We currently accept Visa,
MasterCard, Discover, electronic check, and PayPal.
PayPal accepts all major credit cards,
including American Express, and even gives you a finance option!
With PayPal's "Bill Me Later" program, you get 6 months no interest before
having to make a payment! To take advantage of this program, simply
select PayPal as your check out option. The “Bill Me Later” program
is subject to credit approval and certain terms and conditions
apply. This is a great option for big floral holidays when
money may be a little tight! |

All flowers
are shipped via FedEx directly to your front door! We negotiated a
special relationship with FedEx to maintain your product’s “cold chain”
from the farm to you. With our service, your flowers will never sit
in a warehouse or airport uncooled waiting to be shipped. Your
flowers are cut from the ground the day they are shipped to
you. |

Your flowers
have had a long trip from their home in South America. They are
going to be thirsty as they are dry-packed for their trip to you. We
recommend you process your flowers immediately upon
arrival.
To Process
Your Flowers: Re-cut your stems to begin the rehydration
process, then hydrate and cool your flowers for a minimum of 24 hours
before selling them. This ensures maximum vase-life for your
flowers.
Remember, the dry-packing process
may make your roses soft to the touch. This is perfectly
normal. Your roses will “harden” upon hydration and cooling.
We also recommend a good holding solution such as Chrysal Pro 2. This will
optimize flower life and give your flowers just the right amount of
food. |

Yes, FedEx
will leave your flowers at your door in the event you are not present to
receive them.
FedEx Delivery
Schedule: For most major metropolitan areas FedEx will deliver
by 9:30am local time. For outlying areas FedEx will attempt to deliver
between 10:30-12:00 local time.
If you are not going to be
available, please call us at (877) 899-0633 and we may be able to schedule
your flowers to be held for pick up at your local FedEx office. If
flowers are held for pick up, please receive your flowers as soon as
possible as most local offices do not have coolers available.
IMPORTANT
NOTICE - Direct Flower Importers, LLC is not responsible for
flowers held at a local FedEx office for any period of time, or for
flowers delivered to you while you are not present. We recommend you
track your order and ensure you are available at delivery
time. |

highest quality flowers are sold by our company.
We work with only the very best
