Hear from Our Customers
You need flowers that actually last. Not wilted stems that die within days, but vibrant arrangements that keep their beauty for weeks.
That’s exactly what you get when you choose Columbia Midtown Florist. We source our flowers fresh each morning from Manhattan’s historic flower district, just blocks from our Chelsea location.
Your arrangement gets hand-delivered the same day you order it. No sitting in warehouses. No cross-country shipping that crushes delicate petals. Just fresh flowers that arrive looking exactly like they should.
We’ve been serving Chelsea and Manhattan for decades from our location in the heart of the city’s historic flower district. This isn’t some corporate chain—we’re a family business that knows flowers.
Our designers work with the same wholesale suppliers that stock the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Lincoln Center. Every morning, we handpick the freshest blooms from the Chelsea Flower Market, the same market that’s been Manhattan’s floral hub since the 1890s.
When you order from us, you’re getting flowers chosen by people who’ve spent years learning what lasts and what doesn’t.
Place your order online or call us directly. If you order by 1 PM, your flowers get delivered by 5 PM the same day throughout Manhattan.
Our designers create your arrangement fresh to order. No pre-made bouquets sitting around. We select each stem individually, arrange it by hand, and package it for delivery.
Your flowers get hand-delivered by our team, not dropped off by a random courier service. We know Chelsea’s buildings, doormen, and delivery procedures. Your arrangement arrives in perfect condition, exactly when you need it.

Whether you need a simple bouquet for a birthday or elaborate centerpieces for a corporate event at Hudson Yards, we handle it all. Our arrangements work for Chelsea’s unique mix of residential brownstones, high-rise offices, and art galleries.
We understand this neighborhood. When you’re sending flowers to a Chelsea Market vendor or a High Line event space, we know exactly how to coordinate delivery. Same goes for the luxury buildings along the Hudson River or the historic townhouses near the galleries.
Our corporate clients include offices throughout the Flatiron District and Midtown. We handle everything from weekly lobby arrangements to last-minute client gifts, always delivered on schedule.
Yes, we guarantee same-day delivery throughout Chelsea and Manhattan when you order by 1 PM. We’re located right in Manhattan’s flower district, which means we can source fresh flowers and create your arrangement quickly.
Our delivery team knows Chelsea’s buildings and streets intimately. Whether you’re sending flowers to a residential building on 23rd Street, an office near Hudson Yards, or a gallery in the arts district, we handle the logistics seamlessly.
Unlike national delivery services that rely on local contractors, our own team delivers every arrangement. This means your flowers arrive in perfect condition, on time, every time.
Our arrangements typically last 7-14 days with proper care, significantly longer than most flower delivery services. The key difference is freshness at the source.
We source our flowers each morning from the Chelsea Flower Market, the same wholesale market that supplies Manhattan’s top hotels and restaurants. These flowers arrive in New York within 24-48 hours of being cut, not the 5-7 days typical of shipped arrangements.
We also provide care instructions with every delivery and use professional-grade flower food. Many customers tell us our arrangements outlast flowers they’ve purchased elsewhere by several days.
Absolutely. We specialize in custom arrangements for Chelsea’s unique event spaces, from intimate gallery openings to large corporate functions at venues like Chelsea Piers.
Our design team will visit your venue to understand the space, lighting, and aesthetic requirements. We’ve created arrangements for events at the High Line, Hudson Yards, and numerous Chelsea galleries and restaurants.
We handle everything from small dinner party centerpieces to full event florals with ceremony arrangements, reception centerpieces, and ambient floral installations. Our team coordinates directly with your event planner and venue to ensure seamless setup.
Every delivery includes professional arrangement design, same-day delivery within Manhattan, care instructions, and flower food to extend the life of your arrangement.
We also provide delivery confirmation with photos when requested, especially important for corporate clients or when sending gifts. Our team can coordinate with building doormen and office receptionists to ensure smooth delivery.
For recurring orders like weekly office arrangements, we offer scheduled delivery services and can adjust arrangements seasonally or based on your preferences. All arrangements come with our freshness guarantee.
Yes, we provide ongoing floral services for businesses throughout Chelsea and Manhattan. Many of our corporate clients have weekly or bi-weekly arrangements for their lobbies, reception areas, and conference rooms.
We understand the unique needs of different business environments. Tech companies in Chelsea often prefer modern, minimalist arrangements, while traditional firms may want classic designs. We customize our service to match your company’s aesthetic and budget.
Our corporate service includes scheduled deliveries, seasonal arrangement updates, and special event florals. We work directly with office managers and facilities teams to ensure consistent, professional service that enhances your business environment.
Our flowers come from the Chelsea Flower Market, Manhattan’s wholesale flower district that’s been operating since the 1890s. This market receives fresh flowers daily from growers worldwide, but they arrive in New York within 24-48 hours of being cut.
This is completely different from online flower services that ship arrangements cross-country, often taking 3-5 days in transit. By the time those flowers reach you, they’ve already lost days of their natural lifespan.
We select our flowers each morning from the same suppliers that stock Manhattan’s luxury hotels and high-end restaurants. This direct sourcing means you get flowers at peak freshness, which translates to longer-lasting arrangements in your home or office.
