Ordering Advice:
While some florists will take an order to be delivered in the A.M. or P.M., it is usually impossible to have it delivered at a particular time of the day (i.e., 2:00 P.M.).  Because of traffic, pending funerals, weather and many other things, it very difficult to predict where the delivery van will be from one minute to the next.  If the delivery is for someone at a place of employment, give the florist the time the person will be there at work.
Place your flower order early, especially for holidays.  By placing the order a few days ahead of the delivery date, you give the florist the chance to order the product you want if they do not already have it.  Additionally, florists usually have a limit to the quantity of orders they can deliver for a particular holiday.  By placing your order early, you will make sure you are one of those able to get their orders filled.
