Reviews of Oleander Floral Design (Florist)

Dan Russell

Jen and her staff at Oleander put together a beautiful spring arrangement for my wife for Mother’s Day. The quality of the flowers was wonderful, and timed perfectly to open at home, rather than past their peak at the shop. Previous arrangements we’ve had from them during the past few weeks are also still going strong and really help to brighten up the house with everything going on around us all. I could not recommend them more!

I retained Oleander Floral Design as my wedding florist. Jennifer took the time to meet with me, discussed what I would like, and she worked around my budget. On the day of my wedding, all the flowers were delivered on time. I was so very impressed by the gorgeous bouquets and centrepieces! Jennifer recommended peonies as it was in season, and I had so many comments from our guests about how beautiful they were. I would definitely recommend Oleander to anyone. You can count on them for making stunning floral arrangements for a perfect wedding day!

This is the best florist in The Kingsway. I also love their gift store where I always pick up some unique and quirky items. The staff are always very friendly! :)

Alison Bourne

Best cards and gifts in the neighbourhood. I also love the home decor items. Beautiful flowers and design too. One stop shop!!!

Naomi Jayne

Jennifer was absolutely incredible!!!! I came in with a rough idea of what I wanted in my bouquet and she went above and beyond - she was creative and open to all my ideas. She definitely helped us keep within our budget. She want above and beyond. I am attaching all the different floral arrangements she made. She even included bonuses as a kind and generous surprise for me on the day. She was so patient with all my changes of mind and she presented me with endless options so I knew I had my dream arrangements.

Renée Anne Bouffard-McManus

Beautiful and unique gift ideas and floral arrangements. Kind and friendly poeple. Glad to have such a lovely little store in the neighbourhood.

Andy Bush

Stunning flower arrangements! This is the best Etobicoke Florist by far.

This year, my mother-in-law introduced me to Oleander and I am thankful she did! Their flower arrangements are always stunning, and the delivery is always on time. I have used their services multiple times this year, to send flowers to my friends, family and even for myself. It’s been so lovely to have something beautiful to add some cheer to a tough year. I highly recommend ordering your next flower arrangement from them! A big thank you to the Oleander team for making this year a little brighter for myself and those I care about.

Lynne Norman

I am so glad I found this florist. I had called a couple of others who were rather off putting when I said what I needed. They said they would call me back to let me know if they could fill the order. No one called me back. However Oleanders were professional, kind and listened to what I wanted and asked if I had checked their website to see the arrangements offered. Bonnie was very helpful it was a pleasure talking with her. I wanted Daffodils for St David’s Day for my 98 year old father. Bonnie said that would be no problem. She also explained their contactless delivery service. Which will be great. Very courteous, professional and reasonably priced also. Highly recommend these people.????????

Janet Fanaki

A local gem! Oleander creates beautiful floral arrangements plus they have a gorgeous giftware shop right next door. I have picked up the nicest items for myself and for gifts. Jennifer and her team are the nicest folks, ready to help and package everything beautifully.

Emma Brown

The flowers just look stunning I always use oleander floral design when buying flowers. They stay looking amazing for days!!

Dawn Png

I was introduced to Oleander when they did a collaboration with Bake Sale (another awesome local business). Love this local florist, their blooms are always fresh and gorgeous, and their team is super friendly and helpful!

Moe El-Abdallah

I've ordered flowers from Oleander a few times. Most times I call, give them a price range and a few details of my preferred colours or style and I let them do their thing. They've never disappointed. Their flowers always look amazing and last for a long time. I find the staff very friendly and always willing to accomodate last minute orders.

Jan Wilkes

I highly recommend Oleander Floral Design. My experience with them has been fantastic. I have found them friendly, honest, respectful, professional and they really listen to me. Their communication is excellent and their willingness to please is exceptional. When they understand what I am looking for they always go "above and beyond" to serve me as a valued customer. That's how i feel, because they really do value their customers.

Yvonne Monestier

I first learned about this lovely flower shop and sister home goods store when I received a beautiful bouquet after giving birth to my daughter. It has been my go-to ever since! The flowers are immaculate and keep for a long time. Everyone at the shop is always friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a unique bouquet or hostess gift...or to simply treat yourself!

Lauren Coxon

The staff here are so creative, professional and friendly. It’s similar to walking into a friends garden. They greet you after a long day, have a chat, literally stop to smell the flowers. There is something for everyone’s taste and enjoyment. They have advice and laughs to spare. I always recommend this florist every time. The attached gift shop is a perfect place to find a unique, funny, beautiful, and sentimental gift.

Reggie and Anouska

Worked with Katie a couple weeks ago to put together a bouquet for my engagement photos and she was so responsive and helpful! She provided a document with all the flowers she thought would be best and provided suggestions for what she though could work. Thanks so much! So lucky to have a neighbourhood florist as amazing as Oleander.

Karen Grys

I have known Jennifer and her team for a very long time. They have served me and my family through the very best of family times and the most difficult and challenging of life events. Whether you are looking for a more classic arrangement or something a little more funky, this team will pay close attention to your wishes and will not disappoint. Their floral arrangements are fresh, vibrant and beautiful. The gift store is filled with unique items that are well suited to any shopper looking to purchase a sweet (usually Canadian made ????????) gift. Oleander Florists have been a Kingsway staple for the past 15 years. Trust them to send something special on your behalf.

Beautiful gift offerings, easy to order online and provides local delivery. Can't wait to visit in-person and check out the shop.

Alex Cooke

Dear Jennifer, I would like to say a huge thankyou to you (and your driver) for arranging delivery of my order yesterday despite it being past the delivery cut-off time. I realise you did not have to do this and that it may have caused you some inconvenience and extra cost so it is even more appreciated. It goes without saying the flowers were beautiful and were well received. Alex, London, England.

Patti Maloney

Oleander provides weekly flower arrangements to our condo and I have also received and given flowers from here. They are always gorgeous, beautiful designs and long lasting.

Oleander was recommended to us as we were planning our June wedding. We wanted simple, elegant, we wanted freesias to be included to remember my late mother, we wanted peonies to make us think of June and Spring. Katie from Oleander did not disappoint. She was amazingly helpful and a total pleasure to work with. Attached is a photo of one of the altar flower creations that I brought home from the wedding. On behalf of Graham and me, THANK YOU! Judi

Michelle Brown

Love you all! Thank you for being making the most amazing flowers. T

Rose Garritsen

Every time my son sends me flowers from this florist, the bouquet is even nicer and more unique than the last one. The flowers are always fresh and beautifully arranged. I highly recommend this florist.

Patsy Reid

Our wedding was absolutely beautiful thanks to Jennifer and her team at Oleander. They listened and knew exactly what to do when it came to the bouquets, arrangements, corsages, and boutonnières. Everyone who works here is extremely friendly and professional. They will definitely be my go-to in future!! Fondly, Patsy

Cristina Siviero

Wonderful place to buy fresh flowers and find beautiful floral arrangements. Great customer service.

Bianca Flattery

Used this florist for my wedding and was completely embarrassed. Imagine expecting a fishbowl vase filled with commercial mums and ivory, and instead receiving a fishbowl vase with 1 commercial mum floating in the bottom of it. I was very specific in the images that I sent via email and showed in our initial meeting. It completely dampened my mood for my wedding. My tables all looked so bare. I am not sure where the miscommunication occurred.

Christine Peacock-Bedikian

Worst experience we have ever had and so disappointed with their arrangement and customer service. Will never use them again. Very happy to report that we found an amazing florist (located at Humbertown ) called Vanderfleet Flowers Florist’s. I would highly recommend and their flowers are fresh and the florists are fantastic.

Vali Stone

Dec. 24th at 1:30 pm I needed flowers for a friend who was going to be alone at Christmas. I knew there would be a slim chance anyone would do this for me at this late date and time, but Oleander did. The owner offered to deliver them herself. Who does that anymore! And an amazing bouquet of flowers. Thank you!!!!!!

Rachel Gosein

I ordered a floral arrangement but unfortunately the timeslots available for delivery were 2 days from when I wanted the flowers delivered. I wrote to them and next day delivery was very kindly coordinated. The flowers are gorgeous and the delivery accommodation made was very much appreciated. Would definitely order from this shop again!

Jeanne Brown

A red ribbon goes to oleander..flower power!! innovative, rare cultivars Made for my son to bring to his floral design mother who is ill. Quality..

Angelica Dinglasan

Very nice staff. The lady at the front made me a lovely bouquet.

RB Cooke

It is a pleasure to recommend Oleander Floral Design. We provided Jen with a 3 hour notice to prepare floral arrangements for a funeral service. It was a Scottish theme and she was able to provide the ferns and thistle that we were looking for. The arrangements were creative and the flowers were fresh. I can't believe that she pulled this off with such short notice! Thanks to you and your staff Jen. Brad and Sue

Baby Plastina

This is the top florist I have used. My friends and family always love the flowers I get from here for them. Like one of the other reviews said, I wish ppl start sending me flowers from here :) Never disappointed. Always a generous amount and display.

Kerry Welch

Two weeks ago, May 2016, we had the most beautiful flowers at our wedding... People commented on the arrangements and the colours - they were really lovely, simple and elegant and exactly what we wanted... So thank you!!! We can't wait to have another event that needs your creations!

Marco Orla

Oleander did our wedding flowers and ceremony backdrop for our wedding in November 2017. Jennifer and the team did an amazing job and we got so many compliments! We don't know much about flowers and really relied on them to walk us through and do a lot of the flower selection. Jen's idea to add birch logs and fabric to our fireplace mantel backdrop looked incredible. They liaised with our venue to ensure all drop offs and pick ups were done seamlessly without us having to get involved. Thanks Oleander for making our space look beautiful!

Missy Geiger

I absolutely love this gorgeous store. The flowers are always in the best condition, the customer service is spot on, and the store front is gorgeous!! I had my eye on Oleander long before I ever went in and I was pleasantly surprised on all fronts!

Beth Endean

WOW! Last Friday night I hired Oleander Floral Design to decorate Arta Gallery in the Distilleries for my 50th Birthday party. Their designs were stunning... Beautiful vase arrangements with orchids, roses, ranunculus and hydrangeas in pinks and greens adorned the tables. Candles in a bright pink added the light to set the mood. I walked in and was shaking as the art gallery looked so beautiful. There were different sizes of vases making each different area important and inviting including a lovely arrangement in the washroom. I can not thank everyone at Oleander for making a special night incredible. Just Fabulous!

Kaitlyn Guay

Always my go-to florist! Their designs are always gorgeous and last longer than you'd even expect. And such a pleasant team!

Alison Gordon

I am SO thrilled with Oleander Floral Design! Once again their amazing team put together a beautiful arrangement of flowers and lovely gift shop items for my mom. During this time of social distancing she was THRILLED! I also received the most beautiful arrangement myself (thanks to my hubs). Thanks again Oleander - you are the best!

Katie

I highly recommend Oleander for it's consistently beautiful, fresh, stylish floral arrangements for all occasions. I received the most gorgeous arrangement for a special occasion and it is stunning. I have been fortunate to have received and sent flowers from Oleander. The flowers are high-quality and long lasting. The design is classic but yet still contemporary. The staff are are friendly, knowledgeable, and go above and beyond. We love to incorporate Oleander centrepieces and arrangements into our family dinners and special occasions.

Stephen Bezer

Absolutely outstanding customer service, pleasant and professional team and outstanding artistry with the flowers.

Daniela Rella

By far the best florist in Toronto! I have been a dedicated shopper for years and will continue to support this great team of women! Always an incredible experience! You are all wonderful and I love my weekly visits for fresh cut flowers and other treats. I applaud you all for your kindness, patience and creativity. ????

In a crunch after my previous florist completely messed up they came through with ordering me 50 small succulents for my baby shower. They so accommodating and thoughtful of the situation especially since I was 8 months pregnant and hormonal and I was planning my own baby shower. I have never felt so relieved, comfortable and confident in a vender. And to this day I buy exclusively from them. All my flowers. And every week my daughter gets a fresh bouquet. Thank you for being wonderful.

Susan Grimes

The bouquet of cut flowers I received this week as a thank you were certainly a beautiful selection but I want to especially note the way Oleander thoughtfully packages the cut flower bouquets - with the stem ends sitting in a soaked square of oasis to ensure they're not stressed during delivery. Smart and thoughtful.

Laurie Permack

Jennifer and her team at Oleander are amazing. The customer service is outstanding and we get so many compliments on the terrariums that we have in our office!

Diana Sisto Alviani

I LOVE this place. I never have to worry about what my loved ones are going to receive when I order from here because its always beautiful! I use the website for easy ordering and I never have any issues. I only receive great feedback from my friends and family who receive these beauties. Now if I only I can get someone to send me flowers from here ;) They also have super cute gifts and accessories.

One of the best floral boutiques! From their awesome card selection and gifts, to their beautiful arrangements, Oleander does not disappoint. I called to place a short-notice order for a graduation arrangement and the lady who assisted me over the phone was so kind and helpful. When I picked up the arrangement, I was shocked at how stunning it really was. The flowers were so vibrant and fragrant, and arranged so tasteful. Oleander knocked it out of the park with the (lux) Garden Style Bright & Bold arrangement; it really is a show stopper. Would highly recommend to anyone, and always do. You will not be disappointed!

Hannah Boyd

I attended a fall flower arranging workshop here a few weeks ago and loved it! The session was very informative, the staff who taught the class were great and the final product was beautiful! Great value for money. I am excited to try the winter wreath making class in a few weeks time.

Jocelyne Fletcher

I ordered flowers for a party, and to keep costs down I provided my own vases and asked for a particular colour scheme but otherwise let the designers have creative control. The centerpieces were beautiful and worked perfectly for the occasion. They even fit me in on a short deadline with no issue. Great shop- and their gift shop (just down the road) is so lovely too!

If you think Oleander is Beautiful from the outside just wait until you meet the people who work there! You know when you meet someone and you just like them? That’s what happened when I had my first consultation at Oleander. Jennifer and her staff are attentive, detail oriented, patient and down to earth. They have a vast knowledge of plants and flowers which was extremely helpful since we were working with a moderate budget for our wedding. They introduced us to new types of flowers that we’d never seen before, and gave numerous ideas to work with. Her team achieved everything we wanted within our budget. The Bouquets were simply Gorgeous and arrived early. Our centerpieces turned out even better than imagined! We loved that they were able to make unique arrangements for each table. We would highly recommend Oleander for Special Occasions and for everyday flowers since they are fresh and high quality.
