Florists in Venice, FL

Venice has seven florists, the 2nd largest selection in Sarasota County, where Sarasota accounts for 40 on its own. That is enough to compare on style and price rather than taking the first quote, and independent shops differ more on both than their listings suggest. Five list a website; the rest take orders by phone.

If nothing here suits, the nearest larger choice is Sarasota, about 16 miles away, with 40 florists. Bear in mind that a shop delivering out of its own town will usually charge more for it and may need more notice.

The growing season runs later here than almost anywhere, so local material is still coming in when northern shops have switched entirely to imports. It is worth asking a local florist what they have been cut this week rather than ordering from a picture.
