I am delighted to highly recommend Maxine's Floral. I ordered a bouquet from Maxine's Floral this past Monday for delivery to my long-time friend Alicia. Alicia and I have been friends for over 30 years, since we were kids in the same class at school. Alicia had messaged me that her Father had passed away, so I wanted to send her flowers and bring her a home-cooked meal. I had hesitated at the space on Maxine's website where it asked me to put in my friend's phone number, because Alicia and I always communicate via Facebook Messenger and I don't actually have Alicia's phone number. So I put in my phone number instead. Maxine called me and I explained the situation to Maxine. Maxine was very professional and helpful when I spoke with her on the phone. In addition to the phone number issue, I was also a bit worried because the flower delivery was initially scheduled for a Monday and no one was home to receive the delivery at the time that it was delivered, and Maxine's website said that Maxine's floral is closed on Tuesday and Wednesday. So I was concerned that if the delivery had to be postponed to Thursday or Friday, the flowers might end up being a bit droopy by then. When I explained my concern to Maxine, Maxine reassured me and told me that they can sometimes schedule re-deliveries for Tuesdays and Wednesdays. At Maxine's suggestion, I messaged my friend Alicia on Facebook Messenger and I asked Alicia to call Maxine to arrange a re-delivery time for her flowers. When I delivered the home-cooked meal to Alicia tonight, Alicia gave me a beautiful Thank You card that she had made using a photo of a few of the blooms in Maxine's flower arrangement. Alicia is so creative! Alicia loved the flowers, and she received them on Tuesday, even though Maxine's Floral is closed that day. I felt very taken care of while I was speaking with Maxine. Her customer service was superb, and Alicia loved Maxine's floral arrangement. I have attached photos of Alicia's Thank You card to me, since it included a photo of a few of the blooms in her arrangement and it also included some of her thoughts about the flowers. I'm very happy with both the customer service from Maxine and the floral arrangement. If the customer service was not as good as it was I could have imagined that these issues may have added stress to the situation, but there was no stress added, only stress taken away. I would most definitely order flowers from Maxine again. Thank you, Maxine, for helping me to bring comfort to a wonderful friend in her time of grief. read more

This flower is wonderful. They put together an incredible bouquet for my mom, exactly as I imagined it. Thank you!

Another beautiful selection of flowers, leaves and herbs, many rarely seen in commercial floral arrangements. The contrasting and complimenting colors, and choices of large and tiny blossoms keep the eye moving in and out and all around this work which looks beautiful from all angles and orientations. The aromas are also perfect. This is masterful work! Thank you! read more

I ordered an anniversary arrangement for my nephew and his wife in Seattle. I am in NY, but like to support small businesses. They did an amazing job, were delivered on time, and very pretty arrangement. read more

Very happy with this biz! Found it in Yelp when I needed to send flowers to my friend for her birthday. I wanted to use a local business. Their website was easy to use and they have a great selection. My friend was very happy with her arrangement for her birthday! I love how they wrapped it. read more

I called Maxine in the late morning of a Saturday to see if she could pull together a simple wedding bouquet for my wedding the next day, and she did not disappoint. That morning she bought the flowers fresh, and she made a perfect, beautiful bouquet of nine, perfect red roses, hand tied. It was simple yet exquisite. I was even more delighted when I went to her store to pick it up. Full of fun and fanciful kitsch, it was a playground for the senses. Maxine herself is charming and unique, and I will definitely keep her in mind if I need more flowers. It is worth mentioning that it was not cheap to use her services. While I don't order bouquets regularly, and therefore have no idea what an average cost for a simple bouquet of roses is, I almost choked at the final bill. But, like someone else said, sometimes you have to pay more to get more. read more

I wound up being out of town for my wife's birthday on a job interview and her birthday falls close enough to valentines day that I needed to make a big sweeping gesture with very good flowers. Looking toi get the best, I searched on yelp and found Maxines and even ignored their high prices assuming I would get something spectacular out. Instead, I wound up paying double what I would have normally paid (the arrangement cost just over $135) and wound up getting something that was not quite "full" and with flowers that seemed to be on their last legs. The whole arrangement had to be thrown out only 3 days later because so many of the flowers had wilted. Maybe I just had a one-off bad experience because I asked for something too specific (cala lilies and roses), but at the price asked I find it hard to forgive. read more

Such beautiful work! Maxine was so kind as i had to make some adjustments to my pick up, ending up needing it delivered days after i placed the order and she was so flexible. My mom looooves the flowers! read more

So pleased with the flowers for my daughter's zoom shower. I could not participate but send Maxine pictures and she delivered an amazing arrangement. My daughter was so pleased. Excellent service. thank you.....Wendy read more

LOVE Maxine's flowers. I've ordered from this florist for the past 6 years, so I cannot beleive it's taken me this long to write a review. I love supporting local businesses and this one is beloved for all the right reasons. I have never been disappointed by the arrangements that Maxine has done whether I order a bouquet for sympathy or have her create 50 arrangements for a large event. Her selections are always fresh and unique. She takes input on look and feel and knocks it out of the park. I can't recommend any Seattle florist as highly for their talent, professionalism, and cheer. Keep it up Maxine! read more

This is NOT actually a review of Maxines Floral - It is a caution against anyone - including Maxines - using FTD to order flowers. Maxines is just the closest FTD Florist to where I wanted the flowers delivered - Zip 98125 What a messed up organization FTD Flowers is - and when you call to try and fix it - you get a person who is from a foreign country and you CANNOT understand her. Facts: Ordered flowers for my wife 2/13 - paid $221.26! Special girl - special day. Got an order receipt - had wrong address - I changed it and got an email confirming change had been made. So far, so good. Flowers were NOT delivered 2/13 - then I got a series of emails 1) that the item I had ordered was not available 2) Then, that the order had been delayed but, 3) Then an an email that it had been delivered - IT HAD NOT BEEN DELIVERED. I called this morning to figure out where it was! It took me 45 minutes with an ESL person - who never did tell me where it was - and said, she'd process a refund, Likelihood of getting a refund from FTD is about as likely as getting my wife some flowers from FTD. This call that did nothing took 45 minutes of my day! More importantly - - FLOWERS NEVER GOT DELIVERED!! Maxines Floral - I hope you will pass this horrific adventure - along to FTD!!!!! An occasion that should have brought JOY - has brought ANGER read more

I contracted Maxine of Maxine's Floral and Gift to do all the flowers for my wedding in Oct. 06. Although the final tab was pricey, (think small used car "pricey") like I've always said, "Sometimes you have to pay more, to get more." (this was no exception) My wedding colors were chocolate brown and with touches of green. The floral arrangements (for church and reception) had everything from Belles of Ireland, hypericum berries, mini green mums, green hydrangeas, orchids mixed with TONS of white/cream flowers. AMAZING. GORGEOUS...STUNNING really. I have to say I got just what I wanted...elegant, organic floral design! Honestly, I am a "less is more" kind of gal, so the shop was a bit too crowded for me, but Maxine was very helpful and astoundingly creative. I'd absolutely suggest sitting down with her and offering your vision; you'll be amazed at how she makes your dreams a reality and then some! read more

Flower shop to use when you want something more cool instead of pedestrian. Also bought my mom a too-cute-for me little porcelain garden bench. Sweet - I can do sweet for a gift item, no problem. All kinds of little cute stuff - not for me, but I can manage cute for a gift item... read more

Maxine's makes me feel like I'm somewhere else.. I don't know where that somewhere else is, but it isn't Seattle. Its hard to explain without actually taking you there, but it makes my insides happy. They sell the cutest little knick knacks, scented candles and fragrances, and display arrangements of beautiful paper flowers.. aside from the real flowers of course! read more

Maxines Floral - My Bday Flowers ...they were so beautiful! - Florists Near Me

I was doing some very last minute shopping for my wedding anniversary. Um, actually it was the day of my anniversary. Anyway, I ended up here, because it was close to Ace Hardware where I was picking up the gift. I walked over to Maxines and the two ladies working at the time greeted me warmly. One of them said she had a few minutes to create something for me if I gave her an idea of what I wanted. I recognize that I completely lucked out that she had some time to make something on the spot for me. The arrangement was gorgeous and I couldn't be happier. Sadly, it's been awhile since I've also seen fresh and healthy flowers. Their friendliness and spot-on-service made it an even more pleasant experience. As an added bonus, they have a lot of cute items that they sell for women and children (soaps, jewelry, wrapping paper, cards, toys, etc.) that would make it easy for anybody needing to pick up a small gift with their flowers. I spent some time browsing while waiting for my order to be completed. read more

Maxine was so kind & helpful!!! She made some great suggestions & I couldn't be more pleased!! I called during the Christmas rush & she was so kind & patient helping me to select the perfect flowers!! Bless your heart Maxine read more

I needed to say thank you to my dog sitter as i'm extending my stay out of town. I found Maxine's flowers and masks a unique gift. It came today, just one mask and the card. They should change their picture to reflect reality. Bait and switch. read more

They must have heard you Maria cuz I went there today and their card doesn't say Pickity Patch. Maybe it still says it on the outside. I was on a secret mission and have to say that although I only bought a kooky air freshener and ordered flowers, I totally loved this place. It smelled EXACTLY like the FTD florist around the corner from my grandmother's house in San Francisco that I used to go to as a kid. Lots of things that I wanted...sparkly initial letters, funky decorated matchboxes, floral explosions of silliness and lots of pretty birds in and out of cages give the shop a fantasy quality. I even saw this cool plant I wanted that looked like green bubbles on a vine (what is that?). It's the only thing there that would go in our '50's house. Anyway, the service was good, and it's a definite shopping destination for the ultimate girly gift. read more

We used Maxine for our Wedding on October 8. Maxine and my wife were friends growing up, so I know we received extra special attention, but for a guy who doesn't pay too close attention to flowers at weddings, I was very impressed. Arbors were set up in our back yard, creating a flower framed "altar" by our pond, and the arrangements through the house and seating area in the yard had just the right touch, elegant, full, colorful. The reception had more of the same. Wonderful job, Maxine!!! read more

A girly store filled with little pricey gifts and stuff. I walk in this store when my hubby is getting coffee at Cloud city. I haven't bought flowers here, but I've bought cards and unique gift items. People there are nice and it's a fun place to be. read more

I've been in the event business in this area for over 20 years. I can tell you that you will get what you pay for at Maxine's. The quality of Maxine's flowers are the highest you can get. Her bouquets are each done with creativity and care. She is an artist unlike anyone I've met with unique expressions in her work. Maxine will sit with her customers who have events, to learn more about what they like and don't like so what they get suits them. She takes great pride of each piece that goes out the door making sure it is just right. The store is an ambiance that takes you away into another place. It's a wonderful place to pick up a gift that's unique and don't forget for any special bday the infamous candle! Maxine also gives back to the community donating what she can to make a difference - just one more reason to support your community small businesses. read more

What a dilemma to review a store that is completely not your taste and yet I'm sure appeals to plenty of other people, where there's lots of gag-me adorable stuff and pretty flowers and nice people. So while I won't be visiting again, if you like vintage and pretty things and cutsey you'll like Maxine's. Pickety Patch? Even the name is cutesy. Did I already say "gag me"? Even all the flowers run the gamut of adorable. read more

Ordered Christmas flowers as a gift. The flowered were beautiful, Maxine could not have been more helpful and created an arrangement that was amazing. My number one go to flower shop. read more

Five stars for flowers. Maxine's is the place to go for flower arrangements, as their designer is a real artist. Expect to pay more, but you get absolutely AMAZING creations. I've seen him put together flowers: just when you think it's perfect, he adds one more flower in another color and it's over-the-top cool. read more

This shop is the best , they do the coolest, most original arrangements in town. Absolutely gorgeous!!! And they have the most fabulous stuff in there. I have NEVER been disappointed with anything I've gotten there!!! Pure Eye Candy!!! read more

WOW!!! I could get lost in this place! This shop is truly a fairy world and then some! They have an amazing floral selection and gift selection. This is my #1 Birthday and Christmas shopping stop! read more

My husband often times frequents Maxine's for special occasions. I can immediately tell upon receiving the flowers that they came from maxine's and not the grocery store or pike place. The arrangements are unique and kind of whimsical. They tend to pick flowers and colors that are in season, and my bouquet often times lasts well beyond a week or two. I know the arrangements are a little pricey, but they are well worth it for the quality! Granted I also really appreciate the quality of the $5-$10 bouquets from pike place, but these just kind of have more of the "I planned something special far in advance look" vs the "oh crap..I forgot and need to find something quick look." It also feels good to support the local ma and pop store. read more

I recently chose Maxine's for my wedding . Just from driving past her shop it is so unique and fun you just want to go in. I came in with my mother and son and she was there at the front counter and took down what I wanted right away . She knew exactly what I was talking about and I instantly and a huge amount of relief fly over me as I knew she was going to give me exactly what I wanted . she's so incredibly nice to speak with and truly takes the time to understand what you are asking for. Her flowers and all put together with creativity , style , and talent . I could not be happier . the price is about what I was expecting to spend on wedding flowers :) read more

artful flower arrangements ... muted colors, nothing loud. Think Martha Stewart with personality.

Sending smiles & sunshine from the East Coast. After numerous attempts to contact Midnight Blossom and Fleur, I came across Heather H.'s yelp review. Positively meant to be. Thank you Maxine, your extraordinary interpretation is everything I had hoped to send my dear friends and more. Thank you for the immediate response, stunning execution and what matters most; care for detail. The entire arrangement feels magical, love love love the love in the mist flowers, perfect for my newly engaged friends. Without question, Maxine shall be my & should be your floral design fairy godmother from now on and always! read more

Maxine did my wedding two years ago and friends & family are still talking about how amazing the flowers were. She is unbelievably creative and talented. Since then, I've ordered about a dozen arrangements and all are equally stunning. I trust her artistic abilities unequivocally and she always delivers. Last year for Mother's Day she sent my mother-in-law a beautiful arrangement mostly of peonies that included a little teacup containing an orchid in the middle... AMAZING. She is THE BEST. read more

Beautiful flowers, gorgeous arrangements and an assortment of gifty items. This place has is all for Valentines Day, Mother's Day, your anniversay or just any day you want amazing flowers! read more

It was my partner's birthday...once again I'd worked too late. Like other times, this time I went to Maxine's. It was 5:45--they close at 6:00. I found the gifts I wanted by 5:59, but to my disappointment there was a problem with my credit card, and I'd left my debit card at home. Thinking of my partner's disappointment, the pressure was awful. But upon hearing that it was my someone special's birthday, these kind, wonderful women (one was Maxine) stayed with me for over an hour struggling along with me to resolve the problem (a security glitch) until finally the transaction was settled. I raced home with an armload of gorgeously arranged flowers, sumptuous chocolates, a lovely one-of-a-kind jewelry box, and a very funny card just ahead of my partner who was no more the wiser and absolutely entranced with my (obviously:)) well considered choices. Lest you imagine this as the only time Maxine and her fab crew has rescued an important event in my life (yes, due to my distractability), it is not. Since that first visit, they have also roundly saved a couple Valentine's Days and at least 2 more birthday celebrations. Running late or not, if you want perfection in a gift that is artfully wrapped, beyond-the-pale customer service, a laugh or two in the process, and referrals for just about anything, Maxine's is the go-to place in this town. These women do business the old-fashioned way--they earn the faith of their customers for life. 5 stars is not enough! read more

I live in the neighborhood and try to support local small businesses. I was out of town for my daughter's birthday and so I ordered a bouquet and she promised to deliver it that night on her way home from the store. I called home several times to find out it never made it. Then the next day she basically admitted that she just forgot about it. Then finally delivered a bouquet a day late in the evening. While she added a few extra treats I was only given a $6 credit on a $50 bouquet. I won't be supporting this business again and am disappointed that she did not fulfill my order on a very special day when I was not there to celebrate my daughter's birthday. read more

Maxine's never dissapoints! It is always so bright and cheerful inside and it feels like a fairy land in the middle of dreary Seattle. I always find new knickknacks and unique gifts. The flowers and decor just inspire me and the variety of tropical birds are a really nice, whimsical addition to the ambience. read more

Maxine's been in our neighborhood for years. Her store is wonderful and stocks the most beautiful and wonderful gift items. The flowers are always most creatively arranged and last a longtime. If you want a an arrangement that will be remembered by the recipient lovingly, this is the place to go! read more

WOW! I was fortuante enough to receive a bouquet this week and it is spectacular! Maxines is my new florist!
