About FTD.com
FTD (Florists' Transworld Delivery) is one of America's oldest and most recognized floral delivery services, founded in 1910 and known for the iconic Mercury Man logo. FTD connects customers with a network of local florist members who design and deliver arrangements, combining the reliability of a national brand with the craftsmanship of local florists.
FTD is particularly trusted for funeral and sympathy flowers where reliability and professionalism are critical, as their network of committed local florist members maintains quality standards across thousands of locations. Their Teleflora sister company offers similar services through comparable local florist networks.
FTD's pricing includes significant service fees and delivery charges that add 25–35% to the listed arrangement price. Comparing the full checkout total (arrangement + delivery + service fee) against 1-800-Flowers, Teleflora, and direct local florist ordering is essential to understand the true cost.
