Question Good floral shops??

Hey I'm trying to find a good floral shop in Fremont, Newark or Union city... gonna be picking up some flowers for my gf cause she like surprises like that as do most all girls. There used to be a good place near my house but they went out of business a while back, so lemme know if theres any shops around I should check out first. Thanx.

I went to the asian type one off mission blvd. Can't remember what it's called but it's in the shopping center with albertson's and mission valley coffee roasting. Down towards Mission high school kinda.

Really cool people. I bought a really nice bamboo there. Though my girl friend has since chopped it up and killed most of it...... but they have some really nice stuff in there....

There are some really cool ones around. Check the phone book or the internet I found a bunch for Vday.

on a side note....if you want to surprise her you might consider something besides a flower or two..... like bamboo. A really nice bamboo can be reasonable...$40-65 and they last a lot longer.

I spent $150 on a flower set up for my girl friend a while back....dead in like a week...lame. She was way into the bamboo. brings good fortune and is a little different and lasts a lot longer.

if you're really desperate...get on bart. Take it to SF. Get off on the montgomery station exit. Walk up to the flower lady there...nice little shop. Awesome awesome flowers. And reasonably priced...you can get way carried away and spent $150 like I did or you can spend $40 and get a rad set up. They have lots of cool greenery. Sun flower...dyed sun flower...different flower than you'd find in a normal flower shop.....much much cooler stuff. Just plain old roses is cool sometimes but stuff like this are fun to throw in....more thought.

i've gotten flowers from the girl there quite a few times. For my mom. (rich and insanely picky) for friends, girl friend....etc..... Every single time without failure they are stoked out of their minds and ask where I got them.

Until now it's been top secret. haaa.

just remember...lillies are your friend.

Angel Flowers
a few stores down from the Newark Tapioca Express

My bro has been a loyal customer there for YEARS now. Ever since he had a crush on his girl, and now, through many bouquets of roses and other arrangements, they're married and he still has flowers delivered to her work through them. I ordered some roses for a friend from there also. Great people, great delivery service (quite punctual), and their flowers are super fresh and beautiful.

Hey thanks for the info... Angel flowers sounds pretty good since its near me, but that place in SF sounds pretty good too. Tough decisions...

Not sure if they have any locations out in Fremont or over the SM Bridge, but they have a couple in the SM area........Ah Sam.....pretty pricey, but nice arrangements and flowers are always fresh!

btw, you can come clean......What did you do WRONG??"

Seriously, I know the drill!

^ Lol.. actually I didn't do anything wrong, I've been doing everything right...and surprising her w/ flowers is just me continuing to do the right thing. Anyways she's really more into stuff if she doesn't expect it, loves the element of "surprise"... so I was gonna go get her some flowers and catch her off guard.
