Delivery methods for 1-800-Flowers depend on whether the arrangement is sourced from a local partner florist or shipped directly from a central agricultural farm or warehouse. Flowers prepared by local florists are typically delivered fully arranged, hand-delivered in a vase, and ready to display. Conversely, certain specialty arrangements, boxed roses, or shipped plant products arrive packaged securely in specialized cardboard shipping boxes with hydration packs, requiring the recipient to unpack and arrange the stems themselves.
