However, it was the most local florist to where I wanted flowers sent, so I selected a local florist. Like many flower shops, the website was pretty awful and unhelpful to navigate, but I selected a basket of flowers and paid through the website. Afterwards, I received a pop-up saying I needed to physically call the store to complete the transaction. Well, this basically defeats the entire purpose of using an online system, but 'gotcha!'- there was little choice now that I had already paid for my delivery. The person who picked up told me that she would make a beautiful basket but it wouldn't look exactly like the one in the picture. I said that was fine, but could she send me a picture so that I could see what was sent. She also wanted the code on the back of my credit card, which I had already input online. Next day, I received a voicemail asking for me to call the store again- she had forgotten the code from my card. No big deal - this could happen to anyone - but then I asked when I would get the email with the photo, and she told me she had neglected to take a photo. The person I sent flowers to is unable to send me a picture and is in very poor health. Therefore, I'll never know what I sent- the size, the look, nothing. I was pretty annoyed on the phone, because it seems outrageous to never see what I purchased. I plan to send flowers regularly, so not sure if I will call this florist again. On thinking about it later, I wonder if most of the orders that come in are people from afar who also wants pictures sent in. I am surprised pictures are not taken just as proof, and also to know what was last sent to a client, but I guess without a system for doing this, it could take a lot of extra time to take coordinate taking and sending out photos. However, I wish I had a photo to add to this review!

One thing I loved was that they had some medium post-its asking customers different questions. One asked for your favorite book, while the other asked what super power would you like to have. There were more and it was nice to have a fun little thought provoking thing while I waited for my sister to check out.

We ended up buying our pup a new, snazzy collar and a toy fuzzy trout (yes, trout), which he loves! Great little find and we enjoyed our visit!

I have always found Oakleaf Flower and Garden to be my GO TO for anything that I need as a gift and for floral arrangements for dinner parties. I also use them quite a bit for floral arrangements and lovely perfectly edited and unique green arrangements that they do better than anyone, these I send to my friends for any kind of celebration or often as a thank you. My friends tell me that it is an extra special thing to receive something that they have designed. They do an outstanding job and have always felt that they truly understand what service is and is supposed to be. I love their wealth of knowledge on not just plants and floral artistry but on so many other items that they have in their great shop each with its own personal history and fun story. I give Oakleaf Flower and Garden high marks on all fronts from their unique selections, customer service and talent. I always feel as though I have learned something when I leave that shop! read more
