About Us

Milano's UpTowne Florist is Columbus' oldest florist, serving Central Ohio since 1935. Our story is a blend of two family legacies. Milano Florist was founded in 1935 on Morse Road to fill a need for quality flowers in Central Ohio. Uptown Flowers followed in 1961, serving the Worthington and Linworth areas for over 50 years. In 2020 and 2022, we acquired both businesses, honoring the original families while modernizing our operations for the future.

We're a family-owned business run by my wife and me. We've lived in Worthington for 18 years, raised our kids here, and watched them graduate from Worthington Kilbourne High School. Our shops have called Worthington and Powell home for decades. In January 2025, we sold our building in Powell and in March 2025, a fire near our longtime Worthington location forced us to relocate. We're now settled into our new home at 729 Mt. Airyshire Boulevard in Columbus. Click to read our full relocation story here.

Owners

We have three talented designers on staff, including one with over 40 years of experience who formerly ran floral departments for major hotels. Between them, our team brings decades of expertise in weddings, events, and everyday occasions. More than their skill, they're family. Our drivers, our staff, everyone who walks through our door is part of the Milano's team, and that family-oriented environment shapes how we work every single day.

• Freshness you can trust: We hand-select our flowers daily to ensure every arrangement looks its best and lasts longer.
• A personal touch: We listen to your story and craft a custom design for the person you're celebrating. If you want a design reimagined in different colors, we'll make it happen.
• Deep local expertise: We understand hospital delivery protocols, funeral home timing, and senior living communities because we've been doing this for 90 years.
• Rooted in community: We're your neighbors, not a national chain. We're proud to be part of the Central Ohio community we've served for generations.

We know flowers are key to celebrating special moments, so we extend our hours to serve you during our busiest times of the year.

• Mother's Day: We are open with extended hours on Mother's Day Sunday.
• Valentine's Day & Christmas: We offer extended hours during the busy week leading up to Valentine's Day and the Christmas holiday period.

Due to the high volume of orders during these times, we strongly recommend placing your order at least two days in advance to ensure the best selection and guaranteed delivery. While we do our best to accommodate last-minute requests, we cannot guarantee same-day delivery during these peak weeks.

Have you recently received a bouquet from us or worked with our team for a special occasion? We'd be so grateful if you could share your experience online. Your reviews and recommendations are the best compliment we can receive and help us continue to spread happiness, one arrangement at a time.

Whether you need flowers for a birthday, anniversary, sympathy, or just because, we're here to help. Order online or call us at (614) 889-1001. Visit us at 729 Mt. Airyshire Boulevard in Columbus.
