***UPDATE*** The customer service team responded incredibly fast and allowed me to pick a replacement and send it over right away. The order came quickly and the plant was beautiful. This type of customer service will definitely bring me back. I appreciate the prompt response and resolution. I am incredibly disappointed in the product. This was for a 60th birthday and the plant arrived dead. Air plants do not die in under 2 days. This was either sitting around or someone didn't even do a quality check. How embarrassing to try and send something special and have it show up like this! read more

The worst value for money of any flower or bouquet business I have ever used hands down. I paid $157 for flowers that were far worse quality than the $20 bouquets at Trader Joe's. I've never seen a business in the US put less interest or care into their product. read more

UrbanStems - Two very small bundles of flowers, several were brown and damaged, no vase, $157 plus shipping. Not what the picture looked like, of course - Florists Near Me

I am disgusted with this company. I ordered Sympathy flowers for my aunt because my uncle died. It took over a week for my droopy, half dead flowers to arrive. I complained immediately and they offered to expedite an upgraded sympathy bouquet. Two days later, another droopy lifeless arrangement arrived. Not to mention, neither bouquet looked like the picture on the website. This company packs up beautiful blooms in a box without any cool packs or water source, loads them into a hot truck and let's them travel that way for days!!! This is despicable...and then charges a fortune for them. They ought to be ashamed. No one should support this business. If you noticed on their website, they do not have a feedback section. They don't allow reviews on their website. If I had googled reviews ahead of time I would never have used them. There are countless complaints just like this!! read more

Hands Down- the worst roses I have ever seen much less received. I'll happily revise my rating when my husband gets his money back. This is just shameful. read more

Horrible service. Ordered flowers for Mother's Day delivery (they offered) agreed to either Saturday the 13th or Sunday the 14th delivery. Flowers were received May 23rd. 10 days late....? When I called Monday morning to see what happened... UrbanStems repeatedly blamed the shipping company over and over, stating that they emailed me.... They emailed me at MIDNIGHT on MOTHERS DAY. I live in Florida, she lives in Connecticut.... How would I make alternative arrangements day of? If I were able to bring her gift, I would not have needed to order from this group of incompetents. When I called... I was given the run around... can't get a manager on the phone, or to respond to my email. FINALLY my order is delivered. I was promised a double order since they messed up so badly.... Yet another broken promise.....(They also offered to write a hand written note taking the blame for the error) the email shows a double order of all products.... Yet she received only one order. I would have ordered from this company over and over again.... It's a shame... I really wanted to like this place. read more

I ordered two Mother's Day bouquets to be delivered the day prior. Both arrived in ROUGH shape. All of the roses and filler florals were already wilting and one of the larger flowers on one bouquet was actually squished in the shipping box edge. They were clearly put together quickly without much care. The Happiness team wouldn't do anything to remedy with even a partial refund because I missed the 5-day window (I messaged on day 7). For the expensive price, I expected better, much better. read more

Lost my online delivery information and left a message on my cell 15 minutes before the fedex truck arrived. Really low quality staff. No one seems to know what their job is. I'll never waste time again with this service. read more

I wish I had read the reviews before ordering. What I received looked nothing like what was advertised online. Online photos show a big beautiful bouquet, what was received is nothing of the sort. For the price paid I could have bought 5 bouquets from my local supermarket. read more

The worst online flower company I've ever dealt with. My daughter paid $138 for 2 bouquet of flowers on Mother's day. When the flowers arrived the flowers were literally rotten. They apologized and sent the second bouquet and it was the same thing. Please be aware of these scammers. They don't used local florist. My daughter was devastated read more

Ordered flowers 2 weeks before Valentine's Day to be delivered on 2/11. I called on 2/11 and they said there was a delay and they would be delivered on 2/14. I called on 2/14 and they said there was no movement on my order and gave me credit. I had to specifically ask for a refund. No notifications, I had to proactively follow up each time. read more

My mother sent me a picture of the flowers the day she received them - the roses looked wilted & brown around the edges, & the whole bouquet was a mish-mash of colors that looked nothing like the shades of pink shown in the product picture on the website. I paid $120 for this bouquet!! I was so upset. I only rated my experience with your company 2 stars because at least the flowers were delivered on the day that I requested. I will not be ordering from Urban Stems again. read more

Terrible - worse than not good. I placed four orders. One was delivered on time and was what I ordered. One was not what I ordered and late. Additionally, when it arrived, the flowers had huge rotten spots. My third order was not delivered on time. When I called, I was told it won't be delivered for another week. My fourth order has also not arrived on time. The customer service it terrible, I received no notifications that they would be late until after they were late and I contacted customer service. And, after my second order was delivered I had an email telling me it would be late, and not what I ordered. I read this company was great. It is not. They will also try to give you a $25 store credit for messing up an order that was over $100. I would give them 0 stars, if I could do that and still leave a review. read more

I received flowers on Mother's Day as a gift from my children. The box was left on the side porch for an hour as I wasn't home. Of course as soon as I "found" them I cut and put them in water. Some of the flowers didn't make it to the vase as they had already lost petals or were broken. Now, two days later and more than half the bouquets flower heads have drooped. As I mentioned, this is a gift that apparently is a subscription. I will update this review next month if things are better. I realize Mother's Day can be a nightmare! To be continued... ***update*** Their customer service is phenomenal. I'm sure it was such an issue because of Mother's Day. They have contacted me and are working on a solution. Greatly appreciate the effort! read more

My daughter ordered a very expensive arrangement from Urben Stems Thursday for me for Mother's Day. She was informed they were next day delivery and was excited when she was informed they were out for delivery Friday. Later Friday evening she received another email informing her they would not be delayed till Monday. After receiving them at 10 am. Central time today they are awful. Being in Texas and realizing they were delivered by Fedex I can only assume they sat in a nice warm truck or hot ware house all weekend where it was 85 degrees outside, no telling what it was inside. As you can see by the crushed box they were NOT handled well to begin with, but the fact that only 2 calla lilies survived should tell you something. The stems of them were total mush and the flowers themselves were brown around the edges. The tiny purple roses are falling apart every time someone touches the vase. Defiantly does not look like the picture presented. These are NOT worth the $169 she paid for them. My daughter is a young professional and was excited to have something nice delivered to me for the first time, for Mother's day and you spoiled her excitement first when they were not delivered like stated, but then the absolutely poor quality of product had her in tears today. read more

Flowers delivered hot and wilted. Nothing in there for moisture. If I'm spending good money on flowers, I expect them to be better than Walmart. Called and to get a refund but they wanted to give me a gift card instead. As if I'm going to buy more flowers from there. Got a full refund though. read more

This was my first time using them for Mother's Day! What a huge disappointment! They were supposed to arrive May 10th snd didn't get to my mom until May 13th after sitting in a truck for 4 days without water. They were dead when my mom received them, horrible. The only positive was the customer service team which was very responsive and they issued a refund. I would much rather my mom received the flowers. I ended up purchasing flowers elsewhere for Mothers Day. I won't be using them again. read more

SO BAD. I ordered three sets of flowers for mother's day for my mother, mother in law, and stepmother after seeing positive reviews of the company in NY Strategist. Two of the orders were completely messed up (one never arrived, one arrived brown and with all the petals falling off). But by far the more frustrating issue was the TERRIBLE customer service, nearly 10 emails back and forth, faulty information, repeating what seemed like formulaic language that didn't respond to the actual conversation we were having, and a refusal to offer a refund referencing the t&cs saying we needed to submit photos within 72 hours... on an email chain where we submitted photos and a complaint within fewer than 24... just outrageous. I've had to go out to my credit card company to open a dispute try to seek a refund. read more

I would give zero stars, if possible. I have used this company many times and highly recommended them to friends and online. However, I sent my stepmom flowers that were to arrive May 7th, prior to Mother's Day, and UrbanStems never sent them, never notified me they did not, and, when I contacted them, did nothing to resolve the situation. Had I not specifically asked my mom if she received them, I would have never known and been out about $100. After 3 emails and a 19 minute phone call where I was repeatedly told they would place an order to be delivered on the 14th, I was finally told they had no inventory until the 18th of May. Eleven days AFTER my order was to be delivered. If they can't fill orders, they should not accept them. If they accept an order and cannot follow through, they should contact the customer. Super disappointed in this whole ordeal and now I have to go order from a local florist. Save your time, money, and patience and order locally. read more

I ordered flowers in April 25th for Delivery May 10th. They never showed up. I contacted Customer service to be told they would ship them for delivery on May 12th, two days after Mothers Day. I told them no, please refund. Their response was to send me their Terms and Conditions. The refund policy: UrbanStems refunds only with a cancelled ordered or damaged orders. Or (the big kicker) they will provide an account credit for future purchases. Really? So you are forced to use their horrid service to get your money worth if they miss an order delivery date and never contact you to tell you. This is horrible. I should have read the reviews before trying this company. What a horrible experience. Do not recommend this company and I will never use them again. Please read the reviews from others and don't waste your money here. Order from a local florist! read more

Ordered an expensive bouquet for Mother's Day. Arrived with brown flowers, broken stems. Delivered on Wednesday before Mother's Day, in the garbage on Friday before Mother's Day. Called customers service and was told "send pictures." Shipment was sent from Illinois, I'm in Iowa. Sorry but never again. Promised a replacement...haven't seen it yet. read more

Expect exceptionally over priced flowers that, when delivered very, very late, look nothing at all like what you purchased. Stay away.

Please do not order from them!!! Terrible company. I was told at checkout that the flowers would be delivered in a specific window & when i called to confirm they not only couldn't confirm the original time, but I also couldn't return & order the flowers from another store... Please go anywhere but here for your flower needs, trust me they are crooks! read more

I paid $157.00 to have Dutch tulips delivered for my sister's birthday. The flowers arrived without food, which I found surprising. I responded to the internal review indicating the problem and that I won't use their service again. The Happiness team responded with an apology, internal next steps, and 10% off my next order. There won't be a next order. read more

UrbanStems flowers arrived dried out, yellow and molding. Not for sending to Arizona when temps are forecast to be above 80 degrees. Delivery failed on scheduled Saturday, so the same package was delivered on Monday. Terrible! A resend on Tuesday was not much better. For your business' sake do not ship from LA County to metro Phoenix, especially in the warm months. I had stop my wine club membership for similar reasons, until one wise winery started putting dry ice cold packs. read more

Very disappointing! I ordered the autumnal palette ($170 plus shipping and handling), expecting to receive the beautiful arrangement as shown online and ended up receiving a very underwhelming bouquet. Incredibly small in comparison to photo advertised, wilted flowers. To top things off, the vase has sharp edges, making it painful to pick up and even cutting you if you are not too careful. I will not be ordering from them again. I will post two photos.. what was advertised and what I received. Only positive thing was that it arrived on scheduled date and package was wrapped well. read more

Flowers were sparse and didn't last long enough. Just a few days. The Happiness team resolved the issue by sending an another bouquet.

This was the WORST experenience ever ordering flowers. The order was supposed to arrive the Friday before Valentine's Day and is now expected to arrive 2/15 but still has not arrived yet. When I contacted customer service to determine a resolution to the matter, the representative claimed that I would receive an email shortly thereafter with some sort of resoluton. That email never arrived. I have used UrbanStems before with positive results BUT this was the absolutely WORST experience ever. I will NEVER use this company again. I cannot rely on this company to provide the paid for product on time and then to cancel the order after they did not deliver on time. Companies like this exist in order to deliver flowers or gifts for special occasions. I have ZERO TRUST that this company can indeed deliver. read more

Be warned. If your flowers never arrive, you will NOT receive a refund. Only a "store" credit. Apparently, this policy is on the fine print when you order. read more

Every girl loves to receive flowers at work so when my receptionist called me down to pick up a delivery, I got a little excited. I was surprised to see this box with "UrbanStems" on the outside. I'd never heard of them, but man, what an introduction! When I've received flowers from their national competitors, I have to open the box, unwrap a ton (a ton!) of plastic, find a vase, cut the stems, pluck some dead petals because the flowers don't seem that fresh. You can tell the flowers traveled a long way and that isn't exactly personable. Don't get me wrong, I'm appreciative and because I LOVE flowers, I'll do the work, but it is a little bit more of a hassle. Today, I received a dozen pink roses in a carrying case and the flowers were wrapped in a little bit of plastic and a couple of rubber bands, nicely tucked into a vase. I didn't have to do anything but take the plastic off and pour water into them. They also came with a nice card with my private message typed in handwriting font. I hear this is a local DC company and I plan to use them in the future. I'm quite impressed. read more

So pleased with my UrbanStems purchase! Better than expected & the plant was the best choice. Arrived on time & was so happy it was delivered on time - with a photo notification of delivery! Will absolutely use UrbanStems again & for me the plant was better in person than in the photo. Thanks UrbanStems you did not disappoint this pre Valentine's Day ! read more

UrbanStems - Spider plant - Florists Near Me

My boyfriend ordered me a bouquet from Urban Stems for my birthday. On the website, it says that the flowers are hand delivered. FedEx actually delivered them, and when I received it, the flowers were dried up and shriveled. The stems had not been immersed in water for a long time, probably two days, and therefore were brown at the tips and already well into the dying phase, unable to be resuscitated. When my boyfriend called Urban Stems to ask why FedEx delivered, Urban Stems said that the flowers were shipped directly from the growers, and blamed the growers for the dying flowers. See photo for the dried and browning tips of the flowers. Sad that my birthday bouquet arrived in such horrendous condition. DO NOT BUY FLOWERS FROM URBAN STEMS. read more

I ordered flowers for my 1 year anniversary from UrbanStems. Unfortunately, a few days before the scheduled delivery date, they emailed me to say that there was a problem with this crop of flowers and they were "not up to their standards". They changed the order to a different one and sent me those flowers instead, without offering me option of a refund or my choice of alternate flowers. The flowers that did arrive were peonies that had not blossomed yet. Their instructions say to give the peonies 2 days to blossom, so when they did not blossom after a couple of days (picture included) I wrote to UrbanStems. Unfortunately, as this was after the deadline for their 72 hour policy, the best they could offer me was 10% off my next order with them. So I paid $100 dollars for flowers that did not arrive, only to be shipped flowers I did not order without my consent (granted they did refund me $4 for the price difference between the flowers), and unfortunately those flowers were clearly flawed. Stay away from this florist for any special occasion you may have. read more

UrbanStems - The flowers in "full bloom" - Florists Near Me

This review is for those considering gifting the 105.00 per floral bouquet SUBSCRIPTION SERVICE from UrbanStems. I have received the bouquets for the last 4 months. While bouquets have been fresh and beautiful they are not always 105.00 worth of flowers. Still a lovely bouquet. First bouquet came with a small floral scissors which are excellent quality and a plain glass vase. But this review is about your RECIPIENT ---things to consider before sending a subscription of flowers from UbanStems to your friends or family or work associate: --It is best for them to be home or close to home when the flowers are delivered. I travel and since I didn't know when the next delivery was coming I returned to a box of wilted wet and dead flowers. When I contacted Urban to ask the delivery date for the next delivery they said I don't know probably the same time as last time. Rep would not look into it and no offer of a solution. Not exactly the best customer service. --When the box arrives be aware of the approximately 20-30 minutes it takes from box to vase: Flowers come packaged in a long cardboard box. Unless there's a large space available for the box in the fridge there's an IMMEDIATE need to attend to the flowers. RIGHT NOW. No matter what is going on in life at that moment. Inside the box is a bouquet wrapped in fabric and secured by rubber bands and zip ties. Time to cut the bands and the zip ties and unwrap the flowers... After the flowers have been freed from packaging there is prep prior to placing in the vase... Cutting to fit the vase, removing lower leaves etc. This time there were two (wrapped in fabric and secured with rubber bands and zip ties) bouquets of sunflowers with small coverings on each bloom. Removal was easy enough but tedious as its 12 blooms. Following flower prep there is the packaging to deal with. Throwing away packaging and then breaking down the box for recycling. Wiping down the area where flower prep took place. You get the idea. NOT complaining, just saying its an effort every time the box arrives. And it goes without saying that I very much appreciate the gift and especially the thought behind it. Again this is for the SUBSCRIPTION SERVICE so it comes every month. If it is a one time gift then I recommend it. The presentation in the box and the flowers themselves are impressive. read more

Truly excellent company with great customer service! I took a chance on them after seeing an ad on Facebook, and wasn't disappointed! I chose a time of 9-12am and the bouquet arrived about ten o'clock! I'm used to window times being expanded or wrong with other companies so I was quite happy with the quick & efficient service! So long as the flowers last I will be thrilled! Thanks Urban Stems! You surpassed my expectations! I look forward to ordering from you again :) read more

UrbanStems - Flowers on arrival still in the box! - Florists Near Me

I'm late to the party on UrbanStems, but I've never been excited about a flower delivery service so I'll chime in anyway: it's about time the flower delivery business got an updated model! Usually, sending flowers is a thoroughly underwhelming experience at best - you pick from pretty bouquet photos and try to decide if a small bouquet looks too cheap, knowing that the add-ons, shipping charges, and other fees will just about double the cost. The actual bouquet is never as nice as it looks online, and bad service may get you a discount on your next order - you know, the same discount you get every week from the spam email that you never signed up for. The last straw for me was after a flower delivery service that shall remain unnamed (ok, it was Teleflora) flat out didn't deliver my Mother's Day bouquet to my mother-in-law. I searched for an alternative (I believe I might have actually Googled "flower delivery that doesn't suck") and found UrbanStems. I'll echo the same pros noted in other reviews: chic, modern bouquets that actually match the photo; no filler blossoms; same day delivery for no extra charge; all fees included up front in the bouquet price; fantastic customer service. The only con I can think of is that bouquets often sell out quickly. On my first order, the bouquet I ordered ran out and UrbanStems automatically upgraded to the next best bouquet. I then received email updates and even a photo of the courier holding the bouquet in front of the destination address. No more missed bouquets here! read more

I am extremely disappointed... I was really looking forward to sending my sister beautiful bouquets after giving birth to her first born.... flowers arrived at the hospital 2 days late. They were already discharged by that time....Flowers arrived totally wilted! Who wants to receive wilted and partially dead flowers as a gift?! It was in awful condition and hardly looked anything like the online photo. How embarrassing! You'd think spending $150, you would get some top notch flowers! Nope. I definitely should've checked out the other yelp reviews first. Very upset about this experience. read more

My first time ordering from here will unfortunately be my last. I spent way too much money on a double order of lilies for my mom for Mother's Day expecting them to be beautiful and healthy upon arrival. I have fresh flowers ALL the time, so I know how to properly care for cut flowers. These lilies were horrendous. First of all, there was not what I would consider a "double" order of lilies within the bouquet; there wasn't as many as the photo or description showed. Second, about 90% of the buds never opened, and just turned brown and withered and died within days. It was honestly awful, and I'll never be ordering flowers from here again. I reached out to customer service and they refused to give me a refund. They did offer to send out a new bouquet of flowers, which is a nice gesture but honestly I wasn't too keen on trying it again and I just wanted my money back. They refused. read more
