North Carolina (NC) Florists, Flower Shops & Florist Directory
Our national directory of flower shops and florists make sending flowers to anyone across the street or across the country simple and easy to do. All you need to do is to find a local flower shop and florist in the city or town you would like the flowers delivered to. If no florist exists there, we will list flower shops and florists in other cities and towns that are near or close by. Besides saving money by not having to pay middlemen's fees and charges when you order and buy direct from a local florist, you talk directly to the people who will actually make and deliver your order. Because of this, you will know exactly what is available during the current season and you will know exactly what will be sent.
Locate-A-Flower-Shop.com® lists all of the nation's FTD and Teleflora flower shops and retail stores for you. We can help you choose just the right florist shop for you. It doesn't matter if you want to send flowers, roses, plants, orchids, fruit baskets, gifts, candy, balloons or silk arrangements, local flower shops will be there to guide you in making the best flower selection.
Flowers convey the most inner thoughts and feelings words cannot. From a birthday, anniversary or wedding gift to a loved one's memorial or funeral, local floral shops can help you say it with flowers.
If you place your order early with the florist, you can be assured of same day delivery. Enter your order online through the flower shop's Internet web site or if you want some assistance, use the toll free telephone number of the floral shop. For those florist shops in Murphy, NC not having a toll free telephone number, a local telephone number along with their area code is listed.

English statice calyxes are yellow, white, purple, lavender or pink with tiny white or yellow flowers inside. Latifolia calyxes are white with blue-violet flowers.
Freesia:
Common Names: Freesia

The bell-shaped freesia blooms up to seven days and comes in white, golden yellow, orange, red, pink, mauve, lavender, purple and bicolors.
Ordering Advice:
The best advice to remember is to keep the order as general and open as possible. Because flowers are usually better in some seasons and not others, it is wise to allow the florist to pick the types of flowers used so they can give you the best quality. Some flowers, such as roses, carnations and chrysanthemums, are available all year.
While some florists will take an order to be delivered in the A.M. or P.M., it is usually impossible to have it delivered at a particular time of the day (i.e., 2:00 P.M.). Because of traffic, pending funerals, weather and many other things, it very difficult to predict where the delivery van will be from one minute to the next. If the delivery is for someone at a place of employment, give the florist the time the person will be there at work.
