Marketplace Flowers

best florist in Vancouver. The best florist in Vancouver, period! I haven't seen such an eclectic variety of fresh flowers anywhere else. Tropical "birds of paradise" and other beautiful things I couldn't identify, orchids of all hues, Canadian Gerber daisies, lush clusters of hydrangea, the most vividly purple kale, and so many unusual types of greenery...

The sweet lady behind the counter is the owner, who was so helpful in the face of my overwhelming uncertainty and gave me lots of tips for keeping my flowers fresh longer.

I went next door for coffee while waiting for her to make the arrangement and came back to see a vase bursting with lilies, daisies, clover, and feared I'd been duped, that there was no way it would fit in the $50 budget I specified...it came to $47 and looked SO much better than I could have imagined! Based on my experience with a nearby competitor in downtown Vancouver, I couldn't believe it.

Since that initial visit, I've gone back several times and have been absolutely satisfied. I can't believe the money I've wasted at other florists when Marketplace has been here this whole time! This place is an absolute gem.  View Less … View More

Fantastic Flowers. I have purchased arrangements for myself and others many times from Marketplace Flowers and every time Meiko has delivered beautiful arrangements that stay fresh and beautiful for weeks. Her tropical designs are especially creative and gorgeous and she has the best selection of orchids and always is friendly and outgoing. I'm not sure what Jeffrey W. keeps talking about in his reviews but he has been smearing Marketplace Flowers all over the internet and everyone else loves this store. Absolutely recommend Marketplace Flowers to anyone  View Less … View More

Amazing Gerber Daisies. I bought a dozen Canadian Gerber Daisies, they were amazing and stayed fresh for a whole week in 1 inch of water. Very impressive little shop amidst a wonderfully eclectic setting. Mieko is more than happy to work with me on what I personally like in flower arrangements - that's hard to find these days.  View Less … View More

The Only Stop for Flowers. I move around a lot and whenever I get to a new city, I find a coffee shop and a florist. When I got to Vancouver, the florists were acceptable but nothing special ~ until I wandered into Marketplace Flowers (while searching for a coffee shop, actually). Their flowers are fresh, the selection is amazing, and the prices are right in line with industry standard. Even more important, for me though, was the fact that when I told the owner I wanted something unusual for my office, she actually created something unusual rather than something I could have gotten online. Now, I don't bother going anywhere else.  View Less … View More
