    Top of every arrangement looked horrible!!
    Jennifer N.

    Very dissatisfied with my order. I was shown a sample one week prior and I said, " I don't like the arrangement because the flowers on the top are not open." All 7 of the arrangements were delivered with 7-9 flowers per arrangement with the flowers closed. I was told by George, " I give my word, I will order the flowers earlier to make sure they are open." At that point if he knew this would be an issue, he should have suggested a different flower on top. After our conversation he said, " I added heat to them, they would not open." A quality florist would have swapped out those top flowers with another type of flower to make it look fuller as I requested. George never called back to follow up after our first conversation that I was unhappy. The other red flag was the pushy asking for cash only!! I would have preferred to pay via credit card, for my points on United Airlines. I think the fact that he was so wanting cash only was another indication of poor quality. This is 2024, we have so many modern ways of paying. Apple Pay, Venmo, Cash app Super weird the cash only thing. Like obnoxious constantly stressing cash only, not even wanting to talk about the flowers. Super red flag. Hopefully the IRS reads these reviews.

    My mother's birthday flowers. $75 + tax of course. Bigger than it looks here. She was happy (can't put a price on that!)

    I recently purchased Mother's Day flowers (2 pots), 2-3 large bamboo stalks and also a big arrangement recently for my mom's birthday. I wanted one super nice for her birthday and I ended up going with a mixed one (that's pictured). I found it to be funky and pretty cool; I had them swap the red roses pictured for some new, fresh orange ones to match the other flowers in the arrangement better. Are they the best in terms of quality of the flowers? My mom is pretty diligent with upkeep and taking care of her flowers and plants, so based on that too, I would say yes. They're slightly overpriced, in my opinion. I know flowers in general are just expensive AF (so annoying) and of course, you are also paying for the convenience of a store in town. Staff is also pretty nice and helpful, which is always a plus. It just beats getting your roses in a boxes from 1-800-flowers!

    I have to start with saying that the house where the flowers were left with no note. Good thing one of our neighbors brought them in to the building. After further investigation, I had to ask my boyfriend if he had sent them to me. Well he was pretty upset that there was no note on the flowers and that the flowers were meant to be a surprise. At this point I had sent him a picture of the arrangement and thank him for it. My boyfriend proceeded to inform me that he had ordered Dozen Roses. Needless to say, that is not what I received or what he paid for. I realized that it's the busiest time of the year, but it is not a surprise holiday. Plus I know that the prices go up when it comes to Valentine's Roses. Therefore, if you do not have the inventory for a dozen roses, let the customer know and they can choose what they want at that time. I hope that when my boyfriend calls to get an explanation about the arrangement, he will not have to deal with the female worker that everyone on this page keeps on complaining about. Moral of the story: Make sure when you receive flowers as a gift, please thank the person that gifted them to you with a picture so they are assured that they got what they paid for.

    Unacceptable.

    Really, very disappointed with the arrangement that we got this Valentine's Day (purchased on the 13th). My boyfriend ordered $60 worth of sunflowers and red roses - we got 6 roses and 7 sunflowers total, which was fine. A couple of hours after we received them, we put them into a vase with the plant food that was provided, only to see them get progressively worse before they were in full bloom- wilting just one day after Valentine's Day. We get it, flowers die. But certainly not this soon. Even in sunlight, in a vase, and with proper hydration, within three days these had become shriveled, droopy, and unpresentable. I've posted a picture with a very much alive and thriving rose i received from a deli in front of the bouquet from Ditmars Flowers and you can see what a vast difference there is in quality. We won't be returning for any future arrangements.

    I used ditmars floral for my wedding on August 21st, and I could not have been more happy with the results! From the start they were very helpful in talking to me about what I wanted and what would work best for my event. They did the bouquets/corsages which turned out beautifully and lasted throughout the night and still looked great! They also made the centerpieces for the reception (photos) which were delivered right on time and looked so great with the space. The entire staff was also so helpful leading up to the day, anytime I had questions they were very patient and made sure everything was set up the way I wanted. I will definitely be returning for future flower purchases!

    I called the florist for an order on Valentine's day, I asked for delphiniums and Calla Lillie's in a long vase. I wanted to spend total around 80 dollars. I wanted an elegant long bouquet in a long vase, and preferably purple flowers. The attached picture is what the girl I'm dating received. It wasn't at all what I asked for, but George did me a solid favor and sent her a loose bouquet of flowers additionally which I thought was great. Pros: George delivered adequate customer service and the flowers were decently arranged Cons: The order wasn't what I asked for originally, and when I called to express this, they stated, "it's Valentine's Day, it's the busiest day of the year." Well yes, you're a florist shop, you deliver flowers on the busiest and most lucrative holiday of the year, therefore I should get what I asked for, the service I paid for. Secondly, I should have been adequately counseled on what I should expect to receive on the budget I set, and suggestions based on what I'm looking for. Lastly, for what I received this arrangement was pretty expensive. I could have picked up a beautiful bouquet from the Bronx at a florist that I love and know is dependable and delivered it myself for half the price. Summary: I don't think I would use this florist again.

    What a fantastic little mom and pop shop. I went today (Mother's day) hoping to find a bouquet and was able to get this beautiful one for only $17.50! They also had a nice selection of little succulents, I bought a few as thank you gifts. And the service was so friendly and very fast, especially on such a busy day! Can't say enough about this great business.

    I placed an order for same-day delivery on Mother's Day and the arrangement arrived to my sister in beautiful condition approximately three hours after I placed my order. Thank you so much for the prompt service, especially during the coronavirus pandemic!

    Dozen mixed roses.

    I would like to thank the staff at Ditmars Florist for this past weekend. My girlfriend loved her anniversary flowers. As usual I forgot our two year. But with a few clicks, a phone call and one hour to deliver...Ditmars Florist to the Rescue. Thank you again. If you find yourself in a bind and forgot your girls anniversary this is your place!

    Lack of color coordination, flow, or any design concept. Made without a color wheel in sight.
