The best flower shop in all of Sarasota!!! Not only do they have the most exotic top quality flowers, the best bouquet arrangements, but they also have natural products that nurture and truly care for your plants and garden. The magical guano fertilizer sold here saved my orchids, Our banana plant went from 3ft to 7 ft in less than two weeks! Allow your plants to give you the seclusion already planted around you. My garden veggies are also tripling in size! This shit is crazy!!!

My husband and I (recently married) spend half the year in Sarasota and frequently entertain. We both love fresh flowers so we typically include them in the table setting. One day my husband and a friend had lunch at a nearby French bakery. The friend mentioned what pretty flowers Gulf Gate Flowers had so they both stopped in after lunch. Two days later, I came home from tennis and my husband surprised me with a gorgeous arrangement! Herb, the owner, has a keen sense of style and keeps a plethora of fabulous fresh flowers in his coolers. It was just recently Valentine’s Day and lo and behold, my sweet husband ordered me flowers from here again. The arrangement was equally as gorgeous but altogether a different look! I love them!!! Some friends are hosting a fun little “Shindig” in their home to celebrate our marriage. I knew exactly what to give as a hostess gift….flowers from Gulf Gate. I went in person and picked out a great looking gold-leafed open clam shell and Herb had just received a shipment of Phaleonopsis orchids and oh my stars!!! Herb outdid himself. I can’t say enough kind things about Herb and his helper. They are unbelievably talented!!! I highly recommend Gulf Gate Flowers

Thank you for the beautiful, beautiful flowers we ordered from Gulf Gate Flowers for Mom's funeral -- a casket spray with two large urn arrangements. They were overwhelmingly beautiful, and communicated emotion through their designer's selection and careful arrangement — the gentle, dusty pink of the roses, the pale blue of the upright ones. The family was all very touched by their beauty. The requested symbolic cardinal you found to add to the center of the casket spray was perfect. Deeply grateful. p.s. -- They have lasted very well at home after the funeral.

Gulf Gate Flowers truly exceeded our expectations! The floral arrangements they provided for our event were absolutely beautiful and added the perfect touch to the evening. Guests commented all night on how lovely the flowers were and were genuinely delighted to take them home to enjoy. The quality, creativity, and care put into each arrangement were evident, and the flowers elevated the ambiance of the evening. We are so grateful to Gulf Gate Flowers for their talent and professionalism and highly recommend them for any special occasion.

I cannot say enough amazing things about Gulfgate Flowers. From the very first conversation, the owner immediately understood exactly what I wanted—even though I only gave him a few small hints and loosely described my vision. Somehow, he just got it. He brought out the perfect flowers to show me his ideas, walked me through his creative vision, and then designed the most spectacular arrangements—all while staying within my budget. What he created was not only beautiful, but absolutely show-stopping. The florals completely transformed my daughter’s bridal shower. They elevated the entire event, made it incredibly themed, cohesive, and delightfully over-the-top in the best possible way. I truly could not have imagined more perfect arrangements—they exceeded every expectation I had. His talent, intuition, creativity, and professionalism are unmatched. I will absolutely be going to Gulfgate Flowers for all of my floral needs in the future. If you’re looking for someone who can take a vision (even a loosely defined one) and turn it into something breathtaking, this is your florist. Simply amazing. 🌸✨

Used Gulf Gate flowers for my father’s memorial service and I had a great experience. They walked me through options and what is typical and we landed on the perfect design. Everything was beautiful and on time and went smoothly.

I can't say enough wonderful things about Herb and his team at Gulf Gate Flowers. I had two family members pass within months of each other, and every single arrangement, including several custom items for the funeral services and personal deliveries to family members, were absolutely perfect. Herb took the time to correspond with me via email and phone, and offered various options to help make everything just the way I imagined and within budget. If you're looking for an exceptional and caring florist in the Sarasota area, I would highly recommend Gulf Gate Flowers.
