Hospital Deliveries

Unfortunately, the majority of hospitals do not accept delivery of flowers, or require very specific delivery instructions. We would always advise waiting to send flowers until the recipient has returned home to enjoy during their recovery, or checking with the hospital before placing an order, as we cannot deliver to hospitals that do not accept flowers.

All products are subject to availability. In the event of any supply difficulties, we reserve the right to substitute with a product of equivalent value and quality without notice. Certain flower and plant products may be delivered in bud to ensure longer life. Product Substitution Occasionally a particular flower variety may be unavailable.
