Wonderful people to work with. I can always count on Lotus Garden Center to deliver amazing floral designs and provide a great service. I worked with their team to come up with the perfect design for my friend's wedding. The bride was blown away by how lovely the arrangements were. She desired a bright and colorful display to accent the venue.I requested the delivery early in the morning and it was delivered on time by a friendly staff member. They've shown me great respect and attention during the entire process and I'll forever be grateful by the services they offered. Bravo!! If I need an arrangement again they are the company I'll trust to fulfill it. More...

I needed a couple of plants and had a hard time finding something nice. We'll worry no more the Lotus Garden Center is my go to place. Beautiful pots fountains and other garden accessories abound. I was treated with "if I may be of help but we will leave you alone if you prefer". I preferred for 5 minutes and then got help great service great value and lots of alternatives to choose from. Their fresh cut flowers were so beautiful. I will be back! More...

I live out of town and ordered flowers for my daughters first week at a new job. Â I just asked them to make something special and to deliver it the same day, Lotus Garden Center made a beautiful arrangement and had it at my daughters office in several hours. Â The pictures my daughter sent me of the arrangement were more than I had envisioned. I will use Lotus Garden as my go to florist from now on. More...

I just received the most gorgeous orchid from a Lotus Garden today for my belated birthday. Wow! It is spectacular! I would absolutely recommend them and use them without hesitation. They are high end and classy with elegant flowers. I received numerous flowers from them after my mother passed away last year as well and every single one from them was breathtakingly gorgeous. John at Lotus Garden was wonderful and his customer service is amazing. I wish more businesses operated like them. They are a "no fern or baby's breath" type of florist thank goodness!!! I am admittedly a huge flower snob and I know that anything from them will be amazing. Thank you Lotus Garden and John. You absolutely made my day! More...

My beautiful mother loves flowers. She frequently entertains and is involved in several philanthropic groups in the Desert. She absolutely knows her flowers. Â She is currently healing from some scary heart procedures and keeps getting flowers. She just told me "none can compare to Lotus Garden Center! Â The best come from them!" Â She directs everyone to go there now - not only for the high quality, but the unique designs! More...

John and his team are INCREDIBLE. My fabulous wedding planner had to convince me that I needed flowers  for my wedding at all, and boy, am I glad she did! The work was nothing short of spectacular. From the first time I met John, my now-husband and I were struck by his thoughtfulness and knowledge, and how carefully he listened to understand our vision and style. The arrangements he brought to the trial were fantastic, and the final product reflected the tweaks we requested. The chuppa was show-stopping, and the bouquet was so gorgeous that I took it with me to my honeymoon in Joshua Tree to spark a little extra joy at our Airbnb. Truly, can't say enough good things about this team. More...

I am SO incredibly pleased with the service and quality of the flowers I ordered! Â Mallory assisted me on the phone while ordering a sympathy bouquet for my Mother. Â I did not have a lot of money and asked for a high quality petite bouquet. Â Mallory was so kind, warm, patient and sympathetic. Â To give her an idea of what I was looking for, I directed her to Lotus Garden Center's Yelp photos page and pointed out a bouquet I liked. Â She was able to make the prettiest arrangement within my budget.Based on my experience, I HIGHLY recommend using Lotus Garden Center for any floral design & delivery you may have in the Coachella Valley.

John knocked our wedding out of the park. I was struck by how original his work looked, and yet how well he met our own vision, parameters, and budget.  I felt John and the Lotus team achieved a perfect balance between letting their creative juices flow, while also remaining open to our feedback. Special touches such as boutonnières that varied across the male wedding party to gold ribbon lining the vases to match our color scheme took our florals above and beyond.  One thing that we also appreciated was how closely the day of arrangements matched (or even exceeded) the demo flowers which John was kind enough to show us over FaceTime since we couldn't visit in person.  I would ABSOLUTELY use John and the Lotus team if we had to do it all over again. Thank you team! More...

Bought a bouquet here for my wife's birthday for the second year in a row. Â My wife is an accomplished gardener, so it's hard to impress her with bought flowers. Â But the flower seller at Lotus Garden has done it again, just blown her away with the quality of the flowers, the imaginative selection, the beautiful arrangement. Â He's a flower genius, and I'll be back whenever we're in Palm Desert. Â Seven days after purchase, and the flowers are still budding out! Â Look fresh as the day I bought them. More...

Mallory from Lotus Garden did the bouquets and boutonnieres for my wedding and I am SO obsessed with how they came out!! She used her creativity along with my one request for dahlias and executed the arrangements just perfectly. The flowers were stunning and Mallory's work stands out! She also worked with my Mom to add a charm to my bouquet. I highly recommend the Lotus Garden and will always come back for any floral arrangements and will be spreading the word! Thank you, Lotus Garden, for making my Husband's and my special day that much more unforgettable. More...

Over the top good. Â Thank you, John, for the great service and beautiful flowers. Â I've not visited your shop just your website to get a phone number. The orchid centerpiece was the most beautiful I have ever seen and the friends we were visiting couldn't believe its beauty. Â Then, three days later, the three matching Valentine's Day arrangements were delivered and were perfect. Â You made me the champion of the week during the visit.

They are amazing! I needed a floral arrangement designed and delivered for my mother's birthday. I am out of town and have used several floral services and local companies with disappointing results. I was referred to Lotus Garden by a friend and I am so happy with their kindness and thoughtfulness - not only to me but also to the creativity in the arrangement they delivered. My mother loved it and it was gorgeous. So happy to know of this gem of a place for the future orders and when I come to visit! More...

Words can't not express how enamored we are with the 2 floral arrangements they did for our trade show. We purchase for every conference and this by far is a complete show stopper and what beautiful dramatic pieces they did for the price. I'm just in awe of how pretty they are. This for sure will have everyone stopping by our booth. More...

I haven't written a Yelp review ever (I think) and the craftsmanship of Lotus Garden Center prompted me to do so. The team provided the arrangements for my wedding at The Living Desert on May 13. I know very little about flowers so I couldn't and didn't provide much guidance other than that I wanted some succulents and other plants native to the desert along with a few general comments on colors. John was so patient and provided amazing advice, including adding some candles, and what he and his team produced was extraordinary. The recommendations were spot on and the customer service unparalleled. The guests oohed and aahed over the centerpieces, and the arch, placed expertly in front of a small waterfall under which we said our vows, was gorgeous. Â I couldn't be happier. I'd give 6 stars if I could! More...

I can't say enough good things about Lotus Garden or the flower arrangements they created for my wedding/reception. John was so incredibly nice and helpful, and such an artist. The flowers were simply spectacular, from the huge altar vases, to the bouquets, to the table decorations. And some additional details, like candles and flowers on the wedding cake, just made everything perfect. Wonderful experience from beginning to end, in every way. Thank you, John and the rest of the team! More...

As a Judge who has performed hundreds of weddings, I am certainly aware of the variations in quality in floral services.  For my daughter's wedding (yes, I was the officiant) we chose Lotus Garden Center in Palm Desert.What an amazing experience!  John Southorn was extraordinarily patient, helpful, and ultimately provided the most gorgeous arrangements I have ever experienced.  From the smallest boutonnière to the grand altar display, every floral arrangement was magnificent.  His staff created a magical ambience.  My only "issue" was that he might have outdone my Ceremony!  Call John; from your first contact you will understand my exuberance.

Stunning, gorgeous, perfect, so many words to describe the wonderful craftsmanship that went into our wedding flowers. I absolutely adored them. And they didn't cost an arm and a leg. I was very specific about what I wanted, and they did not disappoint. They carefully delivered the flowers to our wedding venue, and my bouquet and hair piece to my hotel. John and Mary were so lovely and I can't thank them enough! We planned our entire wedding online fromAustralia, so everything was a gamble, and we were VERY lucky to find Lotus Flower Garden. More...

Excellent customer service! I placed an order ahead of time for flowers to be delivered to friends celebrating their 10-year anniversary, only to realize a few days later they would probably take a trip to celebrate. I asked if I could put the order on hold until I figured out when they would be back. The staff was very accommodating. When I finally reached my friends, they had just come back from a trip and were getting ready to leave again.Therefore, a flower delivery several weeks after the occasion would be out of place.I called Lotus to explain the situation and they very kindly offered to refund me in full. Everyone I talked to was very nice and I will definitely use them when I have future needs. More...

I'm usually not a yelper. However, my future wife was in Palm Desert for her bachelorette party and I wanted to send flowers to her hotel. So... I yelped. Found Lotus and went for it. The lady helping me was phenomenal. I asked for the flowers to get sent out the same day. No problem. No premium on the delivery cost. The flowers were delivered in 3 hours. Are you kidding me? That is absolutely wonderful! The next phone call I received was from the owner himself. Thanking me for my purchase and insuring satisfaction. Palm Desert. This place is a must use. Great business.
