Try www.manilaflorist.com as they offer 10-15% discount for Valentine's Day delivery. Just ask an assistance to their Live Support online on their website to avail their discount. I tried their service for how many years and they did not disappoint me.

Warm Regards,

Amber

Some follow-up on what REALLY happened last year. I decided to go with IslandRose.net as I heard (and later saw) some very, very beautiful long stem red roses. BUT, (yes, there's always a catch) they only delivered in a box and gave her the vase I purchased so she could arrange them. She was disappointed because, "Everyone else was bringing home beautiful flowers and mine were in a casket!!" I'll not make this mistake again, minor in the long run but still.....

I use Philflower.com now exclusively since they have high quality and deliver in the manner that my better half appreciates. Either one is top notch , just depends on how you want them received. Philflower if you want them boxed, vase, or bouquet or Island Rose if you want them in a box or bouquet. Lesson learned!!

P.S. Tahoma, you still haven't cashed that check I sent??? Should I send it again for this Valentines day?

Best wishes to all for a prosperous, healthy and short time apart in this year, 2012!!!

I know that this is a very delayed reaction but I couldn't help but to recommend a florist who has always been very dependable and their flower arrangements are really nice. Just in case u guys need flowers, you can order from Bloomingtales flowers. They are very professional and deliver what they promised. If within Manila, they even can send you picture of the recipient with the flowers u ordered. I thought that was a special touch. U can find them on Facebook or call them at 632 2188989. I always use them to send gifts and flowers in the Philippines and they never failed. Hope this is helpful even if vday is so over. :)
