• New baby and housewarming gifts
• Weddings and event floral orders

Ordering and Timing Guidance

To help your delivery arrive when you need it, keep these timing tips in mind:

• Same-day delivery: Many local florists offer same-day service for orders placed by the florist’s daily cutoff time, often early to mid-afternoon. Place orders as early as possible to improve availability.
• Next-day delivery: If same-day isn’t available, next-day is commonly offered and is a reliable option for most addresses in Kent.
• Scheduled deliveries: For events or funeral services, choose a scheduled date. For funerals, plan deliveries at least a day before or the morning of the service depending on the venue’s arrival policies.
• Weekend and holiday delivery: Availability may be limited on major holidays or Sundays. Weekend delivery windows sometimes fill faster, so order earlier in the week when possible.
• Delivery windows: Typical windows are morning, midday, and afternoon, but exact times vary by florist and route. If timing is critical, note that many services offer an AM or PM preference but cannot always guarantee a narrow hour.

What to Include with Your Order

Provide a clear delivery address, recipient name, and any entry instructions (building code, unit number, or preferred entrance). If delivering to a workplace, hospital, or event venue, add the recipient’s department or the event contact to avoid delays. For sympathy orders, indicate whether the arrangement is for a viewing, graveside service, or memorial reception.

Flower Care Tips

After delivery, following simple care steps can extend the life of cut flowers:

• Unwrap arrangements gently and place them in a clean vase with fresh, lukewarm water.
• Trim 1/2 to 1 inch from each stem at a 45-degree angle before placing in water to improve uptake.
• Remove foliage that will sit below the waterline to reduce bacterial growth.
• Change the water every 2–3 days, re-trim stems, and add flower food if provided.
• Keep arrangements in a cool spot away from direct sun, heat sources, and ripening fruit, which emits ethylene and shortens vase life.

Special Delivery Considerations

If the recipient is in an apartment complex, has limited mobility, or is in a secured building, include delivery instructions at checkout. For deliveries to healthcare facilities or funeral homes, confirm acceptance policies with the facility in advance; some venues have restrictions on types of floral deliveries and delivery times.

If you have questions about same-day availability, delivery windows, or special requests (like large event installs or sympathy pieces), contact customer support before placing large or time-sensitive orders. Clear instructions and early ordering are the best ways to ensure a smooth delivery in Kent, Washington.
