Calyx has been my preferred flower company for almost 10 years for all events and occasions, and even though they were not what they once were, I still ordered flowers for Mother's Day with a Saturday delivery, feeling safe with an order made 2 weeks ...

Without a doubt, one of the WORST consumer experiences I have ever had. I purchased a year of seasonal baskets (you're supposed to receive 4 over the course of a year) for my mother as a Christmas present. I called Calyx and requested ...

Happy Easter -- it's a little late in coming but as I sit here and think about the Easter flowers and Mother's Day flowers which I sent to my mother-in-law last year, I cannot help but think, I hope that people take heed if they're planning on sending ...

While the products from Calyx and Corolla are excellent and their selection beyond compare, I have had my order misdelivered when I order on their site. It seems the address book selection I entered was ignored and the delivery address defaulted to the ...

My husband ordered the "Year of Bonsai" for my b-day. Besides the very steep $550. there was an additional charge of nearly $200. for shipping. We both called and requested a delivery for the first week of each month. Customer service was awful! Someone ...

This company bills itself as a having excellent horticultural material but has such extremely poor customer service that I would never order from them again nor would I advise anyone else to do so. I ordered flowers on the web site and sent a card with a ...

I have bought Calyx and Corolla flowers online and via the telephone for years, probably totalling about 16 orders in all and shipped all over the US. People are more likely to write a bad review than praise a company, so I thought I'd add in my ...

The quality is not superior to other alternatives as promised. In fact, after several attempts I have found that the quality was actually inferior. The final straw for me was when they blew a delivery on Valentines Day. All that they offered was a...

I discovered recently that Calyx & Corolla has a very irresponsible attitude toward the health and well being of those who produce their roses. Employees of rose growers in Ecuador are regularly exposed to huge quantities of pesticides, however rose...

I ordered 2 dozen long-stemmed Queen Anne roses for a friends's birthday. She was absolutely delighted! The roses arrived on time, and each rose was in perfect condition. The grower even placed each rose in individual water vials to ensure that they...

I was a loyal catalog customer of C&C many years ago, but the last two orders failed me miserably and caused me personal humiliation. One order arrived late and the flowers died in 2 days, the other never showed, but a broken vase...meanwhile the...

I placed 3 Mother's Day orders that totaled over $400. Each was for "a season" (3 months) of orchids. Later, after much prodding, I was told from each of the recipients that most arrived limp and died w/in 2 days.
I was able to see one of the...

When my mother died on the East Coast in December 2000, my sister and I decided to hold her memorial service in late January 2001, to give us time to get organized from 3,000 miles away. We both went back to Bethesda right after she died, but there...
