    Good vibes only! Backbone Floral is my go to local shop for flower delivery. They have the coolest looking bouquets - very trendy and vintage looks that are very unique. They coninued to bloom for days and days after getting them making it a great gift that does not just wilt after a few days like other flowers I have given. Amazing delivery service too got it there on time ease. Will order again for sure!

    The most gorgeous arrangement I have ever spent money on!

    I was in search of a flower bouquet for a bday and was wanting something different. Came across this boutique and I am so glad I did. They have the most amazing unique arrangements and vases. I found the most beautiful dry flower arrangement which I never knew a bouquet can be so beautiful. Azarely was very helpful and was able to add some foxtail to make the bouquet just perfect. I am definitely coming back for dry bouquets!! Beautiful arrangements and very helpful staff.

    Came here to get some dried floral to fill my bouquet for Saturday. I didn't get her name but the owner is friendly and helpful. She keeps a clean store and I was very pleased with her selection. For her floral bar, it's priced by the stem. Some vases don't have the price on them so I couldn't gauge my costs until I was rung up. Nonetheless, it was a cute experience and I'll be back for more soon! Also, double check her hours because it recently changed!

    Fresh flower arrangement

    This place is AMAZING. I've purchased their fresh bouquets in store for myself and friends, as well as ordered vased arrangements for family members and they've been a hit every time. They are reasonably priced and do such a beautiful job of compiling seasonal blooms. Highly recommend stopping in if you're in the neighborhood.

    This is hands down the BEST florist in San Diego. I was delighted to get a beautiful arrangement for Valentines Day... quite frankly THE most beautiful one I have ever received!! Mother's Day is next week, and if you are looking to buy flowers you need to visit Backbone Floral & Vintage!! She has talent like no other!!!

    Flowers for Mother's Day Thank you Backbone Floral & Vintage

    Thank you for the most gorgeous Mother's Day flowers. My daughter wanted to support local when sending me flowers today. I am so grateful she found you! They are stunning. Sorry my pictures do them no justice. It's such an incredible bouquet and it makes me feel happy! You will be our only florist for now on!

When i found out at 3pm the flowers were not delievered i called to ask why. The calendar on their website at end of month is a rolling calendar vs month youre in so I made a mistake and ordered for March vs February. Fair enough, so since the flowers werent delivered that day before 1, I asked for a refund of the $10 rush fee. The manager, got sassy and was extremely rude with me and told me no. They were sticking with original order. I told her either refund me the $10 rush fee or refund me the entire order of $200 (ish). She said she would rather lose the order than refund me the rush fee. I got my refund and cancelled the entire order. Whomever this mgr is who took my call....she needs a lesson in customer appreciation and not to be sassy when people are calling. 0 stars if possible! in response to the post...i did not ask for a refund of the purchase AND free flowers. I wanted the flowers...why would i want a refund and to deliever the flowers. no one works for free! I wanted a $10 refund but the gal who called me wouldnt listen, was snappy, and short.

Liz's Flowers was fantastic to work with. I called the shop a couple of times; each time they were also quick to respond and friendly. The employee knew I had trouble placing an order online, so when it went through she called to notify me that it went through and that she verified with the funeral home the date and times to ensure it arrived on time. She even gave me the personalized ribbon free of charge. When the arrangement was complete, she texted me a picture of the final product. I appreciate the time, friendliness, and communication that Liz's Flowers provided. I found her prices to be below average for the area. I highly recommend this local shop.

I found out via…read moreemail the morning of delivery, that apparently Chula Vista is not within the scope of delivery for the flower shop, as it's too far. This was not indicated at all during the order process so was very off putting to hear day of for a Mother's Day arrangement. I am currently out of state for work and an unknown number was calling my cellphone, it was the delivery driver from a trusted florist that was sublet to take care of my order. The driver was going to deliver to the wrong address even though she read the proper address back to me over the phone. I spent about 10-15 minutes on the phone walking her through finding the location of our home and verified delivery via camera and doorbell. When you're paying a premium price to have something done properly and this is the outcome, it was extremely disappointing. I will not be using four seasons flowers for any special occasion again, big let down on many levels. 5-10-2026: To the owner of the shop that just replied back to my review. I am not sure how much more clear I can make this to you, the CORRECT address was provided and everything was filled out appropriately on my end, I am not understanding why you are harping on the fact that this was an online order, if your operation doesn't have the capacity to accommodate this then don't offer it as a service. There is absolutely NO difference in placing an order in person, over the phone and or online. The "trusted" florist you decided to pawn this order off on still attempted to deliver to the WRONG address. Nothing about this was as a success and I cannot believe you have the audacity in a public platform to try and deflect the way that you are. I spent 10-15 minutes on the phone with an elderly delivery driver explaining to her very kindly, that wherever she was going was not the correct address, I am struggling to understand what about this are you not understanding? I am absolutely flabbergasted that instead of reaching back out in attempt to correct the issues, especially in a review, this is your stance. Your address is irrelevant when you're listed as one of the top rated florists in San Diego, if you didn't know, Chula Vista is 100% part of the city. Adding photos for context, maybe you want to rethink your "trusted" partnership approach. Pretty ridiculous again your take on things. Will NEVER be using your shop again and will be sure to spread the word to friends and family to steer clear of your establishment! Very funny that the florist is claiming this is the first email they received, my first communication to them was not the one they decided to include in their review, don't believe everything you read. The owner is incredibly defensive and does all that she can to deflect and spin any negative review to benefit her operation. Go and check yelp and google and get a kick out of it if you have time. The only thing good that came of this after airing things out publicly was a refund.
