We Are Adding a Gallery to Our Website

We are adding a gallery to our website of cusom arrangements we have done for events, special requests and wedding floral arrangements as well. We have several to start but we hope to have more on there soon so that we can showcase our creative talents and give you some ideas for your own personal arrangements. Here is a sample of what will be on the site.














Don't forget! Valentine's Day is almost here. We have a special offer until Thursday 2/11. Order by then and receive a free box of chocolates. Minimum order of $50. We have the traditional red roses available and many more creative and festive arrangements to choose from. You can find all of our Valentine's Day flowers here. If you plan on coming into the store, we also have tons of cute and cuddly stuffed animals of all sorts.

Virtua Health and Wellness Grand Opening Event - vir tu Spa


The new Virtua Health and Wellness Center in Washington Twp. held it's grand opening a couple of weeks ago and Abbott Florist was the lucky florist chosen to adorn the new spa in the center vir tu with gorgeous arrangements.

Only the best for this grand event would do. Gorgeous orchids, tall bamboo, birds of paradise added a tropical, yet sophisticated feel. Needless to say, our clients were happy and we think it came out fantastic as well.

We are adding a gallery soon to our website to highlight some of our custom arrangements, wedding flowers and event arrangements. Check on our website for our new Uniquely Abbott Florist section coming soon!

Valentine's Day is Coming...


It's that time of the year again! Time to make sure you order those flowers for your significant other. But this year is a little different, since Valentine's day falls on a Sunday you may be more likely to forget. Don't worry, it's completely common and no one will fault you if you do. We have a plan though to help you remember to order early. Order early, by Thursday 2/11 and receive a free box on chocolates-a $14.95 value, free just for ordering early. (Minimum $50 purchase). If ordering online use promo code freebox. You can also call your order into Abbott Florist at 856-728-3939 and mention the code as well. Order early and have them delivered to the office on Friday or order and have them delivered on Saturday and Sunday, either way don't forget to order early! Ok, we think you have the point! Looking out for your best interests, we promise : )


If you are looking for the traditional roses in a non-traditional arrangement take a look at these. This is the Abbott Florist XOXO Deluxe bouquet. Ten red roses – accented with million star gypsophila and fern – are arranged in a vase with a decorative red satin ribbon. Sure to impress and warm the heart. We also have a less expensive version available in red carnations as the XOXO Bouquet.
We also have you covered with all of your Valentine's Day needs-greeting cards, mylar balloons, cute and cuddly stuffed animals and more.
