Please Note

Your flowers will arrive looking thirsty and sleepy. This is absolutely NORMAL. Please see our Flower Care tab on this page to learn how to properly care for and handle your flowers.

As flowers are a natural product of Mother Nature and monitor resolutions can differ, the exact color tones of this flower may vary to some degree.

Package contents and prices are based on availability and may change due to weather and market conditions. If a substitution is necessary, we take great care to ensure your order closely matches your original choice, even if this means substituting items of higher value. While we will make every effort to contact you, there may be rare instances where we are unable to reach you in time. In such cases, we may proceed with substitutions to ensure your order ships on schedule, even without prior verbal confirmation.

Caring for Your Tropical Flowers

Tropical flowers are shipped fresh directly from our farms to your doorstep. If your flowers appear "sleepy" or "thirsty" after their journey, this is completely normal. These flowers have just completed an international journey and need water. Following the important care and preparation steps below will help rehydrate them and ensure they last as long as possible.


Tropical Flower Care Steps – From Arrival to Use

Step 1: Unpack and Inspect

  • Unpack Promptly: Open your boxes as soon as they arrive and remove any straps or outer packaging such as foam or paper.

  • Inspect Your Flowers: Look over your tropicals for any concerns before continuing with processing.

Step 2: Prepare the Containers

  • Use Clean Buckets: Choose buckets or containers that are clean and free from soap residue or bacteria. Rinse with warm water to help keep your flowers healthy.

  • Add Water: Fill each container with at least 4 inches of fresh, cool water. If flower food is available, follow the package directions and mix it in.

Step 3: Trim and Place in Water

  • Remove Packaging: Take off any rubber bands or plastic sleeves securing the flower bunches.

  • Remove Foliage Below the Waterline: Strip any leaves that will fall below the waterline to prevent bacterial growth.

  • Trim the Stems: Use clean, sharp floral shears or scissors to cut about 1 inch off each stem at a diagonal under cool running water. Avoid using household scissors, which can crush the stems and limit water absorption.

  • Place Immediately: After trimming, place the stems directly into the prepared water.

Step 4: Hydrate and Maintain

  • Hydration Time: Allow tropical flowers to hydrate for at least 4 hours — 8 to 12 hours is ideal.

  • Water & Misting: Check water levels often, as tropicals drink heavily at first. Refill as needed, and mist petals and foliage 1–2 times per day with room temperature water.

  • Temperature & Storage: Keep flowers in a warm room between 65°F–75°F. Do not refrigerate your tropical flowers — cold storage can damage the blooms. Avoid direct sunlight, cold drafts, or excessive heat.

Step 5: Ready to Use

  • Once hydrated, tropical flowers are ready to be arranged. For best results, re-cut the stems every 24–48 hours and refresh the water regularly.


Tips from Our Experts

  • Tropical flowers may arrive looking soft, compressed, or slightly limp due to shipping. This is normal — they will perk up beautifully after proper hydration and misting.

  • Always mist tropical flowers gently with room temperature water once or twice daily to maintain their humidity.

  • These blooms are extremely sensitive to cold. Avoid placing them near vents, open windows, or anywhere below 60°F.

Delivery: All of the above
Flower Care: Yes, Completely!
Additional Information: Thank you! I’ll be back. I recommended your site to a number of other floral designers at the event!
So pleased!

The flowers arrived right on time, and in perfect condition. They were for a very special Blooming Art event, and it was so important for the flowers to be beautiful & hold up. Not only were they beautiful for the event, they’re still beautiful 10 days later!

Hi Lynn!

It's wonderful to hear our flowers made your event even more unforgettable! We carefully prep and pack them so they look their very best exactly when you need them.

Thank you for choosing and recommending us for such a special event!

Ordered but unfortunately got a replacement!

I was notified the day before delivery that my order of the “neon pincushion protea pack” could not be completed due to storms impacting the farms. I/my family have ordered from FF several times before without any issue, but can’t control the weather. This was for a baby shower so when I was offered a refund or a replacement pack, I chose the latter. The replacement pack (called “the tropical pack” which isn’t even listed on the FF website so not sure exactly how that came to be) included 5 pincushion proteas, 10 brown and 10 green ti leaves, 5 red ginger, 10 pink ginger and 10 bird of paradise. As you can see, this is quite different than this neon pincushion pack listed above. In order to complete the project with the look and style of the event, I had to go to 2 additional locations to purchase and supplement flowers. In the end it worked out, but I was a bit disappointed that the original order could not be fulfilled though customer service was very nice about it.

Hi Jen,

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us and for being a loyal FiftyFlowers customer over the years. We sincerely apologize that your recent 'Neon Pincushion Protea Pack' order for the baby shower did not meet the high standards you've come to expect from us.

We understand how frustrating it is when unforeseen circumstances, like weather, impact farm production, especially before a special event. While we always aim to fulfill every order precisely as requested, severe weather can occasionally affect the availability of certain flowers. In these rare instances, our policy is to provide a substitution of equal or greater value to ensure you still have beautiful blooms for your celebration.

For future orders, please report any issues through our Help Center within 24 hours of delivery and include photos. This allows our team to respond promptly and offer the most effective support right away.

Thank you again for your understanding and for noting the helpfulness of our customer service team. If you have any further questions or would like to send us the photos, please feel free to reach out at cservice@fiftyflowers.com or 1-877-50-ROSES.

Sincerely,
The FiftyFlowers Team
