Can't wait for the Geisha Girl and Miss Lily OT bulbs to bloom. Ramona features a cherry-picked selection of unusual lilies. Also, she answered my e-mails right away, which was appreciated. Will order from Faraway Flowers again. | | Positive | Chocolatemoose (2 reviews) | On March 18, 2008, Chocolatemoose North Pole, AK (Zone 1) wrote:I'm giving Faraway Flowers a 5 Star+ rating! Exceptional customer service (actually, better than exceptional, but can't think of another word). Healthy, clean bulbs arrived well packaged and the labeling, complete with a color picture was frosting on the cake. It doesn't get much better....oops, yes it does. She also included a helpful guide to planting.
Ramona was accomodating in meeting my special request regarding shipping to my Far North location. It wasn't expected but she did it with an on-line smile that made the transaction a complete pleasure.
Ramona has set a standard other vendors will need to meet if they want my lily $$$ in the future.
I believe you can buy with confidence from Faraway Flowers! | | Positive | llilyfan (2 reviews) | On March 17, 2008, llilyfan South Central, IA (Zone 5a) wrote:Having heard nothing but good about this new Lily Retailer I was motivated to place an order. Wow! am I ever glad I did.
The personal customer service was extrordinary, even when I messed up an add on. I sent an email and the owner quickly replied and offered me several options to pay the additional amount. It has been a long time since I have felt important as a customer; I truly believe I was appreciated as a patron.
The bulbs arrived in beautiful shape, clearly marked with pictures and information, and a planting guide was also included.
I will most definately order from
Faraway Flowers again. | | Positive | glevely (4 reviews) | On October 11, 2007, glevely Sanford, MI (Zone 5a) wrote:this is my first order with this Co. and I could not be happier they are excellent sized bulbs very fresh roots I have told every one I know to order from her. Great job!!!!!!

Once again Faraway Flowers has out done themselves! I just received my order and it was as per usual fantastic. Ramona sends some of the best bulbs you can get!

| | Positive | pardalinum (3 reviews) | On April 29, 2007, pardalinum Willamette Valley Z8a, OR wrote: The lily bulbs I ordered were firm and healthy. Excellent planting instructions were included. Shipping was delayed due to inclement weather but it was only a few days. The company offered a great promotion for Valentines Day-- free bulbs with sweet names, depending on the size of your order. What I really liked was this company making available some of the newest hybrids not otherwise available. Thanks Faraway Flowers. | | Positive | intercessor (3 reviews) | On April 28, 2007, intercessor Fox River Valley Area, WI (Zone 5a) wrote:I ordered a couple orienpet bulbs and an oriental. The orienpets were big(2.5-3.25inches diameter), healthy and firm. The oriental was standard size that I have seen from other companies. The shipment was delayed because of weather but it was communicated that they would ship when things cleared.
Thank you for the nice bulbs! | | Positive | Maxine (1 review) | On April 28, 2007, Maxine Western, WI (Zone 4a) wrote:Was very pleased with the bulbs that I recd. and the excellent care and timing that went into my order.
There was a delay, but Ramona can't control the weather, although I think she would if she could.
Will be placing another order with her company, but am wondering where I will find the room for more love of my life, LILIES!!

All the bulbs were exceptionally fresh, healthy looking and true to the described size. I'll order again from this company without hesitation. | | Positive | Riverland (6 reviews) | On April 27, 2007, Riverland Northeast, LA (Zone 8a) wrote:I ordered lilies from this company Dec 3. I still do not have flowers. I received one email saying that the order would be delayed. They do not answer numerous emails. I will never order from them again. I think if I were a small co. trying to get a good start, I would at least answer emails. On April 29th, 2007, Riverland changed the rating from negative to neutral and added the following:
I am changing this to neutral. I received my bulbs and they are nice. I would have appreciated better communication. Just an answered email would have been fine. On April 29th, 2007, Riverland changed the rating from neutral to positive and added the following:
I am going to now ratte this company with a positive. It seems Ramona really was not receiving my emails. I have had very good communication with her the last few days. wishing you luck in making a go of your business. | | Positive | magnolialover (12 reviews) | On April 27, 2007, magnolialover Southern Wisconsin, WI (Zone 5a) wrote:I must applaud this new company for a job well done. I received my bulbs today and could not be more pleased with the size and quality. I had a rather large order and all of the bulbs were excellent.
The shipment was delayed for inclement weather, and as customers, we were notified immediately of the delay. Communication from this company has been excellent from start to finish and I so appreciate that in business today. As a customer I not only received an excellent product, but felt important to this business as well.
Many thanks to Faraway Flowers for a job well done. Look forward to future orders. Highly recommend this company to avid lily lovers. |
