I think you can order specific flowers from both Costco and Sam’s Club and have them shipped to your home.

Trader Joe’s for DIY or Costco- I found out when delivery was, then spoke to florist. She was happy to design and assemble centerpieces etc for me at wholesale prices. The flowers there can also be bought online and shipped from farm.

Would you mind sharing the address for this? I'm not familiar and google picks up many far out options (well outside DC).

Jeez, PP. A nice feature of dcum is the ability to quickly communicate and survey the group hive. I'm willing to bet that you have asked a number of silly or obvious questions in the past. But I appreciate your links because I was following this thread for feedback.

Costco flowers always look expensive to me, and not that great. If going retail I'd do trader Joe's.

Personally, though, I'd ask the farmers market vendor about a bulk purchase. They always look so fresh and last way longer than grocery store flowers that are flown in from Kenya or other far places.

Also this time of year, if you need flowers to decorate a space you may have lunch with things in pots that can be used or planted outdoors afterwards.

TJ is great. Costco is good if you catch the flowers when they are just delivered and fresh. Wegmans in Germantown has a great florist shop and they will help you with arrangements too.

Is Costco the all around best for bulk flowers? Then have lots already arranged. I've heard great things about TJ too?
