I took a chance on Basta's! My long-time friend also suggested them. I called the day before the funeral and they were very helpful. I don't know much about flowers (especially what was appropriate for a funeral... so I gave them my price range and he had a few suggestions). Although I never saw the flower arrangement (it was unfortunately too far to travel), EVERYONE said it was absolutely beautiful! If I ever need to send flowers again in Ogdensburg, I will certainly use Basta's!

I am a fan of Scrim's Florist. They have lovely bouquets for mother's day and valentine's…read moreday--absolutely beautiful. But what keeps me going back is the house plants. Every plant I've gotten at Scrim's has been beautiful and done really well. I wouldn't really say I have a green thumb, nor am I death to all houseplants--and the staff at Scrim's has always been really knowledgeable and helped me choose plants that are not toxic for my plant-chewing cat and that are pretty easy for me to care for (and therefore won't die on me). The plants have always been healthy and survived the move from the flower shop to my apartment--I have one plant that has doubled in height and is just doing beautifully. I've picked up housewarming gifts here as well, the staff are always really prompt and happy to help. Gold stars all around. Also, they do a great job wrapping up the plants for you. I picked one up in winter one time and she wrapped it a few layers to protect it from the wind and put a cute little ribbon and sticker on it--simple and pretty.

I had ordered a beautiful arrangement but unfortunately she was away for the weekend and wasn't home to receive the second order of flowers.

A little family operation with great service. You for sure get that small town feel in here…read more Parking at the rear. The crooked floor in the floral display area shows the age of the building the business is in, lots of character! There is a large selection of candles and gifts. For some, the floral choice may not be too plentiful (perhaps depending on the day) but it was just fine for what I needed. I would not hesitate to recommend coming here or placing an order.
