1. I have received notice that my order has been delayed.
We strive to send your order out to you on the same day it is placed. In exceptional circumstances, however, a delay may occur due to a product being unavailable. Unfortunately, due to seasonal influences, the delivery of fresh plants is sometimes beyond our control. If this is the case, we will keep you updated about your delayed order every two days. Of course, every effort will be made to complete your order on time!

2. When will my order arrive?
Have you received notification that your order has been sent, but you have not received it yet?
If your order has been sent by regular mail, it may take several days for it to arrive. Unfortunately, there is no track & trace code available for standard postal items. Your order is shipped from the Netherlands, and in most cases, the order will be delivered within the Netherlands and Belgium the next day. Shipping to other countries is expected to take no longer than two weeks.
Have you checked the address specified on the order? If it is correct, then the order will eventually reach you, and we ask for your patience as you wait for it to arrive. If you feel that this is not the case and your delivery is taking an excessively long time, or if you have seen an error in your address, then please contacts us.
If your order has been sent as a package, you will have received a track & trace code by email that will allow you to follow the delivery of your item. Due to unforeseen circumstances, delays in your delivery may occur, for example, if there is something wrong with the specified address. Please double-check this, and provide us with the correct address information as soon as possible.

However, you can leave your e-mail address on the product page, and you will receive a message from us when the product is available.
Spring flowers like tulips, daffodils, crocuses, snowdrops, hyacinths, alliums, etc. can be ordered in autumn, and should also be planted in autumn so you can enjoy their blooms the following spring.
Summer flowers like gladioli, dahlias, canna's, calla's, freesias, etc. can be ordered in spring. These should also be planted in spring, after the night frost period, and will bloom the following summer.
