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!

Designing wedding bouquets from a distance, with florists you've never met....challenging right? 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!)

The Flower Shop recently moved to a new space on Barrington Street and I can't wait to see what it…read morelooks like when they've settled in! They're still figuring the space out, but they have some beautiful succulents, cacti and other small green plants out for your purchasing desires. They had some of the most beautiful plant pots I'd seen waiting to be shelved as well - so I am VERY excited to see what they bring in. The retail space only has the one window at the front, but it feels bright anyway. There is a lot of warmth in their space with natural woods and a stone or granite counter top (I didn't pay that close attention, just got a general feeling). The ladies running the shop are so nice, I look forward to coming back once they get fully set up.

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.
