It is always a pleasure to receive fresh flowers and to have them delivered to the door by Serenata makes it even more special. The Serenata website says “Serenata Flowers is an online florist that has been selling and delivering hand-crafted flowers since 2003, as one of the first direct to customer online florists. Serenata Flowers’ mission is to connect our customers to the people they love through the art of floristry. We want to make it quick and easy to order fresh, beautiful, and affordable flowers, all sent with free next day delivery across the UK”.
The Serenata Flowers Kind Heart bouquet arrived in a brown cardboard box with the flowers tied with a turquoise satin ribbon and looked so exciting. I knew to expect the delivery so was looking out for them, however, I was a little surprised when the delivery driver knocked on my door as I had been told that they were letterbox flowers. Always keen to check things out, when the driver had left, I popped outside to see if the box would go through the letterbox, but found it was too big. My letterbox is a standard size, so, I was disappointed that the packaging didn’t fit.
Getting into the package I was very pleased that the included leaflet explained that the flowers may look a little tired, flat, or floppy after their journey as when I opened the box, what I saw was immediately a bit of a let down. The contents did looked rather limp and sad, however, after reading the very helpful included information, I was reassured that this is perfectly normal. Thank goodness for this information! I took out the blooms which consisted of 2 pink roses and 2 white roses, 3 pink tulips, 3 white stocks, 3 lilac September flowers and 1 stem of green mini pinto and a sachet of flower food. The Flower Care Instructions advises how to keep the flowers happy by adding the contents of the flower food sachet to water, mix well and put into a suitable vase. Then trim the flowers by 2-3cm, remove lower leaves and arrange and enjoy.
The flowers were all in bud, so as the information explained, they would open up over the coming 24 hours. I am not an experienced flower arranger, but the composition of the bouquet seemed to lend itself to making a pretty display. I put them in my hall away from draft and direct sunlight as directed in the information and waited for them to perk up. By later the same day they looked so much better and the following day they were really back to life. Over the next couple of days they just got better and better. Each flower opened up to a full bloom and looked very fresh. The overall effect was a stunning display which I was delighted by and the delicate perfume from the stocks made them all the better.
Being able to order online and be assured that the flowers will be delivered the following day is such a great idea. It makes giving flowers such a simple process and one that I would be more than happy to recommend to my friends and family.
I am giving a score of 4/5 for Serenata Flowers only because they did not fit through my letterbox. Everything else about them is fully deserving of 5/5.
