This place has a lot of nice and pretty flower, they have a lot of hard to find flowers, white rose are wonderful here, and the prices arent that bad, Fast but wont deliver to many place , But you do get a lot for what you pay for and they know thier flowers, great on the wallet ,
Good postive about you. I like it. Good luck.

Birthday flowers and others
by George J.
I received a gorgeous basket of flowers from a girlfriend for my birthday back in June. The roses in the basket were dead by the next day.
Watkins also prepares a weekly arrangement for our office which have to be some of the ugliest arrangements I've ever seen considering the price we pay.
Just got another arrangement today from my husband - again they're kind of plain & unattractive. Lots of filler flowers and I'm sure they were very expensive.
Too many florists in Raleigh to settle for second best.

Beautiful Wedding Flowers
by Ethel W.
While attending my grand daughters wedding I was taken with the beautiful bouquets and how all the table arrangements matched everything perfectly! She told me she was so happy too and that the people at Watkins had been so helpful and creative. I took one of the arrangements home and it lasted and lasted.

Wonderful customer service
by Ruth B.
I was recently travelling when a dear friend passed away. I called Watkins to order a sympathy arrangement but I had no details on the service or location. The sales person researched and called the funeral homes for me, then called me back to let me know my order was handled. Found out from the family of my friend my arrangement arrived in time for the service and was beautiful. Watkins Flowers went above and beyond!

Not the Best Atitude

I have used Watkins florist on two separate occasions and I am inclined not to use them again. I foun d the staff to be quite uppity, and in one case, quite condescending. I had called to order flowers for a funeral service on the last occasion I used them. The flowers were not there that evening so I called the next morning asking where they were. I was told to relax that they were delivered that morning. As soon as she told me that some on in the background d said, Tell her the dead guy aint going no where. Because of that comment I will not use them again.

Georgous Valentines Flowers!
by PupLover27
I am so please with Watkins. I walked in and got help right away. I needed to send flowers out of the state to my mom and I was in and out within 5 minutes! I picked out the flowers she would get in a beautiful crystal vase and added a box of truffles.
Highly Recommended!
Pros: Wonderful people and a beautiful shop!
Cons: don't have any! Watkins is great!

Beautiful Valentine's Day Arrangements
by JMandKM
I stopped by to order my Valentine's day arrangement for my wife and what a selection Watkins had. There were about 15 Valentine's day arrangements to choose from and you could add anything you wanted too it so I added her favorite chocolate candy and a little stuffed animal.
Pros: Great Service and Friendly
Cons: none

Do not use them if you want your delivery to be done on the day you request!!
by catonc
I called Watkins on May 29 to order flowers for delivery on June 4. I was assured that this was no problem and spent considerable time discussing the kinds of flowers for the arrangement and also the reason for the delivery being Monday for a friend opening a new office and Monday being the exact day for delivery. The flowers were not delivered and Watkins said "we over looked your order and are really sorry", then offered to add a few extra flowers to the arrangement and deliver on Tuesday. They called me at 4:59 PM on June 4 to tell me this so was too late to have anyone else get them out today. This was infuriating and unnecessary since they had the order for 6 days. They could have offered to deliver the flowers for FREE on Tuesday, but to offer a few extra flowers is insultling. I have called Fallons and am told that they will deliver flowers to my friend on Tuesday, but sadly I have missed the fun of getting the flowers delivered on the first day in the new office. I would NOT recommend this florist to anyone!
Pros: NONE
Cons: FAIL TO DELIVER FLOWERS AS ORDERED, POOR RESOLUTION OF PROBLEM
