FAQs
How long will the flowers last?
The longevity of flowers depends on various factors, including the type of flowers, care, and environmental conditions. Generally, our fresh flowers are carefully selected for their quality and can last anywhere from 5 to 10 days.
Can I send flowers to a hospital? Are there any restrictions?
Sending flowers to a hospital is a wonderful gesture, but it's important to be mindful of certain guidelines:
- Low-Allergen and Low-Scent Flowers Recommended: To accommodate patients with sensitivities, we recommend choosing arrangements with low-allergen and low-scent flowers.
- Restrictions in Certain Units: Flowers are generally not allowed in Intensive Care Units (ICU) or Paediatric Intensive Care Units (PICU), due to infection control measures. Please check with the hospital or the recipient's unit for any specific restrictions.
- Hospital Policies: Hospitals may have specific policies regarding flower deliveries, so it's advisable to confirm with the hospital before placing your order.
We want to ensure that your thoughtful gesture brings comfort without causing any inconvenience. If you have any concerns or specific requests, feel free to reach out to our customer service team for assistance at 03 93477889
How long do the balloons last?
A balloon's longevity can be influenced by factors such as temperature and handling. On average, our balloons will stay inflated for 1 to 2 weeks. For longer enjoyment, keep them in a warm, dry environment indoors away from drafts and breezes.
Should I add anything to the water with my flowers?
We recommend using the flower food provided with your order. Simply follow the instructions on the packet to mix it with water before placing your flowers in the vase. Flower food contains essential nutrients that help prolong the life of your flowers and keep them looking fresh.
Do different flowers have different meanings?
Yes, flowers often carry symbolic meanings. While these meanings can vary culturally, some general associations exist. Our floral experts carefully select blooms to convey messages of love, celebration, sympathy, and more. If you have specific preferences, feel free to communicate them, and we will create an arrangement that aligns with your sentiments.
How can I ensure the longevity of my flowers?
Flowers are sensitive to bacteria in the water, which can accelerate their wilting. To keep your flowers fresh:
- Change Water Regularly: Refresh the water in the vase every 2-3 days to prevent bacterial growth.
- Cut Stems: If possible, trim the stems at a diagonal angle every few days. This helps improve water absorption, ensuring your flowers stay hydrated.
- Remove Foliage: Submerged foliage can contribute to bacterial growth.
- Remove any leaves that fall below the waterline in your vase.
These simple steps will go a long way in preserving the beauty and freshness of your floral arrangement.
