Veldkamp’s Flowers
Voted Denver’s Best Florist
Veldkamp’s Flowers is a third generation, family owned & operated floral design firm. The Veldkamp family are long time residents of the Denver area. We operate a gorgeous floral design center in Lakewood, just minutes from downtown Denver. Our firm offers the best selection of farm fresh flowers and plants in town. If you stop in to visit our floral design center, we also have a really nice selection of occasion themed gifts. We have years of experience in designing and delivering traditional fresh cut flower arrangements. Our award winning floral design staff also creates luxurious, upscale wedding and event flowers. Veldkamp’s Flowers offers the best selection of sympathy flowers in the Denver market. Flowers are one of the top gifts for people celebrating life’s magic moments. When you order a fresh flower arrangement from us, we back it with our 100% customer satisfaction guarantee.
Veldkamp’s has been in business since 1959. We have one of the very best delivery teams in the business. Our firm makes daily delivery runs to all hospitals across the greater Denver metro area. People who need to send a get well arrangement, plant or gift to an area hospital can select from either local same day, or express flower delivery service. Need to send the arrangement outside of the Denver area? No problem. We also offer nationwide same day flower delivery. For those that need our sympathy flower service, we offer a beautiful selection of standing sprays, casket flowers, fireside baskets, urn flowers, flowering plants and more. Local same day and express delivery service is available to all area churches, mortuaries, funeral homes and cemeteries.
We buy many of the flowers we sell direct from domestic and international flower farms. Buying direct offers lots of great advantages. When you buy direct, it lowers our overall cost to purchase the flowers. That allows us to pass along those savings to our customers. It also reduces the time between when the flowers are cut at the farm, and when they are shipped to our flower shop for use. Reducing that time frame means the flowers arrive in Denver, fresher than those we might have to buy from a wholesaler.
Local Same Day & Express Delivery
Veldkamp’s Flowers offers local same-day and express flower delivery service. Our local delivery area is the largest among the flower shops operating in the market. Every single floral bouquet our artisans create is backed by our on-time delivery guarantee. We also provide a 100% customer satisfaction guarantee with each flower arrangement as well. If for any reason you don’t absolutely love the fresh flower bouquet we create and deliver for you, just contact our floral design center. We will design and deliver another bouquet, of equal or greater value, absolutely free of charge.
Nationwide Same Day Flower Delivery
If you need to send flowers to someone who resides outside of our local delivery area, we encourage you to opt for our nationwide same day delivery service option. We have developed a hand selected network of floral design partners around the country. Our staff works directly with these vendor partners to accomplish same day deliveries across the United States. Every arrangement, whether scheduled for local or nationwide delivery, is guaranteed for on-time arrival. Each design is also backed by our 100% customer satisfaction guarantee.

5 Reasons to Love Sunflowers
Veldkamp's Flowers and Gifts Denver's Favorite Flower Shop Veldkamp's Flowers is a family-owned and operated flower shop that has delivered unique, value-driven gifts and floral designs since 1959. For 70 years, we have helped customers throughout Denver with gift-giving, decor, events, and weddings. We pride ourselves in offering the freshest flowers, most unique floral designs, locally crafted and nationally branded gifts, and exceptional value and variety. No matter what the season, we all have our favorite flowers. For our customers and many of us here at Veldkamp's it's the sunflower. As part of our fall flower collection, we put together a brief list of reasons why we love the sunflower so much. 1. They are brightly colored, adding cheer. The color yellow is known to be a positive color for its bright hue, giving off optimism, confidence, and happy thoughts. Having sunflowers around helps improve your mood. It's hard not to smile when you see one or a bunch of sunflowers. 2. They point upwards to the sun. These tall flowers lean toward the direction of the sun and even look a bit like the sun with their round shape and yellow petals. With fall often bringing cloudy days and darkness earlier, it's nice to have sunflowers to light up the room. 3. Sunflowers grow at their own pace. Sunflowers teach us a lot like to do things our way. This flower doesn't look to grow as fast as others in nature. Instead, it does what it wants, growing toward the sun on its own terms. 4. They nourish others. Just because they do their own thing doesn't mean sunflowers don't do things for others. The sunflower nourishes insects and bees. Plus, these flowers give us sunflower seeds, which many find pretty tasty. 5. Sunflowers can grow in just about any conditions. Sunflowers are hardy flowers that can withstand even the hottest summers and manage to survive on very little water. Of course, they are also happy in more moderate conditions with plenty of water nearby. We have a wide selection of sunflowers that you can buy individually or as part of a bouquet, arrangement, or centerpiece. You can even work with our floral design team on a custom sunflower arrangement as a special gift, decor item, or event focal point.
