This is my go-to florist in OBX! Dorothy is happy to take on custom orders and is so creative and…read moretalented - the results always exceed expectations. She brings joy and beauty to every occasion I highly recommend her and Bells & Whistles!

Horrible communication from the beginning. That's when we should have walked away. To top it off,…read moreflowers were not ready on the wedding day and despite her admitting she knew the day prior they would not be ready she failed to let us know this. We had friends travel 35 minutes each way to get them during the agreed upon time to find Dorothy was not present and her husband said she was out playing tennis and had no idea what they were talking about. Add insult to injury, on $900 worth of flowers she thought $50 to pay for the friends gas was enough to fix it. Lacks ability to take ownership and say "I'm sorry"- instead she said "life happens and we roll with it." She delivered 2.5 hours after the agreed upon time and flower arrangements were pretty but many went to waste due to the delay. It's not worth the stress on your wedding day, brides beware. In regards to owner response, I'm happy to post all emails and the full signed contract to this review.

Cutest little plant shop in Manteo! If you're in the Outer Banks, it's a must visit :)…read more The couple running the shop was so sweet and knowledgeable, and the selection was good as well.

I almost walked right by this unassuming store but I'm so glad I didn't miss it because it ended up…read morebeing one of the highlights of my vacation! It's a beautiful shop that's got a great selection without being overwhelming. I'm a crazy plant lady - the inside of my house looks like a jungle. But I found soooo many plants I didn't yet have! Honestly, if it were spring and not fall, I would've purchased dozens of plants. Luckily for my wallet, it's getting colder and I try not to buy plants when they have to stay inside for so long. Anyway, the prices are amazing! I typically buy my plants online or from a really expensive local nursery so I felt spoiled by the great prices. I ended up exercising my self control and only taking 6 plants home. The shopkeeper was so sweet and friendly and always willing to look up care instructions for me, which was much appreciated. Since this shop was our first stop of the day, she also held my plants until I was done shopping so they didn't have to sit in the car and fry. She wrapped each plant so carefully and packaged them all up in pretty green bags! It was the sweetest touch!

We have several local nurseries. Manzer's are really nice people. Their selection is everything I…read moreneed at a good price.

It is hard for me to express how happy and grateful I am for the lovely floral arrangement created…read moreand delivered by Anderson's Florist. I live in California and searched for a florist who would deliver to the Outer Banks of North Carolina. This order was special to us because it was a sympathy arrangement and we wanted to convey our sincerest sympathy while providing some cheer. I didn't know exactly what type of arrangement or colors I wanted, but I took a chance by ordering a Designer's Choice Premium Sympathy floral arrangement. I ordered online last night in California time and it was delivered this morning to the Outer Banks! Our recipient sent a photo of the beautiful arrangement and it was far beyond our expectations. Gorgeous flower selections with a beautiful uplifting & subtle color combination, all arranged with style & skill. Again, I am so happy and grateful to have found and selected Anderson's Florist.

If you refund my money, I will be glad to take my comment down. I stand by my review from a delivery that was placed and paid for but no one ever called me or the person flowers were sent to. They did not bother leaving the flowers at the person's home. I paid a lot for delivery. I had to call and ask why the flowers were not delivered. No flowers and no refund.

Our vacation house has the dreaded task of yard work. We like doing the work ourselves because we…read morecan buy our own products. We also make sure the work is done correctly. In the Spring we mulch our yards(front and back) and it's a painstaking chore. Home Depot delivery makes this chore tolerable. This location has an excellent delivery process. Order ahead, choose deliver date and timeframe and viola, the products arrive as promised. An added plus is their communication, a constant update is given via text and phone call. Once the transport company arrived, the pallet was unloaded and the driver was polite and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend this location and their online ordering process.

Today the staff helped me with getting the proper sku numbers for a special order gas hose. I do like their app because it gives me location for some of the items that are hard to find. Parking is easy. I've also purchased mulch here back in the Spring. There is a special pickup area for mulch so don't be confused and expect the mulch to be in the garden shop.

We went on a Friday for strawberry picking, to see the animals and to shop the farmers market. Our…read morekids also enjoyed the play area also. There's bounce houses and a playground. The strawberry picking baskets were a flat rate (which we liked versus other places that charge by weight). It was pretty reasonable at $23 for a bucket and the strawberries were delish. There's also a patio restaurant called the Hive for food and drinks.

Once inside there's other activities to pay for like the monster truck ride, petting farm, corn maze, and other kids activities. The hayride and pumpkin patch are both free. The hayride goes from the parking/monster truck area, to the market/restaurant area, to the pumpkin patch, and then back to the first spot of the parking/monster truck area. I found the fall festival to be really cute and great for photo ops. I really enjoyed each of the different sections of the farm. Decided to get on the monster truck before leaving (9/10); it was my first time riding in/on one and it was pretty fun. To ride was $10 per person. All of the staff members were friendly and made light conversation. I can def see myself returning especially since they also have a Christmas tree farm and a restaurant on site. My overall rate of experience : 9.5/10
