On our website, you may only order one flower arrangement at a time. If you would like to order multiple products you can certainly do this over the phone and you will only be charged once, so please give us a call.
When will my flowers arrive?
As long as you place your order before 2pm, we guarantee same day delivery by 5pm to a business and by 6pm to a home address Monday to Saturday. Our website will tell you if we can still deliver same day, if you are unsure please don’t hesitate to call us.

What happens if no one is home when my flowers are delivered?
|
On our website, there is a box for you to enter instructions in case no one is at home at the time of delivery. You are able to let us know if it is ok to leave the delivery at the front or back door. If it is not safe to leave the delivery, our driver will leave a calling card asking the recipient to contact us to arrange a suitable re-delivery time and / or location. Additional charges may apply, but we will contact you if this is the case.

Flower Care |
How do I look after my flowers?
|
As you know, flowers are a perishable product so they need to be looked after carefully! Here at Meg’s Flowers, we are the experts on caring for flowers so you can call us any time if you have any questions. The first 24 hours are the most important! For bouquets, you will need to trim the stems approximately 2-3cm on an angle before placing them in water. For boxed arrangements, please ensure 1-2 cups of water are added to the arrangement every day. Make sure you keep the flowers in a cool place away from heaters, televisions, microwaves etc. Do not place your flowers near fruit as fruit releases a gas (ethylene) which causes flowers to age quicker, reducing their life span.
|
|
1. Fill your favourite vase with fresh cold water and the correct amount of flower food. |
|
2. Cut around 3cm off the bottom of the stems at an angle, ideally with a sharp knife. |
|
3. Remove any leaves that sit below the water level. |
|
4. Top up the water regularly, and enjoy your fresh cut flowers. |
Only the freshest flowers are used in our arrangements, which means that some buds may be closed on arrival especially in the colder seasons. This protects the flowers during transit and increases their longevity.

Security & PrivacyAre my details secure when ordering online?
