I came here for flowers for my wedding. They made what could have been a stressful experience very enjoyable. I was in the market for white calla lilies and something purple to go with it. I tried ordering a bride's bouquet short notice from Ben White Flower Co., which their website says they do, but a.) they could not get me calla lilies or irises, and b.) ultimately their designer was too busy to make the bouquet. This turned out to be a happy accident, since Austin Flower Company had the flowers I wanted and then some. I got my lilies and irises, plus veronica. They also had some rad dark purple small calla lilies, but I passed on them when the clerk warned me they were $30 a bunch. However, once he heard I was there for wedding bouquet materials, he offered his expertise, and demonstrated how to use hydrangea to set up the flowers in the bouquet without hassle - and so I went home and made a badass bouquet. In the end, he gave me a rad wedding present, too - slipping the purple lilies in the package with the rest of my purchases. read more

I LOVE Austin Flower Co.! It is very close to my work, so I can pop in after work and create a great arrangement for my honey and myself. Having a great place to get flowers was on my list of things I wanted when we moved to Austin and I am so happy to have found Austin Flower! I also adore how they wrap your flowers up in colored tissue paper and tie it up with raffia. You walk out holding your purchase like a beauty queen! Everybody..do the wave! Anywho, LOVE IT! read more

I did the wedding flowers for my nephew and his bride in Austin in October, 2019. I live and work out of state, and found Austin flowers. They could not have been more wonderful! They helped me find what we were hoping for, and did their best to suggest subs if needed. The final results were beautiful, and the bride and groom were overjoyed! Hope to work with them again!! Thank you, Garrett and Gaynor! Diane, DLDCOLOR read more

PRICE GOUGING! PRICE GOUGING! PRICE GOUGING! OK, I gave them one star because it is not possible to give Austin Flower Co MINUS TEN MILLION STARS. Comes Mother's Day and what does Austin Flower Co do? They raise their prices for two dozen roses from $20 to $35. Huh? I have been a loyal customer for 10+ years but I will not darken their doorstep ever again. Why would a business gouge their loyal customers on Mother's Day? If you think it is OK to double prices just because it is Mother's Day --- well, OK for you. Screw these price gougers. read more

I've never met the owner of this place, but his people skills leave something to be desired. I was hoping I might get Austin Flower Company to donate some of their spent flowers to a nonprofit event I was hosting recently. This company boasts on their website that they generously donate to a number of charities, and since spent flowers are ones they're going to throw away at the end of the day, this donation wouldn't have cost them a thing. Working for a nonprofit that routinely requests donations, I'm very accustomed to hearing the word "No" from potential donors. And if a simple "No" was all I'd gotten, that would have been fine. But I emailed, called and left messages, and stopped by the store a number of times, and got no response from the owner. When after several days I finally managed to stop by the store when he was in, he wouldn't even speak to me directly. Instead he sent a rather surly employee out to dismiss me with a huffy "We don't do that," and a look of disdain that could have melted steel. I happen to know they DO "do that." They've donated to our events in the past even. And again, we weren't asking them for anything that would have cost them a dime-- only what they would have thrown out at the end of the day. Still, it's certainly his prerogative to say no. But instead giving me the courtesy of a face to face rejection (after ignoring me for almost a week,) he passed me off without so much as "thanks for your interest," to be brushed off by some indignant minion. I can get flowers anywhere, and I can get them for cheaper, and with less snotty attitude. read more

Staff was second to none. I was advised that I could make a bouquet uniquely to my standards and from the expansive selection, you might ponder on the urge of wanting the entire nursery. The place is upbeat with a jubilant atmosphere. All the flowers were vibrant as a happy fairy tale and healthy like a horticulturist had full control over photosynthesis from the sun, moon, clouds and stars. I commend to the favorable notice that AustinFlower Co. is an efficacious florist! read more

Austin Flower - Caught in the rapture of beauty! - Nurseries & Gardening Near Me - Austin, Texas

HAD to write about the CORAL PEONIES!!!! AMAZING! Every day they are another, gorgeous color (as foretold by the salesperson). Peonies have long been my favorite flower... Now coral is my favorite- favorite! read more

Look no further for world-wide sourcing of uniquely sourced flora with a super hip staff that enjoys off-beat humor. I've gone here for over 29 years I used to work for Gardens next door when I was in college. My boss James would go : " Jimmy the " mums " are parched I was the water boy. Several bar ownerships later and now my own micro Hotel I go there every week. These people know what they are doing and if a flower looks droopy it's under the chopping block ! read more

I bought succulents yesterday for a friend and the florist was extremely helpful and nice! He told me specifically how to care for the plants and gave me tissue papers to wrap then with and a box to carry them out. I will be coming back to buy more flowers and plants in the future :) read more

Love their selection, prices and amazing customer service! They were all so helpful and I appreciate their suggestions and giving me wholesale prices on some of the more expensive flowers. read more

Austin Flower - Nurseries & Gardening Near Me - Austin, Texas

I went here to by some flowers for DIY centerpieces for my wedding. They had a great variety of flowers and greenery- and I got some really interesting stuff. Their hydrangeas were a little beat up and if you want a number of the same color I'd come earlier in the day. Other than that, checkout was speedy and no complaints. Also, the parking situation is good. Note: be careful googling how to get here! We got super lost and ended up getting directed to King Flowers or something like that, which has nowhere near the selection of Austin Flower Co. I'd go back!! read more

I got married Nov. 4th and had a completely DIY wedding. I did not want to spend a lot of money on flowers but I still wanted some pomp and paper flowers don't seem to be a cheaper option for what I needed. I searched around various websites like fiftyflowers for diy sets but I had a small wedding (28 people) and their bundles are huge. After deciding on the look I wanted and coming up with a recipe, I called and spoke to someone over the phone (I don't remember his name but he knows his flowers). I must have kept him on the phone for atleast 30 minutes on a busy Sunday. We went over cheaper options for some of the more expensive flowers and I placed my order. I spent HALF of what I was planning to spend with fiftyflowers but I'm almost certain I got just as many flowers since we changed switched out certain varieties for cheaper options! And he was totally right about the cheaper options. The ranunculus (sp?) was GORGEOUS. And they dry amazingly. Who knew that??? A few days before my wedding I picked up 3 really large boxes of flowers, a lot more than what I was expecting for the price, and another really nice person (lady with really short black hair) gave me the specific care for each and every flower and they definitely threw in a few surprises for me! I'm not sure why they are so nice in there but I had a wedding weekend in which my family members spent valuable time together making flower arrangements and I know they loved it! I will have those memories forever and I'm so glad I decided not to use a florist and was able to put those funds into the weekend experience for my family. read more

I have to wonder if some of the folks giving horrid reviews got confused and chose the wrong Yelp listing! I visited three times in the course of ordering flowers for my wedding, and each visit was absolutely beyond reproach. I was getting kind of despondent in my options for flowers, thinking I'd have to spend a few hundred dollars for even the "cheapest" routes -- ordering bulk online or ordering from Central Market -- till I stumbled on Austin Flower Co. When I first visited, Dillon (sp?) walked me through the entire process of ordering, followed me through the cooler to give me info on the flowers I was interested in, and even gave me warnings like, "We may not be able to get exactly that species/color/size when you order, but we'll put in special requests to get it as close as possible." Of course -- flowers aren't man-made, even if they're farmed, and I'd rather have good quality than exact color or size. I went back later to order and had the same wonderful experience, even though I ordered less than $150 worth, a small order for them, I'm sure. Dillon told me how long to expect the flowers to last, how to care for them in transport and once I got home and began arrangements, all in great detail. When they came in, I got a call the day before I was scheduled to pick them up telling me they couldn't get mini-gerbers in 2 of the colors I'd requested -- which Dillon had specifically warned me might be a problem when I ordered. When I went to pick them up, I found they had substituted pom daisies of the same color as an option. Dillon opened all the boxes, made sure I was happy with each batch of flowers, and asked how I wanted to handle the mini-gerber issue. He again went into great detail in how to transport and care for the flowers. The flowers themselves -- roses of two colors, gerbers, some mini-gerbers, and pom daisies -- were GORGEOUS and stayed fresh until we stopped putting them in water (a few days after the wedding when we went out of town). Those left in water were still fresh enough to enjoy when we returned, 9 days after I first picked them up. I cannot recommend Austin Flower Co. too highly!! read more

The best place ever. I recommend to the world. Have specials and fresh flowers. Awesome prices read more

This is my go to place for flowers. I usually have an idea of what I'm thinking, and they will help you find something to compliment what you're going for. They do wholesale and retail. When do you find someone that will help you put it together and even be thinking about what the best color of the tissue paper on the outside of the bouquet? I saw some pretty cool plants as well - a yellow pepper potted plant looked pretty awesome. read more

I like this shop because of the variety of cut flowers. I can usually find exactly what I'm looking for. Unfortunately it's not a 5 star experience because the flowers I purchase here never last as long as the ones I buy at Central Market. Which seems like the opposite of logical. read more

I don't buy flowers often, but when I do I like to get good ones. I left here with some gorgeous garden roses and some eucalyptus branches for my lovely wife. The staff was very friendly, the variety and selection were stunning, and the experience as a whole was very easy. read more

I will never go anywhere else in Austin to buy flowers. All the guys (yes, GUYS!) were friendly and helpful and just great. The selection is the best I have seen in town, the prices and the most fair. And they have succulents!! Not a ton, but an interesting variety at great prices. Wish they had more pots and vases, but that's OK. I know I will never leave this shop empty handed! read more

Great customer service, great selection, and competitive prices! I will definitely be going back. My sister and I were working on a mock-up bouquet for her wedding and Austin Flower Co. was very accommodating in helping us find just what we needed. read more

I rarely leave reviews, but I felt they went above and beyond to make my experience there wonderful. I brought my 5 year old son and 2 year old daughter to pick out some flowers for mom for Valentine's Day. they had a great selection and my children enjoyed picking each flower to male a bouquet. My son started to collect the flower petals on the ground and wanted more. He asked them if they had more. With out hesitation the young gentlemen couldn't find any. so when my son was looking he grabbed some fresh flowers and pulled the petals off and gave them to my son. This made my son's day and that kind little act made my day! I'll be buying all my flowers from here from now on. read more

This company is brilliant. We were helped by 3 different employees including the owner, and everyone gave us friendly and well-informed service. We placed a (rather last-minute) order for our wedding, and we got prompt updates and assistance when one of our choices wasn't available. Thomas suggested substitutes and got us back on track. He's really funny, and even cheered me up a bit when I was neck-deep in wedding stress. Our wedding flowers weren't even one of our top priorities, and they ended up being one of my favorite aspects. They turned out perfectly and most of them lasted almost 2 weeks! read more

Had a decent experience. Went in for flowers for a small wedding reception, just wanted to add a few last minute details to table centerpieces. Had questions about the prices and although there were workers around in the back unloading, I found it difficult to have the questions I had answered. There was a young man who was helping in the unloading area and all of the customers around me were going to him but he seemed preoccupied. Would love to have had someone right there to answer or have prices displayed. Will be returning as I don't know of another place that sells flowers in bulk but I am not looking forward to it. Will probably do lots of research. read more

I love this place so much. I've been a fan since I moved to the area a year ago. They have huge selection of various flowers and plants to pick from. I especially love that you can step into their cooler and basically create your own bouquets. Everyone here is super nice and helpful and I've done 4 different pickups during the pandemic for dried flowers, topical flowers (not found anywhere else), and plants. Never had an issue here and I'm happy to give them my business. read more

I'd never been to AFC before, but thought I would pop in to see if I could find some pretty flowers at a reasonable price for a friend's birthday. The shop was clean, tidy and I was greeted when I walked in with my 3 yo son. We had a peek around and then went into the walk-in fridge to look at the rest of the flowers. The selection was a nice size and they all looked healthy and I didn't notice any with brown edges or drooping blossoms. I found the flowers I wanted and the young man behind the counter wrapped them up nicely and was super sweet to my son, asking him if the flowers were for something special and making sure my son felt like 'a big boy.' Don't let the simplicity of my review dissuade you. I'll be going back to AFC for years to come. read more

not in love with the fact that other than one person who worked here, I was not only ignored but made to feel like I was SUCH an annoyance and that I should just leave already! I know this place is not supposed to offer a lot of service, but I thought maybe a little is not too much to ask for. This is my neighborhood florist, and I don't really feel like every going back in there. The prices were not any cheaper than if I went to a full service florist. Watch out is what I say. read more

they have the most amazing selection of fresh cut flowers ijn all of Austin the staff is so kind and recommended great options to fill my bouquet have flowers that you usually dont see all year round all year read more

Austin flower company is by far the best place to buy flowers in Austin. This is where other flower companies come to get their flowers. They have the nicest staff and a huge selection of flowers. Today, Jacquelyn and Tyler helped me find the perfect flowers for a high quality, unique and beautiful gift! read more

This place is Awesome! My husband went here to buy my flowers for my birthday this year and I absolutely LOVED them. This means a lot to me because I have been telling my husband the kind of flowers I like for the past 16 years and he has never gotten it right. This year I was surprised to see him walk in with such a beautiful bouquet of flowers. I knew he had not done this on his own, that is when he mentioned how great Dylan was and how he could not have brought home such a great bouquet of flowers if he had gone to all the other flower shops he had shopped at in the previous years. Thank you Dylan for helping my husband pick the perfect flowers for me. You are great and made my birthday very special(I finally felt like my husband heard me all these years and knows me). I told my husband that this place is the only flower shop he should go to from now on. read more

I used Austin Flower Co. for DIY wedding bouquets, boutonnières and center pieces. Though staff members aren't really in the business of recommending how to put things together, they were still helpful when I was looking to price things out. If you've got a) an eye for assembling flowers and b) an interest in saving some cash this is the way to go. We spent a total of $225 for all our flowers (which made 5 bouquets, 5 boutonnières and 15 center pieces - and because I goofed on calculations 2 dozen extra roses) - for comparison, a quote from another vendor for 5 BASIC bouquets and boutonnieres ONLY without centerpieces or anything else was over $350. read more

I love to get 2 DOZEN roses here for $10 when they have a sale that seems to come up about once a month. It is a luxury that is affordable and the service is great! read more

Some of the flowers here are a bit pricey, yes. But not ridiculous. They have a fantastic selection and the staff is VERY helpful. They also have some plants so it's a great place to stop to pick up a house warming/anniversary arrangement/ whatever. read more

Dylan is the man! I was looking for a specific flower and all I had to go by was a picture of it but had no idea what it was, google had nothing close. He asked me to send him the pic and he was able to identify it within a minute and even sent me a pic back of the exact same flower he had in stock. I did not even step my foot inside his store this was completely over the phone, he went above and beyond. This will be my place to go anytime I need flowers from now on. read more

This is the best place in town to get a quick bouquet of gorgeous, fresh, cost effective flowers. Beautiful, unique selection, always has some kind of good deal or flower on special. The BEST part is the service. All the people who have ever helped me here are wonderful, but Dylan is GREAT! He not only went above and beyond for for me, but with the customer in front of me as well. This will keep me coming back for sure. read more

I went in last night to purchase flowers for my daughters wedding. They were so helpful and offered great suggestions for our budget. The young man that helped us was friendly and knowledgeable. I wont go anywhere else!! read more

6:03 on a rainy day. Rushing to get my little sister Homecoming flowers. Doors open. Missed it by 3 minutes. Told we are closed at 6. I understand the closing times but maybe the clerk could just be nice and help me. That's the Texas way? Disappointment. read more

I thought I'd support a local business by purchasing a birthday bouquet here for a friend. Upon entering the shop, there were 5 employees standing around. Not one asked if I needed help. Hmm, ok...I walked into the sub-arctic area where they keep the flowers. I was surprised at the limited variety that was available, and what was there didn't look particularly fresh. The few bouquets that they had were ridiculously priced at $45 each. Hell no! I got back into my car & drove around the corner to Central Market, where I should have gone in the first place. read more

I LOVE this place! The staff are AWESOME! Dylan and Gaynor are so helpful and knowledgeable about the flowers. Thomas is so friendly the rest of the staff are just amazing. They always have what I need and then some! I would recommend this place to everyone. read more

Great selection of flowers, well priced and friendly service. You have to go and find someone to help you, but once they do, the experience is wonderful. I shop here for all of my flowers and have never been disappointed. The first bouquet I bought here lasted for over 2 weeks and made the whole room smell wonderful for just as long! read more

Excellent selection of unique plants at decent prices. I bought a lovely house plant for my cousin here and she loved it.

As an intern for an event company, I have spent a lot of time in this flower shop picking arrangements. Starting with minimal knowledge on flowers, I'm sure that each and every employee here has helped me at some point. I have not had a single bad experience here, from finding unique products to ringing up complicated orders. I highly recommend for all of your arrangement needs!! read more
