Our bouquets are designed to last as beautifully as they look. Depending on the varieties used, your flowers can stay fresh anywhere from 7 to 14 days. Some blooms are more delicate and seasonal, while others are chosen specifically for their long vase life. With the right care, including fresh water, a clean vase, and a cool spot away from direct sunlight, your arrangement will thrive and bring joy for days to come. We include simple flower care tips with every order to help you get the most out of your bouquet.
Absolutely! If you love fresh flowers as much as we do, our subscription service is the perfect way to keep your space blooming on repeat.

Our Products

Oh, the possibilities. Our signature flower box is more than just a pretty package — it’s a little storage wizard. Compact, charming, and easy to tuck away, it’s perfect for holding keepsakes, notes, or anything you want to stash in style. And when you’re ready to part with it, just unfold and place it in your blue bin. It’s fully recyclable, made from locally recycled materials, and designed with sustainability in mind. Pretty, practical, and planet-friendly — just the way we like it. 🌸
At April Flowers, we don’t cut corners when it comes to the planet. If it doesn’t align with our values, we simply don’t do it. That means making intentional choices in every part of our process, including how we package your flowers. Many florists and farms around the world still use cellophane sleeves and wraps that end up in landfills. We believe there’s a better way. Our flowers are wrapped using biodegradable and compostable materials, because beauty should never come at the cost of the earth. Flowers are one of the most meaningful ways to express love and emotion. But when we step back and look at the environmental impact of traditional packaging, it’s clear we all have room to grow. At April Flowers, we’re proud to lead by example and push for change in the floral industry. We’re here to educate, inspire, and encourage our customers to expect more and to make eco-conscious choices part of the everyday. It’s 2024. Sustainability should be the standard.

Absolutely. We offer flower delivery across the Greater Vancouver area and nearby communities. For our curated gifts and specialty items, we also provide shipping throughout Canada. Every order is handled with care from our hands to theirs.
If no one is home when your flowers arrive, our driver will do their best to leave the arrangement in a safe, shaded location near the door. If that’s not possible — for example, if the weather isn’t suitable or access is restricted — the flowers will be returned to the shop and we’ll contact you to arrange redelivery or pickup. We want your blooms to arrive fresh and beautiful, so we take extra care in ensuring they’re not left somewhere that could compromise their quality. If you’re sending flowers to someone, including a phone number or buzzer code at checkout helps us ensure a smooth delivery.
