He was very friendly but doesn't have floristry skills, my local corner store wraps my flowers more beautifully for 1/3 the price. He wrapped my flowers in completely ripped and jagged chopped paper so that the whole edge of paper around the top which is meant to frame your flowers was a horrible mess, and charged me £20 for 6 stems of lilies (which would be understandable at a professional florists but not for what they were offering).
When I discovered the price (which is the same as what I recently paid for for beautifully boxed French tulips from Liberty) I asked if he could perhaps re wrap them because they looked very untidy, and he became quite passive aggressive with me, and the lilies ended up being quite damaged.
Even after re-wrapping he took so little care that they were embarrassing - luckily I am crafty and managed to quickly re do it myself in the waiting room so that at least the ends of the paper meet evenly.
Considering they are the nearest florist to the London hospital they could be doing a roaring trade, but it is clear why they are not. Don't waste your money and buy chocolates instead or pre buy your flowers before you get to the white chapel area!
He was also being rude to the gentleman he served before me, so when the customer had to go withdraw money to pay, he never came back and I don't blame him. I should've done the same.
