I order a bouquet of flowers online and had it sent to a business in Brooklyn as a congratulatory gift. The staff at Stems was very helpful, fast, sent an online receipt within minutes, and the best part of all was they sent me photographs of the arrangement they put together. So often i have ordered arrangements by phone or online and have had no idea what the final product that was being delivered looked like. The receipient of the arrangement loved them so much she has decided to use Stems as their vendor to send out corporate gifts. Really excellent! read more

The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is I don't want Yelp's flawed "filter" to hide it. Stem's prices are both perfectly reasonable for what you are getting (incredible freshness and unique, aesthetic quality), and not exorbitant as far as flower shops go, either. Owners are friendly and helpful, not pushy and totally patient. read more

A girl I was dating mentioned this as her favorite neighborhood florist. I stopped by with her picture; the owner recognized her immediately and made me a wonderful bouquet that was exactly to her taste. Expensive, but worth it when you can afford. read more

The very sweet woman (I believe she's the owner) who helped me was helpful and professional. The orchid I bought is still thriving, much longer than any other I've purchased. Definitely recommend. read more

A tiny, triangular-shaped flower shop with a lovely array of flowers available by the stem...most very affordable, around $3 a flower, with some fancier ones too. Also some very interesting blooms and bud type things that are not exactly 'flowers'. The owner is very kind and helpful and does not seemat all miffed if your bouquet budget is on the low side. As mentioned previously, the flowers last a long time and are wrapped up sweetly with a hand-made tag. If someone stopped here and got me a little bouquet on their way home from work, it would just make my day! read more

I have received over 15 bouquets from Stem and they are always the most gorgeous, beautiful flowers that you have ever seen. Plus they deliver on time and are always incredibly friendly. Rado is the best! You won't be sorry. read more

We ordered a boutineer and corsage (except one that could be pinned in my wife's hair) from here and they came out really nice. We didn't really know what we were looking for, but they managed to come up with something stylish and cool. The shop is beautiful, selling lots of interesting flowers and some art and pottery too. It was $45 total for the two pieces, which felt a little expensive for flowers, but, then again, I don't buy a lot of flowers. The price was probably fine. Rado is a really nice guy. read more

I received the loveliest bouquet on Friday. The delivery man was charming and the flowers were amazing and beautifully presented in brown tissue with a red ribbon. I was sad the peonies only lasted a couple of days and the rest are on their last legs today. I would have loved to have received those directions to extend their beauty that other people have mentioned getting when they pick up flowers. Also, I'm a sentimental girl and like to keep cards to remember special moments such as this one, but the card I got was clearly written by someone to whom English is not their first language, so the message got twisted up a bit and did not reflect my sweethearts true intention. Regardless of these two issues, I would definitely buy from this shop again purely for the flowers and I would ask for information on care and do my best to make sure the message was written as I intended. read more

They easily handled a same day delivery over the phone from CA! Thanks, Stem!

I ordered flowers for my daughter when she was really sick with a virus, and they were wonderful to work with! The sales woman, Ruth, was terrific. read more

My wife and I couldn't be any more thrilled with how our collaboration with Delgis informed the floral arrangements for our wedding earlier this month! Delgis, the owner, is knowledgeable, accommodating, and the perfect balance of direct and personable. We shared several photos of the kinds of arrangements we liked, and Delgis expertly managed our expectations around what kinds of flowers we could expect to be in bloom at the time of our wedding. She and I met several times in person, and corresponded over email. I appreciated the level of professionalism paired with the fact that we were working with a neighborhood shop. It's clear that her business is a well respected and coveted one in the Fort Greene community - I highly recommend buying from Stem, whether it be a casual bouquet "just because" or for a larger event! Affordable, absolutely stunning, and excellent customer service from start to finish! Thank you, Delgis!! read more

The sweetest shop with the kindest owners. I received the loveliest Valentine's flowers from here and it was the loveliest bouquet I've ever been given! Among the things I love about Stem is that their flower displays are not hidden in coolers, but artfully displayed on tables in the middle. You're allowed and encouraged to choose individual flowers yourself or have the owners help out. Support this great neighborhood flower shop. read more

This is one of my all time favorite floral shops. The owners are so great to work with, and they always have a unique assortment of flowers. Everything leaves there beautiful whether it is a few stems for $20 or a large an elaborate bouquet. They have unique window displays and other products for sale, and I love walking by the shop every few days. read more

everything I've gotten from Stem has been beautiful and perfect. They can do any size arrangement -- and whatever size it is, it will be a work of art. The owners make the whole experience delightful. As a surprise-treat, a friend from out of town called in an order for my birthday--and then had me stop at the shop on my walk home. I was asked to pick my favorite flowers, and the owner put them together in a dreamy arrangement. Best present! I went in once and asked for a small arrangement appropriate for a funeral/loss, but one that wouldn't look at all "funerally" ... it was spot on--and by far the nicest arrangement my grandmother received--the only one she kept in her house. I also rely on Stem whenever I need a real treat for someone. Perfect for gifts -- occasions -- treats for yourself. read more

My son and daughter in law live right around the corner from these folks. They are my daughter in law's go to florist so when I want to send them flowers, I call the folks at Stem. They provided flowers when my granddaughter was born, they've sent birthday greetings, pick me ups, and even delivered after hours to accommodate schedules. Good people. Beautiful design. Love it. Thanks guys. read more

Insanely overpriced! Ordered an anniversary bouquet of white roses and set a price of $100. When I arrived the next day to pick up my flowers, I thought she was joking! I was presented with a very small (beautiful -- but very small) bouquet that I might feel comfortable paying $45 for, Never again. I left feeling ripped off...and went to another florist to get more flowers! read more

I had the good sense to use Stem as the florist for my wedding last month. I usually think that wedding flowers are boring and end up being a huge waste of money but the flowers that I got from Stem were so stunningly beautiful and effortless they pulled the whole day together. The guests couldn't stop talking about them!! Delgis (the owner) listened to exactly what I wanted and exactly what I didn't want and then created the perfect arrangements. She practically read my mind. The price was beyond reasonable and the flowers were delivered perfectly on time - she even came to the hotel to hand deliver the bridal party bouquets herself! If you want flowers that perfectly reflect you and your aesthetic and aren't just some cookie-cutter arrangements then this is the place to go. I highly recommend using Stem for all of your floral needs!! read more

They were a king's ransom and weird about delivery, but it was beautiful and the wife loves them--doesn't that say it all?

I love this shop. Delgis, the owner, is so kind and thoughtful. She has a wonderful eye for color and interesting flower varieties. This is a neighborhood gem. I am so happy it is on my way home, we are there often. read more

this place is really adorable and they have a great selection of stems. the owner was very helpful and wrapped my 3 stems with baker's twine as if i had ordered a big bouquet. the prices were a bit higher than i would've liked, but he was very helpful with tips and knowledgeable. i really liked the space as well. read more

This is the best flower shop in Brooklyn! The couple that runs it are so incredibly talented at what they do. They offer the most unique, beautiful flowers. Great atmosphere. Reasonable prices and great service. We had them do the flowers for our wedding and they looked amazing. Great place, and makes me feel lucky that I live in Fort Greene. read more

A great little flower shop. Like another reviewer wrote below, I was attracted to the shop because of what I saw through the window while looking for antiques. When I stepped in I was surprised to find it was a flower shop and by how it was layed out. The flowers are not in your face, they are artfully arranged in the center of the shop, on a table and on the floor, and it's not overwhelming, so for a very small place it is still very calming and you can take your time to look around. The owner is very nice and was helpful when I was trying to pick a flower or combination of flowers. He also wrapped the small arrangement in a nice, understated way, something my girlfriend ended up appreciating. While the flowers were kind of expensive, I understand the ones I chose were an uncommon, imported breed. I believe the single stem roses and other such flowers are more manageable there. All together, a very pleasant experience. read more

This place is great, they have a wonderfully eclectic selection of rare flowers. The price is commensurate with the quality and range of unique flora, but worth it. They also sell nice little plants and let you know exactly how to take care of them. read more

As charming and wonderful a flower shop as could be....it's like being transported to some other time and place, where you have actual conversations with the owner (who is a sweetheart in this case) and where the purchasing is as much the experience as what you bring home. I am very picky about flowers and they have the most interesting, unusual, and to me, beautiful options in the city. Always something new. read more

Stem did my wedding on July 7th, 2012. They were great to deal with, fairly priced and totally professional. Not to mention that their flower arrangements were beautiful. We would not use anyone else. read more

Stem, is an overinflated flower shop. The cost of flowers was exorbitant for the quality and arrangement. Those who have rated this store at 5 stars have much to learn about floral services offered by other qualified florists. A 60.00 dollar bouquet with a 6 inch diameter of flowers and filler is paltry in comparison to what other florists whom service clients in the manhattan and brooklyn area. For the same cost a person can find a much better and more fragrant arrangement, delivered on time to the person's desired recipient. I think the florist is rather cheap and arrogant to use a recently gentrified neighborhood clientele in selling his inflated tastes! read more

Sorry I can't support this local merchant. Agree with several reviews below, that find this shop more expensive and unresponsive to customer requests. What I can say,uncatagorically is, that Rado doesn't do as he says nor is he well suited as a flower arranger. Ordered an anthurium arrangement that was to be festive and cheerful. I was presented with (3) 4 inch flowers thrown in along with a few less than fresh, Pin Cushion Protea that looked like "I could have done it". When I questioned the $100 Manhattan like pricing, he agreed to credit my card that he had charged BEFORE I arrived! Nevermind, that 1/2 hour before I came in, the small water filled vase arrangement (rather than planted in medium) wasn't even ready (I called ahead). It apparently took him all of five minutes to put it all together! Five days later, no credit to my card requiring a call to the card company.There's always a reason that an owner doesn't respond to customer's reviews on this site. Sometime the obvious reasons happen to be true. read more

Amazing Wedding bouquet and bouteniers and corsages. This isn't a wedding flower factory. Stem is for folks who want to have a thoughtful, smart and skillful florist collaborate with them. Thank you Stem for helping make our wedding perfect! read more
