It's easy to send flowers to a loved one, either across the street or across the country.  Our national flower shop directory gives you all the information you need to contact local flower shops and florists that are near and close by to where you want the flowers sent.  When you buy direct from the local florists that will deliver your flowers, you eliminate the middlemen charges, thus saving you money.  In addition, you can speak directly to the delivering florist who can tell you exactly what they have available during the current time and season.

Locate-A-Flower-Shop.com® lists FTD and Teleflora flower shops and retail stores.  We can assist you in finding the florist shop that meets or exceeds your expectations.  If you want to send flowers, roses, plants, orchids, fruit baskets, gifts, candy, balloons or silk arrangements, local flower shops have the experience to help you make the proper flower selection.

Flowers convey unique thoughts and feelings words cannot.  From a wedding, anniversary or birthday gift to a loved one's memorial or funeral, local floral shops can help you say it with flowers.

Place your order as early as possible from the florist if you want same day delivery.  You can enter your order online through the flower shop's Internet web site or if you want personal assistance, use the toll free telephone number of the floral shop.  For those florist shops in Hyde Park, NY not having a toll free telephone number, a local telephone number with area code is listed.


A morning-glory at my window satisfies me more than the metaphysics of books. ~ Walt Whitman

The temple bell stops but I still hear the sound coming out of the flowers. ~ Basho

Flowers are the sweetest things God ever made, and forgot to put a soul into. ~ Henry Beecher


Daffodil:
Common Names: Daffodil, Narcissus, Jonquil
Description: Six outer petals surround a cup creating a trumpet-style look of this cut flower. Some stems produce one flower; others produce clusters. The outer petals are yellow or white; cups may be white, yellow, orange or salmon, and some have an orange edge.

Orchid:
Common Names: Orchid, Cymbidium, Dendrobium, Oncidium, Cattleya, Phalaenopsis
Description: Throughout the world, more than 17,000 species are known, and varieties vary in size and shape. Oncidium blossoms are 1 1/2 to 1 inch and are usually yellow with orange-red markings. Cattleya blossoms are large, ruffled and usually 5 to 6 inches across in white or purple with contrasting throats. Phalaenopsis have moth- or butterfly-shaped flowers in colors such as white, pink, purple and bicolors. Cymbidium and dendrobium flowers have a butterfly-like shape and are 3 to 4 inches acress. The larger of the two, cymbidiums are white, yellow, green or lavender with pink or red lips, while dendrobiums are often white or lavender.


Ordering Advice:
Make sure you have the complete street address of the recipient.  The florist's delivery person cannot make a delivery to "the big white house next to the park" easily.  If the address is for a large office building, specify the building name since these types of buildings often do not have easily seen street numbers.
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.
