Yelp Review 2023 #24:…read more Even on a cold and rainy day, Amsterdam's Bloemenmarkt still has a charm you simply cannot resist. The vibrant colors makes you forget just how cold it is on a winter day. You can buy fresh flowers, seeds, bulbs, and stuff for your garden. There are souvenir shops and restaurants across this flower market. As much as I would have loved to grab something from here to take home, it would've gotten confiscated at the airport anyway and even if we're allowed to bring seeds and bulbs back home, there's no way it would survive Vegas heat. But it was nice to look around and see the beautiful flowers. It is "the world's only floating flower market" on the canals of Amsterdam. It's a free activity until you buy something.

If you love flower/garden shops and especially love tulips then you have to check out Bloemenmarkt…read more It is unique also because it is a floating market as many of the stores are on floating "boats" on the canal. I ended up getting some gifts for family/friends. The area could get a little crowded, and next to the flower markets there are also a lot of separate tourist/gift stores. Even if you are not into flowers, this place is worth checking out as it is near the city centre.

I find it shocking that the arrangements he creates he lets go for the very meager prices that he does. In America we would pay 4-10x as much for something not nearly as beautiful. It's a shame I don't have pictures to post but will be sure to in the coming future. He delivers weekly to a gallery in the spiegelkwartier and it brings me ever renewed joy to see his new creations every Monday. I brought an arrangement of his flowers to someone mourning their lost loved one. The funeral director happened to be there (who most probably sees many, many flowers) and said that she should probably have *this* florist do the flowers for the funeral. A bit of a somber example, but a solid testament to his work. Bravo :) (And in a very cute shop in a convenient location,I may add)

This flower stand is located on the busy street between the Anne Frank House and our hotel. before…read morewe left home one of our neighbors, who had lived in Holland, suggested we pick up some tulips on the street since we're going to be in our hotel for 5 days. After we left the Anne Frank House we stopped here. They had a glorious assortment of tulips for €3.50. Then I saw some beautiful daffodils for about the same price. But when I saw bunches of freesias for €2 it was all over but the sniffing and the choosing. As much as I love tulips, freesias are my favorite flowers. It was too cold for the smell to fully develop, so I chose a beautiful double pink bunch. I asked if he would prune the ends and he asked which hotel we were staying at and cut them to the perfect length. When we returned to the hotel I requested a vase and a few minutes later a man was at our door w/ two for me to choose from. I chose the taller of the two and the vase and flowers sit beside my computer on the desk, looking beautiful as they open and smelling good.

The owners take special care in putting together your favorite combination. The interior is really nice and serene, quite a contrast from the scene outside. I love the flower vases on sale.

My cousin and I sort of stumbled into the Flowermart. We were amazed at the stalls of tulips and…read morethe beautiful, bright colors that made it feel more like looking at art than flower shops. All the little stalls sold plants and seeds for planting, and one was more beautiful than the next. Even if gardening isn't your thing, this makes a nice pit stop along the way if looking to put something more regional and authentic into your itinerary of Amsterdam.

Massive outdoor flower market in Amsterdam with booth after booth of flowers, seeds, roots and…read morebulbs. Most of the booths had repetitive items but the prices varied, so shop smart. We learned during our private cultural tour that in order to transport certain flowers to another country the bag needs to include a mandatory certification seal. Only a few shops had these seals for the Tulips, but we found two places and purchased Tulip bulbs for 8€ from one of the vendors who removed them from a cooler. Beware that this market area gets extremely busy with tourists so get there early at opening.

Have you ever met someone, doing their job, living their career and thought *Yep, this person was…read moremade for this.* That's how I felt every time I walked into this sweet little shop. Lousie is like a hummingbird, quickly darting all over, from petal to stem, flowers sort of falling off of her hurried ways, leaving a trail of petals and pollen wherever she goes. She's often busy, but never makes you wait without acknowledging you there. She has a massive selection of gorgeous flowers, it'd be difficult to find even one flower not in perfect condition. And she has a knack for putting together a beautiful arrangement. Probably my most favorite flower shop. There's no excuse why you shouldn't visit her for your next treat to yourself or flower gift.

Online ordering was easy, and since I placed the order for delivery in a town about an hour outside of Amsterdam, they kept me updated via email on the delivery status of the local florist they were partnering with.
