We've been to Paul's Flowers twice, both of which were for buying flowers for our dogs' witness cremation services. Conveniently located on El Camino Real, just minutes away from Pet's Rest Cemetery & Crematory, this family-owned florist has been a practical stop prior to our fur babies' services. With an onsite parking lot, we have been able to jump out of the car to make a quick purchase and head on our way in a jiffy. Paul's Flowers sells classic and modern flower arrangements as well as plants for special occasions. They also sell bouquets/bundles. For my dog, Lulu, I bought a nice, simple pre-bundled bouquet of pink carnations for $8.50. These fresh flowers had longevity - we took from the bouquet a few carnations to put in a vase at home and it took more than three weeks for them to start wilting. The staff is always attentive and helpful. At my most recent visit on the afternoon of Tuesday, January 13, 2026, the team member at the counter was very friendly and sympathetic, offering condolences to me for Lulu's passing. Heads up, though - for those who don't carry cash like me, Paul's Flowers charges a 3% credit card AND debit card fee. This is the first place that I have seen such a charge for debit card purchases. read more

Happy Fathers Day. Quality/Quantity - Taking our guest to visit her father at the cemetery. But unfortunately for us, we tried to make a pit stop at Two Pitchers in SF which took us on a different route from our 19th Ave flower shop.... And the last visit to your competitor Flowerland was a negative experience, so here we are. Huge location. Limited affordable selections. Least expensive options were the mini carnations $8.50 + tax, otherwise it was $10 + tax a bundle. When I asked the gentleman (owner) working by the front door for help, he was too busy for me. He just said the least expensive flowers are $10 over "there." It's hard for me to pay for expensive flowers when sadly the cemeteries have proven to throw away our flowers the next day. And we have tested and visited this experience in more than 5 cemeteries, all the way south to Skylawn. Sometimes I wonder if someone is reselling these bouquets... I hate to think so negatively but!!!! The young lady working the counter is much more friendly and welcoming. Ambiance - Again, a huge location. Not everything has prices, hence having to ask. Service - Self service. Decent counter service. Poor to NO salesfloor service. Price - $20, one day flowers are getting more and more expensive. If it was not for the cemeteries "cleaning out" our fresh flowers daily, I would have no problem spending more $$ to pay our respects. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success. read more

Been coming to Paul's Flowers in Colma with my family for over 15 years now, and it's always been our go-to. The ambiance is classic and no-frills, but in the best way. It feels like a true neighborhood shop, always stocked with fresh flowers and arrangements ready to go. You can tell it's been part of the community for a long time. What really keeps us coming back is the service. The staff are always friendly, patient, and very knowledgeable. Whether you know exactly what you want or need help putting something together, they always guide you in the right direction and the value and price of the bouquets are great :) Paul himself is one of a kind. He really takes care of you and makes sure everything is done right. Every time I come in, I know I'm leaving with something solid and well put together. We've come here for all kinds of occasions over the years, and they've always delivered. Consistent, reliable, and just a place you can trust. Definitely a staple for us and somewhere I'll keep going to for years to come !! read more

I came in last week to order flowers for a funeral service. The lady who helped me was very friendly and assured me that what I ordered from their catalog will be much nicer in person. Boy, she spoke the truth! They went above and beyond. The arrangement was absolutely beautiful. Everyone admired it. Thank you so much for getting everything accurate down to the delivery. And thank you for offering to place the flowers on a stand. I had no issues whatsoever and was very pleased with this purchase. read more

I've been coming to Paul's for flowers since 2020. Yes the prices for flowers have gone up exponentially since COVID, however their prices are still competitive compared to some of their competitors. I came back to pick up a dozen red roses for a friends engagement. Like always, they were extremity professional and even gave their recommendations on how to decorate them and cut them for this special occasion. The flowers are quite fresh and they often last far longer, compared to some of the more affordable options at big retailers. read more

I live in Sacramento and found this florist on Yelp. I wanted to send my friend and her family sympathy flowers and when I called them Saturday morning I ordered an arrangement from the picture I saw online. They were able to delivery the flowers before noon the same day the flowers were ordered. I also asked if they can send me a picture and let me know when the flowers were delivered. I was really happy with the beautiful arrangement and delivery was a success! Thank you Paul Flowers! read more

Paul's Flowers - Peaceful White Tribute arrangement! - Florists Near Me - Colma, California

Ordered a "deluxe" arrangement for a funeral and got a bunch of inexpensive flowers stuffed in a small vase with cheap greens stuffed around the base for $200. Looked like it was just thrown together- not done by a floral designer. From afar looked like a potted plant. Didn't think it was my arrangement ordered. Embarrassing and disappointing. read more

Erica answered my call and good lord she was patient with me! She waited for me to get on their website so that we could look at options together and figure out the best fit for our needs. She was sweet, professional, and took her time walking me through the options. Paul's was a referral from a friend and I am so glad I took his word for how good they are! read more

I ordered a floral arrangement for Mother's Day, hoping to surprise my mom with something special. Unfortunately, the flowers never arrived. When I called to follow up, staff insisted the order had been delivered--but wouldn't share any proof beyond "it was in their notes." No receipt, no photo, no confirmation. It felt like no accountability. It was disappointing and stressful, especially for such an important day. I hope they improve their delivery confirmation process to prevent this from happening to others. read more

Long, overdue review for Paul's Flowers. My family and I have been getting flowers from Paul's for over 15 years. We visit Paul's every time we visit the cemetery. We used to be able to get a really nice floral bunch for $3.50, but like everything else, inflation has increased a basic bunch to $7.50. Their flowers have always been one of the better quality ones around Colma. On a recent visit, I got five bunches for a visit to the cemetery. Upon arriving at my dad's grave site and unwrapping the bunch to place in the vase, I noticed that much of the bottom stem parts were moldy and slimy. The same happened with the other four. This was such a disappointment as I have been loyal to Paul's due to the freshness of their flowers. I felt it fair to leave 3 stars as the quality has always been good and perhaps this was just an exception. Parking is ample as they have a small parking lot and there is also street parking available right in front of the store. read more

I will no longer be ordering from Paul's flowers. I ordered a very classy arrangement for my mother's 85th birthday, instead a completely ordinary arrangement was delivered (albeit with a lot of flowers). My mother did not like the arrangement as her taste is that she likes unusual arrangements. I called the shop regarding the delivery and I believe I spoke to Paul and he said he would look into it and call me back in an hour. 24 hours passed and no call was received. After several attempts of calling (there is no voicemail set up to leave a message), I spoke with a woman who advised me that they have the right to substitute which I understand. But to not even give me the opportunity to pick something else and to deliver an arrangement that looks nothing like what I ordered? A couple of months ago I sent flowers to my friend whose mother had passed. I thought it was odd that she didn't thank me for the flowers, so I had to ask if she liked them. Turns out Paul's flowers delivered them to someone else! Had I not said something, I would have never known that my friend never received the flowers. Not happy with this florist at all and they don't seem to care. You might want to think twice about ordering from here. read more

I asked who I talked to when I ordered and they said Terry-well she was wonderful! It is Paul's for all my floral needs! 5+ Stars! TY again! My daughter in law loves sunflowers! read more

My family has been coming here for years, perhaps decades at least twice per year to purchase flowers during the two annual Chinese holidays to pay respect to the elders. These are typically around April and October on the Gregorian calendar (I commonly use before Easter and Halloween as approximate dates to help me remember). Paul's has always been our go to spot, not necessarily because of how great they are, but more by default and convenience. They certainly seem to have the cemetery market covered, with their large storefront right on El Camino surrounded by tombstones as far as the eye can see. Sure, there are a few other shops in the vicinity, but most are smaller and less visible. With that said, it is apparent that with each passing visit, service has gotten more gruff and impersonal. The workers truly act like they don't want to be there. No smiles or or any sort of greeting. "Hi," "good afternoon," and "thank you" are completely foreign concepts to them. I know that visiting tombstones isn't exactly the most joyous occasion, but the atmosphere in here is often more dreary than the morgue itself! Furthermore, they purposely hike the prices for bouquets during these two times of the year because they know patrons will pay whatever amount for them. I know this for a fact because I have visited relatives during other times of the year, and the prices are indeed lower. Of course, as mentioned, Paul's knows that customers will still fork over their hard earned cash regardless, so they can charge whatever they please. Besides the cemetery bouquets, Paul's offers your typical arrangements, but I can't imagine individuals purchasing Valentine's flowers from the graveyard florist. Then again, take that back! I know many people who are into that sort of thing... read more

Paul's Flowers - European Terrace (deluxe) - Florists Near Me - Colma, California

Customer service is the worst here. We used them because they were the preferred vendor from the mortuary we used for my mom's funeral. We purchased a rosary display made from roses. From the picture they showed and the actual flower display was very different and we were so disappointed. They did not put as many roses as shown. When I asked them they said they discontinued that item that's why it was like that. If that were the case- they shouldn't advertise the item. Other issue I had was my cousin purchased a flower arrangement and was never delivered and was supposed to be guaranteed. She paid $200 for nothing. When calling them they kept giving me the run around and I always had to call them. They told me last week that my cousin would get a refund. Until now- nothing. I had to call and follow up again and once again they said "We will check with our bookkeeper and get back to you." This flower shop was very disappointing and definitely would not recommend. They do not give good customer service and their products are not as advertised. read more

We ordered flowers for Mother's Day and they never showed up. We called Paul's and the woman there said they were delivered, but gave no confirmation other than "it was in her notes." She gave me the option of re-ordering with no discount or cancel the order. When I said I think we should get some sort of discount seeing as they missed Mother's Day and she could not confirm or prove delivery, she said "Well, Mother's Day is over, so what do you want to do?" She was rude, unsympathetic , and never even bothered to say she would confirm with her driver. Awful service and a real bummer. So much for supporting that small business. read more

I cannot thank Paul's flowers enough for the beautiful flowers for our wedding! They turned out even more beautiful than I could have ever imagined!

I buy flowers all the time and never have experienced such rude service as I did with Paul's Flowers. I ordered an arrangement for my grandmother's funeral and it never arrived. I called the shop multiple times for over 2 weeks before I got a response about a refund. Even then, it took another 2 weeks before the refund was issued. It shouldn't take a month to get a refund on something I paid in advance for, that's crazy. I will never shop there again. Like another person said, they don't even deserve a 1 they deserve a 0! read more

My in-laws are laid to rest in a nearby cemetery. Dear Hubby and I often stop at Paul's Flowers to pick up a simple bouquet of flowers to lay at their graves. The last time we were there, I was really disappointed in the whole scene. The shop was mostly empty. It looked uncared for, lacking in displays, character, or many blooms at all. I understand that in a location like this where most of the business revolves around the cemetery / mortuary, that it's not necessarily a place where people would go to look for gifts and other ancillary products like you'd find at other florists. Still, the mood presented was that of a business that was tottering on the edge of no longer being in business. The flowers themselves seemed to be of reasonable quality. No pricing was in evidence, so I felt like the staff could quote whatever price hit them that moment. Again, we've used them for years and I'd never previously had the feeling before that they had stopped trying like I did last week on a Tuesday afternoon when we dropped in. read more

I was purchasing a basket of flowers to honor my aunt who passed away at 107. I came in from out-of-state and was overwhelmed trying to read reviews.

DO NOT TRUST THEM! I ordered and paid for flowers 3 days in advance from Santiago for my moms memorial and went to pick them up and they weren't there. The attitude was too bad so sad, I'll give you a refund. Doing this to someone the day before is inexcusable. . read more

I rarely leave Yelp reviews, but Paul's Flowers really earned this one and deserves a warning to others. I ordered a bouquet for my parents' 50th anniversary -- placed it 7 days in advance, paid extra for same day morning delivery, and selected a specific bouquet arrangement. Nothing showed up by noon so I called and was told "the driver is on their way". By 7pm my parents were on their way to dinner and still no delivery. Two days later the flowers showed up when my parents were on a trip. I tried to get in touch with a manager, but was told they weren't available and that someone would call me back. No one ever did. I called back 7-8 times over the next week before I was told to "F off!" And hung up on the final time when I asked for a refund or discount. No refund. No apology. Just incredibly insulted. When it comes to reliability, professionalism, and customer service, they're a real disaster. read more

Came here one quiet morning. There were no prices on the flowers, but I watched a lady come in, pick up 2 bunches of flowers from a bucket, and I heard the man cashier say it was $10 each. I heard the total come out to be $20 even. I then proceeded to pick 1 bunch of flowers from the exact bucket. When I was ready for checkout, it was a woman cashier. She picked up my flowers, looked at the man cashier, who was in another room, and said, "15?". The man just shrugged. So I told her, that the previous customer that was just here a minute ago, bought flowers from the same bucket and it was sold to her for $10. The lady cashier shrugged without looking at me and said, "hm, okay. $10.95." I guess tax was not included in these flowers, but was for the previous customer.... so they could squeeze a few more cents out of me. I paid and left. I have come here, mainly for grave flowers, for over 15 years. I've heard of their unfair pricing that changes, depending on who comes in, but this was the first time I experienced it. They are scammers. I do not recommend this place. read more

BEWARE!! The absolute worst customer service. Flowers were ordered via online Monday morning for delivery on Wednesday afternoon. For my 25th wedding anniversary. Well Wednesday came and went no flowers. Called Thursday and was told they were prepared but forgot to be delivered and a manager would call. Well Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday after multiple attempts no manager ever called, no refund issued, no flowers, no one could do anything except call back later. Finally called Monday spoke to the manager all she said was sorry well process a refund you'll get it in 2 days. Wow!!!! That's all you can do for a customer that spent well over $150 on flowers is sorry. Well there are plenty of other florists that want business and will deliver. Will no longer give this establishment business and advise you not to if you don't want to pay good money and be ghosted. read more

6 stars if I could.. First the customer service was very great. accommodating and sweet people. I love love love Paul's Flowers. My first experience with them was when I had to order flowers for a funeral. It was obviously a difficult time. The very kind women, asked if I had an arrangement in mind from the website. When I stated no, she said she could also create an arrangement with certain flowers that I wanted and work around my budget. She offered many recommendations, from a basket to a spray stands. When I told her the Church, she knew right away it was Presbyterian and knew what flowers to include and exclude, based on their religion and how it would look inside the church. All deliveries were made on time! Besides the professionalism, generations of experience and expertise that they offer, which I could go on and on about, I just really like Paul, Larry and Patty. I never felt like they were trying to oversell me anything. They will take the time to listen to your needs and they have a lot of experience and advice to offer if you need help. A great third generation family-owned and operated local business, established in 1927 by Italian immigrants. They take great pride in their work. How often can you call a place and get one of the owners on the phone to help you? not very many... read more

July 2023. I placed an online order for a funeral spray at Paul's Flowers through lovelingly a week in advance from the date of a funeral. Paid $300+tax+fees for the deluxe Heavenly Horizons Spray. And what was delivered is not even close! Flower shop to mortuary is 2 miles away. It was supposed to be "A peaceful combination of yellow Gerbera daisies, yellow roses, purple gladiolus, lavender roses, purple carnations, stock, and sword fern are beautifully arranged in a classic spray for the service or wake." But as you can see in the picture, it has white and pink carnations! Can't even call to complain as they don't answer the phone. Don't order online! read more

If I'm ever in California.......... I always make a point to stop by these two locations.........this is always automatic for me - Colma & Sacramento. Why? The reason why I go here is to visit, & honor my loved ones that are no longer physically here with us. Just remember.............. Even if they are no longer physically here with you, they will always be a part of your life, as memories never fade, and good times will always remain strong & vivid in your mind. :) I normally drop by a flower shop just across the street from the Olivet Memorial park, but this time I stopped by a flower shop about two blocks away called - Paul's Flowers. I'm glad I stopped by this place, as Paul's Flower shop had a very huge selection of flowers! Prices were very reasonable. Service was great, as the young lady was very friendly & helpful. She even offered to cut my flowers so it would fit properly in the vase, as the flowers had very long stems. As I was waiting for my flowers, I was chatting with her, and found out that Paul's Flowers has been in business since 1927! What an incredible family business! I will bookmark this place, and the next time I'm in town, I will be sure to come back again to get more flowers read more
