I was blown away the second I stepped into this orchid oasis in Culver City. Winding through hundreds of orchids each more beautiful then the next.... and I was amazed by the prices. It is the highest quality for the lowest price I have seen in LA. The staff is helpful and the orchids I bought have lasted five times as long as the ones I have picked up at TJ's or florist. This is my new favorite spot!

I had stopped in to look around and one of the staff members was very helpful and nice in showing me around, pointing out the different products they carry, explaining what they do (e.g. they mostly sell wholesale and can make arrangements but it's not core business, etc.). I went back a few weeks later and purchased supplies (orchids, planters/pots, moss, etc) to make several table centerpieces for an event - with the assistance of the woman who helped me during my first visit. The prices are comparable to the downtown L.A. Flower Mart but much more convenient and less chaotic. They only sell plants and no cut flowers but that can work to your advantage. I had several plant displays but I also had cut flower displays. I purchased one orchid plant with 4 giant spikes for $30 - compare that to the $25 per stem that the Flowers Wholesale shop on Santa Monica Blvd in West Hollywood charges. The prices will vary depending on the stage of the bloom. For example, I bought 3 of the same orchid plant on sale and the prices were something like $18, $20, $23. I know you can buy orchids just about everywhere now (e.g. Trader Joe's, etc) but if you want a wide selection in stock without having to pre-order and most importantly you need orchid-advice/expertise, this is the place to go!
I would give Orchid Fever 4-1/2 stars if I could. It was a really good experience but not a perfect one. For instance, the woman who helped me carry my many plants to the car was very rough with my plants. I was planning to use the orchids as displays and she was shoving them in my car and running the entire length of the blooms along the top edge of my car as she was putting them in, etc. It made me cringe and I tried to joke that luckily orchids are hardy plants!
Pros: Large instock selection of orchids and supplies, orchid expertise, excellent value

This is a wonderful orchid store. They have a terrific variety of orchids and pots to put them in and the staff are very helpful and knowledgeable. The prices are also reasonable. The koi and turtle pond at the front of the store under a vine covered rock wall is beautiful.

This is a very cute orchid store in Culver City. The sales lady was very helpful, although when I asked for a pot/vase she showed me a more expensive one rather than the regular terra cota ones first. Otherwise though, they have beautiful orchids, which I bought as a present, and was more reasonably priced than a similar one I saw at a nearby nursery.
Pros: Beautiful flowers and interior, plenty of street parking

Very conventiently located in Culver City this flower shop is one of my favorite. They are open everyday of the week and service is really top notch! They always give me great advice on arragements and which kind of bouquet to send. I especially love their roses because they have such a wide range of choices. The prices are reasonable. So this is a good place to buy mom's flowers or co-workers...

Who wouldn't love this Orchid Fever, a lovely flower shop who handles retail, decorative and special arrangelent bouquet of flowers and green plants all alike! I love the fact that they are open 7 days a week and they are never late on my orders. They are behind Sony where there are lots of retail shops and coffee shops as well as post office, banks, etc. so it's very convenient to run your errands together!
