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). I'm writing this ASAP so everyone knows- order your flowers early for Mother's day (or birthdays or whatever) from Janet's flowers in Dartmouth!!! Thank you!

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!

Excellent customer service…read more This was my first time (will not be my last time either) using Flower Trends Florists as I wanted something local. Using many flower delivery services, you have experiences with being left in the "dark" while waiting for the order to be shipped out, delivered, and hoping that the package gets to the proper location. That stress was alleviated immediately with one simple phone call. A very polite employee (apologize that the name was not asked for during the phone call, this employee deserves recognition) contacted me in the morning asking if; anyone was going to be at the requested location for the flowers to be delivered to, what would the easiest way for the delivery to be delivered etc. Never have I felt such great care about being a customer before. Thank you to the employee that contacted me. Good customer service is very hard to come by, and excellent customer service seems non-existent in today's world. Flower Trends Florists, pat yourselves on the back for having some amazing employees that seem to go above and beyond and exceed customer's expectations. Patrick D

Yesterday, the customer service I received from Flower Trends was completely unsatisfactory…read more I had brought my own vase as I was going directly to the hospital to deliver the flowers to a patient. I asked the staff member if she would cut the stems for me. She agreed but said they would then need go directly into water. This I understood and I asked if she would kindly put some water in the vase for me. Her response was that "this was not something they provided". In a flower shop I was unable to get a cup of tap water? I was quite shocked and said I would just use the water from my water bottle. Her response was a shrug of her shoulders. Furthermore, there was no extra greenery added or a package of plant food. Very poor service for $100.00.
