We have finished shipping our mailer boxes for 2010.
Once a year, for a short time, we offer you this unique opportunity to send a big bouquet of our northwest fresh cut daffodils to someone special. We call it our "Mailer Box".
Our season for mailing daffodils has ended for 2010.
To take advantage of this offer you will need to click on and print out our "Mailer Box Order Form" link to the left, fill it out and send it to us with your payment. Or place your order with a phone call to our store between 9am and 6pm (west coast time) at 360-482-5566.
We hand pick 30 yellow daffodils while they are still in a tight bud stage. We prepare them for shipment by precooling them, allowing the ends of their stems to seal in moisture, and then we carefully package them in a box with Huckleberry greens, care instructions, and an enclosure card that offers a personal message from you. We ship them via a 2 or 3 day delivery option. When this box is received by your special friends or family the daffodils are just beginning to open. Once they have followed the enclosed directions the daffodils bloom into a cheerful bouquet of spring color within 24 hours and last for days.
We ship our mailer boxes on only Monday's, Tuesday's, and Wednesday's. This ensures that the cut flowers will arrive in good time and not sit in transit over a weekend.
We also offer our local customers, that can come into our store, the opportunity to purchase a Mailer Box that is filled and ready for shipment but opting to mail it yourself to save the expense of our handling charges. The cost of each box is $9.99 plus sales tax. It's easy to mail at your local post office or United Parcel Service store. We reccommend using the USPS Priority Rush option or the UPS 2nd Day Air service. You want it to arrive in 3 days or less, and making sure to send it early in the week so that it does not sit in transit over a weekend.
