Cedar Grove Gardens

Cedar Grove provided all of the flowers for my daughter’s wedding. Tajah assisted us through the entire process. She is patient and talented. She was able to connect with my daughter’s wishes and helped us select beautiful arrangements.
The bouquets and centerpiece were beautiful and within our budget. We would highly recommend Cedar Grove for your wedding or any other function.

Disappointed every time. Expensive and the customer service outside is horrendous. Just spent ten minutes being ignored while their «outside» guy first spent time placing a display on a trash can and then was told to wait so he could instruct a delivery man where to place boxes. And the «outside» guy had a helper who also helped instruct the delivery driver, not help but instruct. So a customer is waiting for help while two workers stand around telling a delivery guy where the boxes should go?
They need to remember that sometimes folks coming into their store are dealing with grief. All he had to do was look up and tell me he would be with me in a few more moments but instead ignored me.
You won’t be getting my grief money today or my business from now on.
And I almost never give one star. Today you deserved it.

This is the largest floral shop I’ve ever been to in Boston. They have practically every flower you need, including a huge outdoor potted plants section. Ordering flowers here on the spot is also a breeze. Just let them know your price range and the professionals there will handle everything. The outcome is always beautiful. Although there’s no private lot, there’s always ample street parking.

My family has been using Cedar Grove Gardens for our floral arrangements, bouquets, gifts, for the last 15+ years. Lisa and Nina were always our go-​to gals. Beautiful flowers, really quaint gift shop.

Best florist ever. Great gift shop, too. They have beautiful, fresh flowers and plants. At Christmas you can buy a custom made wreath and your tree. They sell interesting and unique gifts and cards. The people are ALWAYS helpful and they contribute to the community. There is nothing bad I could say about Cedar Grove Garden.

I had my wedding a couple of months ago and I got the flowers from this place. It was the worse experience ever!!! My husband found this place on Unilocal and saw that it had good reviews and was near our house (very convenient for us due to the fact that we did not have much time before the wedding to look for more places). We went there 3 weeks before our wedding to check it out. At the first time, they were really nice. They said that they would work with our budget and the short time since it was a small wedding and all I needed was a simple bouquet, three vases to decorate the table and the groom’s boutonnière. The person the was responsible for weddings was not there on that day, so they got my phone number and said that they were going to call me. A week after, nobody had called me yet. So, I called them and they told me to go there on Thursdays because thats the day that I would be able to talk with the person responsible for weddings. I went there on Thursday, and the person was not there. Then, they said they were going to call me again to schedule an appointment. I waited for one more week and nobody called me. By then, my wedding day was really close. I called them and said that I thought that was very disrespectful what they were doing to me and that I was going to look for another place. They apologized a lot and convinced me to schedule an appointment day. So, I went there again for my appointment and guess what? The person that was supposed to attend me was upstairs busy with something else and did not came to attend me. So, I ended up being attended by the receptionist, a «really grumpy lady». She did not even show me the type of flowers that they have. She did not ask me about my budget. Basically, I said that I was thinking of cream roses and she brought some of them, asked me what I wanted and gave me the total price. Which was 4 small bouquet of cream roses for $ 75 each. The grooms boutonnière $ 45. Plus the insurance that I had to pay in case something happens when they delivered that was mandatory. Total was $ 400.00. By the time, I did not have many choices because it was a week before my wedding already. So I purchased them and when they delivered the flowers an hour before the wedding, everything was fine with my bouquet and the vases for the table, but my husband’s boutonnière was already pilling off, it looked old and it kept falling out of his suit. We had no time to switch it :(((((
This place looks great, but for some reason they did no want to work with me. I still feel bad and disappointed about it because it was supposed to be a great experience for me since it was my wedding. Very Frustrating! I hope nobody has to go through the same!!! Heloisa

Thank you so much to Cedar Grove Gardens. Though out my wedding planning process I worked with a lot of vendors. But the only one I was completely confident in was Taj at Cedar Grove Gardens. She took my vision and blew it out of the water — within our budget. Everything came out so beautiful. THANK YOU!

Love this place! Amazing greenery all year and a gift shop with a million things to look at.

Last Sunday morning, I tried ordering same day flowers online from «Same Day Flowers/​Wesley Berry» for a friend’s grandmother’s wake. The company never delivered the flowers, nor did they return my calls or emails. I panicked. Buying the flowers was a last minute decision because the family said to make a donation in lieu of flowers. I decided that I wanted to send flowers as well.
It came down to literally 40 minutes before the wake (and Cedar Groves closing time). I called Cedar Grove Gardens half on reviews, and half due to their proximity to the wake. They really came through for me. I got to the wake a few minutes early, and my floral arrangement was already there. It was what I asked for: simple and elegant. The owner himself drove it over to ensure it was received by the time of the wake.
I cannot comment on their in-​person selection, but I will say that it is stellar customer service for a company to perform like this. I called them 40 minutes from their close and the wake. They could’ve easily said, «Sorry, no,» and I wouldn’t have blamed them. Most places would have, but they didn’t.
That is a company that actually cares… I look forward to visitng the shop in person some day!

Although Cedar Grove Gardens has BEAUTIFUL plants and flowers, DO NOT order flowers from them for a loved one’s funeral. You will NOT get the flowers you requested or the customer service you deserve! We could not find the flowers we sent because they were not the correct flowers or labeled properly. Such a dissappointment!

Wonderful place! They have a great selection of plants and are extremely helpful and insightful. They also have a variety of unique gift items as well.

$ 6 for one peony stem. You tell me if it’s worth it. I drive by this place daily and on a recent Saturday felt the need for fresh flowers. They have so many varieties, but I had to go for the one my heart beats for: the peony. And for that I paid the price. To the tune of $ 13 bucks for one peony and two daisies. I love peonies, but let’s be real here. The word is over, and ends with priced. Perhaps this is better suited for big time affairs such as weddings, not the occasional I want to brighten up my place with some fresh flowers event.

Awesome and Very helpful. Called another florist first who was incredibly rude. This florist was great. Thumbs up!

What a hidden gem in Dorchester! When I entered, I immediately fell in love with this florist/​landscape/​gift shop wonderland. It had lots if tasteful gifts and many things to please many tastes. The flowers appeared fresh (cut) and well cared for (annual and perennials). I was a little turned off by the customer service, as I was ignored for a solid five minutes, otherwise they would have received five stars. I will definitely return when I have time to spare! What a great place!

Saw it on Unilocal,checked it out… just came back and «yay, I’m a fan». Potted flora, cut flowers and bouquet service, artsy gift shop. Ultra-​compact space on a residential street corner; go slow after turning on Adams because it comes up fast. Extensive selection of very artistic homegoods inside, (xcellent beeswax candles) garden sculpture/​pottery, the place to do Christmas shopping and find special gifts for friends and events. It smells NICE inside. Not a discount store! I bought locally made oatcakes, for example, at 5.95 for a small pack. But I found very good sized perennials that I’ve not seen anywhere else for $ 10 a pot… same price as any other store — and these were wintered over so they were strong and ready to bloom. They had poppies ready to bloom — and poppies don’t bloom their first year… such a drag, right?
I recommend this very highly.

One of the best place to buy your floral products. Great floral displays and great pricing. A fun and friendly group attending to your every need. One must see the inside of this place. it is as though you left the city and entered country.
There is more than just flowers going on at the Garden.

Favorite local place to buy plants and flowers. Super helpful, friendly and accessible staff who will tell you if it’s a good idea (or not) to turn your backyard dirt bowl into a nice garden plot. The prices are reasonable, plus they’re grown there. This is my new spot for all things related to urban gardening.

Well, there you are. Sometimes, there’s still a great local place to buy flowering plants. I happened on this place, and snuck a look in, as I was there, and all.
Lovely. Lovely plants, lovely care, lovely help.
We need more of this, people. For real.

Wonderful!!!
I had Cedar Grove Gardens do the flowers for my wedding and they were a joy to deal with ! Very professional and friendly. Richard spends a good bit of time discussing what you would like and has wonderful suggestions about what will look and photograph best!
They do the most beautiful, natural arrangements ! They are professional and dependable — I knew I didn’t have anything to worry about with them!
I’m thrilled with how everything came out and would highly recommend them !

This is one of my favorite neighborhood places to shop for interesting and clever gifts, and for high-​quality plants and garden accessories. Visit often, even if just to check out their ever-​changing extravagant displays.
now that the Ashmont to Mattapan trolley is up & running again its really easy to get to, so close to the Cedar Grove stop.
