FAQ

What are box flowers, and how do they differ from traditional bouquets?

Box flowers are floral arrangements that are artfully arranged and presented inside a specially designed box rather than a traditional vase or wrapped in paper. This type of presentation not only adds a touch of elegance but also ensures the flowers' freshness and safety during transportation. The boxes are carefully selected to complement the flowers and can come in various styles, sizes, and materials. They may include a water source for the stems, allowing the flowers to stay hydrated for a more extended period. Box flowers offer a unique and modern twist to traditional floral gifting, creating an unforgettable impression. Whether it's a luxurious velvet box for a romantic occasion or a rustic wooden box for a more natural touch, box flowers provide a unique aesthetic that appeals to those looking for something out of the ordinary.

How do I care for box flowers once they've been delivered?

Caring for box flowers is relatively straightforward, but there are some specific steps to follow to ensure their longevity. Since the flowers are arranged in a box, they might come with a hidden water source, such as floral foam soaked in water. In that case, make sure to check and refill the water every few days. Avoid over-watering, as this might cause the box to become soggy. If the box flowers are designed to stay in their original packaging, keep them away from direct sunlight and heating sources to prevent them from drying out. Regularly remove any wilted or dead flowers to encourage the remaining blooms to thrive. Additionally, it might be beneficial to consult any care instructions that come with the delivery, as different flowers and arrangement styles may have unique care requirements.

Can I customize the box and flowers for special occasions?

Yes, many florists offer the option to customize both the box and the flowers for special occasions. Depending on the service, you may choose the type, color, and style of the box, along with the specific flowers and arrangement you desire. Customizing the box flowers allows you to create a truly personalized gift that reflects the recipient's tastes and the significance of the occasion.

Are box flowers suitable for all types of flowers?

Box flowers can be suitable for most types of flowers, but certain blooms may be more appropriate for this style of presentation. Delicate flowers that need extra support and protection can benefit from being in a box. However, it's always good to consult with the florist, as they will have expert knowledge on the best flowers to include in a boxed arrangement.

Can box flowers be delivered internationally?

Many florists offer international delivery for box flowers, but it may depend on the destination and specific delivery requirements. It's advisable to check with the florist regarding international shipping options, costs, and any potential restrictions or regulations that may apply to sending flowers to another country.
