Review from Stefan L.

Came to the area to pay respects to our dearly departed and wanted to get some flowers. This place is still here and glad that they are. Sandwiched between two cemeteries, just down the road from Best Buy, Flowerland offers the bouquets for $3 each. It's a great price since my departed relatives would be mad at me if I spent too much money on them.
I took them inside and the clerk cuts off the ends and advises us to leave these in the cellophane wrapper so the wind doesn't blow them around. Good idea. Don't want to mess up the relatives grave sites with loose flowers blowing around.
The bouquets are simple and colorful. Since it decorates the grave site and not going on the dining room table, it looks fine for the price. My departed relatives would want me not to fuss on spending too much money on them. "Don't worry Uncle, I got such a deal!" I know someone is smiling.
By the way, from my relatives grave site they can see Best Buy. Yikes! -

We had just returned from a memorial and BFF wanted to stop off at a cemetery to visit a relative. So, she stopped off at this floral shop where she's picked up flowers before. I went in to buy flowers with her and wasn't all that ikmpressed with their pre-prepared small bouquets. The flowers consisted of some dull astromerias, brownish poms, a calla here and there. In my opinion, kind of ugly.
Inside, were a few slightly larger bouquets which cost 2 bucks more with slightly better looking flowers only because of a rose or daylily.
The flowers down the road at Paul's are much better looking and a better buy for the price (more and better looking). This is a pretty small shop too. -

This is a small shop that's easy to run in and run out of quickly. Parking couldn't have been easier. Out front there was a display of $3 bouquets - perfect for taking to the cemetery. The bouquets were fresh, colorful, and there was a nice selection.
I picked two bouquets, thinking I'd put one bouquet on each side of the crypt, took them inside, and was greeted by a warm, friendly lady. I looked around for a few moments. There was a nice selection inside the shop as well. She asked if I wanted the stems cut for the cemetery. I said yes, and the tears started flowing. She asked me to wait a moment, went to the back, brought out some Kleenex for me and then cut the stems and wrapped the bouquets.
When I arrived at the cemetery, I realized the bouquets were larger than I thought. I was easily able to divide one bouquet in two for the vases on the sides of the crypt. The second bouquet I took home (see picture).
The easy parking, economical prices, nice fresh selection, and kind customer service will bring me back here again. -

Flowerland is a very small shop right in the middle of the Colma cemetery district. Easy parking off El Camino Real. They did some very nice flower arrangements for a funeral. The lady who does the arrangements knows her stuff as a florist.
I took away one star because the owner/manager Rich was not the most friendly proprietor. So if you can deal with a bit of his crankiness, go there. -

Have been coming here for many many years. My brother-in-law took us here way back when because it is next to the Woodlawn cemetery where my grandparents are buried. Thereafter, so are some of our friends and more recently, my father.
This place is small but the staff is always very friendly and helpful. Their bouquets are very inexpensive, as are their selection of flowers. The Asian lady who has worked there for years are not there anymore, time is hard and they need to cut down on expenses. She does come back to help out when it's busy.
This will never be a happy place but it's good to count on the friendly faces. -

I just used this shop last week, based on a recommendation from the funeral home. I really appreciate that Rich took the order over the phone, helped me decide what was appropriate, etc. I had to order flowers for my grandfather's funeral and I had no idea what was typical (you know how it is--relatives assign a job to you). I also placed the order just 24 hours before the funeral! The price was very reasonable and the flowers were beautiful--exceeded my expectations.
Giving 4 stars instead of 5 only because communication could have been a little better, but I'm not complaining. I was very happy with the experience. I hope I don't need their services again too soon, but I won't hesitate to recommend them. -

They ended up giving us a really good deal on 5 arrangements that we ordered for a funeral. The rate given was way below other florist in the neighborhood.
They all turned out beautiful and they were really helpful in helping us pick what flowers to use and what would look nice in an arrangement.
Its a cute little shop with a great mom and pop feel =)
