Shipping windows listed above are the projected timeframes orders will leave our facility based on product availability, weather, and other factors. To protect and maintain the quality of your items, we may alter the above ship dates to provide the best product quality upon arrival. Once your order has shipped, you will receive an email with a shipment tracking number for your order. To ensure you receive the best quality roses and plants, we cannot hold orders or delay delivery once the order is prepared for shipment.
