I have loved Hillside for years. My husband has bought me many bouquets and arrangements from them over the years, but the last couple of arrangements have not lasted. Although their arrangements are aesthetically pleasing the quality and freshness of the flowers is declining. I was lucky enough to receive a bouquet a few days ago. It was beautiful. Arrangement was made with roses, hydrangea and other flowers. I received my flowers on a Saturday afternoon and by that evening the roses were already wilting. The next day I changed the water (to keep bacteria from growing). That did not help and by Sunday my poor roses were already too far gone. I was quite disappointed in this. The roses had to be discarded after two days. The rest of the arrangement only lasted 4 days. Other arrangements have lasted about a week. I'm sorry to say that I will be trying a different florist.
