How Ordering Works

Ordering is straightforward: choose an arrangement or bouquet, select a delivery date (or same-day if available), add a gift message, and provide the recipient’s address and any special instructions. Many florists accept orders online or in person; payment is usually processed at the time of order and you’ll receive a confirmation. If you need a specific delivery window, contact the florist when placing the order to confirm availability.

Timing and Cutoffs

Same-day delivery is commonly offered for orders placed before the florist’s daily cutoff—often midday or early afternoon—but exact cutoffs vary by shop and by day (holidays may require earlier deadlines). If you need guaranteed delivery on a particular date, order at least 24–48 hours in advance when possible. For events such as weddings, large orders and installations should be scheduled weeks ahead.

What to Include with Your Order

• Recipient’s full name and accurate delivery address
• Best delivery times or any restricted access hours
• Gate or building access codes, if applicable
• Clear gift message and any special requests (color preferences, allergies to certain flowers)

Flower Care Tips

To help arrangements last longer, follow these simple steps:

• Trim stems at an angle about 1/2 inch every 2–3 days to improve water uptake.
• Change the vase water every 2–3 days and add fresh flower food if provided.
• Remove leaves that sit below the waterline to reduce bacteria growth.
• Keep flowers in a cool location away from direct sunlight, HVAC vents, and ripening fruit (which emits ethylene gas that speeds wilting).
• For potted plants, follow specific watering instructions and allow the topsoil to dry as recommended for the plant type.

Substitutions and Delivery Issues

Sometimes a chosen variety may be out of season or unavailable. Most florists will substitute with an item of equal or greater value and similar color/feel; you can request to be notified before substitutions are made. If a delivery is missed or delayed, contact the florist promptly to arrange redelivery or a refund according to the shop’s policy.

Whether you’re sending sympathy blooms, a celebratory bouquet, or a hospital get-well arrangement, planning ahead and providing clear delivery details will help ensure a smooth experience. Enjoy sending flowers—Towson florists are experienced at making an impact with thoughtful arrangements and reliable delivery.
