Are your milk chocolates suitable for vegetarians, celiacs and people with nut allergies? - Our milk chocolates are suitable for vegetarians and are gluten-free. They do not contain nuts, but are produced in a factory which handles nut products. They contain milk and soya.

Why do some flowers arrive still in bud? - This is mainly to protect the flowers from being damaged whilst in transit. Certain flowers (such as Carnations, Lilies and Tulips) are sent directly from our growers still in their bud stage, and to prevent any further damage to the flowers whilst in transit we try to keep them in the same stage as when they arrived until they reach your recipient. This is also beneficial for the recipient as it means that they will be receiving the freshest flowers possible and will be able to enjoy them for much longer.

How are the flowers protected whilst in transit? - All of our arrangements are sent in specially designed boxes, with a range of sizes to fit each bouquet. These boxes ensure that the flowers are as snug as possible whilst out for delivery - the way the boxes are designed means that the flowers won't be able to move around whilst in transit, which can cause damage.

Why are certain bouquets not arranged when they are received? - Some of our smaller boxes are designed for the flowers to be packaged in a way that completely protects them, but means they are more likely to incur damage if arranged. With bouquets delivered in these boxes we find that the flowers are safer if we do not professionally arrange them before we pack them. We shoot our bouquets in full bloom to show how lovely they will look when they are fully open and arranged in a vase.

I have a foreign card, can I still order? - Yes, you can order online with most credit/debit cards from around the world. All payments will be in UK pounds sterling and converted to your own currency at a rate set by the bank that issued your card.

Is the payment secure? - Yes, we use Sagepay, part of the Bank of Scotland group. Sagepay are one of the world's leading online payment service providers. All payments are encrypted to the maximum strength supported by the users browser using 128bit SSL. For more information, please visit the Sagepay website at www.sagepay.com.
