I’m in Ireland I want to send a bouquet of
flowers to a relative in the UK.
Budget approx £60.

Any recommendations or any to avoid ?

Always Bloom and Wild.

Bloom and Wild are lovely. I use them because the letterbox flowers means I don't have to check the person is going to be in that day. They sometimes look a bit tired when they first arrive but they always perk up really quickly.
Never had a bad bunch from them, but one time when I'd sent a bunch and others had complained about the same bunch (but ours was fine) they automatically contacted me and offered a voucher for the same price, even after I'd told them ours was lovely.
I sent the extra bunch to someone who deserved them but would have felt guilty at me spending money on them, so a full win all round.

We use the Flowwow service, which offers free delivery. I like their Instagram and Pinterest accounts , and admire their mission to support local businesses.

I've started using The Blossomist (www.theblossomist.co.uk) after a couple of bad experiences with some of the florists listed. The bouquets always look exactly like the pictures, worth a try if you want to order online.

My friend ordered me M&S flowers. They delivered them to the wrong house. Whoever got them (along with the treats in the package) did not return them so I didn’t get my birthday treat 😭 It was very disappointing. M&S refunded her but it wasn’t the same as getting a gift and bouquet on my birthday.

Bloom and Wild flowers are my go-to. They are gorgeous and very reliable as a company. That’s who my best friend and I use now (we always send flowers to each other).
