are they delivered by same people

just looked at boots and debenhams online flower shops and they have the same christmas pictures and prices on both. Just wondering, as they are not owned by the same people, is it the same company doing the makeup and delivery of the flowers?? They are well expensive as well ie Poinsettia at £20

Flowers Direct do their flowers if you check out the F/G and F/D websites they are the same as Debenhams.

Remember year or so ago one of the f/d reps came round to get me to join. Didn't see the need. No one else would take the orders, so i'd get them anyway. She gave me a load of cards to put with the orders "fresh flowers from Debenhams"......right...like i'm really gonna do that!

Went into a shop earlier in the year to ask for work experience; the owner wasn't there but the girl that was gave me a card with the shop number on and it was a 'flowers from WH Smith card' - thought it odd at the time, now I understand!

Wow you've just got to ask why anyone would agree to do that - Would the florist get in trouble if they put one of their own shop cards on it ? does anyone know ?
