After reviewing the orig oak photo, it is extremely disappointing to have all carnations and only three roses (should have mainly roses!). It is not a customer problem I feel when the inventory is low due to other demands of arrangements, if this was the case a notification of the situation would be the right thing to do instead of just sending all carnations. Not good customer service

Jen, thank you for taking the time to discuss this with Hailey today. With all of our arrangements that are displayed online, there are inventory changes that sometimes need to be made to honor expectations with delivery. Your arrangement is filled to the value you paid for. If it we were to have larger roses it would have been very sparse as 1 stem of a larger rose is the same price as the spray roses we did not have. Therefore our designers made the choice to supplement out for you so that it would achieve a full look that was similar to what was displayed online.

Hi Darla,
Your arrangement was $65, with the total after tax and delivery coming to $81. We discussed at length the size of arrangements versus budget, and I did tell you this would be a small arrangement as the next size up starts at $85 for the flowers only. $50-80 is small, again, as mentioned multiple times. The image you have reviewed is the exact item that was sent.

Hi John,
The arrangement is designed all around, so you're not seeing half of the flowers in this photo. The roses provided are garden roses, very fresh and closed. They arrived from the farm yesterday. Garden roses are larger and more long lasting that regular roses. I guarantee you this will last, please trust the professionals.

Hi Rebecca,
The arrangement itself was $85 and the photo you received has all of the same flowers as pictured online, there were some color substitutions, but it absolutely does have the same number of stems. Hope this helps!

Hi Gail,
You have reviewed an order from March of 2022. I'm not sure how that happened, but you clicked an old email. The photo of your basket was sent to you at 9am on 11/08. Hailey, who helped you with this order, will be calling you!

Great picture, but the flowers did not look like the picture. I was very disappointed and for the cost, truly a LOL. And when I was on the phone placing my order there was people in the background laughing and talking so loud that I told the girl I was speaking with to tell them to shut up because I couldn't hear her because of them.

Hi Ann,
That photo is of your order, so that is exactly what your flowers would have looked like when we delivered them to Sherwood. I cannot speak to what may have happened in between the office there and the graveside service, but that is how it looked when it left our care. I do apologize for the loudness on the phone, we are a very small and busy shop, so sometimes it's impossible to avoid the background noise. Please call us back to discuss further!

Not satisfied with the product. Called to have them make it more like the photo on the advertisement and was told it “followed the same recipe”. It doesn't look half as nice as the online photo. Casper was short with me, didn't really care that I called and hung up promptly without offering to make anything better. He knew I was unhappy and did nothing to change that.

Hi Angie,
Thanks for chatting with me! As I mentioned, the arrangement is made to value from the same recipe as the photo online. Usually we find that it's the angle or lighting difference from the web photo as all arrangements are handmade so not identical even when following the recipe. All I did was answer your questions, you did not ask for it to be remade. I assumed since you did not ask for anything to be done that you were accepting my answers to your questions. If you would like it remade, please give us a call back.

Hi Glenn,
Of course you're welcome to shop wherever you choose, but you will find for the price that our quality can't be matched. While kroger flowers will be much cheaper, they are old and may last a couple days or less. Our flowers are direct from the farms and are guaranteed to last at least 10 days. Please take this into consideration when ordering fresh cut flowers.
Have a nice day!

Hi Brian!
Pictures can be deceiving, it is much larger than it looks. The best was to imagine it is to think of the size of a win bottle. Those are both about the same height and the arrangement is about 3x the width. That is a medium size at $85! Hope this helps!

Hi Shannan,
That is indeed the $80 version, as pictured in the basket. The $40 version is half the size in a metal container. This version also has 5 plants while the small has 3. I think what you're seeing is the calla lily is slightly shorter than the one pictured online, but that will continue to grow for your recipient! Hope this helps!

Hi Ninon,
As we discussed, lily of the valley is a special order flower and you did not give us enough notice to obtain those. Lily of the valley is also 5x the cost of this arrangement. We discussed that lilies and anything blue will be a premium price. You stated you wanted all lilies with blue accents in a size small enough to use as a centerpiece on a bar table. There is not much more we can alter to fit those requirements. I've left you a voicemail and we will hold the order until we hear from you.
