FLOWERS
As each flower is unique, so too, are your special requirements and concerns surrounding your order.
Quality & Flower Maintenance
Helena Rose takes great pride in the quality of our products and services. We are in the business of helping people to feel good and/or celebrate through our flowers, and it is at the heart of everything we do. Each week we purchase the majority of our flowers and foliage directly from local suppliers, to ensure the best quality, fresh flowers are hand selected every week.
We are, however, selling a natural product that is fragile and perishable, ie. they have a limited life span, and we are unable to give an exact number of days they will remain fresh. Flowers will react to their immediate indoor environment and external weather conditions, and unfortunately once our product is dispatched, a number of changes in their surrounding condition may result in their longevity being reduced which is out of our control.
To assist, Helena Rose includes Flower Food and care instructions when items are picked up. These instructions if followed thoroughly will help maximise the life span and enjoyment of your flowers. To assist in prolonging their life, we recommend cutting the stems on a sharp angle and changing the water in the vase every two days. Air conditioning, extreme heat or changes in climate may also have an adverse effect on the flowers. Unfortunately, with all the possible variables, it is difficult for Helena Rose to guarantee the flower quality and longevity in every case.
Two Day Return Policy
Should your flowers perish within 1 – 2 days of the purchase date and we are satisfied that all care instructions provided have been followed, Helena Rose will be happy to offer a replacement at our expense, on a day/time you request. To assist us in assessing the product quality, Helena Rose reserves the right to request photos or images of the original flowers (sent by text or email) within three days of the original purchase date. This is a standard request that all florists will ask for in the event of customer complaints. Helen Rose also requires that any dissatisfaction with the freshness of the flowers be communicated with us within 3 days via email info@helenarose.com.au or calling us on 0450 514 142.
IMPORTANT: To assist us in quality control, it is our policy to collect the original flowers so that we can show our growers/suppliers what has happened. As we are sure you can understand, we cannot arrange to replace fresh flowers if the original flowers have already been disposed of, or images within three days of delivery are unavailable.
Change of mind policy
Since all our work is made to order or custom designed, Helena Rose recommends that customers choose wisely to avoid disappointment as we do not offer a return/exchange for change of mind.
However depending on circumstances Helena Rose is happy to try and accommodate a change of mind or refund if possible. We are unable to accept change of mind requests once a product has been purchased for, created or left the store.
It is suggested to contact us as soon as possible, should you want to change or cancel an order via email info@helenarose.com.au or calling us on 0450 514 142.
