Fresh Flowers Shipping Instructions

For the safe transportation of your bouquet, adhere to the following instructions:

1- Soak several paper towels in cool water.

2- Wrap the soaked paper towels around the stems of the bouquet.

3- Ensure adequate moisture for the flowers during shipment.

4- Wrap a plastic bag around the paper towels to retain moisture, taking care to avoid contact with the flower petals.

5- Do not encase the flowers in plastic, as this can cause wilting.

6- Secure the wrapping with a rubber band or florist tape.

7- Wrap the bouquet lightly in brown packing paper.

8- During summer, include ice packs in the shipping box to maintain a cool temperature.

9- Place the bouquet in the shipping box.

10- Add extra packing paper to prevent movement.

11- Choose a reputable shipping service.

12- Request for overnight shipping with tracking.

13- Notify us via email with the tracking information, including the expected delivery day and time.

Disclaimer...

As always, contact us with any questions: Lily Blossom will only ship back finished products. We do not ship back extra flowers or plastic containers. Just a reminder that regular orders can take up to 5 months to finish, but it will be well worth the wait! Table orders can take up to 6 months.

Tips...

Carefully cut the ends off the stems at an angle. Sometimes this can be difficult if the stems are bundled tightly together. No worries! Make small cuts up the sides of them vertically. The purpose of this is to let the bouquet get a drink of water easily like a straw.

Tips...

Place the bouquet in a vase of water and out of direct sunlight until time of packaging. DO NOT place the bouquet in the fridge or freezer. This will cause the flowers to mold during travel. Avoid touching the flower petals as much as possible because this will prevent bruising within the final product.

For an Air-Dried Bouquet

1-To ensure safe transportation, wrap the flowers or groups of the bouquet in tissue paper and place them in an airtight container. Utilize reputable brands such as Rubbermaid for sterility.

2- Tissue paper and packing paper are ideal materials for this purpose, as they are less likely to puncture the dried flowers.

3- Obtain a cardboard box that is sufficiently large to accommodate the container.

4- Employ multiple layers of packing paper at the bottom and surrounding the container for cushioning. Alternatively, consider using bubble wrap to prevent excessive shifting.

5- Affix 'fragile' stickers to the exterior of the box to guarantee careful handling during shipment. These stickers can be procured from Amazon or requested from the postal service.

6- Clearly label the outside of the box with 'DRIED' in all capital letters.

7- Please provide us with the tracking information via email, including the anticipated delivery date and time.
