I recently ordered some "Get Well Soon" flowers for a remote coworker, as he had mentioned to me…read morethat he'd be having surgery. Since I wanted to ensure they were fresh flowers, delivered in a vase, to arrive on the day of his surgery, I decided to order in advance directly from a local florist versus the 1-800 online option. I found Augusta Florist and ordered on their website. Unfortunately for my coworker, the surgery got postponed, TWICE! Fortunately for me, I ordered directly from Augusta Florist and was able to call them both times and request a cancelation. They refunded me the entire amount both times, without hesitation! The third surgery date actually happened! My coworker got his surgery! But I forgot to order the flowers!! I had been so busy/caught up with work that it just slipped my mind. The day I realized it (this past Monday), I went online and ordered right away. If you order by 1pm, Augusta Florist can deliver same day. I submitted the order shortly after 11am and just before 1pm, he messaged me saying the flowers had arrived! WOW talk about fast service. I chose the "Locally Grown in Maine" (Deluxe) bouquet and it was gorgeous!!

When the world is ugly and scary, I was looking to brighten a family members day. I reached out to…read moreHopkin's and told them generally what I was looking for. With expertise and professionalism they talked me through what would work best within my budget and still get what I was looking for. They then took the idea and created a beautiful, happy, spring bouquet with so much meaning behind the flowers used. Thank you and I will be sure to use Hopkin's again.

I am copying and pasting my remarks from another site, including the lies the owner posted in…read moreresponse to my original review. BE WARNED! EDIT TO RESPOND TO OWNER - I am BEYOND appalled at the unprofessional conduct of the owner of this business. I received the NASTIEST voicemail message from him in response to my original review which was neither rude or overly negative and did not in any way deserve the harassing phone message he left. Let me clear up a few outright LIES in his response to overcharging a customer. First, Sir, I am from Maine and I had my brother do the drive yesterday to make sure I do not put falsities online such as you have just done. It is in fact a 16 minute drive from your shop to my mother's house, not 40 minutes. Laughable. Secondly, I did NOT order AFTER you had finished taking orders on Saturday. MORE LIES. I ordered before noon and originally inquired about hydrangeas and was offered the 8 inch - by the way ANOTHER LIE - the plant was 8 inches not 10 as you claimed - when I asked about the Hydrangeas the very nice young lady (so sorry she is forced to work with a crass thing such as yourself) said that you didn't have those available and offered me the 8 INCH PLANT and told me orders were being taken for a few more hours if I needed to think about it and callback. Lastly, Do Not EVER call my phone again! You are COMPLETELY unprofessional and the personal attack you launched on me was TOTALLY uncalled for and COMPLETELY assinine. Had you called me and attempted to leave a polite, professional message explaining your side of things in a civil manner, I would DEFINITELY have changed my star rating to 4 and edited this review to say how lovely you were. As it is now I changed my star review from 3 to 1 and would give ZERO if it were an option. Please expect to see reviews from me on EVERY SITE ON THE INTERNET warning people that you are completely senile and that if anything honest about your price gouging is reviewed people can expect to be personally attacked and harassed. The BBB will also be notified and a complaint lodged. You can not go around talking to customers the way you did to me. Furthermore, an 8 inch (AGAIN NOT 10 INCH) hanging petunia basket from ANY local florist or greenhouse retails for roughly $25 to $30, not $50. You jacked up the price for Mother's Day and acted like a donkey's ass when you got called out for it. Disgusting. I ordered a floral delivery for my mom for Mother's Day today. As I live in NY and my mom in Augusta, I looked for a local florist and found Hopkins. I opted for an 8 inch hanging petunia basket and was floored when I was charged $50 bucks plus a $10 delivery charge, BUT I do understand that I ordered last minute for the holiday so I assume that's the reasoning behind essentially doubling the price of the product, even though I probably won't order again due to it. It was delivered within hours and the staff was friendly. 1 Response from the ownera day ago When you called late in the day we took your delivery even though deliveries for the day had stopped . It was a 20 mile round trip and took more than 40 minutes to complete. We did it not so much for the money but to make sure a Mother gets something on her Day. We have many Mothers & Grandmothers working here in the 66 years that we have been in business & we have a soft spot for Mothers.Your Mom received a beautiful 10" flowering pot that sells for $50. plus $10 for delivery. This is the price everybody pays whether you live in N.Y. or across the street .This is not a chain store plant wilting beside the lawn tractors. This is a florist quality plant that was delivered within 1 hour of your phone call & presented to your Mom. This is tremendous service & I am insulted by your remarks . Gary B Hopkins

With regard to selection, we weren't expecting much because of the time of year we went, but with that being said, the plants they did have were pricey (based on the receipt). Probably wouldn't come back.
