Use The Flowers Directory with Claude and Other AI Assistants
Last updated: October 19, 2026
Quick answer: The Flowers Directory connector lets an AI assistant such as Claude search our arrangements, check florist delivery to a US ZIP code, explain what to send to a funeral home or hospital, and hand you a checkout link with the exact total. It needs no account or sign-in. The connector never places an order or takes payment: you review everything and pay on theflowersdirectory.com. Server address: https://www.theflowersdirectory.com/mcp
How to connect The Flowers Directory to an AI assistant, what it can do, and what data it handles.
How to connect
- Claude: add The Flowers Directory from Claude's connector directory. Until the listing appears, add it as a custom connector with the server address above; Anthropic explains how in Add a connector that isn't in the directory.
-
Other assistants and developer tools: any client that supports remote MCP servers over Streamable HTTP can connect to
https://www.theflowersdirectory.com/mcp. Choose no authentication.
What you can ask
- "Send sympathy flowers under $150 to the Smith Funeral Home in Worcester, MA for Saturday's service."
- "Can flowers still arrive today in 90210?"
- "My mom is in the hospital after surgery. What should I send, and what isn't allowed?"
- "Show me red roses for our anniversary and give me a link with the card message filled in."
- "Has my order arrived? Here is the order number from my confirmation email."
What the connector does
| Search arrangements | Finds arrangements and plants by occasion, color, flower type, budget or keywords, with photos and the price including the $19.99 delivery fee. |
| Arrangement details | All photos, size when published, the full description and the substitution policy for one arrangement. |
| Delivery dates | Checks a ZIP code for a specific date, or lists the next available dates and whether same-day delivery is still possible before the 1:00 PM cutoff in the recipient's time zone. |
| Checkout link | Returns a purchase link with the exact delivery fee, tax and total for the recipient's ZIP. |
| Prefilled checkout | If you give the assistant the recipient's name, venue, room, card message or instructions, it can save them for 24 hours and return a link that opens checkout with those details filled in. Your assistant may ask before doing this, because it stores details on our site. |
| Order status | Looks up an order you placed, using the order number and the email address you used at checkout, and shows the scheduled delivery date. It does not offer live courier tracking. |
| Venue guidance | What to send to a funeral home, hospital, place of worship, office, home or senior living facility, what the florist needs to know, and local funeral home and hospital listings from our directory. |
| Local florists | Lists florists in a city from our directory pages. Orders placed with us are made and delivered by a florist in our fulfillment partner Florist One's network, which may or may not be one of the listed shops. |

Privacy and data handling
The connector receives only what the assistant sends to it, which is the information needed for each request. It does not receive your conversation, and it does not set cookies.
- Usage logging: for each request we log the tool used, the product code and the ZIP code, with a pseudonymous hash of the requesting IP address and the name of the assistant, to measure how the connector is used. We do not log names, card messages, order numbers or email addresses.
- Prefilled checkout details: when an assistant creates a prefilled checkout, we store the recipient name, venue, room, card message, instructions, ZIP and date for 24 hours so the checkout page can fill in the form. After 24 hours the link stops working and the details are deleted within the hour; our database provider's backups can retain deleted data for up to 30 days. The link contains a random code, not the details themselves.
- Order lookups: the order number and email address are used only to find and verify your order with our fulfillment partner. They are not stored or logged by the connector, and the reply leaves out street addresses, names and card messages.
- Service providers: delivery availability, pricing and order lookups go to Florist One, our fulfillment partner. The connector runs on Cloudflare. We do not sell this data or use it for advertising.
