Frequently Asked Questions for our Christchurch Florists

  • Do you offer same-day flower delivery in Christchurch?

    Yes, we certainly do. For same-day delivery across Christchurch and surrounding areas (including Rolleston, Lincoln, Rangiora, and Kaiapoi), please place your order before 2:00 pm on weekdays or by 10:30 am on Saturdays. If you miss these cut-off times, give us a call on 03 379 8255, and we will do our best to accommodate urgent requests where possible. Rural deliveries may require additional time.

  • Can I pick up my flowers instead of delivery?

    Absolutely. Select "Click & Collect" at checkout and visit us at our Victoria Street florist shop. There is plenty of parking nearby.

  • Do you deliver to Christchurch Hospital?

    Yes, we deliver flowers to Christchurch Hospital and other local medical centres daily. Please check the ward guidelines regarding fresh flowers before ordering.

  • Can I include a customised message?

    Of course. Every bouquet comes with a complimentary card for your personal message. We also offer specialty cards for birthdays, anniversaries, and sympathy.

  • What is the difference between a bouquet and a posy?

    A bouquet is our larger arrangement, typically starting at $85, featuring a generous selection of premium flowers perfect for making a statement. Bouquets are ideal for significant occasions like birthdays, anniversaries, or hospital visits. A posy is our compact arrangement starting at $65, beautifully designed in a smaller format that is perfect for brightening up a desk, bedside table, or as a thoughtful "just because" gesture. Both are handcrafted by our senior florists using fresh, seasonal blooms.

  • How long will my flowers last?

    With proper care, our fresh flower bouquets typically last up to 7 days. We provide care instructions with every order, including tips on trimming stems, changing water daily, and keeping flowers away from direct heat. Our orchid plants, like the popular Phalaenopsis varieties, can bloom for 2-3 months with minimal care. Many customers have reported their Court Florist bouquets lasting up to two weeks, as noted in our Google reviews—a testament to our commitment to sourcing the freshest Canterbury-grown flowers.

  • Can I request specific flowers or colours in my arrangement?

    Absolutely! While our website showcases our signature designs, we are happy to create bespoke floral arrangements tailored to your preferences. If you would like specific flowers (such as red roses or white lilies) or particular colours to match a theme, simply call us at 03 379 8255 or add a note at checkout. Our experienced florists will create a custom design within your chosen price range. For weddings and events, we offer full consultation services to bring your floral vision to life.

  • Do you cater for corporate orders and regular deliveries?

    Yes, we work with numerous Christchurch businesses for regular office flowers, corporate gifts, and event florals. Whether you need weekly fresh arrangements for your reception area, thank-you gifts for clients, or flowers for company milestones, we can set up an account with flexible payment terms. We have been trusted by local business customers since 1937 and understand the importance of reliable, professional service. Contact us directly to discuss your corporate requirements.

  • What happens if the recipient isn't home when you deliver?

    If no one is home, our delivery drivers will leave the flowers in a safe, sheltered spot (such as a porch or with a neighbour) and send you a notification. For apartment buildings, we will buzz other residents or leave the flowers with building management if possible. If you are concerned about security or weather conditions, you can add special delivery instructions at checkout or select "Recipient must be home" and we will contact them to arrange a convenient time. For hospital and workplace deliveries, we deliver directly to the reception desk.
