Bloomthis, Luxury Flower Subscription

love getting flowers? then read this

There's a new babe in town and she's known as Bloomthis - luxury flower by subscription. What's by subscription? If you're familiar with the rise and fall of beauty boxes in Malaysia, then you'll know subscription just means a random surprise sent to you by dear courier on a monthly basis. You have no control over what you've purchase and they arrived at your doorsteps in beautiful packaging (most of the time). Now when it comes to flowers, I think it makes sense because girls just love flowers. Surprising her with different bouquet of flowers every week / month seems like the most romantic thing to do.

While Bloomthis isn't a florist and you can't pick your flowers, they do guarantee that all flowers are of premium value and freshly sent every Thursday to your love in a lovely eco-friendly box, where the blooms are neatly packed with lil' tubes of water at each end (they don't drip) and accompanied by lovely printed messages from you.

Aside from that, your love will be getting to know the world of blooms from another card "Know Your Flowers" introducing what flowers she received today.  I think that is a craft addition to the subscription, setting them apart from other online florists in Kuala Lumpur.

bloomthis, luxury flowers by subscription

how it works?

three types of subscription to choose from

(one time, fortnightly & weekly)

 BloomThis is about creating moments of happiness. A gorgeously arranged bunch on a table immediately brightens the entire place; the smell of a blossoming flower brightens of our day; a handcrafted bouquet lifts our spirits.

At BloomThis, we take pride in going at great lengths to find the most luxurious flowers and bring them right to you. BloomThis offers one-off deliveries or you can subscribe to regular deliveries of fresh flowers sent either weekly or fortnightly a month. Our bespoke flower boxes are uniquely designed to fit in specially handpicked flowers that are sure to delight you. There are no secrets but tonnes of surprises, as you’ll never know what flowers you will get each week until you unbox them. Some may interest you, some won’t, but once in a while you will stumble upon flowers that will leave you in awe!

That’s what we are about; BloomThis regularly sends you (or the lucky person you're sending to) beautiful flowers fresh from the farm. Because life is beautiful and is always filled with surprises, we want to bring you moments of beautiful surprises every time!

Of course I agreed to review Bloomthis.co and put them to the test. I ordered a box last week and sure enough by Thursday morning, the courier was at my door. Excited, I took the box and ran into my house, examining every inch (noticing breathing holes on the sides, so that's how they do it). The brown box it comes in is rectangular, hardy and recyclable. A lovely sticker in the middle seals the box, making it quite chic. I unveil the box to find two notes, tucked underneath a red ribbon. The fonts and design of the notes, impressed me. This surely is luxury.

Two notes - the first note a message from Bloomthis to me with a lovely quote behind that says "Because dreams are meant to be real". The second note, is the "Know Your Flowers" introducing me to what's in my box today. An arrangement of Celosia, Gerbera, Liatris and Berry. I find the mix quite refreshing and wild, though I am no fan of Gerberas the wild flowers got my brownie points. Behind this note, instructions how how to care and prepare your blooms to be placed in vases.

At RM69 for a box (one time subscription) I think it's pretty decent if you add in the equation of delivery charges which is normally from RM20 - 25 on an average depending on locations by online florists. The fact that the flowers can be freshly delivered every Thursday and from my observations, they were fresh upon me receiving it even up till the next day in the box, can't be compared to online florists who has been monopolising the market with high price flowers, some not even freshly presentable. Such disappointments can be replaced with new players in the market like Bloomthis, minus the fact we can't pick our flowers, the notion of getting it on a whim excites any hot blooded girl.

The more boxes you subscribed to, the price goes down. A fortnightly subscription at RM98 (RM49 a box)  and a weekly subscription at RM176 (RM44 a box).

Take this chance to impress any girl, your girlfriend, your wife, or your best pal. I don't mind getting a weekly box from my admirer (if you're out there, Bloomthis has my address!). Subscribe today a http://bloomthis.co.

Look out Kuala Lumpur, romance is just about to bloom.
