Caitlyn was very helpful in assisting me with all my flower questions and needs. Definitely will come back.

My boyfriend got me a customized bouquet of Roses/Sunflowers. Well for $55, I got 3 tiny tiny, unbloomed, shrivel up sunflowers and then one big sunflower & 3 roses. for $55, we could have gotten bouquets at aldi's or hyvee that was better than this. When he picked it up, they said this was the only selection they "had". When we called to complain, the worker was VERY rude, said she made the bouquet and the sunflowers will bloom. Welp ive only had the bouquet for 4 days and its been getting sunlight and the sunflowers are still shriveled up and look like they are about to dry out. If this was all they had, they should have called and offered something else considering sunflowers aren't in season right now instead of taking the money. On another note: no order # was given. WILL NEVER BUY FROM HERE. Will be calling the corporate administration office.

Very friendly. I wanted something specific and they made the vision come to life. The gift was very well received too!

Yesterday I was the recipient of a bouquet from Flowerama from Iowa City, IA which my significant other purchased in the store. Adorable bouquet with daisies and yellow roses. Today, only ONE day later, the roses are browned and dry at the tips of the petals. I checked the foam base and it was still moist (no water necessary). Very disappointing product. P.S. And isn't it interesting that the other reviews (Joseph O. and Sarah R.) are nearly IDENTICAL? Says something about a business when those related to it post their own reviews....

Great service and great flowers, pumpkins, christmas trees, etc! All year around holiday gifts! I go here often. Tamy (the owner) and friendly staff always does a great job. I recently picked up orchid potting mix and my orchid is about to bloom yet again!

Great shop, quality flowers, great service. I'd come here for a special occasion. Prices are a little high though - I prefer aldi's for simple stuff.

Glenda Schmitz

Called in an order to be sent to UIHC, I didn't know the patient's room#, told them I would find out and call back. They had the beautiful bouquet already delivered before I could get back to them. Very friendly staff!

Ordered a bouquet by phone today for delivery to a friend in IA City, and had a great experience with the Flowerama folks. They were friendly to deal with on the phone and were considerate of the price range I mentioned. The delivery was right on time when it needed to be and, judging from the photo my friend sent afterwards, they'd created a lovely arrangement. I'd definitely recommend them.

Today is my 21st birthday and the first time I've ever received flowers. My fiance's wonderful mother bought some to have delivered to me. They called me at 12:30 telling me they would arrive in a couple hours. I didn't have anywhere to be, so that was fine. At 4:30, I decided to call and check in. I was told the delivery guy just picked them up and was on his way. Almost an hour later, I got a call from the store that ended after one ring. I took that as my call to head downstairs since I was told he would call when he arrived. I get down and am greeted in a very rude manner. He asked me if I had been on my phone the whole time or just wasn't paying attention at all.. I was confused. He said he had been downstairs calling me for 20 minutes and asked someone else who lives in my apartment building to try to contact me. He was SO unbelievably rude to me. I felt horrible because I thought maybe I just didn't have signal and missed his calls. I got upstairs and realized they wrote down the wrong contact number on the card. The number he had been trying to call was 1 digit off from mine. I called and spoke with Tamy the owner. I apologized for the confusion and told her that he had been trying to call the wrong number. I also let her know that he was very rude. She apologized and said that he had the number that they were given. Wrong. They had the right number seeing as they had called me earlier in the day and I answered right away. Someone wrote down the wrong number and that caused a lot of confusion. Mistakes happen, I understand this. Their driver apparently does not, nor does he have any patience at all. The flowers are gorgeous, but the driver ruined this whole experience for me.

Flowerama of Iowa City created amazing custom flowers for our booth at the 2015 Iowa Wedding Expo this year. It was the "icing on the cake" and really pulled the wedding themed booth together. We can't say enough good things about the owner Tamy and her helpful crew.

Tamy and the girls at the shop are fantastic will continue to get my flowers from them for years to come!

Do not give them your money. Chances are the order won’t get there on time anyways, if it even goes through. And their customer service is awful.

Jen Zook

The ladies at Flowerama were friendly and helpful when choosing flowers for my friend’s wedding. They also made a beautiful white flower arrangement for the unity candle which turned out just like the bride wanted.

Jason Stewart

Did not have flowers delivered on time. Has no order tracker and no one answered my calls

Bobby Joe Cole

Paula Kasper

Always have things on hand for a quick pick up.

. This will be the 1st time that I have ever posted a negative comment on a business. Very poor quality flowers. Insanely rude interaction over the phone. I have never been hung up on in my life. Extremely negative experience. I absolutely do not recommend doing business with a company that talks to their customers like this.

Jessie Su

I usually don't like to write negative reviews about business online but this one is warranted. My husband decided to send me flowers for my birthday. I get this phone call from the delivery guy who is yelling at me (on my birthday) for not picking up his phone call when I was in class and could not answer. And because of that I needed to go pick them up myself? I am not complaining about the quality of product I received but the terrible service I was given without having done anything wrong. A nice surprised ruined. I would not recommend.

Michael Williams

Today was my second experience with this company. They went above and beyond to help me find the right potted succulents over the phone from out of state. Both times the delivered product was beautiful and in great shape. I couldn’t be more pleased with this shop and the employees who helped me!

Edgar Con

Not recommend

Mirna Infante

Very helpful staff and friendly.

Karen Evans

I have been dealing with Flowerama since the store opened.years ago and have always been pleased with the service and product!!! Weddings, funerals, gifts, plants and flowers for self, Holidays and regular day as well .... always pleased. I have plants from there that I have had for years!!! My tiny, tiny Christmas Cactus Is now huge and puts forth amazing blooms year after year!!!! Very pleased with all the service!!!! Tamy is always helpful and knowledgeable!!!!

Karen Fink

It makes me sad to write this review, as I have been going to Flowerama to get our senior flowers for about 10 years now, and because they were always so nice and helpful, I would go to them for all of my flower needs. I have always purchased the larger bouquets and then had them split them into smaller bouquets. I have always paid the extra for water tubes or filler to make the bouquets nice. I was told today that they can no longer do any other service, except wrap bouquets as they come out of the case. I was very rudely told that I could pay the per bouquet price for what I wanted, and I should consider myself lucky because they should be charging valentine prices already. I totally understand the need to make money at their business, but I do not understand the rudeness and sacrificing business, essentially over 8 pieces of wrapping paper. The experience was bad enough that I felt compelled to write this, I will never purchase anything there ever again and I will tell everyone I know to not go there either.

Caitlyn was super helpful with creating a gorgeous bouquet for me!!! Would highly recommend!

Mary Werger David Smith

I have ordered many bouquets and plants to send to friends and family. They have always been happy with what they have received. I usually have a coupon for a free vase that helps with the cost.

Valarie Taylor Crawford

Somethings are a bit pricey. But nice things there.
