Beautiful Bouquets Subscription: Mixed Flowers
A**.
Treat yourself!
After having flowers for nearly two months (birthday and anniversary are a few weeks apart), I missed the splash of life in my dreary windowless office when the last of them died. As with anything else, I headed to Amazon to look for a solution. Bloomsybox looked like the perfect match and was offering a discount. I purchased a three month subscription and received my first bouquet a couple of weeks later.Despite being in the middle of a winter storm with sub zero temperatures, the flowers arrived in excellent condition, with just some bruised guard petals on the roses. I was impressed with the mix of varieties and colors. While the roses started to die a few days later, the rest of the bouquet held up well. Every few days I trimmed the stems, changed the water and removed any dying material. It was nearly four weeks later before I finally threw away the last of the greenery.My second bouquet arrived on time and in even better condition than the first. The roses in this arrangement lasted a solid two weeks before they started to droop and three weeks before enough had died that I threw it away. The photo is this second bouquet at two weeks old.My third bouquet was scheduled to be delivered over our Christmas holiday but Bloomsybox let me delay the delivery so I’ll be receiving it after I return to work.While it may be a bit of an indulgence, I’ve loved having fresh flowers in my house office and plan to continue to treat myself periodically. I would unequivocally recommend it as a gift to any flower lover in your life.I only have one minor complaint. The description and their website say you’ll get care information with the flowers and I didn’t. While it was easy enough to look up the flower varieties and care online, it was a little annoying to expect to have it included and then not get it.

50% of the time they arrive wilted or damaged.
Got this subscription for my GF. She was more disappointed in the condition they came half the time. You could tell the flowers were once beautiful but they just can't survive extreme temps. Had bouquets show up frozen solid and wilted from heat. OH well. Canceled the subscription after six months of trying. Three of the six were immediately throw out. Do yourself a favor and take pictures immediately if this happens or you're SOL with Bloomsybox.

Beautiful, and no bugs or wilting
Got this subscription as part 1 of my wife's birthday celebration. I was a bit apprehensive, based upon some of the other reviews re: bugs/spiders in the box and/or wilting/browning of the flowers.I have to say that my experience was fantastic. The flowers arrived in a well put-together box, and although there was no coolant of any kind used, the flowers were in great shape and mostly closed up. I followed the instructions and cut the bottom 1-2" of the stem, put them into a vase w/ water and the plant food, and they looked great.This morning, and today, they look even better. Opened up a bit, and they are more fragrant than most roses I've purchased in the past. They appear to be a bit fresher than store-bought, which is interesting considering they shipped from S. America.So far, I'm very impressed, and my wife is thrilled. Looking forward to the next delivery, and will update this review if anything has changed. Very happy.

Good value
These were not the best quality. Some of the flowers were wilted/brown edges. But they were still beautiful and a good value. Compared to the high cost plus shipping few of the other companies. Not to mention they arrived early. My mom is in a rural community so her flower deliveries are also late by at least 4 to 5 days.

Incredible quality and beauty
I started my subscription to BloomsyBox Monthly Roses Delivery in September 2018. It is May 2019 and I have absolutely no intention of canceling my subscription. Month after month I am amazed by the quality and beauty of the roses my mother receives all the way from Ecuador via FedEx. She always receives at least 12 roses per month, but sometimes receives up to 24 roses and they are always the same large blooms, not tiny or even medium sized blooms. Yes, there was a mix up one month when I received the fresh cut flower bouquet instead of roses, but I contacted customer services, they apologized profusely, provided options to correct the issue and acted swiftly to ensure I was completely satisfied. I was extremely impressed. Mistakes happen - we all make a mistake now and then. It’s how you handle your mistakes and correct issues they have caused that shows your character. I am extremely impressed with BloomsyBox and intend to be a subscriber indefinitely.

Arrived in critical shape, hasn't gotten any better
I had ordered this because the date it said it would arrive was 5/27, which is my daughters arrival date. So I figured what better way to set up the house than with these nice looking blooms, on the Amazon page, anyway. It said it would arrive on 5/5 instead, which meant hey, good, it can be a Mothers Day gift now instead. It actually arrived on 5/4 instead, and I am pretty sure its a left over or returned item. It came in horrible condition out of the box, and worse, it did not have the plant food it said it would in the instructions. Secondly, I went out to buy some so I could see if I could resuscitate these blooms, and alas, I could not. It has been 2 days and they look just as bad and not even blooming at all, they are simply drooping. I cannot believe how horrible this experience was, including how slow their customer service (not amazon's) has responded to this issue.

First bouquet was lovely
First I am known by family & friends as "The Flower Girl". I have loved flowers all my life & that's why I decided to try this subscription out. I was super pleased with the first bouquet but the second one was very low quality. I immediately wrote to them & sent pictures of the poor quality of the flowers. There was literally only seven flowers that I could use and the rest was all filler greens & they were wilted at that. They did send me a replacement bouquet and it said just that on the card "premium". Why can't they all be premium, isn't that what you're paying upwards of sixty plus dollars for?This replacement bouquet is quite lovely and has twice the amount of flowers so I'm satisfied but still uneasy if I want to continue my subscription.
