Get Well Plants
Low demands, first. Someone recovering has a finite amount of attention and none of it should go on a plant, so look for foliage that handles lower light and forgives an irregular watering. Keep the size sensible too. A plant that needs a spot cleared for it is a small job handed to someone who isn't up to jobs. The easy-care end of our plant gifts range is the place to start.
Recovery at home is longer and duller than most people expect, and the messages tend to stop after the first week. A plant is still in the room in the third week, which is the part that drags. Something with new growth visible is worth choosing here, because watching a leaf unfurl is a genuinely decent way to mark time passing.
Send it to the home address, because we don't deliver to hospitals. Rules about potted plants differ from ward to ward, and patients get moved or discharged at short notice, which makes a ward a poor bet for anything living. Home is the better send anyway. A hospital stay ends with someone carrying bags to the car, and a plant already on the bench beats one more thing to carry out. Pick a delivery date for the day they're due home, or a couple of days after, once the house has settled.
Plenty of these orders are people buying for themselves, and that's a perfectly good reason to order. If you're between things, or just home and bored of it, greenery in the room you're stuck in does more than it sounds like it should. For something quieter and more understated, our sympathy plants range is chosen along similar lines.
Order before 12pm on a weekday, or before 10am on Saturday, and we deliver the same day across the suburbs we cover. Our drivers head out in the early afternoon and homes are delivered by 6pm, and there are no Sunday deliveries. Check the address first on our Brisbane delivery areas page, and our delivery terms cover what happens if nobody's home.
