MAKE THE NEW LEAF YOUR "FIRST CHOICE" FOR FLOWERS!!!…read more ... is what's requested in "About Our Company" -- and I must emphatically agree! They DO, as also stated, "go the extra mile to make your floral gift perfect." Shopping online from Maine, theirs was the 5th or 6th on-the-ground real, in-town (vs. online) floral shop I researched, following discovering them here, thanks to Yelp. Nobody offered what was shown on the typical FTD or Teleflora, it seemed. Only, I needed something special for my friend, who'd suddenly lost her husband. Arrangements offered by others weren't right for my artistic friend's elegantly designed and furnished home and tastes, nor the expression I'd hoped to achieve. THE NEW LEAF's, however, were phenomenal. I was blown away! Never had I seen such beautifully designed arrangements -- indeed, "beautiful floral designs" -- which is why I chose them. I selected "Soft Serenity" for the balanced trio of greens, lilac and whites, and balanced artful composition, too -- only to be sad seeing what'd arrived had substituted some yellow and other flowers. Uh-oh... Calling Dina with my disappointment, however, I was kindly offered either a refund or to send again. We worked closely to ensure that softly serene design I sought for comfort was replicated as closely as one can... I'm so glad I did! My friend was just over the moon with superlatives! While the first was nice, the second was absolutely Wonderful, she'd said. And just now on the phone she shared how the arrangement was simply Magnificent. "Wonderful" and "Magnificent" are pretty exceptional descriptors of their designs... All-in-all, a terrific value and experience. I've saved Dina's number for the next time I need something special for my friend in Virginia Beach.

At first visit, Sara and James were friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable. My vague wishes: "she likes low maintenance, maybe an orchid or an arrangement in the $75 range." She offered to create a fresh and unique arrangement in summer colors AND have an orchid dressed so I could choose; she even ok'd pickup outside of their normal hours. Turns out, I ended up needing it a day sooner...and they came through, calling to update me when needed. At pick-up, James said "I saw this peach double orchid and knew it was for your friend." That's personalized service at its finest!

She was given some in the hospital but left them behind, so I was trying to replace them to put a smile on her face. I was greeted by a man as soon as I walked into the tiny shop. I told him what I was looking for & I saw some of the purple flowers in an arrangement they had in their refrigerator. He couldn't tell me the name of the flower. He was guessing. The arrangement that they had included red roses. It was tiny & he wanted $30 for it. I wasn't interested in the roses, so I left. The fact that he didn't even know the name of the flower was an issue for me. I won't go back.

We were juggling several things at home, so her having to leave was just a little stressful. (Plus I think that she had some doubts as to whether her husband could man the ship without her.) Trying to put her mind at ease, I decided to send flowers. Having no "go to" florist in Virginia Beach, I struggled with selecting one. I picked Eclectic Design. Obviously, I needed the flowers delivered to her hotel. Eclectic Design not only provided a beautiful arrangement (the flowers grabbed the attention of the other ladies at the meeting) at a wonderful price, they were more than happy to accommodate with a timely delivery. I even tried to provide a tip for the person delivering. They insisted that there was no need for that. I would certainly use Eclectic Design again when my wife gets called into the office and would recommend them to anyone needing flowers and/or gifts.
