Shaw Flowers & Gifts

I've only been to this place once so far but I am sure I will come back again and again based on my first experience.

I explained to the lady here where I planned to put the plant and how much light etc it would get. I told her the plants I liked but instead of lying to me and saying these expensive plants would work she pointed me to less expensive plants and explained that they would thrive in the described situation. Sure it was a bit disappointing to not be able to get the specific plants I had in mind but it would be awful to buy plants and have them die quickly.

I will be back to this place because they obviously care about customer satisfaction and they are knowledgeable about their products.

Every doting boyfriend should know a good florist. Shaw Flowers and Gifts is one of those pop-in on the way home kind of places. Whenever I'm there I always see good husbands and boyfriends walking out with post-work bouquets in hand. I'm assuming these clutches of flowers are not for them.

Shaw has a nice selection of house plants as well. In the summer they also have a small garden centre on the side of the building. It's an unassuming little place but worth a visit if you love keeping plants and gardening or you're the good boyfriend type.

Although they have a nice collection of plants, and that their staff is "helpful". But most of their potted plants doesn't have a price labelled on them. So they could charge differently depending on how eager the customer seems.
