Phalaenopsis
Cindy F.

Found the perfect little orchid for my wood wall mount project at a very reasonable price. She has a nice selection of phaleanopsis, cattleyas, and other varieties I've never seen before. The owner was very friendly and gave me tips and twine to help me mount it. It came out beautiful, thank you!

We wanted to send flowers to a dear friend's special wedding anniversary, delivering an orchid arrangement was a great decision. As soon as I walked into Melissa's store, the room full of beautiful flowers mostly orchids just put me in a joyful mood. Melissa was friendly, patient and very accommodating, I picked multiple orchids in different colors and she worked her magic by building an amazing arrangement. Watching her work with artistry, speed and creativity was such a treat. I was very happy with the final product, am sure our friends will love it too. Melissa's is a wonderful store for orchid lovers, I shall be back soon.

Reasonable price and good arrangement. I ran into melissa orchids and florist through google maps while searching for florist near my sisters job. May 10th is Mexican mothers day and i needed an arrangement quickly as i was told in short notice that my sister would be in the Cupertino area. We both live in hollister but my sister travels to Cupertino for work & her schedule can put her in Santa cruz, Cupertino & San Jose all in one day. I ordered online around 10:30am and set for a 5pm pick-up but my sister decided to bump up the time to 3pm so i decided to contact melissa with the time change and she was very professional and sweet & had no problem having the arrangement ready by 3pm. My call was at roughly 12:30pm. Mind you; this location is 3min drive from my sisters work. But of course her work would also need her in San Jose and I had already felt bad about contacted melissa with the 3pm pick-up. My sister shows up at the shop at 1:20pm and By the grace of god; melissa had the arrangement ready. We're beyond happy and soo appreciative of her quick service. The arrangement is beautiful and we can't wait for our mother to see it. Thank you melissa!.

Wilted (left over since Tuesday she said)

Melissa's attitude, comments and quality of flowers said it all. My husband ordered roses and had them delivered to my work on Friday for our anniversary on Sunday. The flowers were delivered and the arrangement was horrible. All the roses were different lengths jumbled in the small vase, the filler flowers were already wilted and the water they were sitting in was clearly not clean and looked like they had been sitting for a while. When he texted her back after sending her the photos, she proceeded to give him a lesson on what a fresh flower is and when she purchased them (which was Tuesday and they were all left overs she said) and said she would be back to pick them up and would refund his money. Then she said "please do not order again from us, thanks." I have never received flowers like that especially when my husband was charged $80!!! And to tell your customer that these were all "leftover flowers"?!?! The roses were half open already. I've purchased nicer roses at Safeway! My husband felt bad that this whole thing happened this way since they were supposed to be a gift. There was absolutely no reason for Melissa to speak to my husband the way she did here was no apology either. Pretty sad and upsetting all together.

Orchid arrangement for a birthday gift

Melissa is my 'go to' shop for orchid arrangements for myself and also for special occasion gifts. Always a great selection, attentive service, and great quality. My orchids always last a long time and have even re-bloomed.

This used to be Serene Orchids. However, the owner was Melissa for awhile, I believe Serene was her sister's shop, and she took over. She has now moved to a new location, next door to the Subway, in a small plaza off De Anza Blvd. This new location is much nicer, very bright and spacious. She seems very happy with her new choice as well. I think the pricing for the orchids here are very fair, and such a wide variety of choices. The orchids typically last a good couple months, and if you take care of them well, they re grow every year. She's very patient with me as I make choices, and ask how much each orchid I like is. I've noticed if you pay with cash, she doesnt charge tax, but if you use plastic, she will. So I always make sure to bring cash. She also has her cute little Yorkie at the store with her as well, very friendly!

Needed to grab a bouquet for my partner's birthday. Owner was able to come up with this arrangement which I think came out pretty good.

Two different kinds of orchids, you pick your own container.

I had a great experience with Cupertino florist for my Daughters Birthday Party. The flowers were…read moreamazingly fresh. Also for what I paid for was really worth it!! Jay the owner was really helpful with showing and picking the right color for my event, 5 stars for sure!!

TLDR: they forgot about my order placed 5 months in advance and paid in full, resulting in using…read morethe wrong, cheap, and old flowers. they offered no apology and argued with me. Full story: I placed an order 5 months before a photoshoot where I wanted to hold a bouquet of flowers. I sent them a verbal description and a photo of what I wanted and they assured me they could do it. They quoted me for the bouquet consisting of pink garden roses, calla lilies, and lily of the valley and I paid in full as requested. The day before pickup (that we had agreed on 5 months ago), I sent an email to confirm. They replied with "Please call me to see what you are referring to." After calling, they could not find the order and after being put on hold, they eventually found it. Clearly they had completely forgot about the order. The order which they themselves said "I'll check availability (especially for lily of the valley, as it's seasonal) and provide you with an exact quote and timeline". Upon arriving for pick up, they had replaced the lily of the valley, one of the most expensive bouquet flowers, for baby's breath, one of the cheapest. Not only that, the garden roses were standard grocery store roses. The roses were also dry like paper, which isn't surprising since they had thrown it together in less than a day even though they had 5 months notice. When I asked for a 40% partial refund, I was negotiated down and patronized about how the price for the bouquet was way too low for what I had asked for because lily of the valley needs to be special ordered from France weeks in advance, etc etc. 1, it's not my fault that they under quoted, 2, I know that the flower needs to be special ordered; that's why they were given 5 months notice and I asked if the flowers would be available for that time. They also argued with me that the roses they had used were actually garden roses. The photo speaks for itself --standard roses were opened up, fluffed, and squished in the center to mimic the round shape of a garden rose, and others were unmistakably standard roses (like the one I circled in my photo). One of their employees was agreeing with me and saying that the flowers used did not match the photo and description I sent. She was shortly dismissed from the counter. They kept saying "we want you to be happy" - yet never acknowledged or apologized for forgetting the order or gave me as much of a partial refund as I was asking for. They asked me if the inspo photo I provided was photoshopped. The flowers exist in real life and they simply did not use them. They said they could create it at the time, so why would they ask that other than to make excuses? They simply forgot about the order and didn't order the right flowers and tried to pass off a cheap bouquet of old dry standard roses and baby's breath as what I asked for. I could have made what they made from a grocery store and the flowers wouldn't have been paper dry. Their tone when I was talking to them was like I was bothering them and being ridiculous for asking for money back, saying that the cheap bouquet was worth more. They said "I used extra calla lilies and I put it all together." First, there were not extra calla lilies and even if there were, it would not make up for everything else. Second, you put it together?? Are you not a florist? A florist is supposed to 1, source flowers, 2, put the flowers together. Failed on one. Bragged about the other. Sorry for not being impressed. Upon me insisting on the partial refund and arguing back with them, they offered to remake it and for them to deliver it the next day. Which would be day of the photoshoot which I had to leave in the morning for, which is why I scheduled pick up the day before. In the end, the delivery did not work for the timeline and I never got the flowers.

Seeing the full arrangement, it's even more stunning than I first realized. I also notice two roses…read more(one white and one blush), white carnations, and a soft lavender wrap that makes the bouquet feel especially elegant. Here's an updated Yelp review: I stopped in a little after 3:00 PM looking for flowers to brighten my grandmother's spirits while she's in the hospital. She isn't doing well, and flowers have always brought her so much joy. She loves taking bouquets apart and arranging the flowers throughout her home, so I wanted to find something truly special for her. From the moment I walked in, I was warmly greeted and made to feel welcome. After I shared why I was there, the staff took the time to customize a beautiful arrangement just for her. They created an elegant bouquet featuring white and blush roses, peach and white carnations, a striking white spider chrysanthemum, delicate blue delphiniums, silver dollar eucalyptus, and fresh greenery, all beautifully wrapped with a lovely ribbon. It was even more beautiful than I had imagined, and seeing my grandmother smile made it absolutely priceless. I was also pleasantly surprised to see they carry fiddle leaf fig trees, money trees, and lucky bamboo plants--all of my favorites! It's wonderful to know they offer such a great selection beyond fresh flowers. The staff and owner are always so kind, compassionate, and genuinely pleasant to do business with. They listened, cared, and created something truly meaningful during a difficult time for my family. Their attention to detail and exceptional customer service are why I'll continue coming back. Thank you for helping me bring a little comfort and beauty to someone I love. I highly recommend this florist.

I had never heard of Rose Cary Florist until an arrangement was delivered to me. Unlike some…read moreflorists who just leave flowers on the doormat, this one rang the bell which I appreciated. The flowers were beautiful and were clearly quite fresh. They were nicely arranged so every angle looked perfect. The real surprise was that one week after delivery, they still looked great! They lasted a good ten days. I added water twice, but that's it. Impressive!
