Pros and cons
FLOWERBX
Pros
- Same-day delivery is available, and next-day delivery is offered as well, so a gift to GB and US can land on the day it is needed.
- The range covers bouquets, plants and subscriptions, so a plant or a subscription can sit alongside a bouquet in the same order.
- Returns run for 14 days, which leaves room to sort a problem order without ordering everything again.
Cons
- The freshness guarantee is 0 days, so an arrangement that fades early is not covered by a promise.
- Support runs on email and help centre only, while phone support is offered by 55.6% of flower delivery brands on the site, so a quick verbal check is not an option.
- The starting price ranks 23 of 27 brands, which places entry cost in the dearer part of the field.
Interflora
Pros

- Freshness guarantee of 7 days, ranked 3 of 20
- Same day delivery is available, and next day delivery is offered too
Cons
- Delivery costs £7.65, which weighs more on a small order starting at £25
- Price from ranks 12 of 27, so it sits above many cheaper flower sites

Who it suits
- People in GB and US who need a gift to land on the day they order it.

- You value a freshness promise, with 7 days of cover
Who should look elsewhere
- Fleurop, if you want dried flowers in the range alongside bouquets, letterbox flowers and plants
- Serenata Flowers or Blumenshop, if the £7.65 delivery fee pushes your order past your budget

Questions about each
FLOWERBX
What does a FLOWERBX bouquet cost, and is delivery extra?+
Flowers start at £45. Delivery is charged separately at £6.50, so the headline starting price is not the full cost of a single order. Both are the standing prices rather than introductory rates, which means the same figures apply each time you order and a regular gift habit does not bring a lower entry point.
Can flowers arrive the same day?+
Yes, same-day delivery is available, and next-day delivery is offered as well. The order cutoff of 1pm sets the boundary for the day's slots, so a morning order is the safer bet for a gift needed later the same day. Delivery reaches GB and US, so the option applies to addresses in both markets.
Interflora
What does Interflora charge at entry, and what is the delivery fee on top?+
Flowers start at £25, and a delivery fee of £7.65 is added on top. That fee is the part worth watching, because on a small gift it takes up a large share of the total. On a larger order it spreads across more stems, so the cost per flower falls.
How long is the freshness guarantee on Interflora orders?+
The freshness guarantee runs for 7 days, and Interflora ranks 3 of 20 on that measure. It sits at the stronger end of the flower delivery category, which matters most for birthdays and anniversaries where arrival day matters.
