Flower subscriptions

Does anyone have a fortnightly/ monthly flower delivery subscription? Just want cheering up in these times and think it would be nice to have a regular delivery. Any recommendations?

Some of them are extremely expensive but my cousin has a wholesale flower business and they offer mystery flower boxes, for £20, I ordered a few of these last year, for myself, amd for friends/family to cheer them up during lockdown and they were such great value for money! It was also fun not knowing what would be inside, (always seasonal but other than that no clue).
Here is a photo of one box I got - this is not the whole box as it filled two vases!

I get Freddie’s Flowers ,once a month .
They always make me smile ,the flowers last for weeks and the customer service is excellent.
They send instructions on how to arrange them and they always look beautiful.

If you don’t like your free box you can cancel , but sadly for me I am addicted !

I can understand how you feel but economically (if that concerns you) I dont think they work.

I think it's better to buy some flowers from the time of year, the daffodils will be out soon and they are very inexpensive or maybe set up some bulb bowls that will take you through the whole year and come out every year.

Of course this may not be what you want

I don't subscribe cos I think they are very expensive but I've used bloom and wild for birthdays, mothers day etc the letterbox flowers and they've always been well received and although the look not at their best at first in a day or two they look lovely and last ages, far longer than a bouquet bought in Marks or a supermarket... You can easily pick up a discount code and once you've used them they do send discount codes regularly especially say around valentines, mothers day, Easter etc

Oh thank you for this, I always buy fresh flowers with my weekly shopping and it's something I've missed now I'm having delivery. I did have a pot of hyacinths but that's on the way out now, in fact yesterday I was searching for a special offer I had when I recommended Dave but he had deleted it!

I’ve just signed up to Freddie’s flowers with a discount code giving 50 percent off first two boxes. I certainly can’t afford the box every week but I thought it was worth giving it a go and maybe once a month but might be nice. It’ll be good to have something to brighten things in lockdown.

I might give the mystery box which loopylooloo suggested a try as that seems very good.

I subscribe to Freddie’s Flowers. The blooms are really beautiful and are accompanied by details of what the flowers are and an arrangement suggestion. They last for weeks.

Like yu I buy fresh flowers every week and have done for ever. Maybe because our family home was always filled with fresh cut flowers but I know both my sister and I never not have fresh flowers at home. It is on my shopping list as much as bread and milk. Funny old thing I am off to the local florist later to se if they have any bowls of hyacinths as my support bubble got some recently form there and they are magnificent
