When out for a night out in Chatham I met Dean Shoemaker who is President of  GrowerFlowers.com who sell fresh cut flowers and gifts over the Internet at www.growerflowers.com. They ship their flowers direct from their greenhouse facilities in both the US and Canada and also have a number of plant and Gift Basket suppliers that fulfill orders in the US .  They offer around 100 Grower Fresh bouquets, 75 Florest Arranged items (shipped by wire service), plus 150 Gift baskets and Unique gifts. Unlike other companies who forward orders to an outside grower, they are the actual grower.

Dean very kindly sent me a sample and here are the pictures taken after Fed-Ex delivered them to my home...

Here is how they arrived

And here is how they looked when the box was opened

Included was a nice wee box of chocolates :-)

And a Greeting Card!

Instructions were included as to how best to look after the flowers

And encouraging you to eat the Belgium chocolates while they are fresh... which I have done :-)

And these are the chocolates

And as they included a vase in the package I put them on my chest in the living room

And a very nice selection to enjoy :-)

They also offer an affiliate program to web sites where they will pay a commission on any sales you generate for them through your site. To test this facility I did sign up for it and the process was very quick and easy and if you click on either of their banners on this page you can order your flowers and/or gifts and I get a wee commission as a result :-)
