Online Experience:
I found the Breck's website to be organized in an attractive
and intuitive manner.
Searching was a snap using the text "Search" box
at the top of the screen. I entered "tulips" and
was presented with 52 items, with Breck's "Featured Items"
being displayed first. I then had the option to sort the results
based on "name" or "price," which I found
to be very handy!
Instead of using the search box, if I click directly on a
flower family like "crocus," Breck's gives me a
similar results windows, but now I can sort to my hearts content
with several more options, including color, height and bloom
time.
Breck's selection of Spring and Summer blooming flowers is
exceptional. The flower photography is excellent and made
me much more confident about what I was ordering.
One thing I really like about Breck's online
experience is their "Collections." The Breck's bulb
specialists have selected groupings of flowers that go exceptionally
well together. With one click of my mouse, I added the desired
"Collection" to my shopping cart without the need
to hunt for the individual flower bulbs. Takes the guesswork
out of creating a garden with just the right balance of color.
My only "knock" against Breck's
is that they don't publish "Garden Plans" that provide
me with a step-by-step layout for my flower garden. While
this is a small thing, I think it's very useful and would
greatly enhance the buying experience.
Overall, I give the Breck's site 4 1/2 flowers
(Excellent)
