Florists in Arlington, MA

Arlington has six florists, the 4th largest selection in Middlesex County, where Cambridge accounts for 14 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. All of them list a website as well as a phone number.

If nothing here suits, the nearest larger choice is Somerville, about 4 miles away, with 10 florists. Bear in mind that a shop delivering out of its own town will usually charge more for it and may need more notice.

Summer brings the widest local choice of the year, much of it from small farms selling directly to nearby shops. A florist here can often name the grower in season, which is a good sign and worth asking about.
