10 Blue Orchid Bouquet,Flowers for Valentine, Mother's Day

These were absolutely beautiful! The picture doesn’t do it justice. I bought these flowers for my daughter for Mother’s Day, and two weeks later they still look beautiful. I would definitely buy these again.

These are SO beautiful!!! Even better than expected.

Very disappointed. I have purchased on two other occasions for gifts and they have been absolutely beautiful and no complaints. This time I sent to my cousin for her 75th birthday and after 3 days they began dying from the top. Amazon did refund the amount I paid, but my cousin only had the flowers for 3 days.

Ordered for my mom for Mother’s Day & they’re almost identical to the photos on here. She loved them! They were securely packaged in the box so they’re not the best as a gift unless the recipient doesn’t mind putting them in a vase and arranging them themselves.

each flowers comes in its own vile,! My sister said they were beautiful and unique

The recipient loved the flowers and said that they lasted for a long time. Beautiful bouquet!

So I will take some responsibility for being the 1diot ordering flowers in 110F heat (probably the mail truck is 140F or more), but I wanted a bouquet for my birthday which is unfortunately in said heat. Nevertheless, this is one of the worst experiences I've had with a mail order bouquet, but probably there was just some multiple bad luck coming together. The bouquet arrived to start with in so-so condition, with some blooms already fallen off. It comes in two bouquets which are wrapped in tissue paper inside a plastic wrap, and each stem has its own water supply tube. There also was a free small vase, and I had my own vase as well. Neither of these vases turned out to be the ideal size or shape for these heavy long stems. The tissue paper was a shredded watery mess, some of the stems already were super wet from spilled water, and blue dye everywhere. The bottom bouquet was in worse condition from the top. I washed both vases with soap and water and rinsed them thoroughly. I filled them with room temp/warm water. I simply picked the paper off the stems and removed the tubes but I see now I should have spent more time rinsing them off. I re-trimmed the ends and put them in the vases. I placed the vases in a 73-82F room with tons of indirect sunlight through the day, but very low humidity where I live alas. I changed the water every other day and rinsed out the vases well each time. The stems looked worse with each day, rather than getting better at first as implied. By day 2, I had to throw out 2 stems because they'd rotted mid-stem. Rather than open up, the top unopened blooms fell off soon. I've never seen this before, but the roots started growing white mold like crazy after about 4-5 days. The stems were shedding blue dye copiously right after every water change. Perhaps getting dyed stems is just not a good idea for longevity. But the bouquet lasted just past a week, which was less than I had been hoping. I don't know if there is something I could have done better like less water or more water. If I do ever try to reorder these again, I'm going to go with multiple vases of a different design because the one than comes with and the book design one I had on hand were just not right at all, one was too tall, one was too lightweight, and a wide vase is a mistake with the particular bouquet.

Ordered the 10 count sapphire orchids with vase. Arrived on time- gift recipient was pleased. Though pretty, the arrangement did not look full like the advertised photo. There is a difference in the 10 and 20 count. Here is a side by side of the 10 count advertised photo, and a photo of the arrangement received on the day after arrival. I will grant some grace as it was the week after Mother’s Day and supplies may have been low.
