The arrangement was exceptional. I get my mom flowers every year and my mom said these were the best yet! Gorgeous.
My friend was thrilled with the arrangement. Out was understandably late due to Labor Day. Thank you for notifying me of the change.

Send flowers online with James Cress Florist, family florists since 1903
Looking for the perfect way to send fresh flowers and gifts online? James Cress Florist designs bouquets, plants and sympathy tributes by hand and delivers them the same day through a network of local florists across the United States and Canada, with gourmet gift baskets shipped by carrier when flowers are not the whole story.
How same-day flower delivery works
Order by 2:00 PM Monday to Friday or 12:45 PM Saturday, in the recipient's time zone, and a florist near the recipient designs and hand-delivers your same-day flowers. Our network of more than 10,000 local florists covers the United States and Canada, so the same cutoff applies whether the flowers are going across town or across the country. Sunday delivery through the network is limited to select holidays. Gift baskets ship by carrier and are not part of the same-day service. Our delivery policy has the full details.
Flowers for every occasion
Every occasion has its own collection: birthday flowers, anniversary flowers, get well flowers, new baby flowers, thank you flowers, love and romance, Mother's Day and Valentine's Day. For sympathy flowers and funeral arrangements, our Sympathy Advisors can help you choose the right tribute and coordinate timing with the funeral home. Shop by flower too: roses, orchids, lilies, mixed bouquets and plants.
Gift baskets, fruit and gourmet gifts
When flowers are not the whole story, add a gift that ships: gourmet gift baskets, fruit baskets, chocolates and gourmet gifts from our sister store, packed fresh and shipped by carrier. Every basket page lists its contents and allergen information.
Weddings and events
Our designers have created wedding and event flowers for more than a century. Start with the wedding flowers page, book a bridal consultation, or order corsages and boutonnieres for prom and formal events.
Reviews you can check
The star ratings on our product cards come from Judge.me, which invites customers to review after delivery. The store-wide average on this page counts every published rating, not a selection, and updates as new reviews arrive; the quotes shown are recent published reviews with the reviewer's first name and last initial. Every order is covered by our 100% smile guarantee: if something is not right, tell us and we will make it right. Answers to common questions live in our FAQs.
