What happens if I don’t receive my flowers on the delivery date specified?

Our team of volunteers and couriers work hard to get hundreds of fresh daffodil bunches to addresses around the region. From time to time there may be the odd mix up. If your daffodils don’t arrive when they should, please contact us within 24 hours so we can organise getting a fresh bunch to you.

How do I care for my flowers?

For best results and gorgeous long-lasting blooms, trim the stems of your daffodils, place them in fresh water and keep them in a cool place. Sometimes the flowers might be in tight bud when they arrive, which means they will open over the next few days.

What happens if my flowers aren’t in good condition when received?

We work closely with our suppliers, Clandon Daffodils, to ensure the product you receive is to a high standard. If you are not satisfied with your fresh daffodils, please contact us within 24 hours of receiving your daffodils so we can organise getting a fresh bunch to you.

What happens if the Covid-19 Alert Levels change?

We’re confident we’ll be able to deliver beautiful, bright daffodils to your door in time for Daffodil Day – even under ‘red’ settings. But if the last two years have taught us anything, it’s that things can change without warning. In the very unlikely event our daffodils can’t be delivered because of New Zealand Government restrictions, the purchase price of your daffodils will be very gratefully received as a donation in support of people with cancer. However, we completely understand if you require a refund. We appreciate your continued understanding and generosity as we navigate the pandemic.

How does my purchase help?

As a community-funded charity, the Cancer Society relies on the support of New Zealanders so we can provide supportive care services for people affected by cancer, fund vital cancer research and deliver health promotion and education programmes in our community.

All money raised from the sale of fresh flowers stays in the Waikato/Bay of Plenty regions to support people in our communities who are impacted by cancer.
