I walked inside to check them out and everybody was so friendly. If I hadn't been flying out of Seattle, I definitely would have picked up some flowers. If you like flowers, this is a must stop if you're in the U Village.

Love this store and visit every time I'm in from out of town. Lots of great plants, pots, and gifts!read more

Plants were all in immaculate condition, and I didn't see so much as a fungus gnat inside. Ended up taking home a beautifully variegated caramel marble and will definitely be returning for a couple others on my list. We were the only ones in the shop, and the owner was super nice and asked us to let him know if we had any questions, but also hands off which we appreciated (I took a good three laps around the shop, haha). It's also a pretty decent size! Two big rooms. Prices were just a little high but not unreasonable for what we were shopping for. We can't wait to go back!

They could have had a fantastic review from a local TV show personality, but not now. I was needing a bridal bouquet a groom boutonniere and flower girl flowers. I got the following rude response. From the rep Wendy: "We have a $500 minimum so I'm not sure if this will work for you if these are the only items you'll need." Terrible company.

Wendy was great at the first consultation. She understood the vision I wanted, recommended flowers that would work best and included the one flower that inspired my flower vision. When I picked up the flowers, they were all table ready, we just had to add water. Since we were traveling to Eastern WA, it was important to have everything packed well and table ready once we got there. Each bouquet and centerpiece was awesome! Thanks Wendy for making it so easy for me!

Very happy with my long distance order!…read more We ordered a last minute Lei for family member's graduation. We called ahead to confirm and spoke to a very friendly person who helped us in deciding. We then placed the order online, easy peasy. Next day the Lei was delivered and was beyond expectations! Truly a perfect experience! So happy Seattle has this gem of a business!

Two stars because something was delivered, but it bore little resemblance to the description and…read morephoto online. Friends thought it was a very paltry and unattractive arrangement, which was supposed to come as described, living plants in a basket with a handle, but instead came in an ugly dish. I could have stopped payment, but I felt, as a family business, with supposed integrity, they would acknowledge the errors. When I contacted them about the many differences between what was ordered versus what was delivered, they said basically I had ordered too late in the week to get the arrangement I had ordered. Their site only warns: "If placing an order for same day delivery, please know the order will be filled as close as possible based on flower availability that day." (I did not order same day delivery. ) Giving me no choice in the matter, they had failed to substitute comparable flowers and plants and never could explain the alternate container. Their response was quite dismissive - and I see from the reviews this is a regular event for them. When I came back saying I expected to share my experience online, they gave me a $15 refund on a $108 bill. Just...find a reliable florist. Friends, who called the arrangement a scam, a shabby match, and a sad sack set of flowers, recommended La Vassar Florist and Ballard Blossom. I myself have used Stadium for deliveries and never experienced this. So there are better options.

TARA IS AMAZING!…read more From the start I knew Tara was perfect for our wedding. She is prompt, organized, and helps you develop your vision and the wedding of your dreams. I am an out of state bride, so she really set my mind at ease with her professionalism and the great communication we had all the way leading up to the day. Her flower arrangements were so elegant and romantic, my bouquet was stunning and my bridesmaids all loved theirs. The flower girls looked adorable in their flower crowns too. Not only were our centerpieces perfect, she made the arbor of our dreams! I couldn't find exactly what I wanted online so I photo-bashed some pictures together to show her what I was thinking in my head. Not only did it look EXACTLY like what we wanted, it was even more beautiful in person. It made for the perfect backdrop for the ceremony and family portraits after. The bouquet was so beautiful, I had it preserved after the ceremony, so I could keep it forever. I really can't say enough how amazing Tara is, and how happy and thankful we are that we chose her for our special day. Thanks again!

I am delighted to highly recommend Maxine's Floral…read more 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.
