What I ordered for my mom for Mother's Day:
What was delivered:
The hell?!
Okay, okay, to be entirely fair, the florist did tell me that they were out of the dahlias, and I told them to substitute a chrysanthemum or lily or something else big.
But come on.
First, with the colors of those roses in there, I'd have probably gone with a dark pink or red gerbera, not orange. Or yellow spray roses instead of ivory. I dig the pittosporum, but greenery alone cannot redeem this.
Second, that vase is all wrong. The arrangement's shape is all wrong. I ordered it for the subtle asymmetry in a modern vase, but I got off-kilter bud-vase arranging in a ginger-gar vase.
Third, I know flowers open as they age, but it just looks scrawny.
I guess that's what I get for trying a new florist... >:(
