Thank you – from the gordon family
Our History
What started out as one greenhouse and a one-room flower shop with a small selection of plants and flowers, has become much more in nearly 100 years.
The Gordon family started the business back in 1922 as Samuel C. Gordon and Sons, when they built a glass greenhouse on their property in Ipswich, Massachusetts. They began by growing different varieties of cut flowers, carried a very small selection of house plants, and grew poinsettias, pansies, and geraniums in the greenhouse. Now, as Gordon Florist and Greenhouses, we use the very same glass greenhouse built in 1922 to grow our own mums, poinsettias, pansies, geraniums, and perennials.
Through lessons and experiences passed down 5 generations, we are now a full-service greenhouse and floral shop. We continue to expand and grow with each new Gordon generation as we operate out of 5 glass greenhouses offering extensive selections of cut flowers, house plants, and annuals and perennials.

“I love Gordon’s! They made my wedding absolutely the wedding of my dreams from the bouquet to the centerpieces and every detail in between. They were so friendly and easy to work with and people still rave (2 years later) about how amazing all the flowers were.”

Substitution Policy
Occasionally, substitutions may be necessary to create your floral arrangement or design due to the availability of certain flowers. Care is taken to maintain the style, theme and color scheme of the arrangement, using flowers of equal value. Additionally, the substitution of certain keepsake items may be necessary due to increased demand, especially during major holidays. In single-flower arrangements, such as an all rose bouquet, or orchids, we will make every attempt to match the flower type, but may substitute with another color if necessary.
Wire-Out Order
As part of a large network of florists across the country, we can make it easy for you to send flowers to loved ones who are not local. Occasionally, substitutions may be necessary to create your floral arrangement or design due to the availability of certain flowers in various parts of the country. We communicate closely with the other florist to ensure your requests are met to the best ability. Due to high demand during major holidays, some florists will remove themselves from the network to prioritize their local client’s orders, so we ask you contact us in advance. If this is the case, we can provide contact information for a florist in the area you can contact directly. Wire-out orders can be made in-person at our shop or over the phone.
*There will be a transmission charge of $7.50 for domestic orders and $15.00 for international orders. Most Florists will require a minimum for orders.
