FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How does it work?

Subscriptions are sold in 5- or 8-week time frames. Choose your duration, fill out the online form, and pay ahead of time by check, PayPal, or Venmo. You will receive text or email reminders each week on flower pickup day.

 

Where do I pick up my flowers?

There are generally 2 pickup locations to choose from:

1) At our house in Greenfield in a shady nook across the driveway from the flower stand. Pickup days are usually Tuesdays from 3:30- dusk, but may be staggered depending on the number of subscribers.

 

2.) At the home of another subscription member who lives near downtown Saratoga. I’ll provide details before the season begins.

 

Can I get my flowers delivered?
Delivery is available within 15 miles of Daniels Road on a limited, first-come, first-served basis. If you're interested in delivery, let me know and I'll be in touch to confirm whether delivery is still available. Also - flowers don't thrive in the heat, so you'll need a shady spot that's out of the weather where I can leave your bouquets. Delivery will incur an extra $5 per week. (5 weeks = $135 / 8 weeks =$216)

Did prices go up?
Yes. To account for the cost of supplies going up, I've had to raise prices a little bit for the 2023 growing season. It seems like post-Covid prices are here to stay.


What if I go on vacation?

If you go on vacation, you can gift your weekly flowers to a friend or make up the week you lost when you return. If you decide to gift your flowers, your friend picks up your arrangement in your absence.

 

If you want to pick up when you return, let me know before you leave and I’ll add a bouquet to the end of your pickup schedule. There's a sign-up sheet for you to mark each week, so it's easy to keep track.

 

What if I forget to pick up my flowers?

I send reminder texts and emails each morning on pick-up day. If you forget and let me know, you can pick up your bouquet at the Daniels Road site within 24 hours. If you forget altogether, I will donate your arrangement to our local hospice program.

 

What types of flowers can I expect?

Color combinations and flowers varieties change throughout the season. Plan to receive a large, lush arrangement with a changing cast of characters all summer. Examples of what blooms when are below:

 

June – July: Sweet peas, hydrangeas, peonies, globe thistles, rudbeckia, and yarrow

August – September: Celosia, dahlias, snapdragons, cosmos, verbena, and zinnias

September – October: Amaranth, dahlias, cosmos, snapdragons, zinnias, and herbs

October – November: Dahlias, snapdragons, heirloom mums, perennial grasses, zinnias, and seed pods

 

How will I know when my subscription starts?

I'll send an email to let you know when it's time to start picking up your flowers. Weather and other unknowns may create hiccups along the way, but we work through them as they come up. Be sure to reach out with any questions along the way.

 

Can I extend my subscription if I want to continue receiving bouquets?

Of course! Unless I'm maxed out with subscribers or special events, I'd be happy to extend your subscription. Send me a note and we'll make it happen.

 

How can I make my flowers last?

Here are some easy steps to take to keep your flowers blooming as long as possible:
 

1. Recut the stems when you get your flowers home and place them in a clean vase with cool water. Try to  avoid exposing the stems to the air for very long.

2. Display your flowers away from sunlight, fruit, and your countertop compost container. Fruit and compost produce ethylene gas, which will reduce your flowers' vase life. 

3. Change the water and recut the stems every couple days to reduce bacteria growth and allow the flowers to absorb as much water as possible. 

4. During warm weather, place your flowers outside or in the fridge overnight.
