Frequently Asked Questions

Same-day delivery depends on the day, the route and what is in the cooler. Our hours are Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm and Saturday 9am to 1pm, and the earlier in that window you call, the better your odds. Call (619) 595-0607 and we will tell you straight away whether today is possible.

Yes. Pickup at 2924 National Ave, San Diego, CA 92113 is welcome and it is the fastest option. Tell us roughly when you are coming and we will have it ready and wrapped. Walk-ins are welcome too, though calling ahead means we can have exactly what you want waiting for you.

Yes, and we do it constantly. What helps is detail: the facility name, the room number, ward or service time, the recipient's full name, and a phone number for someone on site. Hospitals and venues have their own delivery rules, and that information is what gets your flowers into the right hands.

Give us delivery instructions when you order, such as a safe shaded spot, a neighbor, or a front office. If we arrive with no instructions and no answer, we will call you before leaving anything, because flowers left in San Diego sun for hours are not the gift you paid for.

We are closed on Sundays. Around major flower holidays such as Valentine's Day and Mother's Day we regularly extend our hours, sometimes well into the evening. Call (619) 595-0607 ahead of the holiday to confirm that week's schedule and to get your order on the books early.

For an everyday arrangement, a day or two is plenty. For Valentine's Day, Mother's Day and graduation season, order a week or more ahead. Those weeks sell out, and ordering early is the difference between the arrangement you pictured and whatever is still available on the morning of.

The casket spray is traditionally sent by the immediate family, so it is usually arranged by a spouse, children or parents. Extended family, friends, coworkers and neighbors normally send standing sprays, wreaths, crosses or arrangements. If you are unsure which role is yours, call (619) 595-0607 and we will help you choose.

Flowers for the service need to arrive before it begins, so timing matters and we need the funeral home name and service time. Flowers sent to the home are often more meaningful in the quiet weeks after, when the visitors have gone. Many families appreciate one of each, sent at different times.

Short and sincere beats long and polished. Naming the person who died, and one specific thing you remember about them, is worth more than a paragraph of formal condolence. Tell us roughly what you want to say when you order and we will help you word it and write it out for you.

Yes, and this is work we care about. We design rosary pieces, crosses, sacred heart tributes, marigold arrangements for Dia de los Muertos, and pieces built around the colors of a home country or a favorite dress. As a family-owned Latino shop in National City, these traditions are ours too.

Bright and personal beats formal. Gerbera daisies, sunflowers, mixed seasonal bouquets and colorful roses all read as celebratory. If you know a favorite color or flower, tell us and we will build around it. If you do not, tell us about the person and we will design something that fits them.

For an apology, keep it sincere rather than extravagant. A thoughtful mixed bouquet with a handwritten card lands better than the biggest arrangement in the shop. For no reason at all, a simple seasonal bunch on an ordinary Tuesday is one of the most effective gifts there is. Our guide to choosing flowers for any occasion goes deeper.

Most fresh arrangements hold well for around a week with a little care. Change the water every two days, trim the stems at an angle each time, keep the vase out of direct sunlight and away from ripening fruit, and pull any spent blooms. Those four habits make more difference than any additive.

They are an excellent choice when you want the gift to last months rather than a week, which makes them well suited to housewarmings, offices and thank-yous. Availability varies by season, so call (619) 595-0607 to ask what we have in. We wrote about the timing here: when to give orchids.

We frequently carry add-ons, especially around Valentine's Day, Mother's Day and graduation season, when balloons and plush move quickly. Stock changes through the year, so ask when you call (619) 595-0607 and we will tell you what is on the shelf that week rather than promising something we do not have.

Walk-ins are welcome any time we are open, and there is usually something ready to take with you. Appointments matter for two things: wedding and quinceanera consultations, where we need uninterrupted time with you, and large event orders. For those, call (619) 595-0607 to book a slot.

More than twenty years. We are a family-owned, Latino-owned flower shop, and the people who answer the phone are the same people who design your arrangement.
