Hear from Our Customers
You order flowers because you want them to make an impression. Not the kind of impression that comes from wilted stems and delayed deliveries, but the kind that comes from arrangements so fresh they look like they were just picked.
That’s what happens when you work with a florist who understands Roosevelt Island. We know the tram schedule, the building protocols, and exactly how long it takes to get from our Midtown shop to your door. Your flowers arrive the same day you order them, looking exactly like they should.
When someone opens that door and sees your arrangement, they’re seeing flowers at their absolute best. Fresh, vibrant, and arranged by someone who actually cares about the result.
