Our verdict on each
Freddie's Flowers

Pros and cons
Freddie's Flowers
Pros
- Delivery costs £0 on every order, so the £28 entry price is close to what you pay
- A freshness guarantee of 10 to 14 days runs well past the 7 upper quartile among subscription brands
- Subscriptions sit alongside bouquets and letterbox flowers in the bouquets, letterbox flowers and subscriptions list
Cons
- Same day delivery is no, so gifts with a fixed date need planning ahead
- The £28 entry price sits at rank 14 of 27 brands, so cheaper entry points exist
- The 10 to 14 days guarantee is the standout benefit but there is no plant or dried flower line, unlike Fleurop
FTD
Pros
- Same day delivery is available, with order cutoffs at 2pm weekdays, 1pm weekends.
- A 7 day freshness guarantee covers the bouquet on arrival.
- Range covers bouquets and plants, so flowers and plants come from one order.
Cons
- Orders start at $45, higher than the cheaper entry points in the comparison.
- Delivery costs $19.99 on top, so a single bouquet pays for itself less easily than at Blumenshop.
- Product types are limited to bouquets and plants, with no letterbox flowers or dried flowers as Fleurop lists.
Who each suits
Freddie's Flowers
Who it suits
- People in GB or DE who want flowers on a recurring schedule rather than one-off gifts
- Gift senders who care more about a freshness guarantee than about same day arrival
- Shoppers who want free delivery without adding shipping to the £28 entry price
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone needing flowers delivered the same day
- Buyers after plants or dried flowers, where Fleurop covers more product types
- Readers who want a single European delivery footprint beyond GB and DE
FTD
Who it suits
- US buyers sending a bouquet or plant today and needing same day delivery.
- Gift buyers who want personalization and a 7 day freshness guarantee on the order.
- People who would rather call or chat than search a help centre, since support runs on phone, chat and email.
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers on a tight budget, since $45 and $19.99 are heavier than Blumenshop's entry.
- European shoppers, because the company sits in US and Serenata Flowers is the UK option here.
- Anyone after letterbox flowers or dried flowers, which bouquets and plants does not cover and Fleurop does.

Questions about each
Freddie's Flowers
How much do flowers cost at Freddie's Flowers?+
Bouquets start at £28. Delivery is listed at £0, so the entry figure is not padded with shipping on a standard order. Subscriptions are charged on top of the bouquet you pick, so a recurring plan costs more than the £28 starting price suggests.
Does Freddie's Flowers offer same day delivery?+
Same day delivery is no, so a gift that has to land today will not work here. Plan a day ahead instead. The order cutoff of 8pm sets how late you can order for a planned delivery slot, so earlier ordering gives you more choice of timing.
FTD
How much does a bouquet from FTD cost?+
Prices start at $45, and delivery is charged separately at $19.99. So the real cost of a first order is the entry price plus the shipping fee, and there is no subscription that would spread that cost across repeat months. Orders are one-off, so nothing recurs after the first delivery.
Can FTD deliver flowers the same day?+
Yes, same day delivery is offered, alongside next day delivery for planned orders. What decides whether a same day order makes it is the cutoff, which sits at 2pm weekdays, 1pm weekends. A morning order has more room than a late afternoon one, and weekend cutoffs fall earlier in the day.
