Ordering Flowers is Easy

How to Place an Order

We've designed the Teleflora website to make it quick and simple for you to place an order. After you've found the flowers or plant you want to send, click on the item name or image and follow the instructions below.

1. Shop From a Variety of Categories

   Occasion, Flower Type or Color - or search by a specific keyword or item number.

2. Select Your Product and Choose Your Preferences

   On the product information page, select how you would like to customize your gift. For example, in some instances, you will be asked whether you want to send your gift as shown or in a deluxe or premium arrangement, or you may have the option to include something extra with your gift like a mylar balloon, stuffed animal or box of chocolates.

   Once you have selected from the preferences, click Add to Cart. Your gift bouquet will be stored in your personal shopping cart, and you can either continue browsing by clicking on Return to Shopping or proceed to Checkout.

3. Proceed to checkout

   When you are ready to check out, click on the Shopping Cart link at the top of the page, and then select Checkout. You are now on the Log In page, and you will be asked to enter your e-mail address. If you are a returning shopper, enter your Teleflora password. If you are a new shopper, just click on the Continue button. You will have an opportunity to create a password later in the checkout process. Learn about the benefits you'll enjoy when you register with us.

4. Provide recipient delivery information

   After you log in, you will be asked for the recipient's delivery information. This information will allow us to ensure that your bouquet is created by an experienced florist in the recipient's neighborhood. At this time, you can also create a personal message for your card. For your convenience, we also offer pre-written messages.

5. Provide your billing information

   You will be asked for your credit card information. Teleflora transmits all credit card information using the best software available for secure commerce transactions. Please review our Security and Privacy policy for more information.

6. Review your order

   Review the details of your order, and click the Submit Order button. Your order will be received by Teleflora, and a neighborhood florist will begin creating your arrangement.

7. Save your confirmation

   Teleflora will send a confirmation email to the email address you indicated at Log In. Please save this email for future reference.

The Teleflora Guarantee

At Teleflora we are committed to exceptional service and products. If, for any reason, you are not completely satisfied with your gift or its delivery, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Our network of florists uses only the freshest flowers available for their hand-made bouquets to ensure that you can send flowers with confidence. And since every arrangement is personally delivered, we offer same-day delivery on most orders.

Order Changes and Cancellations

Teleflora is unable to cancel or change orders already in process at the florist, en route or delivered. Same-day orders are processed immediately, and usually cannot be changed. If you are calling about an order that is scheduled to be delivered today, call (800) 493-5610. For other changes, email customer service.

Problems With an Order

At Teleflora, we make every effort to ensure that you receive excellent service. If, at any time, you experience problems with an order, please let us know.

Sales Tax

Orders placed in or delivered to certain states may be subject to sales tax. You will have an opportunity to review this amount before submitting your order. You may contact customer service at 800-493-5610 with any questions regarding taxes or fees.

Service Charge

A service fee is applied to all flower and plant orders in the U.S. and Canada. The base service fee is subject to change.

Delivery Policy

When ordering gift delivery on Teleflora.com, our Teleflora gift bouquet is personally hand-delivered by an industry professional, and we make every effort to deliver your order as quickly as possible. In some circumstances, pick-up from the florist may also be available.

Most of our products can be delivered the same day. To assure same-day delivery, orders must be received before 2:00 p.m., Monday - Friday and before 12:00 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays in the recipient's time zone. Orders received after that time may be delivered the following day.

Regretfully, we are unable to guarantee time of delivery to rural route addresses, hotels, hospitals, military bases or cemeteries. To request a specific delivery time, please type it into the Special Instructions field during checkout. We will do our best to accommodate your preferences.

Before major holidays, we recommend that you place your orders at least five days in advance.

A service fee is applied to all flower and plant orders within the United States. This base service fee is subject to change during peak holiday periods. We encourage you to place your order online for the fastest possible service, but if you prefer, please feel free to call in your order. You can reach us anytime, day or night, at (800) 493-5610.

Delivery to Hospitals

The florists in our Teleflora network are experienced at making deliveries to hospitals. When placing your order, please be sure to include the hospital name and telephone number, the name of the recipient and room number or ward of the recipient.

Teleflora will send your gift bouquet in accordance with facility procedures, as most hospitals do not allow florists to personally deliver to individual rooms. Please note that many ICU patients are not permitted to receive flowers. Please check with the hospital before placing your order.

Recipient Not Home

If you have specific instructions for the delivery of your gift bouquet, please note them in the Special Delivery Instructions field during checkout. In all other cases, if the recipient is not at home when the neighborhood florist attempts a delivery, they will either:

• Call the recipient to schedule an appropriate delivery time
• Leave a note on the recipient's door asking them to contact the florist to schedule a delivery time

Substitution Policy

Occasionally, substitutions of flowers or containers are necessary due to temporary, regional availability issues. If this is the case with the gift you've selected, our experienced florists will ensure that the style, theme and color scheme of your arrangement is preserved and will only substitute items of equal or higher value.

Payment Options

Teleflora uses the industry's leading security technology to ensure that your order will be safe and secure. Please read our Satisfaction Guarantee and Security and Privacy policies for more information.

For your convenience, Teleflora accepts Visa, MasterCard, Discover Network, Diners Club, Carte Blanche, American Express and PayPal. We also offer Afterpay.
