If you chose to pay via EFT, please make payment into our account as soon as possible and send us confirmation of payment.

 

Can I order by telephone or email?

 

Yes you can. Please call us on 0861 977 468 or +27 31 201 6153 (International). If you are calling from outside South Africa, please dial +27 31 201 6153.

Alternatively you can send us your order via email at [email protected]. We do not recommend that you include credit card details in your email, as emails are not encrypted and can be intercepted by a third party.

 

Can I send flowers to someone in South Africa from outside South Africa?

 

Yes, as long as you have a credit or debit card. We accept VISA , MasterCard, Diners Club and Discover cards. We don’t accept EFT or Direct Deposits from overseas.

 

Can I order Flowers and gifts / hampers together?

 

Yes you can, however the flowers and gifts / hampers will be delivered separately, and possibly even on different days, as our gifts and hampers are shipped by courier, whereas our floral products are locally made and delivered.

 

I am interested in one of your products, but would like to change it slightly. Is this possible?

 

Yes, for fresh flowers, it is possible. During the check-out process, please make a note of your request in the “Special Instructions” field and we will do our best to meet your requirements. However, please note that we cannot guarantee that these changes can be made as they will depend on florist stock availability and cost. Our hampers and gifts are specially designed and therefore we will not be able to make any changes to these. The exception to this is our Custom Hamper, Gourmet Hamper and Fruit Basket, which are made by our local florists.

 

Can I include a personal message with my order?

 

Yes, you can. During the checkout process there will be an opportunity for you to include your personal message for the card.

 

Can I place a custom order for flowers or create my own hamper?

 

Yes you can. You can create your own flower arrangement using our unique custom flower application and your own hamper with our custom hamper application, or phone us or email us with your request and we will do our best to accommodate you.

 

I think my order was submitted more than once, what should I do?

 

Don’t worry, we can fix this. Please contact us and we will help you resolve the problem. Rest assured, we won’t charge you twice for the same order, and if you’ve already paid for a duplicate order, we’ll refund you the second order.

 

I did not receive my order confirmation email, what should I do?

 

We automatically send out an order confirmation email when we receive a successful order. However, if you do not receive this email it could be for one of three reasons:

  1. You have entered your email address incorrectly
  2. Your mail service provider mistook the confirmation email for spam and blocked it. BTW: Don’t forget to check your junk email folder.
  3. Your order was not processed successfully.

If you would like to double check that we have received your order successfully, please Contact Us.

 

I have received some flowers but the card is not signed. How do I find out who sent them to me?

 

We are sorry, but for privacy reasons, we are sworn to secrecy and are unable to disclose sender information, especially if they choose to remain anonymous during the check-out process.

 

I am battling to place an order online, what can I do?

 

Contact us via telephone or email and we will gladly assist you.

 

I have just placed my order and realised I made a mistake. What can I do?

 

Please reply to the order confirmation email you received and advise us of the necessary changes, alternatively give us a call.

 

I have entered my credit card details but I am receiving an error message. What should I do?
