Our wedding was this past weekend and Benken is where we got our florals. Every person we worked with was incredibly nice and knowledgeable. All our flowers turned out stunning and exactly as I imagined them. I provided a lot of source material during our consultation and they were spot. on. We received so many compliments. I would like to note too that we picked up our flowers the Friday before the wedding and they are still holding up today (the following Tuesday). Our apartment is full of them now and it makes me so happy. Thank you to everyone on the Benken wedding team! read more

Our family ordered the Jolene bouquet that they thought would be pink themed for a birthday gift & the bouquet delivered was predominantly white roses & white hydrangeas which was Not how the image online looked at all! The image online was gentle pink & peach roses & flowers. In our family white roses are for funerals & death occasions. So we inadvertently paid $80+tax/delivery for a morbid bouquet that will have to be disposed of! read more

How can you not love a place that sells plants?! Benken is a local florist and home and garden center. I bought a plant here for Mother's Day over a year ago and it's going strong! It may be a little bit pricey but it's locally made and grown. Management team and owner are sweet as can be. I set up for the first handmade market and they were so nice and helpful! Beloved by many local residents to silverton, this place is family owned. Parking is in private and easy. Highly recommend! read more

Pick out your selection very carefully and do not forget to ask about their return policy. They have none. And, did I say they were expensive. Natorps or Lowes have a very reasonable return policy. And, both are much cheaper. read more

Thank you for delivering beautiful flowers to my aunt while she was in the hospital. I'm in Boston and was worried about ordering long distance. I wasn't sure what I would get but the arrangement was beautiful, was delivered on time, and I heard it even smelled great! Thank you! read more

This is a plant lovers joint and I can hang out here for hours. You name it, they got it. The place is definitely organized and not to mention the plants are well taken care of. Super healthy. For those just beginning planting they have the sections labeled- plants that require light, low light, and indirect light. For me my fave section is the cacti and succulent area. Looking for Live Christmas trees? They have it! Pots, herbs, arrangements for occasions and tons of outdoor plants. It was difficult to choose a plant to take home because I wanted them all but I ended up getting two exotic plants that stand out and at a reasonable price. They also do wedding receptions and special events here as well. So much to offer! I am glad paid them a visit. I highly recommend this nursery. Staff super friendly and helpful. read more

Was told by other local florists this is the go to florist for potted flowering plants. I ordered a planted orchid. It was $54 with tax and delivery it was $75 which was a great price as other florists were over $95 without delivery. The lady that answered the phone was very kind and polite and helpful. Orchid should be delivered Monday. If any issues I'll update my post but I assume we Weill be good to go. :) read more

Super pleased with this greenhouse! Or should I say, greenhouses... after you park, your options are endless when it comes to exploring the many buildings. Each building houses different styles of plants. Tropical trees, perennials, annuals, succulents, house plants, even a retail area with different pots, planters, seeds, garden ornaments and fertilizers. I stopped in during their $1 pansy sale, no limit! The lady at checkout was thorough while explaining to me how and when to plant my flowers. Only knocking them a star because when I arrived, I was clueless where to go and I wish they had some sort of description of each building or signs of where to go. I did enjoy perusing around (stroller friendly). I used to come here as a child with my parents, Benken is a family friendly springtime staple! read more

Benken's did an outstanding job on the corsage that I ordered for my son to give his prom date. Prices were comparable with other florists. I will be using them again, for sure. read more

This place hands down provides the BEST service & floral selection in the area. I visited today to pick out some flowers for my fiancee. Although it was close to closing time, Maria was eager to greet me & attentively listen to my requests. Later, the manager of the greenhouse (her name has slipped my mind) prepared the most beautiful bouquet based on my request & within my price range. Please shop local & give Benken a try - you won't be disappointed! read more

The two bouquets in the photo are from Adrian Durban on the left and BENKENSon the right. Both cost the SAME, but you can see the stark difference in quality. My husband who was out of town and ordered both online. The one on the left look likes a bouquet for a secretary/patient, while the Benkens one made a divine "I miss you" bouquet, as he intended. There was simply no comparison. I will always choose Benkens in the future! read more

My friend and I just took a class to make a wreath. It was so much fun, the staff was so friendly and helpful, and our wreaths were lovely. Thank you! I can't wait to return to shop for more houseplants and flowers! read more

I like HJ Benken a lot, but when I stopped to pick up some chives, I thought they looked pretty scrawny for $6.99. I bought some anyway in case I didn't find any better ones, but I found much better selections at much better prices at Bloomin' and Pipkin's. I'm sure part of the price difference is the pot size -- Benken's is much bigger -- but I'm more concerned about whether or not these obviously just-sprouted chives will survive transplant and grow in my garden than about the size of the pot. I'm going to plant all three and report back. read more

This is a wonderful local florist and greenhouse. I stopped in during the $1 petunia sale on the second day of the sale and got a really nice selection. They had people directing traffic and helping to direct you where to go once you got into the place. I looked around a little bit after choosing my petunias and I really liked the other things they had to offer. All seemed reasonably priced, too. Will definitely be back at some point this growing season. read more

The peaches we purchased in 2021 were fabulous, but the peaches we received this year are a huge disappointment!! This year, they are roughly the size of a big walnuts. We have not tasted yet, because they still need to ripen. I hope we're not disappointed in the taste. read more

Super disappointed with this year's sale $1. petunias. I bought them the last 2 years with no problems. Being a former greenhouse owner, totally aware of how to care for plants and NO - I didn't plant outside. 75% of crop is dead and 15% looks mostly dead. Called and got a "we don't guarantee annuals" answer and then a thank you good bye. Dag! I guess I learned my lesson - you get what you pay for with customer service. read more

My husband and I reside in Utah, while my mother in-love resides in Ohio. Benken's has been wonderful in helping us with perfect home and garden selections. Their customer service is excellent and delivery is prompt. My mother in-love has been thrilled with every delivery. Some flowers have her inside flower arrangement enjoyment, others have been for her to nurture in her garden. Benken's is terrific, and I won't go with any other place! read more

We worked with Robin for our wedding and she had minimal inspiration to work with. I wanted a lot of greenery and white flowers in my bouquets as well as all over my tables around the centerpieces and other tables. Robin did SO amazing at making the flowers A) easy to understand and visualize B)affordable and C)BEAUTIFUL!! We can't thank benken's enough for making our wedding so beautiful ! read more
