Mother's day

[bla]

Anyone knows any reliable online flower stores for mother's day? Any answer would be appreciated !

Don't use Flowers.com. They did not deliver my order one year and I never recouped my money.

 

I always call the nearest local florist to my mother's home and order direct from them.

Thank you so much for that! I really appreciated it! The thing is I don't have any chinese bank card. Do you know any local florist who accepts visa or master card?

Someone will be along to soon to help.

 

BTW, many Chinese ladies think it's a waste of money to spend on flowers. What will yours think?

To be honest, I feel the same way. But I think it is always nice to buy anything for the loved ones, especially for parents. Don't you think so?

I never had any problems with them.

Like most of the guys here said your Tai Tai will say Bu hao Tài guìle! La Gong why do you buy me that is dead for?

Welcome to TIC. This is China.

My wife loves to get flowers. Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, despite my protestations that the flowers are dead and will soon be dried up, that the holidays are invented to get us to spend money, that I prefer to show my appreciation in other ways.... she wants flowers. Usually I'll go the day after and get her some at 1/2 the price.

 

As for the OP, I think he or she was looking to purchase flowers for the Mother, so I hope that is out of the question.

 

I agree with the OP that flowers could be a nice gesture. From reading here, one wonders how all the fresh flower shops in China are staying in business....

Yep, my wife also says not to buy her flowers because it is a waste of money. When she came to the US a little over 2 years ago I met her at the airport with a dozen roses. She still has those sitting on the mantle all dried up! Every once in a while I will buy her some roses and she has placed them all over the house, not sure if it is to prove to me it is a waste of money or what.

But for a mother in law, I don't think I would send her roses because she would probably wonder why waste money. I would have maybe sent her some vitamins or something to show interest in her health.

I know it's an old thread but I have sent flowers twice with these people and they have proven reliable both times. The first time, I emailed them directly to make sure it had been delivered, and they replied in a timely manner confirming such in a personal and friendly tone. I plan on using them again for this Valentine's day.
