Seven cheap flower delivery services

As the name implies, Florists.com partners with local shops to deliver arrangements whenever possible; if they don’t have partnerships with florists in your area, though, they’ll ship your bouquet in a gift-wrapped box. It’s not just the standard arrangements, either: You can also send live plants ranging from daffodils to mini orchids and fun fruit bouquets like an oversized margarita glass filled with chocolate-covered strawberries.

Working with a tight budget and time frame? From You Flowers offers inexpensive options that can be delivered the same day, in some cases. Seriously: We’re talking under $30 for some arrangements. Though the designs can be a bit run-of-the-mill, the convenience factor certainly makes up for it. Besides, who doesn't love a classic bouquet?

Founded in 1910, FTD was one of the earliest companies to get into the flower delivery game. Since the company works with more than 35,000 florists in 125 countries, it makes it easy to send a bouquet almost anywhere. FTD’s size helps it keep pricing competitive, too: Arrangements start at just $19.99.

Like many nationwide floral brands, ProFlowers offers a bevy of blooms for same-day, nationwide delivery. You can find old standbys at surprisingly affordable prices (hello, dozen roses for $19.99), as well as more unique options like a juniper bonzai tree and floral peace sign wreath.

Instead of packing your delicate posies into a box and shipping it, Teleflora works with local florists to hand deliver every arrangement. The wide selection of arrangement includes something for every holiday, occasion and recipient, including plenty that can be delivered on the same day. Can’t decide which bouquet to order? Order the Deal of the Day: You just pick the price point and a florist will do the rest. Easy.

When the term 'farm to table' is carted out, you generally think of artisanal kitchens, but The Bouqs Co use the very same ethos. They source their blooms from sustainable, eco-friendly farms across North and South America, and the best bit is they only cut what they sell. So nothing goes to waste and their flowers often last longer than the ones you find in any grocery store. Plus, with flowers from $38, The Bouqs Co make for a happily affordable option.

Though the name of this flower delivery brand hearkens back to the pre-internet era, they’ve since taken their massive catalog online. And since 1-800-Flowers.com also owns Harry and David and several other gift brands, it’s a snap to add a fruit basket, chocolate-covered strawberries and other goodies onto your order. Basically, it's the easiest way to sort out a pretty little gift without dedicating too much time to it.
