general FAQs
2. Are fresh flowers available in all gift box orders? Daily Fresh flowers are options in almost all hand delivered gift box purchases. Any shipped orders will include seasonal bunch of dried flower(s).
3. How will the flowers survive? Our gift box flower arrangements arrive in a small vase with water. Our daily flower bouquets are are wrapped in eco-friendly hydration wraps (vases can be purchased as add ons). All of our flowers come with flower care instructions but upon arrival, we recommend: 1) checking the water level immediately and adding cool water if needed; 2) displaying the bouquet in a cool location out of direct sunlight and avoiding excessively hot or cold areas such as ac and heating units; 3) and removing flowers from the arrangement as they die to prolong the life of the remaining flowers.
4. Can I pick my flowers? Unfortunately, flowers cannot be picked - the flowers of the day are seasonal and are dependent on the flowers available at market that week and day.
5. What are House of Lilac fresh flower bouquets? Our fresh flowers bouquets are a high quality selection of florals conditioned, cleaned, styled and wrapped in kraft paper. Please note, these are not floral arrangements; they are cut floral stems and greens, hand picked fresh from the floral market, styled, and bundled in house. They are meant to be arranged by the recipient upon receipt to their taste and liking. They are hydrated during transit. Vases can be purchased separately as an add on.
We highly advise that the recipient unwrap the bundle immediately upon receipt, fill a vase about halfway with fresh water, and arrange the florals to their liking.
*Please note that we will not be held responsible for the condition of bouquets once the florals and their quality are confirmed and signed for by the person receiving the bouquet.

13. What happens if the recipient or anyone is not available to receive the flowers personally? If the recipient or anyone is not available to receive the flowers, we will contact the recipient, and if they don't respond, they will be left at their front door (where flowers are involved weather plays a big role in our leaving the florals). If the weather is not cool enough for the flowers, the flowers can be redelivered the next business day but the gift giver will be responsible for an additional delivery fee. House of Lilac will not be held responsible or liable for any stolen or damaged gifts subsequent to the delivery
14. What is the delivery process? We deliver orders between 1-6pm. WE TYPICALLY REQUIRE SIGNATURE UPON DELIVERY, but during COVID things have changed. We will knock to notify the recipient of our arrival and if they don't open, we will first call them (if we don't get in touch with them, we will call you, the sender) and then leave the flowers or gift right at their front door, in the safest spot we can find (under roof, of course). If you already know they WON'T BE HOME and you would like us to leave the flowers or gift out front, please let us know so we can notify our drivers in advance. *Note: we can't guarantee flower freshness or safety if left outside for too long so if someone will be home, that would be the best case scenario!
CONDOS, APARTMENTS, OR GATED COMMUNITY DELIVERIES: Those delivering to condos or apartments - please make sure you included any pertinent gate codes or instructions. If there is a front desk doorman, we will leave the flowers or gifts with them and will require signature; however, please know that in our experience, some doormen will keep flowers overnight or for extended periods of time, especially during COVID times. We would suggest checking in with their front desk on the day of delivery.
HOSPITAL DELIVERIES: Currently, we DO NOT recommend delivering to hospitals due to stringent COVID hospital policies. If you placed a hospital delivery order, you can email us here to arrange a different delivery address or call us at the shop 305.392.1297. Nevertheless, we will be contacting you to resolve this issue shortly.

We always have orders ready by the pickup date you chose. If you didn't choose a pickup date, call us to arrange one 305.392.1297 or don't fret - we'll be sending you a text once everything is done (typically 1-2 business days).
