I'm the kind of shopper that don't know what I want. Walking into Rainforest was a sensory experience. It smelled lovely and visually stunning. Interesting photography on the walls, well designed and functional florist. Staff is friendly and easy going, with a goal to please.
Talk about a ""green"" store, Rainforest is the greenest of them all. Recycled boxes converted into art forms for you to carry out your arrangements safely and without spillage in your car. I've never seen anyone else wrap a lei and roses in ti leaf like they do. When I gave my flowers to my recipient, she was thrilled after receiving many numerous cello wrapped roses and sported lots of leis. In the end, she carried my ti leaf wrapped roses leaving all the cello wrapped ones on the table. I was thrilled.
They also start early and I have used them when needing that special small arrangement for my secretary at 7 in the morning. They will also custom create a look based on the recipient's birth sign/date. I was amazed how on it they were when they suggested what they would like based on a birth sign. Try them for a visually breath taking experience.
I would like to add that I recently received flowers from Rainforest that were the most beautifully arranged and with each day passing, newer buds opened up revealing interesting colors and shapes. After two weeks of vase life I finally started to remove some of the faded flowers and kept refilling the vase with water as the long lasting flowers finally gave out. All in all, I kept the arrangement looking good for about seven weeks. I still have one lingering rose still in a bud vase still doing well. How's that for money well spent!
Pros: Always something different
Cons: Closed on Sundays
