Floom is a marketplace flower delivery service that helps you find artisan florists nearby in addition to a few that ship nationwide. For our Colorado order, we picked a Rachel Cho Floral Design bouquet delivered from Queens, New York, which shipped it by FedEx. It arrived inside its promised window and stayed beautifully fresh past a week. Below: our photos from the listing to day 7, the receipt, and the codes.

Our Order, Start to Finish
We ordered Mumma Mia! Hand-Tied on October 12, 2026, in its one size. The arrangement was produced by Rachel Cho Floral Design in Queens, New York, then the bouquet shipped by FedEx to Larissa Runkle in Colorado, who received and photographed it. The steps below run from the listing to day 7 of vase life.

Step 1: What We Ordered
The listing photo · Floom, its photo of Mumma Mia!
But this is a bouquet that feels ready to impress out of the box, it came wrapped in a ribbon too which was a nice touch and made it feel more like a gift.

Yes
Petal TestedTop marks4.8 of 5
This bouquet is a top contender for me. I love the colors and the wild nature of the arrangement and that it gets away from the traditional rose-carnation thing. It’s lasted well, and the flowers have been very healthy since delivery.
Our Verdict on Floom
Our bar is simple: arrive in the window, match the description, and stay fresh past a week. Mumma Mia! cleared all three. The $94.99 total on October 12, 2026 ran 1.1% above the $93.99 median of our twelve 2026 delivered totals, so value scored 5 and the order averaged 4.8, Top marks. Larissa narrowly preferred the Bouqs bouquet delivered the same day. Brandy Wells's July 2023 UK order from two London florists scored 4.5 before the 2026 criteria. It suits a sender who wants an unusual, loose hand-tied style that lasts, not a large bouquet or a local hand-off outside the big cities.

Head to Head With The Bouqs
I would still choose Bouqs, but the margin is slim. Bouqs flowers seem slightly healthier and the nature of the double bouquet means that it’s more full and fragrant. For those reasons it’s my preference, but the choice wasn’t easy!
On October 12, 2026, Mumma Mia! Hand-Tied listed at $90.00, in its one size. SUPPORTLOCAL took $10.00 off, beating WELCOMEBACK's 10% ($9.00) on this bouquet. The $14.99 delivery fee on October 12, 2026 was not discounted and matched both September 16, 2026 carts. Sales tax was $0.00, and no service-fee line appeared even though Floom's FAQ describes one.

Brandy’s 2023 Findings
Who delivered. “I ordered two bouquets from Floom that were fulfilled by two separate local, independent florists.”
Freshness. “Fresh, with both pre-bloom and full-bloom flowers throughout.”
Care. “Neither of the flower arrangements came with care instructions. However, their listings online shared details for care, which I thought was a nice way for the company to minimize packaging waste.”

Is Floom Legit?
Yes, Floom is legit. We paid $94.99 on October 12, 2026. Floom charged exactly what its checkout showed, passed the order to a partner florist, and the bouquet reached Larissa Runkle in Colorado on the day promised. She found it still fresh on day 8.
Larissa Runkle, who received our October 2026 order: “Absolutely! It’s rare where we live to find bouquets this stunning and unique. So receiving it has been a treat.”
Does Floom Deliver by Hand or Ship?
It depends on the florist Floom assigns to the ZIP. In major cities, Floom lists several local florists, and a local florist's bouquet may go by hand. At our Colorado ZIP, the only florist was Rachel Cho Floral Design in Queens, New York, so our bouquet shipped by FedEx.
Does Floom Deliver on Time?
On our October 2026 order, yes: FedEx delivered at 5:45 PM on the day we chose, inside the 10am to 6pm window, and left the box outside the fence.
July 2023, in the UK: “Both of the flower arrangements I ordered arrived on time, within the specified delivery window.”
What Is the Floom Delivery Fee?
Our October 2026 order paid $14.99 delivery for a bouquet shipped by FedEx, and no sales tax was charged.
Across our 3 Floom carts (September 16, 2026 to October 12, 2026), each with a different florist, the delivery fee was $14.99. Same-day was $19.99 on a Manhattan florist’s date picker (September 16, 2026). Fees are set per florist: observed, not a national rate.
Does a Floom Bouquet Come With a Vase?
No. On our order, a vase was an add-on we did not take, and the jar shown in the listing photo is not included. The bouquet arrived with its stems in a wet wrap.
Is There a Floom Discount Code?
SUPPORTLOCAL took $10.00 off our first order on October 12, 2026, and it is for first orders only. WELCOMEBACK took 10% off a bouquet in our September 16, 2026 cart, which saves more once the bouquet passes $100. Both codes are typed at checkout, and neither discounts the $14.99 delivery we paid on October 12, 2026.
