The Tara Florist Difference...

Design - Relationships - Expressions 

1) It about Design and Flower Selections

a) Yes, by design we show a more limited selection on our web site. We strive for "Tested Local Custom Design".
b) We feature imported flowers freshly shipped overnight from Amsterdam! A key difference.
Our web site allows you to give custom input into your order and for a more custom experience call or visit us!

2) No Bait and Switch… 

Our floral arrrangment pictures are not  “artistically modified" for a "perfection look" that is impossible.
Yes, we have taken our own (honest amateur) pictures of product actually designed at Tara Florist to give you a more honest representation of the actual product. 
Our competitors e-commerce web sites show not a single arrangemnt actually designed by them! They use "Stock Photos" with product that is often not avilable in our area!

Insider Note: Why do most florist Web sites show the same product (pictures) and look so similar? The short answer is that they are captive to one of the two major wire services that hosts their web site, content and sells them all the trinkets and containers shown with the flowers.

3) Our research shows customers want more flowers and less containers and trinkets. 

We believe in the value of having each arrangement custom designed by a local florist with the best available local available product.

4) Pricing – We are the only local florist that offers a “Truth in Pricing Policy”.

What other industry forces you to pay a service charge for the privilege of ordering on their web site? It is time for florists and wire services to get real. Say no to the web service charge!

TaraFlorist.com has Zero Service Charges and no add-on fees. Plus no hidden up charges! Our fees and delivery charges are stated up front and not hidden at the final checkout.

No discount games by charging a $15.99 service charge like one national wire service and then offering 20% discounts.

We do not hide delivery charges in arrangements. For instance, most local and national floral web sites show the price of a product without telling you that the $50 arrangement you ordered is actually a $42 arrangement since an $8 delivery is included in the $50.00 priced arrangement. We sell you an arrangement for the price you want, and then add on the 8.99 delivery charge.  Nothing hidden. On wire orders this $7.99 charge is sent to the filling/delivering florist to cover their delivery fee (we do not keep this fee).

5) Customer Service – Our Phones are answered on-site at Tara Florist by our Design Team!
...or complete our contact form.

We never forward our phones to an after hours flower answering service (most times located off-shore.) that mimics a real florist with no actual knowledge of whats in their coolers. We have chosen to offer proven on-site regular business hour personal service.
