Quality of their flowers is pathetic. I ordered for Valentine's Day and I was embarrassed. Avoid them.

With Valentine's flower there is a risk that your partner will dump you but don't worry as your mum will never do that.

They're not great. I also paid extra for Sunday delivery with a 1 hours time slot, they came normal post Saturday.
Contacted them twice and got no response.

Had some delivered to my daughter on a couple of occasions,she was very pleased with the quality,suspect postal flowers is often the luck of the draw.

Not a bad deal, but pity they are charging £7.99 delivery if you want them delivered Mother Day.

Your always best off sending a nice gift if can't see her. Don't buy flowers that you can't see unless very reputable. Always pay by *PayPal* if do! From personal experience I ordered a large bouquet from **Prestige Flowers** OMG they looked like they had been picked from a swamp! & there was only about 4 -5 flowers, still can't believe it. I emailed dozens of times, rang they didn't care it wasn't until PayPal got involved it was sorted & got a refund. I was so embarrassed my poor Mam :neutral_face:

Why does everyone want them delivering, i live quite rural, my Tesco or Asda is open enough for me to buy some the day before, and keep them in the shed overnight.
And let's not forget most mothers day flowers are going to be for your wife's, they ain't going to be impressed with Home Bargains, but why not just go a steal them off your local Cemetery thats also open 24 hours a day..

well i get flowers and other gifts delivered to my mum as she lives 150 miles away n i only see her a few times a year. so although i can buy some gifts myself and keep them until i visit, it is nice for her to have things arrive for the actual day on occasion!

I bought a bunch of flowers, mainly sunflowers last summer for a friend, from home bargains. They arrived at hers just beautiful, with a free disposable vase. I emailed them to thank them for the lovely flowers and bargain price and a few days later I received the same bouquet from them, myself with a note thanking me for my kind comments! The sunflowers lasted over two weeks, they were great.

Ordered there Valentines bunch and it was not worth it. Weedy thin flowers and lacklustre packaging. Paid 9.99 for it and frustratingly the supermarkets were full of bunches for half that which I could have hand picked. Fortunately I am able to hand deliver to both mother (and Valentine) so the fact they are of posted is of no real value.

Whilst I know the comment about stealing from a cemetery was a joke, this does actually happen. I've had flowers and trinkets stolen from my sons grave. Shame on the person for doing it. Buy from a shop like everyone else.

Daughter sent some at Christmas to people and they were lovely, but got some for a birthday and could have bought much better in the supermarket for less than half the price.
Because when you realize the low quality of something you get for others, it causes embarrassment. It does to me, not sure about others.

Well after being impressed by the Valentines flowers I ordered these. They're absolutely shocking, half dead & tiny. Had to go and get some others instead
