I ordered a plant for my aunt for $44.99 (plus $15.99 delivery fee, ouch!) and earned 1500 miles. This route versus buying miles is close, $75.25 to buy 2,000 miles on United site, but you get a nice gift for someone too this way. So, if you're considering buying miles to top off for an award this might be a better route. I usually see my miles in about two weeks +/-.
FWIW, I've been happy with them, especially when I use the local florist option. Sure, the service charges are high for that, but it's easy and gets some miles in the process.
