Flower Buying Times

There are different ways that you can buy quality cut flowers. From our:

‘Flower London’ stock
‘Flowers Holland’ stock
‘Pre-Order’ list

Each has it’s benefits. The best thing about buying with Westflor is you don’t have to choose just one way to buy. You can mix and match and select which option is best for you, remember there is no minimum spend from any one stock.

If you’re yet to read ‘Our Recommendations’ it’s well worth a read. We explain exactly which way is best in any given circumstance and do some serious myth busting around Pre-ordering so you have a clear picture of the benefits of buying each way.

As you’ll see these three different ways of buying your flowers have different ordering times.

TUESDAY

FLOWERS LONDON

Order: Saturday 10am - Monday 2am

For Arrival: Monday

Whilst we deliver and have a good range of flowers available for collection on a Monday, it is a bit of an odd buying day.

Flowers come from all around the world, and we have direct supplies with many countries, but the vast majority of flowers come from Holland.

As flowers do not leave Holland and there is no Dutch Flower Auction over the weekend, Monday’s flowers arrive with us on Saturday, from Friday’s Auctions or direct from the many growers we have relationships with.

If buying for arrival Monday, you do not need to be concerned, they are still extremely fresh with the usual exceptional quality. However, we would recommend buying more flowers on Saturday or Tuesday for this reason.

The image below may explain the logistical time frame more easily.

Whilst we have a selection of Plants London available for Tuesday Collection or delivery you are likely to find that the range of stock available will be better on a Monday or Wednesday. This is due to the same reasons as Plants Holland and Plants Holland Direct are unavailable for delivery or collection on a Tuesday.

Since the end of April 2024 plant inspections by customs officers are taking place – you can read more about this HERE. As a result, these plant need to be set aside for inspection which means a Tuesday delivery or collection is logistically unavailable.
