Provided by YP.comNot only is Pat the owner, designer and delivery driver in many cases, he knows his loyal customers by name and they love him. He will custom design for you or follow a picture or use your vase or let you come into the greenhouse and pot your own plant, all at very reasonable costs. The shop has some stems available for customers to help themselves and be creative in making their own bouquets. They will beautifully wrap them for you with clear plastic and a bow and you can have a pretty presentation at any price range, I made one for $6, and got a free slice of soap.
I overheard a conversation about a woman from Arizona sister just had a Baby girl, her first after years of trying, It was a Saturday afternoon and none of the florists could deliver before Monday. He looked at the flowers, decided with the customer the colors and types of flowers chose a gorgeous vase and created and delivered the most elegant arrangement, it must have stood 2 foot tall full of pink and white varieties. There are often Free Flowers by the front door and lots of local donations are made by this small family florist. There is also a handmade natural soap shop housed witihn the flower space called Natural Mystic Inc. It is the most greatest smelling place to set foot into and gifts of all kinds can be found. Free soap smaples were available also, Pumpkin Spice was freshly made and cut. A

Provided by YP.comI have been a customer of Washburn Flowers for a number of years. I have found that I get consistently excellent, personal service from the florists - both when I call and when I stop by. Even when I've called for last minute service, they have been friendly and courteous, and the flowers are always excellent quality. Their prices are also quite reasonable, and I always feel that I've received good value for the money.
As an example, I needed a wrist corsage for my teenage son to give to his date today. I called early afternoon, and they were able to make a very nice looking corsage and have it available before they closed so that I could pick it up. The presentation was excellent, and they didn't charge extra for last minute service.

Provided by YP.comI asked very specifically for fresh, tight, pink roses to be sent to our daughter at ISU for her birthday. She got fully opened pink roses. The first time I called, they said they would replace them. They didn't replace them and I called again. I was then told that they were open because they were better quality roses—and that they were delivered on a hot day. I didn't care. I wasn't happy because they did not deliver what I asked for. At least they got the color right.
