Why Dill's is Different...
Our flowers and candy are of better quality. We only buy flowers with bigger blooms and brighter colors! Compare the size of our signature red Rio Rose, "Rouge Baisier" to your typical, supermarket or gas station rose, and you'll see what we mean!
Do you miss the fragrance of an old-fashioned rose? We do too! That's why our buyer is always on the lookout for roses, lilies, and other flowers that have a true garden fragrance. Ask about our signature pink Rio Rose, "Attache." It's fragrance is simply heavenly!
We have more choices available! In a typical week, we have over 30 varieties in stock. If it's in bloom, more than likely, we can get it here for you!
Don't give ordinary flowers to an extraordinary person! We specialize in exquisite, unusual, hard-to-find flowers that always make an impression. We can have just about anything sent from our growers within a few days!
We do not purchase off-brand sweets. All of our candy is novelty or gourmet, including some hard-to-find items. We carry only the best tasting candy available. Each variety is taste tested by our employees and selected candy customers.
We take better care of our flowers and candy. Your flowers should last a week if you care for them properly, but that is only possible if they were handled correctly from the farm to the store. We handle flowers and plants all day long, and we know how to keep them fresh. Most flowers need to be refrigerated, prior to arranging, at approximately 34 degrees. If you see flowers sitting out at room temperature, they are losing vase life. We rotate flowers in and out of our coolers all day so that they stay chilled and last longer.
Ever notice how grocery store flowers are often next to or IN the produce section? Fruits and vegetables naturally give off ethylene, a gas that speeds up ripening and causes flowers to wilt, and car exhaust does the same thing! We work hard to ensure our flowers aren't exposed to ethylene.
How do we keep our flowers fresh? We keep them refrigerated. We sterilize buckets and vases. We change the water. We recut the stems, and we pull out wilted blossoms daily. Have you ever seen slimy, rotten leaves in a bucket of flowers? They're releasing bacteria and spoiling the whole bunch. We never let that happen.
Candy, especially chocolate, is known to melt. However, cold temperatures are detrimental to candy, too. Temperatures below room temperature, or 60 degrees, can cause candy, chocolate especially, to become chalky, stale, and lose some of its flavor. You'll never find our candy in a cooler or cooler unit, nor will you find it in hot conditions. It is displayed and stored at a comfortable room temperature.
We take better care of you, our valued customer. We understand that customers buy flowers on some of the best, and worst, days of their lives. Florists have seen it all.
