FTD was founded by 10 florists in 1910 who, along with local delivery and pickup, allowed customers to send orders via telegraph; and now, over 110 years later, they’re keeping with that innovative spirit by allowing you to send floral arrangements across the country and around the world via the internet. 

Along with fresh-cut flower arrangements, you can order fruit baskets, baked goods, charcuterie baskets, and specialty chocolates; and if you’re planning an employee appreciation or corporate event, you can bulk order small gift baskets for attendees. 

They also offer same-day delivery on dozens of arrangements, so even if you’re left scrambling at the last minute, you can still send a beautiful, thoughtful, bouquet.

The Bouqs Co. was founded in 2012 with a mission to provide farm-direct, sustainable sourcing for floral arrangements and bouquets. They partner with growers who use sustainable growing practices like recycling water from irrigation systems, using planting methods that reduce soil erosion, and working towards a net-zero carbon output. 

Along with traditional roses, carnations, and sunflowers you see in most bouquets, The Bouqs Co. offers unusual blooms like pink ginger along with lush greenery for eye-catching arrangements. And aside from one-time orders for holidays and special occasions, you can sign up for their floral delivery subscription. 

Subscriptions range from $40 to $65, depending on the bouquet size, and you can choose a delivery frequency from weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, or bi-monthly so your home can have fresh floral arrangements all year long.  

Features: Free shipping option | 3 subscription options | Shop by recipient/occasion 

Urbanstems is the flower delivery service for anyone who may think it’s silly to spend money on something that is going to last a few weeks, at most. The company not only offers traditional floral arrangements, but they also ship dried flower and plant bouquets that will last as long as you want them to. And since dried arrangements don’t need water or light to look their best, they’re a great gift idea for anyone who might not have inherited a green thumb. 

Urbanstems also offers a subscription service for weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly deliveries of fresh or dried flowers; subscriptions range from $55 to $105 per delivery, depending on the size of the bouquet and type of plants used. And if flowers aren’t really your style, you can choose from a wide variety of succulents and leafy potted plants to add to your growing collection of plant babies.

Farmgirl Flowers was founded in San Francisco back in 2010 on the idea that “less is more,” and with the mission to cut down on plastic waste generated by the floral industry. Each bouquet is hand-crafted by in-house florists and wrapped in burlap before shipping off to you or a loved one. 

Founder and CEO, Christina Stembel chose burlap because it is compostable, and began working with area coffee roasters to buy up their used burlap sacks for packing materials; burlap can also help flowers stay fresher longer when damp, providing needed water to thirsty blooms. 

Along with more eco-friendly packaging and gorgeous blooms, Farmgirl Flowers has a special store page for bouquets that have free shipping, a store page for arrangements under $70, and a dedicated page to check out new arrangements. They also have a small selection of preserved and dried bouquets for longer-lasting displays.
