Tucked inside Jean-Talon Market, Binette et Filles isn’t just a flower shop—it’s a fixture. Run by Myriam Binette and her crew, this family-led operation merges the hustle of the marché with the softness of seasonal blooms. The vibe is warm, the staff is sharp, and the selection is consistently top-tier, whether you’re looking for a spontaneous bunch of tulips or a showpiece Monstera Thai Constellation. They do same-day delivery across the island and beyond, but their roots are hyper-local: arrangements often come in hand-thrown pots or locally made planters, and their dried lavender and oxalis plants have a bit of a cult following. If you want personal attention, they’ll give it—down to emailing you plant care tips and saving the best specimen in the next shipment. A rare mix of charm, craft, and full-service reliability in a space that smells like spring even in February.

Started by two designers who traded screens for stems, Flori Flora is a floral studio that treats bouquets like works of art—with structure, emotion, and intention behind every petal. Marie-Hélène Chiasson and Pascale Charbonneau bring a multidisciplinary edge to their work, shaped by backgrounds in visual design, art direction, and time spent studying the floral arts in Montreal and Australia. The result? Arrangements that feel composed rather than just pretty. Flori Flora isn’t your everyday walk-in florist—they operate more like a creative studio, crafting custom pieces for weddings, events, photoshoots, and private clients who care more about the message than the ribbon. While they offer ready-to-order bouquets, their true strength lies in building florals around mood, texture, and feeling. It’s less grab-and-go, more heart-meets-eye.

Westmount Florist has been around since 1962, and they’ve built their name the old-school way—through consistency, quality, and knowing their customers better than an algorithm ever could. With locations in both Westmount and Pointe-Claire, they’ve long been the city’s default for refined, occasion-worthy flowers: weddings, holidays, condolences, or just sending something nice across the world. The arrangements are elegant, rarely fussy, and always seasonal, with a range that runs from modest gestures to full-on showpieces. While they pride themselves on in-person service, their online ordering system is smooth and includes delivery confirmations—a godsend if you’re ordering from overseas or just across town. Prices range widely, and staff are known for working within your budget while still delivering something that looks more expensive than it is. A safe bet? Sure. But also a smart one.

On a stretch of Saint-Laurent better known for bars and smoke shops, this low-profile florist turns out some of the most refined arrangements in the city. Pourquoi pas Fleurs doesn’t traffic in fluff—this is where you go for clean lines, sharp colour palettes, and modern compositions that feel closer to sculpture than bouquet. Same-day delivery makes them a clutch move for forgotten birthdays or last-minute save-the-dates, and their range—from budget-friendly garden bunches to full-on orchid statements—means you can dial the drama up or down. Bonus points for being one of the few spots that ships internationally, giving you a way to send Montreal style well beyond the 514. You won’t see pre-made catalogue shots on their site, and that’s the point—each bouquet is built around what’s fresh, what’s in season, and what looks damn good that day.

Verdun’s go-to for reliable, gorgeous flowers without the attitude. Lillipot might not scream luxury from the outside, but inside, it’s all thoughtful design, vibrant arrangements, and service that actually listens. Whether you’re popping in for a bouquet near LaSalle metro or planning florals for a wedding, the team delivers—literally and creatively. They’re members of the Canadian Academy of Floral Art, but there’s nothing stiff or formal about the place. Just good taste, great prices, and florists who wrap with care and remember your name. Their menu ranges from fresh-cut bunches to preserved flowers and orchids, and if you’re indecisive, they’ll walk you through it like an old friend. Extra points for the rotating stock of cute cards and the fact that your bouquet will still look good a week later. Lillipot doesn’t miss.

You’d be forgiven for assuming this stretch of Sherbrooke is just another artery of dépanneurs and dollar stores. But stop in front of Marché Westmount and it’s clear: something’s blooming. Behind a low-key corner store sign is one of the most community-loved flower spots in the city, where flats of bright begonias spill onto the sidewalk and regulars are greeted by name. It’s less a formal florist than an overachieving marché with the soul of a botanical garden—one where the owner is known to toss in a free stem or a dog treat just because. Advice is doled out freely (and wisely), and the plants—house, garden, flowering or foliage—are consistently vibrant and well-tended. There’s no sleek branding or delivery platform here, just warmth, generosity, and the kind of everyday beauty that still surprises you.

Mayfair has been doing flowers the old-fashioned way for over 50 years—and that’s a compliment. Just off Queen Mary, this Côte-des-Neiges staple blends professional service with the kind of warmth you don’t get from algorithm-fed bouquet builders. Whether you’re planning a memorial, sending a poinsettia across town, or just need a last-minute centrepiece, the team is calm, kind, and quick to adapt. They don’t over-promise—they just get it done, beautifully. The arrangements are elegant without being showy, and come packed to survive both transit and clumsy hands. Their space smells like a storybook and feels like someone actually cares about what you’re picking up. With wedding quotes that are fair and feedback that’s honest, Mayfair is the kind of place that earns repeat customers the slow way—through trust, consistency, and the occasional pleasant surprise.

With over thirty years of experience behind it, Fleurs Marie Vermette has quietly built a reputation for crafting some of the Plateau’s most elegant floral arrangements. Located on Laurier Avenue East, this boutique leans on local blooms, high-end products, and a team of designers who understand that the best bouquets balance precision with personality. Whether it’s a wedding, a new arrival, or just a simple gesture, the florists here tailor each arrangement to the occasion, offering contemporary designs with fresh, daily imports and seasonal flowers like Quebec-grown tulips and dahlias. Beyond bouquets, the shop also curates home décor accents, making it a destination for those looking to mark a moment—or just brighten a Tuesday. Personalized service, attention to detail, and a sense of quiet refinement are what keep customers coming back.

It’s Verdun’s unofficial relaxation zone: For over two decades, Atelier Floral Les 4 Saisons has been quietly perfecting the art of making people feel at ease. You walk in and it smells incredible—literally, thanks to their rotating house scent (Goyave on the day in question), which is made in Canada and often ends up in your bag before you leave. But it’s not just fragrance that draws people in—it’s the care. Plants are healthy, priced fairly, and thoughtfully arranged, with air plants, succulents, and less common varietals in the mix. The staff, led by Nathalie, is hands-on without being pushy, happy to chat or leave you to your own calm little moment. They also deliver across Montreal, but the full effect—the quiet, the greenery, the scent—is best experienced in person. A neighbourhood staple that actually lives up to the hype.

Operating out of a suite inside the Palais des Congrès, Sky Fleurs feels more like a studio than a storefront—and that’s exactly how they like it. Run by florist Karman Au, the business has been delivering high-end, tailor-made arrangements since 2010, with an emphasis on emotion-driven design and precise execution. Everything here is by appointment or online, with a strong focus on delivery: orders arrive on time, looking like they were just pulled from a magazine shoot, complete with careful wrapping and handwritten notes. Their site is clean, intuitive, and geared toward last-minute surprises that still feel personal. Karman’s signature style leans refined and contemporary, with options for both natural and artificial arrangements. They’re also one of the few florists in town donating a portion of each order to sloth conservation. Seriously. A polished choice for anyone who wants their flowers to speak louder than words—and do a little good in the process.

For over 25 years, the Fauchois family has been building a quiet empire of elegance, one bouquet at a time. Originally launched by Jean-Jacques and Odette Fauchois and now helmed by their daughters, this family-run florist in Mile Ex blends a painter’s eye for colour with a personal approach that feels more like conversation than transaction. Walk into their Waverly Street boutique and you’ll find arrangements crafted with seasonal intention, shelves lined with curated vases, and a staff who genuinely want to know who the flowers are for before they make a single cut. From weddings to “just because,” their work is refined but never cold—structured with care, not stiffness. And if nothing on display feels quite right, they’ll happily build something bespoke based on your palette and occasion. It’s one of the rare places where buying flowers still feels a bit like an art form.

No sign, no branding—just a cascade of vines, painted birdcages, and the smell of fresh blooms spilling out onto Bernard Street. Dragon Flowers isn’t just a shop; it’s a landmark, kept alive for over 35 years by Tamey Lau, a single mother, immigrant, and floral artist whose presence is as beloved as the flowers she arranges. After a fire nearly ended it all in 2013, the Mile End rallied. Over $12,000 poured in within 24 hours, a testament to how deeply this small business is woven into the fabric of the neighbourhood. Step inside and you’ll likely find Tamey still behind the counter, building each bouquet by hand, her ranunculus favourites tucked in among roses, lilies, and more. Dragon Flowers is more than beautiful—it’s personal. Every arrangement is a conversation, every bloom touched by someone who believes in sending good energy out into the world. And somehow, it always finds its way back to her.

ABACA isn’t trying to reinvent the wheel—it’s just turning it better than most. This long-standing florist in Rosemont excels at range: from wild garden-style bouquets and stylized funeral pieces to holiday wreaths, dried lavender, and centrepieces made to impress. They’ve built a loyal following by being consistently sharp, with artisan-level arrangements and a sense of humour (they’ve sent roses to Stromae, Nicki, and Shania when they roll through the Bell Centre). Their online shop is no-frills but intuitive, and they offer a “quick order” option where you pick the vibe—seasonal, romantic, rustic—and let their team take care of the rest. Bonus: you can personalize your delivery with a selfie, which sounds gimmicky but somehow works. Whether you’re ordering for a wedding, a last-minute condolence, or a favourite pop star, ABACA keeps it fresh, fuss-free, and surprisingly fun.

This isn’t your typical flower shop—and that’s the point. Oursin Fleurs is part of a new wave of florists trying to rebuild the industry from the soil up. Located on Ontario Street East, they make elegant, contemporary arrangements using locally grown, in-season flowers, all wrapped in recyclable materials. There’s a zero-waste ethos behind everything they do, but it’s not a gimmick—it’s just how they work. The bouquets change weekly, and their subscription service means your home can stay in sync with the seasons without ever setting foot in a supermarket floral aisle. Bonus: they also carry a curated lineup of home goods and host occasional workshops for anyone looking to get their hands a little dirty. Service can vary, depending on how busy it is, but the results—fresh or dried—tend to speak for themselves. A thoughtful, low-impact option for people who want their flowers to feel as good as they look.

Established in 1962, Venus Fleurs has the kind of legacy that gives you confidence when the pressure’s on—whether it’s an anniversary you almost forgot or a multi-tiered corporate event. While best known for their large-scale floral installations and event work, they’re also go-to pros for custom home décor, unique rose varieties, and everyday arrangements that feel anything but generic. The vibe here is more classic than trend-chasing, but they’ve got range—floral tributes, centrepieces, houseplants, and the occasional exotic bloom, all handled with the same level of care. Their daily deliveries keep things fresh, and the service is built around flexibility: different price points, quick turnarounds, and the ability to scale up when needed. If you’re looking for something that says “professional” without feeling impersonal, Venus Fleurs delivers—with six decades of experience behind every stem.

Terrafolia isn’t just a flower shop—it’s an institution. Operating out of a 4,000-square-foot space in Dollard-des-Ormeaux since 1976, this family-run florist has built a reputation on trust, reliability, and a firm rejection of middlemen. Orders are arranged in-house, hand-delivered by their own drivers, and backed by a 100% satisfaction guarantee. Their catalogue covers it all: sympathy arrangements, romantic gestures, big corporate gestures, or just a classic dozen roses with zero surprises (except maybe how long they last). What sets Terrafolia apart, beyond the scale and precision, is their insistence on being real—from sourcing ethically grown flowers to keeping customer service personal. No boxed bouquets, no FedEx vans—just experienced designers and a delivery team that knows the city. They’ve been doing this longer than most Montrealers have been alive, and they’ve earned their reputation the hard way.

A neighbourhood institution with the kind of steady, no-nonsense service you wish every flower shop offered. Family-run and operating out of a modest storefront on the avenue it’s named for, Fleuriste Côte-des-Neiges has quietly built a loyal following thanks to its reliable delivery, honest pricing, and consistently well-crafted bouquets. Walk-ins are greeted with warmth, not pressure, and even last-minute requests are met with care and a calm sense of control. Daily specials hover around the $55 mark and are anything but generic, while higher-end arrangements lean lush and refined without tipping into extravagance. There’s a small but healthy selection of orchids and potted plants for those looking beyond cut flowers, and online ordering is smooth—just keep an eye on the delivery fees. In a city full of florists chasing trends, this one sticks to doing the basics beautifully, and that’s what keeps people coming back.

If the nearby Marché Westmount is your go-to for spontaneous stems, Flore L’Atelier is where you go when the flowers need to do heavy lifting. Weddings, corporate soirées, diplomatic dinners—they’ve done them all, and it shows. Inside this Westmount shop, part showroom, part atelier, the arrangements lean sculptural, precise, and often theatrical. No filler here. Each piece is custom-built to impress, backed by a team of florists who work in full view on the boutique’s open floor. The shop doubles as a gallery of curated objects—handmade vases, patinaed tables, oversized urns—reflecting a clear “no repeats” policy. Their online platform makes delivery easy, but it’s worth seeing the space in person. You don’t come here for basic. You come when the flowers need to match the moment—and you’re not afraid to go all in.

In NDG, where hardware stores and brunch lines dominate the commercial strips, Art et Fleurs stands as a quiet authority on how to make things beautiful. Run by Sonia and her husband, this family florist doubles as a plant shop and low-key nursery, stocked with everything from moss poles and horticultural soap to freshly cut lilies and funeral sprays that somehow last a week past the service. It’s the kind of place where the staff actually listens—helping you find the right pot size, suggesting a bouquet your mom will love, or assembling wedding florals that have guests asking for the name behind them. Not every tropical plant is showroom-ready, but most are healthy, affordable, and treated with care. The vibe is unpretentious, the flowers are fresh, and the arrangements carry just the right amount of personality. For anything between everyday mood boosts and milestone moments, this is NDG’s go-to.

There’s a difference between buying flowers and being shown how to make them speak. At Fleuriste Monarque, it’s the latter—where each bouquet carries intention, precision, and a hint of drama. Tucked into a bright studio space on rue Centre, this boutique balances charm with rigour, offering everything from last-minute deliveries to curated workshops like their “Peonies and Bubbles” Mother’s Day session. They don’t just push petals; they guide you through scent, shape, and seasonal palette, often alongside collaborators like Café Bloom. Their work is clean, contemporary, and unafraid of colour, with arrangements that feel more composed than cut. Same-day orders are possible, but it’s clear they’re not in this for speed—they’re here to get it right. Add a swan-shaped dish or handmade candle to your order if you want to turn a gesture into a whole experience.
