Seasonal conditions may affect the supply of certain kind of flowers. Specific colours may not always be available. In some cases, substitution may be necessary to fulfill your floral and container requirements.
In certain extreme cases, subject to stock-availability, we reserve the right to substitute your order with another item that is of equal or higher value. Containers shown may not always be available as well. In these circumstances, alternative containers of similar value and style will be used.
When is my card charged?
Your card will not be charged until your flowers are ready for dispatch.
What happens when the recipient is not at home at the time of delivery?
If the recipient is not at home at the time of delivery, Stemsor the assisting florist may choose to:
Leave a note on the recipient's door asking the recipient to call the florist's shop and arrange a convenient time for redelivery.
Leave the arrangement with a neighbour and attach a note to the recipient's door stating who accepted the arrangement on their behalf.
If instructed by the customer, call the recipient first to arrange a delivery time.
If the recipient is at work all day, we suggest sending the flower arrangement to their place of work.
Please note: Most deliveries are made during normal business hours (9 to 5). Deliveries in the early morning or after 5:00 or 6:00 p.m. would require prior arrangement.
Can my arrangement be delivered on Sundays & Public Holidays?
Kindly advise us earlier (1 to 2 days) for deliveries to be made on Sunday and Saturday i.e. by Friday or Thursday.
In the event the delivery date is a Public Holiday, we may deliver on the next working day.
At all times we will strive to deliver on the date requested, and if we are not able to, we will advise you as soon as possible.
On occasions like Valentine's & Mother's Day we will be extending our hours of delivery. For these peak occasions, we strongly advise you to place your order earlier.
How far in advance can I place an order?
You can place an order as far in advance as you wish.
Can I order more than one item at a time online?
You can if they are all being sent to the same person. But if you want to send more than one gift to more than one person, the easiest way is to put through each order separately.

saturday 8.30-12.
