Semaphore Flowers: Reviews
Negative experience: This was the perfect shop as I made a special purpose to drive here, walked in and was totally ignored by the staff as they were attending to flower orders so I thought no point. I will now drive much further to go somewhere that actually wants to say hello to me and then I’m happy to spend money in their store.
Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry you left feeling ignored, however our team was assisting other customers with existing flower orders at the time of your visit. We aim to acknowledge everyone as soon as possible, but we also don’t believe in “pouncing” on customers the moment they walk through the door, as many people prefer space to browse comfortably.
We appreciate your comments and will certainly take them on board as we continue to balance attentive service with giving customers room to enjoy the store at their own pace
Fantastic experience: disappointed with this purchase. We paid 250 for a florist’s choice arrangement, plus delivery, and sadly it did not feel worth the price. The orchid had several bare stems with very few blooming flowers, which made the arrangement look sparse and unfinished. It was sad to see, especially given the cost and expectations. We expected a fuller, more beautiful display for this price point. Unfortunately, this felt overpriced and misleading. Update: I wanted to update my review. After my original experience, the florist reached out and made an effort to resolve the situation by sending a new arrangement. I truly appreciate the follow-up and the care they took to make things right. The replacement flowers were beautiful, fresh, and much closer to what I had hoped for. Thank you for taking the feedback seriously and working to improve the experience.
Good afternoon Priska,
I was quite concerned to see the image posted in your Google review. I can assure you that the arrangement did not leave our store in that condition.
Due to courier availability at the time, we arranged your delivery via Uber, and it appears that the damage may have occurred during transit. I sincerely apologise for this experience.
I’m disappointed that we weren’t contacted directly, as we would have appreciated the opportunity to resolve this for you immediately.
To rectify the situation, I would like to offer a replacement arrangement and arrange collection of the original item as proof of damage for our follow-up with Uber.
Please let me know a suitable time for the replacement, and again, I apologise for the inconvenience caused.
Kind regards,
The team at Semaphore Flowers.
Fantastic experience: Friendly staff and beautiful flowers. Easily able to pop in after work and buy a bouquet as a gift for the following day without issues.
Fantastic experience: Have been getting flowers from here for 13 years. Great range , always fresh and lasting, which keeps my partner happy. Affordable price and friendly staff.
Fantastic experience: I ordered flowers for my 31 yr old son for Christmas, because last year,when I gave him a present,he said 'Mum, I'd just be happy with flowers'. Because he takes all the different colours of sunflowers seeds to his neighbours (who are envy),so that the whole street is in colour in their front yard.So this year I got him flowers. I couldn't have been more than happy with the flowers he loves and the florist added the Xmas greenery and the red bow! Beautiful. I was very happy as I'm sure he will be!!
Fantastic experience: Such a beautiful florist who provided bespoke arrangements for a memorial service. Highly recommend
Fantastic experience: Most beautiful flowers. Thanks. I wish I knew who did the original arrangement. It was amazing. Once transferred to our vase it lost some of its original perfection but still great. This shop also has a lot of decorative ornaments and props.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic flower arrangement - my daughter loved her flowers
Fantastic experience: Thanks to the team for helping out with a last minute arrangement for a birthday. Easy to work with, clear on communication, and flexible when we had to change the delivery details
Negative experience: Incredibly overpriced Very nice & friendly staff though
Fantastic experience: Always order my flowers from here. Happy every time I order ❤️
Fantastic experience: Exceptional service and such a beautiful range to choose from - they not only sell flowers but also stock a beautiful range of home deco and gifts. Highly recommend this florist!
Negative experience: Paid $200 for a rose and lily bouquet with a vase (valued at $20). Received the bouquet which had only 3 roses... That's a steep price tag, even on a commercial holiday like Valentine's. Would not recommend a custom order, would consider changing the review if there was some sort of mistake but I have yet to receive a response after contacting them through the website. Update: there was no mistake. $200 is the price tag for a 3x roses and lilies bouquet.
Fantastic experience: Great service, lovely staff
Fantastic experience: Love it
Fantastic experience: T set a specific request due to my wife's Birthday and our 52nd Wedding Anniversary falling in the middle of a long weekend. The result was a potted plant (an impressive Orchid) and a bunch of what appeared to be native flowers in a bunch delivered to our door and surprising my wife as hoped. Excellent service. Great flowers.
Fantastic experience: Semaphore flowers went out of their way to help me with an unusual request. The end result was lovely and very special. The staff were great, and the shop looked and smelt amazing.
Fantastic experience: Staff here are always great and helpful. Decent selection and customisable. Very reasonable prices
Fantastic experience: The most exquisite and diverse range not just in flowers they helped customise my red roses bouquet for the 5th anniversary and my partner has taken care of them ever since. Highly recommend!
Positive experience: Very professional service. Fabulous flower. Just as I ordered.
Fantastic experience: Always love the flowers from here. The staff are amazing and very helpful. I usually order a bright colourful bouquets and the staff and presentation have never disappointed.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful flowers and fantastic staff
Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing service and attention to detail. I called in last minute for a valentines gift for my partner (typical male thing to do) and needed them delivered at a certain time. Now obviously this is my fault and not the business. They weren’t to sure at the start so I let it go, within about 5 minutes of hanging up they called back to tell me they were going to get them sorted asap and sent off straight away. Now if this doesn’t show loyalty I don’t know what else does. Without a doubt the best customer service I’ve encountered in a long time and will forever be grateful. Will definitely be recommending and a regular customer in the future, will just call a day or so earlier next time
Fantastic experience: Stunning arrangement. Flowers beautiful and fresh. Service was friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend Semaphore Flowers

Fantastic experience: This team really out did what i wanted! Very happy with the level of understanding and direction given to what was imagined. Thankyou to the amazing team for listening and delivering perfection.
Fantastic experience: I received this most stunning bunch of flowers for Mother’s Day !! This was the first time from Semaphore Flowers and I must say ….. so impressed !! I have received numerous arrangements from Tynte Street and Chill Flowers over the years, but this bunch from Semaphore has blown me away… the quality is just amazing !!! Thankyou to my beautiful daughter and son in law … and especially Semaphore Flowers !!
Fantastic experience: Always great customer service and highest quality flowers.
Negative experience: Really scrimping at this time of year! Very small bunches for the $ cost ~ flowers dead day 2

Fantastic experience: Always beautiful flowers & lovely service
Fantastic experience: Staff were fantastic and very helpful
Fantastic experience: The flowers were absolutely beautiful and fresh. Delivered on time as well
Fantastic experience: Due to the travel restrictions and processes I have been unable to visit my partner for a year and a half now. I was at least able to send her some really nicely pieced bouquet of flowers locally on the day of her birthday. The Hessian beauty. It was accompanied with some delicious chocolates which she's a huge fan of so that was a nice bonus. Thanks again Semaphore Flowers for your efforts in communication and delivering such an amazing experience. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely great service, put my order through late Saturday night and was ready on time the next day, mum was absolutely delighted on mother's Day. Best quality of flowers I have ever had to date. Cheers guys
Negative experience: So disappointed. What I ordered for my daughter in law is nothing like what she got, plus some flowers were droopy! I'm not one to complain, but this lot of flowers looked shocking!
Fantastic experience: The sympathy flowers we had delivered were even more beautiful than in the reference photo. They were ordered just before midday and were delivered before the end of the day. I’m very happy with the quality and service and will order with Semaphore Flowers again.
Fantastic experience: I live in America and my partner is currently living in Australia. I have used Semaphore flowers 3 times now and will continue to use them. Excellent service. The only thing is that I select a certain color of flower because they are my partners favorite color and 2 of the time she got a random bunch. I assume that is because they didn't have the color I wanted in stock. She loved them anyway and that's all that matters. Thank you Semaphore!
Fantastic experience: Semaphore Flowers always have fresh beautiful flowers. Love the extra gifts such as candles, they smell amazing. I was able to organise easy delivery even from interstate via the website.
Fantastic experience: Very friendly ladies,super efficient and nice to talk to highly recommended for all your flowers.
Fantastic experience: I have been going to my local florist shop for around 5 years now and have never been disappointed. Always friendly service from staff and good advice for those of us who can be challenged by what flowers to choose!! Keep up the good work :)
Fantastic experience: Simple online ordering provess, and the Flowers arrived a few houres later. Great Expereince.
Fantastic experience: Lovely flower arrangement. many thanks
Fantastic experience: Very user-friendly website. Easily ordered a florist's choice bunch within seconds & had it delivered on the same day. Will definitely be ordering again.
Fantastic experience: Excellent service. Beautiful flowers!! I highly recommend Semaphore Flowers for all occasions.
Fantastic experience: Ordered flowers from interstate to be delivered to a family member in SA. When I called they were very helpful with their advice on sorts of flowers and different prices. Very helpful. They arrived at the time I asked for and from the photos and word of mouth they were lovely. Thank you Semaphore Florist.
Fantastic experience: The lady I sent the flowers too was delighted. She sent me a photo of them and they looked vibrant and beautiful. Great job Semaphore Flowers.

Fantastic experience: Have ordered several times from Semaphore Flowers. Each time they are better than described and delivered on time. Thanks again!
Fantastic experience: Great service - so proficient. Beautiful arrangement and gift as ordered online. Will be happy to order from your business in the future.
Fantastic experience: Had never purchased before from here but the flowers were absolutely stunning!!
Negative experience: I am absolutely appalled with the product. You should be ashamed at the arrangement you sent on my behalf. I’m going to start off by saying that I didn’t want to write a review on google I was going to call and speak to you guys in person but after no one answering the phone after me trying to call several times you have left me no choice. I ordered flowers for my best friends 25th birthday. I asked for a $50 arrangement of some roses and gerberas or if you have some phalaenopsis orchids to send her an orchid. I was charged me additional $10 for delivery. I wasn’t expecting some extravagant arrangement but what she received is a total rip off. Me and my friend both worked as florists together in Melbourne before she moved to Adelaide so we both know what is a decent arrangement of flowers is and how much $50 should look like. She received a “vase” the size of a test tube with one stalk of a phalaenopsis orchid cut off from the plant with only about 3 flower blooms on it, one tiny head of freesia and one small branch of greenery. Firstly I asked for an orchid as in the plant not a flower spike (great way to waste the plant for the rest of the year btw) and secondly how is what looks like the flowers from the cutting bin shoved into a test tube worth $60 of anyone’s money? You have lost what could’ve been a loyal customer as I was looking for a reliable florist in my friends area to send flowers to every anniversary, special occasion and birthday as I am interstate. Well done. If I could’ve given you 0 out of 5 stars I would’ve. No florist should receive a joke as an arrangement on a special birthday.
Fantastic experience: I placed a next day order at 6:30pm. It arrived next day without any issues. I ordered a bright designer’s choice for my mum’s birthday. She loved them and they were beautiful. Would definitely recommend and use them again.
Fantastic experience: Got some flowers delivered for my mums birthday and they were just absolutely gorgeous and delivered quickly. I will be ordering from them again!
Fantastic experience: fantastic service, they called and made sure the card was correct, very friendly
Fantastic experience: Very good service and lovely blooms.
Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Semaphore Flowers as their service and communication skills are exceptional. They delivered the most gorgeous flower arrangements & included all that I had requested via a phone call. Thank you for proving a professional service.
Fantastic experience: Great service and flowers!
Negative experience: Disappointed in flowers received. Carnations in the bouquet (pale pink) where browned and curled, looked dirty and old and died within 5 days. Emailed florist within minutes of receiving the delivery with no response a week later. Have had better flowers from the supermarket
Positive experience: Excellent customer service, very well stocked, great location although due to location right in semaphore rd, parking can be difficult as it is limited along there, I found the staff helpful and accommodating
Fantastic experience: Friendly, helpful staff
Fantastic experience: Wonderful team, and beautiful flowers. They make sure to go local when they can, and are willing to make your flowers perfect!
Fantastic experience: Beautiful inside store, magnificent staff, gorgeous flowers and gifts. Highly recommended to all.
Fantastic experience: Lovely staff very friendly and helpful
Fantastic experience: Great customer service, amazing selection of flowers to choose from and of an extremely high quality. Will definitely be a repeat customer.
Fantastic experience: Had an amazing experience at Semaphore Flowers. The service was phenomenal and flowers always fresh. Ordered them in the shop and the delivery was perfecttt, I’d give 10 starts if I could!!
Fantastic experience: Best florist in Adelaide!! ❤️❤️ The owner was so helpful as always.
Negative experience: Lady was rude on two different occasions. Flowers didn't turn out the way i wanted and didn't last long
Negative experience: They were not open on late night shopping at 5-15 pm..
Negative experience: Flowers are way way overpriced, you can get far better bunches online from local shops and the dark hair lady is RUDE!
Positive experience: Busy place. Took a long time as I chose to wait. Only wanted bouquet for birth of baby. One was busy taking phone order ( took 20 min) the other doing an order. Have used them before and will again. Reasonably priced. ..
Negative experience: I preordered/paid for flowers for my grandpas funeral. On the day I went to pick up they said they had run out of what I ordered and gave me something different. On the day of the funeral I obviously wasn't in the mood to argue and I needed something for my late grandpa. Preordered, paid and they had my number I see no reason as to why they couldnt call me a day prior to give me the chance to go elsewhere. Not even an offer for refund. I've avoided them ever since, imagine having that pickle on your wedding day!
Negative experience: Have been going there for years and was quite dissapointed for mothers day. Went in and made an arrangement and i clearly stated i didnt want any flowers that have a strong odour or any kind of odour as my dad cant handle the smell and i was reasurred by two staff members that they wont smell. The flowers opened up a couple days later and the odour was so strong we had to put them outside and i called and complained and got nothing from the staff. I was quite dissapointed.
Positive experience: Ordered the night before but didn’t get delivered until 7pm the next day. What arrived was small and not as impressive as the photo on the website. Plus the lilac roses were wilting the same day we got them.
Fantastic experience: The best beautiful largest roses I have ever seen. Love this shop all flowers and gifts, reasonably priced, great delivery service too. 5+.
Fantastic experience: Great service and fresh flowers
Fantastic experience: My wedding fowers are amazing and don't forget the staff so great to work with thankyou Semaphore Flowers
Negative experience: Ordered flowers at 10:00 am to be delivered early afternoon. Called at 3:30 to find they still haven’t been delivered and was assured it would be there. End of the day they were still not delivered, will call tomorrow and see what happened. Not professional, poor service only thing they were good at was as taking my money quickly.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful flowers at a good price with friendly service. Could not ask for more
Fantastic experience: Friendly advice and good quality flowers
Negative experience: Whole corsage broke off of the band. Was being stabbed the whole time by sharp metal thing on the band, this also happened to 2-3 other girls at my formal. Total waste of 35-40 dollars
Fantastic experience: I am a 58 year old male have not bought flowers for a long time the owner and the delightful young lady bent over backwards to make a beautiful bunch of roses they would have to be one of the best florists in the world
Fantastic experience: Their new location is gorgeous. Staff have been fabulous for my recent purchases.
