WARNING !
A picture tells a 1000 words. Serenata Flowers delivered this appalling bunch of flowers literally by throwing them over our garden gate for me to discover on the wet path a few hours later. Within minutes of seeing the embarrassment that they had sent, I had thrown them in our garden waste bin!
