Astoria Flower Mart Inc

I received white roses from this place as a gift from a special someone and the roses were drying out and had edges which were turning brown… very unsatisfied!

Thank you to Niko and the team at Astoria Flower Mart for going above and beyond all my expectations for my wedding day flowers.
The arrangements were all absolutely beautiful — guests are still complimenting me on the gorgeous pieces. Most importantly, they really understood my vision for the look and feel of the flowers, including the magnificent arch they created for my ceremony. Following the first centerpiece sample that was made (which was also stunning), I gave quite a bit of direction on changes I wanted to see to make the look more romantic and they did a wonderful job executing on that. I love that they listened to all my requests and feedback and really delivered.
Not only were the arrangements absolutely beautiful, but the service provided was stellar. Niko graciously managed all my requests, including many last minute changes and asks. I could not be more pleased with their work and would recommend them for other weddings without any reservations.

Bought stemmed flowers from here 2 – 3 times. Every time, the flowers didn’t last more than 2 days under normal care. Disappointing!

I ordered the Zen Artistry arrangement, which is listed as one of their best sellers. What I received barely fits the description of the kind of flowers that would be included, and it doesn’t look remotely like the photo on the website. There’s no zen here, just a funeral.
I will say that they delivered the same day within a few hours and the flowers seem fresh. I’d still be willing to go by the shop and pick something out in person.

Came to see Nico and he made a gorgeous arrangement for me with the colors and flowers I liked. Best florist in town!

Niko and the rest of the Astoria Flower Mart staff are kind, knowledgeable and clearly love what they do. I was on my way to visit my mom and, on a whim, decided to go to Astoria Flower Mart instead of my regular florist in Chelsea.
I’m a flower and plant nerd and as soon as I asked to start with closed peony buds and French tulips for the bouquet for my mom, Niko and co. were on it and made me a stunning bouquet. Niko suggested hydrangeas and lilac to go with the tulips and peonies — he made me a loyal customer when he went back to find mountain laurel to lace through the arrangement instead of the baby’s breath right at hand (it really made the deep pink and lavender colors pop).
Their prepared arrangements are also gorgeous and I chose one with roses and peonies for my godmother as well (I love peonies and their stock was top notch). I noticed other staff members helping out teenage boys choose flowers for their moms and that was really nice to see; it was as busy as a florist right by the N Q stop in Astoria could be, but everyone was well taken care of.
I highly recommend this business, and it’s worth the subway ride even if it’s a bit out of the way for you — they’ll prep a protective bag for large bouquets and wrap vase arrangements perfectly. Love how much they care about what they do!

Helen and Mike made my absolute dreams come true for my November wedding. They were caring, helpful and most importantly they listened to what I wanted. When they made suggestions they were not only FABULOUS suggestions, but they were polite about it, not over powering like other florists we found. They worked within our budget and their delivery was punctual and perfect. Every bride is different, but the flowers at my wedding are my favorite memory because they were so so beautiful. Especially my pagent queen bridal bouquet that Helen made me. It was Spectacular. **Doing Miss America wave w my perfect bouquet** I have since recommended them for several weddings I have attended, all of which had gorgeous flowers and will use them in June for my baby’s Baptism!

I’ll never go again and have been telling all my friends in Astoria to avoid. I went here to purchase a jade plant for my office and the entire experience left me angry. The owner didn’t have prices listed on anything and then raised the price by five bucks from what he initially quoted me when I went to the register. The staff was friendly, but the owner ruined the experience for me. I’m all about supporting local businesses — just not this one.

This is a nice florist despite its non-​glamorous location under the N train. I’d been looking for a small, simple houseplant for the last couple days, and I was disappointed with what I’d seen at the other area florists as well as what Key Food had to offer. I’d never been into this place before, only walking by it a bunch of times, but I checked it out today. They had the perfect little plant for me on the outside display, and it was in good condition. I got a small bag of soil, too. The people working there were nice and helpful.
