Frequently Asked Questions

What flowers are appropriate to send to a funeral?

White lilies, roses, chrysanthemums and orchids are traditional choices. Standing sprays and wreaths are usually sent to the service, while bouquets, baskets and plants suit the family home.

Should I send funeral flowers to the service or to the family's home?

Can you deliver flowers to a funeral home in NYC?

How much should I spend on funeral flowers?

What should I write on a sympathy card?

Keep it short and sincere, for example: With deepest sympathy, Holding you in our hearts, or Thinking of you and your family. Then sign your name so the family knows who sent the flowers.
