? Or are they actually good flowers?

they are what you pay for. I, personally, will never order from them again.

They usually sub it out to local florists anyway. No difference in quality.

I made that mistake once. Not very happy with them.

Find a good local florist. Figure out how much you want to spend. Call local florist and tell them you have X dollars and would like an arrangement for mom. Tell them you'd like to use them going forward.

If you like flowers in a box, go for it

Very hit or miss, mostly miss.

I've used them quite a bit and never had a problem. They are a little pricier but that is mainly because of delivery fees, which is the reason I go with them over a local florist who doesn't deliver. All of my orders have been delivered on time.
As far as quality, they've always lived as long as the flower is expected to live.

Order them from a florist. These will come shipped in a box.
Also they will send you about 3-4 emails every day.

You're better off getting nothing than using them

They were always as good as going to a nearby florist for me. I am in Houston, though, and I think we either have a local Pro Flower storage or they use the florists down the road.
I now use local shops for my wife just because, and either Pro or 1-800 Flowers (for mom who is in LA), and there is no noticeable difference to my untrained eye.

Watch out for any hidden fees. I can't remember if it was Pro Flowers or that 1-800-Flowers bs, but they have hidden fees and take money out of your account monthly without you even realizing it.

I sent some to Italy from ProFlowers after getting gangraped by FTD on Valentine's Day. They were just what I ordered.

I'm always happier when my husband brings home a bunch. He buys them from the Supermarket and I have nice vases.
Sams has fresh, so does Winn Dixie and Rouse has a very nice floral dept.
If you live in another city, find a local florist and order it yourself over the phone.
Personally, I prefer Jo Malone English Pear and Fresia lotion this Mother's Day over flowers. If you know what your Mom wears, you can always order her scent online and have it sent. That way she enjoys her Mother's day present for a long time.

If you're in BR, don't use Heroman's. I had a huge problem with them on Valentines day, posted about it, and it turned out the problems with them were very common

I've used them about 20-30 times over the past few years. They put out a great quality in my experience. The flowers always lasted 7+ days.

I ordered some flowers from them last year and the quality was terrible. I complained and they sent more flowers and those were also terrible. I will not order from them again.
