Normally use Charles by Design but he was too busy and recommended Granny Hazel's Florist in Eastman near the funeral home that had my beloved friend. He highly recommended Granny Hazel and I needed to hear no more. I spoke to her about the complaint below to learn what happened. She said she had told "the complainer" that the roses "the customer" demanded would NOT hold up but "the customer" insisted as if she knew more than a florist who had been in business for 65 years. It is common practice that if a customer is "impossible," replacement is expected with the charge up front and you just proved that was the right charge or you would have certainly put her at a great expense over profit. Overcharging is also a judgement call in trying to get those who WOULD OBVIOUSLY bring harm to a business to please go some place else. Excuse me, but I'd say she's a pretty good judge of character and a smart cookie - right on target. If everyone were like "that customer," her business would not be possible at all. Everyone who uses Granny Hazel loves both her and her work. But to harm a business like that when the fault was your own? Well, let's just say you need Jesus, ma'am. Granny Hazel does FANTASTIC work if you turn it over to her professional expertise. If you are demanding as the complainer below, however, and won't listen to the advice of the florist to start, as if you were one yourself, you will get what you ask for. Sounds to me like you were having a grief issue and owe Granny Hazel an apology for that "just awful" undeserved post. What a horrible person to say such things about one of our beloved and elder community members! Otherwise, I am sorry for your loss. Granny Hazel, however, will not be harmed by your malice if I have anything to say about it. You had one bad experience because your ears were closed to florist advice and then turned on one bad experience to destroy a business. Let me tell you something, it is not Granny Hazel that looks evil in this picture, darlin'. I suggest you rethink what actually happened. Did she not tell you those roses would not hold up? Oh! You somehow failed to mention that part, huh? read more

Please do not use this florist. We paid almost 1,000.00 for a casket spread. After the funeral we called 3 Atlanta florist, another in Macon and one in Eastman and all quoted a price of 450.00. We even told them the exact flowers that were used and how many. Even the funeral director was appalled at how she had taken advantage of us. Any one that is that willing to take advantage of out of town guest that are grieving does not deserve to be used as your florist. Don't get me wrong the flowers were pretty, but the fact that we were so over charged and the owner of the shop was so rude made the whole experience bad. The flowers did not even last the whole 2 days of the visitation and funeral without having to be replaced! I urge you to do research before(unlike us) and use another company for all other floral occasions. read more
