The Best Flower Subscriptions

There's a lot of room for customization with UrbanStems' subscription offerings. The three plans differ in price and types of flowers included:

• Classic: a rotating selection of traditional blooms for $55 per delivery
• Seasonal: a mix of in-season flowers for $75 per delivery
• Luxe: premium arrangements for $105 per delivery

All three can be delivered on a biweekly or monthly basis (the Classic and Seasonal plans also have a weekly option), and customers are given the choice to pay as they go or prepay for up to 12 deliveries, making it incredibly easy to send one of the subscriptions as a gift. No matter what tier you select, all of the blooms in UrbanStems' bouquets come from Rainforest Alliance Certified farms, meaning they're responsibly sourced using methods that protect the environment and the workers that pick them.

On top of the beautiful flowers, the subscriptions include a vase in the first delivery, which can be used for each subsequent bouquet. Though you won't ever know what arrangement is coming next, the surprise is part of the fun. Plus, unlike one-time orders from UrbanStems, subscriptions always include free shipping.

Not only is The Bouqs Co. one of the more affordable subscriptions on this list, but it's also one of the most flexible, allowing customers to choose their bouquet, delivery date, and recipient for each shipment. In addition to a lower price per arrangement, shipping is free on recurring orders, saving you about $25 on delivery fees. Bouquets come in three different sizes:

• Original: 10-16 stems for $44 per delivery
• Deluxe: 20-32 stems for $56 per delivery
• Grand: 30-45 stems for $69 per delivery

Bouqs is committed to minimizing waste in the industry, and one way the company does this is by partnering with farmers who use sustainable growing practices, such as recycling water. Because the flowers come directly from the farm, they typically arrive in bud form, meaning they'll bloom in your home and stay fresh for a longer period of time.

If you need a one-off arrangement for a special occasion, the brand also has same-day and next-day delivery options, though the bouquet selection may be limited depending on your location. Prices for single arrangements start at $49 and go up to $120. You can also shop for dried flowers and plants.

BloomsyBox's roses-only subscription delivers a different variety of the popular flower to your doorstep each month within seven days of the stems being picked. At about $50 per shipment, Bloomsy Roses is one of the brand's mid-tier subscriptions. All in all, BloomsyBox has 10 recurring plans that vary by flower or plant type, arrangement size, and delivery frequency:

• Bloomsy Original ($45/month): a mix of 22 to 24 in-season flowers per bouquet
• Bloomsy Deluxe ($50/month): a mix of 25 to 27 in-season flowers per bouquet
• Bloomsy Premium ($55/month): a mix of 27 to 32 in-season flowers per bouquet
• Bloomsy Weekly ($45/week): a more frequent version of Bloomsy Original
• Bloomsy Biweekly ($50/every two weeks): a more frequent version of Bloomsy Deluxe
• Pet-Safe Blooms ($50/month): excludes flowers and greenery that are toxic to pets as specified by the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
• The NYBG Subscription ($70/month): bouquets curated by floral experts from the New York Botanical Garden
• Bloomsy Eucalyptus ($40/month): bunches of hand-picked fresh eucalyptus
• Plant Subscription ($60/month): a mix of potted plants

While subscribers don't have a say in the exact flowers they'll receive, apart from choosing a subscription type, BloomsyBox notes that you never get the same bouquet more than once. Even the rose subscription has a few tricks up its sleeve when it comes to color.

All of the flowers are sourced from farms in Colombia and Ecuador that bear a Rainforest Alliance Certified seal, ensuring that no toxic chemicals were used in the fertilization process. To help keep the blooms fresh, BloomsyBox includes flower food and care instructions in every shipment, so even if you or your recipient is a floral novice, you can extend your bouquet's lifespan by a few days.

You'll notice that a subscription from Enjoy Flowers is a little more expensive than other options on this list, and that's because of the flower quality. All of the blooms are grown on sustainable farms in Colombia and guaranteed by the company to stay fresh for at least seven days.

The brand's singular subscription, the Garden Collection ($65/delivery), is filled with popular flowers like spray roses, carnations, and matsumoto. Each box includes free shipping, a packet of flower food, and care instructions to help you lengthen the bouquet's shelf life while you wait for the next one. It comes with 30 to 35 stems, so you can also separate the flowers into two or three smaller arrangements if you wish.

1-800-Flowers' subscription model operates a bit differently than others'. For the most part, you're signing up to get the same bouquet over and over again. But that's not necessarily a bad thing. It allows the company to have a bigger assortment of subscription arrangements than most competitors. However, if you do want to be surprised with each shipment, we recommend these three plans:

• Fresh Market Bouquet (starting at $50): a rotating mix of colorful florals
• One of a Kind Bouquet (starting at $50): crafted by local florists to be completely unique
• Two Dozen Red Roses (starting at $60): colors vary based on availability

Speaking of variety, 1-800-Flowers also has the most delivery options out of any service featured here. Currently, customers can have a bouquet delivered every week, two weeks, four weeks, six weeks, or eight weeks. Pay as you go or sign up for three months, six months, or 12 months' worth of shipments.

Each plan differs when it comes to customization. For instance, the One of a Kind Bouquet is available in six different sizes ($50-$100) and always includes a glass vase, while the Fresh Market Bouquet can be purchased without a vase. Subscribers of the Roses package have a choice between a clear or red vase as well as whether or not to add on chocolate.

These DIY flower arranging kits are perfect for novices and experienced gardeners, designers, and the like. Customers can choose which subscription's aesthetic best fits their home and how frequently they want a new box of stems to arrive. Here are the styles available:

• Modern Farmhouse (starting at $50): premium Ecuadorian blooms with a European-inspired twist
• Warm Industrial (starting at $50): small modern eco-grown flowers
• Fresh Garden (starting at $60): a mix of Ecuadorian roses and other flower varieties typically found in gardens
• Rainbow Rosy Outlook (starting at $75): an assortment of hand-dyed rainbow roses
• Rosy Outlook — 25 Stems (starting at $80): different color roses in each shipment
• Rosy Outlook — 50 Stems (starting at $150): different color roses in each shipment

The stems arrive loose so you can arrange them any way you want. In case you need some help, It’s By U provides a video guide along with printable instructions on different ways to display the flowers. It’s worth noting that the instructions are specific to vases available for purchase on the company's website. These decorative containers cost between $25 and $35 and need to be added on to your subscription order.

It's By U is unique in that you can select "one-time delivery" for any of the six subscriptions, which essentially lets you try out a specific plan before you commit to recurring deliveries. If you're new to flower arranging, It's By U also sells beginner tools like floral shears and a plant mister in its online shop.

While Flower of the Month Club's singular subscription does allow for some customization—including delivery frequency and number of shipments—the concept is relatively simple: Members get one professionally designed seasonal bouquet each month that incorporates that month's featured flower. Want to see what varieties are coming up? Check out this year's calendar.

Each arrangement costs just under $45, plus $15 for shipping and handling. The club previously highlighted unique botanicals such as red torch parakeet heliconias, black ti leaves, candy stripe orchids, and tricolor hala leaves. These flowers and plants are sourced from growing regions all over the globe, including Costa Rica, Thailand, and the Netherlands. The size and style of the bouquet is subject to the current season. 

One thing you can always expect from Flower of the Month Club is freshness. Your bouquet will arrive two days after the flowers have been harvested and they'll bloom in your home. Along with the arrangement, your box comes with a newsletter that explains the featured flower's history, including where it originated and how it was grown.
