VIEW ALL FAQS

What are the best sympathy flowers to send?

White lilies, white roses, and chrysanthemums are the most common sympathy flowers. Peace lilies are a popular plant option for a lasting gift. Soft pastels and muted tones are appropriate for nearly any sympathy situation. If you're sending to a specific religious service, white flowers are almost always a safe and respectful choice.

Can you deliver sympathy flowers the same day?

Yes. We offer same-day sympathy flower delivery across Chicago, Milwaukee, and Detroit. Orders placed before noon are typically eligible. Same-day matters for sympathy, so we prioritize these orders.

Should I send sympathy flowers to the home or the funeral?

Both are appropriate. Flowers sent to the home arrive before or after a service and let the family enjoy them privately. Flowers sent to a funeral home or church are displayed during the service. If you're unsure, sending to the home is the simpler and more personal option.

What do you write on a sympathy flower card?

Keep it simple and honest. Something like "Thinking of you during this time" or "With deepest sympathy" is always appropriate. Avoid trying to explain or fix the loss. A short, genuine message means more than a long one. We include a card option at checkout for every sympathy delivery.

Do you offer sympathy plants instead of flowers?

Yes. A peace lily is our most popular sympathy plant. It's low-maintenance, long-lasting, and carries traditional associations with peace and healing. It's a thoughtful alternative when you want to send something that stays with the family beyond a few days.

Can I send sympathy flowers for a funeral?

Yes. Our sympathy collection includes timeless options like white roses, ivory-toned hydrangeas, and soft seasonal blooms selected throughout the year for freshness and meaning. These arrangements are suitable for funerals, memorials, or sending condolences to a loved one’s home.

Are your sympathy flowers fresh and long-lasting?

Absolutely. We use fresh, hardy stems like orchids, chrysanthemums, and carnations, chosen based on seasonal availability, along with warm green potted options to ensure your arrangement stays beautiful and comforting for days after delivery.

How can I make my sympathy flower gift more personal?

You can add a handwritten condolence message or pair the flowers with a calming candle to offer a little extra comfort. Choosing soft, serene arrangements, like those featuring ivory blooms or delicate foliage, is a thoughtful and respectful touch.
