Tizarah & Co
Local shopJamaica
Luxury rose domes and mirror bouquets
Typical price$180+ delivery
Same-day · some bouquets
Andrew’s TakeClose
Tizarah & Co trades in roses at volume, the Jamaica shop for someone who wants a preserved or luxury arrangement that lands like a gift. The catalogue runs to mirror rose bouquets, rose domes and 50-to-100-stem presentations in premium boxes. Most listed arrangements run from about $125 to $650, with a median around $180; the Forever Roses Luxury Box runs $250 and the Royal Red Dome of 100 roses runs $650. Buyers mention customized bouquets and roses, including blue ones. It is family-owned, and a staffer named Felipe sends photo and video confirmation of each order on arrival. The shop also handles sympathy and funeral work, weddings and events, plus hard-to-find stems like peonies, ranunculus, dahlias and protea. Delivery spans Queens, New York City, Brooklyn, Connecticut and nearby areas, with the fee calculated by distance at checkout. One thing to know: the shop sells through a BloomNation catalogue, so many list designs are shared with other florists and the delivered piece is the shop's own interpretation.
Its same-day terms: on tagged bouquets; no cut-off published.
Typical price from its listing of September 26, 2026.

M Flower
Local shopFlushing
Rose collections and preserved floral work
Typical price$149+ delivery
Andrew’s TakeClose
M Flower lives in Flushing, where its catalogue runs hard toward roses. The shop sorts its work into a Rose Collection, Designer's Choice, a Bridal Boutique and Preserved Flowers, with Valentine's and Mother's Day specials and small balloon add-ons. Most listed arrangements run $88 to $258, with a median around $149; signature pieces include Wishing Fireworks Rose at $198, Sunshine Champagne Rose at $125 and the Elegant Champagne Preserved Rose Bouquet at $118. Google reviewers keep coming back to custom bouquets, fresh flowers, bouquet making and the dried work. The shop describes itself in the unusual language of a "Modern Tea Experience" brand, promising visually artistic, globally-inspired design across themed collections. One practical note: orders run through a third-party ChowBus page, and the only visible fulfilment option there is pickup rather than delivery.

fLorEsta
Local shopLong Island City
Designer's-choice bouquets built around your budget
Typical price$78+ delivery
Andrew’s TakeClose
In Long Island City, fLorEsta trades the standard pre-made bouquet for something closer to a commission: you choose a palette and a budget, and the team composes around it. The studio describes itself as a nontraditional floral design studio working in romantic, vintage and rustic notes, and its catalogue favors garden-style mixes like peonies, ranunculus, scabiosa and Queen Anne's lace over stiff wire-service shapes. Fixed designer's-choice bouquets run $78 to $186, with Peaches and Cream at $98 and Pink Gardens at $176; the shop's build-your-own model starts at $40, while the site's formal Custom Arrangement listing runs $180 to $1,000. Delivery spans New York City's five boroughs. Google reviewers keep coming back to the custom arrangements, the wedding florals and the way a stated budget gets respected. QNS named the shop in its 2025 and 2026 Western Queens Mother's Day roundups. Juan Carlos Bermudez founded it at 51-02 Vernon Boulevard.

St Albans Florist
Local shopSt. Albans
Last-minute roses and sympathy flowers
Typical price$50+ delivery
Same-day · by 8pm
Andrew’s TakeClose
Same-day orders here can go in as late as 8pm, which is the practical reason to keep St Albans Florist in mind when a deadline has already passed at other Queens shops. The shop describes itself as Christian- and Black-owned with more than 40 years of floral design experience, and its service to Masons, Eastern Star members, transit workers, teachers and NYPD officers says a lot about how it treats regulars. Roses are the backbone: 12 Red Roses Bouquet at $50, 12 Red Roses Wrap at $60 and 18 Red Roses with Designer Wrapping at $80, with Heart Preserved Roses at $200 as the showpiece. Listed arrangements span $10 to $200, most around $50, and Google reviewers mention roses, fresh flowers, no lilies and last-minute arrangements. It delivers across Jamaica, Richmond Hill, Queens Village and parts of Brooklyn and Long Island. Many designs are catalogue pieces shared with other florists, so the delivered piece is the shop's own interpretation.
Its same-day terms: by 8pm.

Flowers By Lunelly
Local shopAstoria
Family-run bouquets and bridal work
Andrew’s TakeClose
If you'd rather order by phone than click through an online catalogue, this Astoria family operation is set up for it. Google reviewers praise the bouquets, the bridal work, and the owners. The site arranges its pages by occasion, everyday, Mother's Day, wedding, and funeral, but lists categories rather than products, so you'll describe what you want and trust the shop's judgment. A third-party directory credits more than 32 years at the current Astoria address, though the shop's own site does not state a founding date. The shop is open Monday through Saturday from 9 to 7 and Sunday from 10 to 2, with extended Mother's Day hours. Delivery is available, but no service area, fee, or cutoff is published. For a traditional family-run bridal bouquet or an everyday arrangement with a personal note, this is a good place to call.

Fern Botanica
Local shopAstoria
Weddings and poetic studio arrangements
Typical price$65+ delivery
Andrew’s TakeClose
Wedding design drives this woman-owned Astoria studio, with corporate work and a la carte pieces alongside. Reviewers keep returning to the boutonnières, bud vases, and how the pieces held together on the wedding day. Fern Botanica describes its work as sustainable, artful, and poetic, shaped around color and story. Its online shop is small: in September 2026 the four listed pieces ran from a $15 dried bouquet to a $75 seasonal arrangement, with The Fernies and The Garden at $55 each, though all four showed sold out when we checked. The studio keeps a limited schedule, closed Mondays and Tuesdays and open Wednesday through Sunday. No delivery cutoff, fee, or service area is published. For a creative Astoria wedding or a custom piece, plan ahead rather than ordering last-minute.

Lilac Flowers
Local shopQueens Village
Wedding and event florals, including mehitza
Typical price$75+ delivery
Andrew’s TakeClose
For Orthodox Jewish weddings and large events, Lilac Flowers is the call I'd make from this list. The studio's gallery language names mehitza partitions, ceremony and reception arrangements, sweetheart-table work and bridal backdrops, which is a level of ritual detail most general florists don't spell out. That focus sits alongside fresh arrangements, sympathy pieces and a flower subscription, and orders can go through DoorDash, Uber Eats and Grubhub as well as the shop's own site. Google reviewers mention event decor, event flowers and roses. The site does not publish storefront hours or delivery terms beyond a Queens Village storefront, so a call is the practical route before ordering. For a wedding or event consultation it is clearly set up to talk specifics rather than sell a quick bunch online.
Typical price from its listing of October 22, 2026.

Golden Petals Studio
Local shopWoodside
Wrapped bouquets and sympathy work
Typical price$125.49+ delivery
Same-day · by 2pm
Andrew’s TakeClose
The wrapped bouquets tell you where this Woodside shop spends its effort. Golden Petals Studio lists a dozen in its own category, from Pure Elegance at $64.99 up to the 150 Mixed Roses Bouquet at $345.99, with most around $125; Antonia's Garden at $210.99 and Bouquet of Peonies at $282.99 are the showpieces. That range makes it a reasonable call for a substantial birthday or thank-you bouquet when you want something more than a standard mixed bunch. Google reviewers also mention custom arrangements and easy online ordering, and the shop handles sympathy and funeral work, corsages, weddings and a subscription package. Same-day delivery runs with a 2pm order cut-off, and Sunday is by appointment only, so weekday or Saturday ordering is simpler. Because the site runs on the Floranext florist platform, many of the listed designs are catalogue pieces shared with other florists, and the delivered arrangement is this shop's own interpretation.
Its same-day terms: by 2pm.

Flushing Garden Florist
Local shopFlushing
Funeral flowers and custom bouquets
Typical price$88.50+ delivery
Same-day · no set cut-off
Andrew’s TakeClose
From the catalogue and the shop's own site, Flushing Garden Florist reads as a family-run local workhorse for Flushing, Queens, Great Neck and the 40-plus surrounding communities it delivers to. Owner Tina Kim has 15-plus years of floral experience and a Vogue feature to her name, which shows in the finish of the arrangements, right down to ribbons and decorative accents. For a seasonal arrangement, Pink Dream at $144.99 or Pink Spring at $110 are the two I'd look at first, though most listed arrangements run from $61.99 to $144.99 and sit around $88. Google reviewers keep returning to the arrangements and the way the team listens. Same-day delivery is advertised but with no published cut-off. Because many listings run through BloomNation, several designs are catalogue pieces shared with other florists, so the delivered arrangement is this shop's own interpretation.
Its same-day terms: offered; no cut-off published.

ABC Trade Flowers
Local shopBriarwood
Everyday and sympathy flowers
Typical price$110+ delivery
Andrew’s TakeClose
A family-owned shop that handles everyday bouquets, weddings, and sympathy work with equal weight. Google reviewers bring up the arrangements, the roses, and a caring staff. In September 2026, the homepage-listed arrangements run from $75 to $155, with most near $110; Soft Blooms is $155 and Paris Modern is $105. Many of the listed designs are catalogue pieces shared with other florists, so the delivered arrangement here is the shop's own interpretation. The shop is bilingual in Spanish and delivers to funeral homes and hospitals, which makes it a practical choice in and around Briarwood. No same-day cutoff is published, and the price sample draws only from the homepage, not a confirmed full catalogue. For an everyday bouquet or a sympathy piece without a long drive into Manhattan, this is where I'd look.

Unique Gifts and Flowers
Local shopJamaica
Custom bouquets and thoughtful gifts
Typical price$77+ delivery
Same-day · no set cut-off
Andrew’s TakeClose
Personal service drives this Jamaica shop, and the Google review themes match it: warm and kind staff, thoughtfulness and a willingness to customize. Founder LaVida Jervis runs a family business with a focus on seasonal specialty stems, so this is the place to call if you want ranunculus, dahlias or protea handled with care rather than the usual dozen roses. Listed arrangements start at $29.99 and run to $250, with most around $77; Joy of Roses at $59.99 and Yours Truly at $95 are the everyday sweet spots, while Red Passion at $250 and Orchid Beauty at $140 are the bigger statements. Delivery covers Queens neighborhoods including Flushing, Bayside and Forest Hills, plus Brooklyn, with same-day available but no published cut-off. Hours run Tuesday through Saturday 11am to 7:30pm and Sunday noon to 5pm, closed Monday.
Its same-day terms: offered; no cut-off published.

Creative Flower Shop
Local shopMiddle Village
Wedding and funeral florals since 1985
Typical price$75+ delivery
Same-day · before 1pm
Andrew’s TakeClose
Serving Queens since 1985, this Middle Village shop is the sister of Creative Florist in Rego Park and carries the same broad catalogue: tropicals, dish gardens, silk and dried work, wedding pieces, and funeral designs. Google reviewers mention the boutonnières, wedding flowers, and special occasion bouquets. The delivery terms are unusually specific: orders before 1 p.m. in the recipient's time zone for same-day service, a local fee of $4.95 to $11.95 per address, plus a $9.99 surcharge for same-day. Both of the brand's websites blocked automated access during our check, so those terms come from search snippets rather than a direct read of the live page. As with other catalogue-based florists, the listed designs are largely shared templates, so the finished piece is this shop's own interpretation. For a Queens wedding or a funeral tribute with clear terms, it's a solid place to start.
Its same-day terms: before 1pm.

Rachel Cho Floral Design
Local shopLong Island City
Clean architectural luxury arrangements
Typical price$225+ delivery
Same-day · by 2pm weekdays
Andrew’s TakeClose
Call this studio for a high-budget Manhattan statement piece or a wedding that needs a clean, architectural line. Rachel Cho's own copy says 'clean and luxurious' and the signature collection backs that up: Artful Dozen at $375, Purple Smoke at $300 and Glorious at $285 are the headliners, while Phalaenopsis Orchids opens at $115. Listed arrangements run from $115 to $750, with most around $225, and there's a quiet confidence in letting the stems do the work. Delivery is same-day or next-day Monday through Friday for orders in by 2pm, with a $75 per-arrangement minimum across NYC and surrounding areas. The studio also takes wedding and event work, hospitality installations, hotels, restaurants and residences, and subscriptions. It operates by consultation rather than storefront hours, so this is a call or email first.
Its same-day terms: by 2pm weekdays.

Cut-offs as each shop and service publishes them, in New York time, read between September 5 and September 26, 2026. A time published without days counts on weekdays only. Shops not listed publish no same-day terms. No national service has a cart at a NYC ZIP yet.
Straight Answers
These answers draw on Google reviews read on September 29, 2026, each shop's own prices, cut-offs, and terms from September and October 2026, our hands-on tests of national delivery services, our Petal Score, and our judgment on when a local shop is the better call.
Prices and fees as of the dates on the board; the board is true at ZIP 10001.
Which New York City flower shops have the best reviews?
Five shops lead on Google review volume: Moravian Florist in Staten Island at 4.9 from 3,004 reviews, Scotts Flowers NYC in Manhattan and Marine Florists in Brooklyn at 4.9 from 1,381 each, Mahir Floral & Event Designs in Manhattan at 4.9 from 1,083, and Shannon Florist & Nursery in Brooklyn at 4.9 from 715. Scotts Flowers NYC is the only one of those five with three recent press mentions, from Time Out New York, Thursd and Secret NYC. Fox Fodder Flowers and Flower Girl each carry two.
Those figures are Google's and the press lists are the publishers'. The Petal Score is our own assessment, built from those reviews for what customers say, delivery reliability and what happens when things go wrong, plus our own checks. On that measure no New York shop is Exceptional, but fifteen are Excellent: Marine Florists at 8.7, Scotts Flowers NYC and FleurDeVera at 8.5, and Mahir Floral & Event Designs at 8.4. Moravian Florist is Excellent at 7.8 on its customer record (851 reviews in two years, 9 delivery complaints). The highest Good score is 7.9, which eleven shops share.
Is it better to order from a local florist or online in New York City?
Most of the time, a local shop is the stronger call in New York. You get a florist in a specific borough, you can see the shop's own arrangements, and 62 shops publish enough arrangements for a typical price to be shown.
If you need flowers after the local cut-offs, or you are sending somewhere your chosen shop does not reach, a national service becomes the backstop. Floom and ProFlowers deliver same-day to all five boroughs, which is why they hold the two national cards on the main view.
Which New York City florists deliver same-day?
41 of the 66 shops offer same-day delivery, and 21 of those publish a cut-off. The latest times on the page are St Albans Florist in Queens and Deja Vu Flowers in Brooklyn, both by 8pm. Black Petals Flowers and Plantas y Flores Fordham cut at 6pm. Scotts Flowers NYC takes Manhattan orders by 2pm, but outer-borough orders need to be in by 10am.
After the shops close for the day, Floom and ProFlowers cover all five boroughs, and Ode à la Rose reaches Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens by 5pm for delivery by 9pm.
How much does a bouquet cost from a New York City florist?
Across the 62 shops that list enough arrangements to count, a typical bouquet runs from $40 at Pascual Fresh Flowers to $285 at Julia Testa. Half the shops sit between about $80 and $150, and the middle shop is at about $111. Twelve have a typical price of $75 or less. The numbers are medians of each shop's own listed prices, before delivery, read in September and October 2026, so a delivery fee is extra.
On the shelves, the Under $75 picks are A&M Floral Place's Coral Dream Bouquet at $55, ABC Trade Flowers' Always in My Soul Hand Tied European Garden at $65, and Marine Florists' Pink Rose Fancy Wrap at $69.99. On the Luxury shelf, Marine Florists' Peony Blooms is $199 and Scotts Flowers NYC's New York Crush is $215.
Where should I order sympathy flowers in New York City?
34 of the 66 shops sell their own sympathy bouquets, and the Sympathy view shows arrangements from the shops' own menus. Pick the borough first, check the cut-off, then read the card for the shop's delivery area.
If the time is tight, Floom and ProFlowers can still deliver same-day, but a named shop's own bouquet is the safer way to know whose work will arrive.

What This Page Is For
Petal Republic city florist indexes are designed to help you find the best local florist or hand-tested national flower delivery service for every occasion.
How We Found and Scored Shops
For New York, we've systematically researched customer reviews of local florists across popular platforms such as Google Maps and Yelp. A person checks every florist against seven rules; failing any means no listing and no Petal Score. Reviews are weighted by age: 20 or more earn a score, 10 to 19.9 earn a band only, and under 10 requires a named press pick or The Knot Best of Weddings win. No minimum star rating. We also factor in accredited awards and press mentions by trusted journalistic outlets. This page covers storefronts in Manhattan, Queens, the Bronx and Staten Island. Each listed shop now carries a Petal Score built from its Google reviews over the last 24 months and our own checks of its site, press and awards.
Checked by Hand
Shops with near-perfect scores or thin independent signals got a hand check against other review sites, business records and public footprint. Five were held back: two records could not be confirmed, one appears closed, one sells to the trade only, and one has no delivery. After our Petal Score checks, thirteen more of the 79 are off the page: two did not meet our listing rules, nine are not shown yet while we finish checking their reviews, one has too few recent reviews to score, and one is off because its website no longer works.
What the Cards Rely On
First-hand Petal Republic coverage exists for eight of the 66 shops: Scotts Flowers NYC, Fox Fodder Flowers, PlantShed, Sahola Flowers and Flower Girl in Manhattan, Julia Testa, Rosehip Social and Stems Brooklyn in Brooklyn. The national services are scored from our testers' own orders.
How We Test National Services
Every national service with a Petal Tested score was ordered like any customer: we paid full price under the tester's name and address, and nothing on the order or card mentioned Petal Republic. We note the delivery window and photograph the box, card, flowers in daylight, stems, and any damage, then one photo on days 1, 3, 5 and 7. The score covers arrival, condition, stem count, varieties and colors, substitutions, packaging, the card, and longevity, with an overall 1 to 5. 4.6+ is Top marks, 4.0 to 4.5 Recommended, 3.0 to 3.9 Mixed, below 3.0 Not recommended.
Occasion Picks
Each occasion opens with up to eight bouquets from New York shops and up to four from national services. We work down the Petal Score and take one bouquet from each shop that sells for the occasion on its own site, only bouquets the shop delivers itself and never below its delivery minimum. If fewer than eight shops qualify, the shelf shows fewer; we don't fill the gaps with national bouquets. The national picks come from the services our team has tested hands-on, one each, highest Petal Tested score first. Luxury, Under $75 and Same-Day work the same way, with bouquets of $130 or more, $75 or less, or from shops that publish same-day terms. Every price is the shop's own for its standard size, before delivery.
Prices and Same-Day Cut-Offs
Prices are the shops' listed prices before delivery, checked throughout the year and last read in October 2026, and same-day cut-offs are shown in New York time with a live count of who can still deliver today.
Google ratings, review counts and press read September 24 and 26, 2026. Band first, then score, then customer and delivery record; no shop pays to appear.
