Due to various seasonal and regional
conditions, availability of some flowers may be very limited in certain
areas. Also, specific flower varieties or colors may not be available for
delivery on a specified day. Therefore, it is possible that the exact
bouquet pictured or requested may not be available for delivery.
-
In this event, the florist will deliver a
second choice of similar flowers and container of equal value and beauty.
Every effort will be made to maintain size, shape, and overall color
schemes of an arrangement, but there may be some variance due to designer
interpretation. In single variety arrangements, variety will take
preference over color.
-
If a particular flower or
container is not available, an item of similar quality and value will be
substituted. Substitution is only done when a situation arises beyond the
control of our staff. In the event that a substitution needs to be done,
the following guidelines will be used:
-
There shall be no
substitution in type of arrangement; that is, no change in size or
shape.
-
In the arrangement of
assorted flowers, the colors shown in the online catalogue will be used
if possible — even if this means substituting other kinds of flowers of
equal or higher value.
-
When a substitution is necessary, the
utmost care shall be taken to maintain the overall effect of the
arrangement illustrated in the online catalogue. For example, spiked
flowers should be substituted for spikes and round flowers for round.
-
In arrangements of a single kinds of
flowers, such as roses, the variety is of first importance, preceding
color in this instance only.
-
Substitution does not
means that we will replace a fresh cut flowers with a non-natural types;
for example, we will not replaced a fresh tulips with a non-natural type
or a sunflower with a plastic or silk.
