1. ProFlowers

Gifting flowers can be a costly business. Of course, you’re paying for the time and skill it takes to grow, care for, cut, arrange and beautifully package a bouquet, but it doesn’t have to cost the earth. Trust us. If you go with a big company like ProFlowers, you can get something stunning for as little as $35, from a handful of classic roses to grow-your-own wildflowers and terrariums of easy-care air plants. They deliver same- and next-day all over the country too, and they offer one of the best ranges of add-ons to make that gift extra special, like Belgian chocolate-dipped Oreo cookies and 3D pop-up cards.

‘Bouquets designed the French way’ is the aim of the game here. Since founding their first branch in NYC in 2012, Frenchmen Olivier Plusquellec and Louis Brunet – former Wall Street bankers no less – have branched out across the States, with sites in Chicago, LA, Miami, DC, Philly, and, of course, Austin. So, what makes their flowers ‘French’? It’s got to be the simple elegance of the arrangements, which come in crisp white vases and minimal, carefully considered color palettes. Their blooms, which come from eco-friendly farms in Ecuador, Colombia, and the Netherlands, are available for same-day delivery in any one of the cities listed above, or next-day nationwide.

If you need to send your floral fancies outside Austin – or to multiple locations – The Bouqs Co is particularly great. They offer same-day delivery nationwide, so long as you order before 11am (recipient’s time). Plus, you can do so conscionably, as these guys only work with socially responsible farmers who use sustainable growing practices, such as minimizing waste and recycling water, and they deal with them directly, which means the blooms you order only get cut after you’ve paid. That means less waste and your flowers stay fresher for longer.

You may well know about the floral giants Floom already, as their reputation reaches globally, but we couldn’t leave them out because their service is so good. They work with local florists all over the place to ensure a huge selection at a high standard. Their website is super simple to use, simply enter your zip code and delivery date, and voila! A bevy of blooms at your fingertips. Order before 12pm and you can get them delivered the very same day too. Purchasing the perfect posies couldn’t be easier.

Looking for variety, but don’t want to go to one of the nationals? Check out Freytag’s. It’s one of the largest family-run florists in Austin and these guys really know flowers. Founder Ken Freytag was just 19 when he started the business and he still runs it today, alongside his son, Chad. Situated up in Crestview, you’ll find a huge selection of flowers here, all of which they can deliver via a fleet of vans throughout the city and beyond, including Lakeway, Leander, and Pflugerville. As well as blooms, they offer gift baskets filled with various combinations of fruit, artisanal Texan goodies, and decorative succulents. They also have a rewards system, so the more you use them, the more you’ll save on future orders.

6. Mercedes Flowers

Over 50 years, the Gaytan Cortazar family has enjoyed a blooming trade in the flower industry. Starting in Chihuahua, Mexico, with Mercedes senior at the helm, it wasn’t long before two of her daughters – also called Mercedes – opened their own shops. This one, situated on the outskirts of Austin since 2011, is run by the youngest Mercedes and offers stylish posies with a penchant for pops of pink, purple, and orange. Thanks to another branch in McKinney, you can order for delivery in both the greater Austin and Dallas areas. They’re open seven days a week too, so while many florists close on a Sunday, Mercedes has got you covered all weekend.

7. King Florist

What started life as a bedding plants business in the Rosedale neighborhood – when John and Bertha King built their first two greenhouses in 1927 – has blossomed into a thriving florist that’s now situated in central Brentwood. If you’re after unique bouquets and succulents that’ve been given the personal touch, then make a beeline for King. They’re open Monday to Saturday and offer same-day delivery to the entire greater Austin area, including Georgetown, Buda, and Dripping Springs. They also sell wholesale (Austin Flower Market) and run Tiny Bloom (which also made our list).

Whether you’re after something traditional or modern, you’ll find it all at Ben White. This shop in South Congress, which has been family-run since 1982, provides arrangements for all occasions – even ‘back to school’ and ‘just because’. You can get them in classic glass or ceramic vases, opt for a twee-wicker basket, or even a funky oversized smiling mug. Their website is updated daily, so everything you see is actually in stock. Plus, they have a great selection of ‘budget blooms’ for those trying to save a few bucks and offer same-day delivery within Austin so long as you order before 12pm (10am on Saturdays).
