Ordering and Timing Guidance
To increase the chance of same-day delivery, place your order early in the day—many local florists set a same-day cutoff in the late morning or early afternoon. If you need delivery later in the day or at a specific time, choose the timed delivery option when available and include any important delivery instructions. Next-day delivery is commonly available for orders placed after the same-day cutoff or late in the evening. For funeral services, place orders at least 24 hours in advance when possible and indicate the service location and time so the florist can coordinate timely delivery.
Keep in mind that holidays and special events create higher demand, so ordering a few days earlier will help ensure availability and avoid substitution of requested blooms. If you have a strict flower preference, note it in the order; florists will confirm if a requested variety is out of season and suggest comparable alternatives.
Delivery Options and Special Requests
Most florists offer delivery to residences, workplaces, hospitals, and funeral homes. When placing the order, include gate codes, building names, apartment details, and specific delivery instructions. If you need contact-free delivery, indicate that preference and include a safe place to leave the arrangement. For event deliveries, request a delivery window and confirm whether set-up assistance is needed.
Flower Care Tips After Delivery
To help arrangements last longer after delivery, follow these simple care steps:
- Trim stems at a 45-degree angle about one inch from the bottom before placing flowers in water.
- Use clean vases and add the provided flower food to the water to feed blooms and slow bacterial growth.
- Change the water every two days and re-trim stems to keep water uptake steady.
- Keep arrangements out of direct sunlight, away from heating or cooling vents, and away from fruit which emits ethylene gas that can age flowers prematurely.
- Remove wilted blooms promptly to prevent bacteria from spreading to healthy stems.
Final Notes
