How do you package your orchids?
SeattleOrchid.com takes great pride in packaging each orchid with absolute care. We use recycled newspaper shredding in each box as insulation and padding. In addition, each orchid will be wrapped carefully using a ventilated plastic sleeve or additional newspaper. All orchids are carefully packaged for zero damage. We take every care possible to ensure safe arrival for your orchids.
Do you deliver orchid gifts in person?
Unfortunately we do not deliver gifts locally. We ship all of our orchids via FedEx or USPS. We guarantee your gift recipient will be surprised when he/she receives their beautiful orchid. For any gifted plant, we highly recommend fast shipping with FedEx 2nd-day.
When will I receive my plant using FedEx 2nd-day?
Items shipped using FedEx 2nd-day will be delivered in 2 business days by 4:30pm to most areas (by 7:30 to residences). We ship all of our plants Mon-Wed. Orders placed before 1pm (pst) on Mon-Wed will be shipped out the same day. Orders placed after 1pm (pst) on Wed - Fri will be shipped out the following Monday. If you live locally or within a 1-day delivery time, we will ship out your order on Thursday. Saturday delivery is not available. Orchids shipped on Monday will arrive on Wednesday via FedEx 2nd-day GUARANTEED!

Do you ship orchids to Hawaii or internationally?
