Flowers for the young family
A birth changes everything. With flowers, you congratulate not only the baby, but the whole family: the mother, who has achieved something remarkable, the father or partner, and the proud siblings. A bouquet is a joy during the first, often hectic days, and requires no care other than fresh water.
Which flowers suit a birth?
Pink for a girl and light blue for a boy are the classics. Today, anything is welcome: many choose fresh colours such as yellow and white, soft pastel tones, or simply the mother's favourite colour. Popular choices are:
It is best not to send strongly scented flowers such as lilies to hospital. Our bouquets are Mono-Bouquets: a single variety of flower in one colour, without filler greenery. This way each flower appears in its natural beauty, and the bouquet stays fresh for longer.
To the hospital or to the home?
A hospital stay after a birth often lasts only a few days. For the hospital, the mother's name and the hospital are sufficient. If she has already been discharged, our courier takes the flowers back with them, and we deliver a second time to the home free of charge, as long as the flowers are still fresh. More on this: Sending flowers to hospital. If you wish to be certain, send the flowers to the home in the first week. For a greeting that leaves the choice open, there are gift cards from CHF 50, redeemable for flowers, subscriptions and vases.
How the flowers arrive
You choose the delivery day yourself, days or weeks in advance. From the Express selection we deliver the next day if you order by midnight; all other flowers from the day after tomorrow. Delivery takes place from Monday to Saturday.
In the region from Basel to Winterthur and Lucerne, and all the places in between our own couriers hand over the flowers personally, in gift packaging with a ribbon. To the rest of Switzerland, partners deliver in a flower box with a water supply. Delivery costs a flat rate of CHF 5, and is free from two bouquets. After the handover, you will receive a photo of the delivered flowers.
