Care and Materials

We try our absolute best to keep our cooler stocked with the florals shown on our site. We are also very picky about using the freshest flowers available. There may be times when we'll have to substitute the varieties in your bouquet. Our first priority is to fill your order to the full value (or more!). Variety type is given second priority (for example, we'll sub a pink rose for a yellow). Our third consideration is color - if you're ordering a "baby boy" arrangement we'll sub flowers that keep the style of the bouquet. If you have special request, please reach out prior to placing the order to check availability!

Proper care of your fresh flowers can make a big difference in how long your bouquet lasts! We often have customers get 1-2 weeks of enjoyment out of their flowers because they do 3 simple things:

1 - Water. Make sure your vessel has water in it! We recommend a daily top-off, plus completely changing out the water for fresh every 3 days.

2 - Stem treatment. If any foliage or blooms have fallen into the water, clean it out. Give your stems a fresh cut on day 4 (just the bottom inch is fine) and day 8.

3 - Environment. We love to curl up in a warm sunny spot, but your flowers don't. Keep them away from heat sources, diffusers/candles and any curious pets.

Your flowers are hand-designed right here in Algona, Iowa. We work hard to source the freshest product and have invested in the best training in flower care, handling and design. Our certified designers will custom-create your bouquet for your recipient with love.

We guarantee our flowers with a full exchange or refund up to 48 hours after delivery. Care and environment plays a huge role in flower longevity (see our care tips above!) so we cannot guarantee the life of your fresh cut flowers after that point. Partial exchanges will be handled on a case-by-case basis. We DO want you to be happy, so if you have any questions or concerns at any point.... even a week later.... please contact us!
