点评:I've always chosen Byrkley Park if I wanted a plant for a gift . You paid more but I felt it was worth it to get a better quality plant than in our local Waitrose or Tesco.
However my experience when my husband chose an orchid to take as a gift was far from good.
The orchid was in full bloom with no visible new growth coming through. If the plant was reduced in price it's what I would have expected. However at full price I realised that it wasn't going to be long before we were looking at two bare branches as the flowers wouldn't last that long.
We therefore had to buy our friends another plant on our way to see them.
I took the plant back to Brykley as soon as we got back and was told by a very rude 'customer service manager' that it was not their policy to guarantee indoor plants and the heat had caused the plant to flower more quickly than expected.
I was left with the plant and as predicted the flowers are falling off in quick succession after only 3 weeks.
One unhappy customer who will take my business elsewhere in future.
翻译:每当我需要买一盆植物作为礼物时,我总是选择Byrkley Park。虽然价格稍贵一些,但我觉得能买到比当地Waitrose或Tesco卖的品质更好的植物,这钱花得值。
不过,这次我丈夫挑选兰花作为礼物时,情况就不太理想了。那盆兰花虽然开得正盛,但却没有任何新芽长出来的迹象。如果这盆兰花是打折出售的,那倒也符合我的预期。不过,按全价购买后我才意识到,用不了多久这两根光秃秃的枝条上就会重新长出花朵——因为这些花不可能开那么久。于是,我们在去探望朋友的路上又买了一株植物。我们一回家我就把那株植物带回了Brykley,结果一位态度极其粗鲁的“客户服务经理”告诉我,他们并无为室内植物提供质保的政策,而且高温导致这株植物比预期提前开花了。我只留下了那株植物,正如预料的那样,仅仅3周后花朵便接连凋落了。
我是个不满意的顾客,以后不会再光顾这里了。
