  Memorial City Florist celebrated its 30th year in business in 2005. We currently have three generations of our family involved in our daily operations, so we are truly family owned and operated. Our motto is "Casual elegance with a personal touch". We offer arrangements in traditional and contemporary styles using flowers grown all over the world. It is our philosophy that if we would not be proud to take the arrangement home to our own mothers, then it doesn't leave our shop. We strive to make each and every arrangement as special as the person receiving it. We guarantee to exceed your expectations.
