We loved our first visit to Carmen's, which was prompted by a home delivery from their wonderful staffer, Mary. Upon arrival on a Saturday farmer's market, we met Christy and Morgan, who were fun and kind! The store has a terrific layout, including flowers, gift options, eyeglasses, notepads, children's items, and greeting cards. I love their flower arrangements, but they are so much more at solid pricing points. read more

See all

My husband trusted the Yelp 5 Star reviews. Bought me a dozen yellow roses for my birthday on Nov 6. For $60 I figured at least they would open up. Not the case. Less than a week later I've had to toss a few already that have droopy necks and dead. Like to support small business but the value was not there on this one. They were a beautiful color and smelled nice. That's about it. read more

I live states away and Carmen's ALWAYS hits it out of the park for me! This year I was late getting my order in, but they were VERY accommodating and friendly. Customer service is top notch and the arrangements are ALWAYS #1. Thank you Carmen's! read more

Carmen's Flowers is a delight to work with, year after year! They arrange the most beautiful flowers into stunning and eye-catching designs. Thank you for making my daughter's delivery of flowers so special. She received such nice compliments on them and everyone at Pure Salon in Ankeny enjoyed them too! read more

Nice, local flower shop. I stopped in to see if they could make up a small holiday-themed centerpiece for a family dinner. I simply said I wanted to spend about $30, and picked out a little container. 10 minutes later I had a lovely arrangement ready to go. Service was very friendly and helpful. They also sell other decorative items - candles, artificial arrangements, vases, balloons, etc. It was just after Christmas and they had a good selection of holiday items on sale for 50% off. Always nice to support local businesses like this one! read more

Very disappointed, I ordered flowers online in the evening, looking over the plant and basket I wanted to order, after an hour and thought I had perfect plant and basket. I get a call from them the next day when I am at work. Thinking this was off my plate the night before. Debbie at Carmens told me they didn't have particular plant. After not understanding her I told her I would have to call back. I should have just cancelled the order. Had to get my personal laptop now, and had to go through this again, but was as at work and had to make is short. So I called back found another plant, can't do that one. Also couldn't do several baskets I was asking about. I wanted my Granddaughter to get something from us for her birthday. Finally got something ordered totally disappointed with plant and basket balloon. Will not order from them again. Plus they did not have the best attitude, like I was inconveniencing them. read more

I have ordered from Carmen's twice now, both times as a pick-me-up for my wife. Both orders were executed flawlessly - same day! My wife has commented several times how beautiful the flowers were from Carmen's - much more so than your average store. I HIGHLY recommend the service and quality of Carmen's - they will have all of my floral business from here forward. read more

I received a delivery to my home from Carmen's Flowers. It appeared to be a food basket. Upon closer inspection it was a gift basket with a hodge podge of things that didn't make sense together. Lots of peanuts in the shell, 9 apples, 3 pears, 2 oranges, a bunch of green and bruised bananas, Debbie's snack cakes and rolls just thrown in there (from the box), 1 sleeve of crackers from a box, random candy from a bag of Hersheys, a little container (from a package of 6) of caramel dip, 2 packages of "That's Smart" cookies, which are Hy-Vee brand generic, 1 jalapeno cheddar cheese chunk, 1 summer sausage roll, and jalapeno cheddar chex mix. What? It was all worth about $20 and I'm sure that's not what my mom had in mind when she ordered a Holiday Gift basket for us. I did call and the woman asked me what I wanted her to do. She was nice enough but....should have been more careful in the choosing to begin with. They got the order from another place to fill. So? Isn't this YOUR job to make things look nice and pretty and thoughtful? Not mine to tell you how to make it better - you can't at this point. read more

Excellent. Friendly. Great customer service. I called they day before Mother's Day, which I know is a super busy time for them, and yet they were still completely timely and courteous. Thanks! read more
