Delivering flowers to USF & University Area

The University area generates a particular kind of flower order: graduations, dorm-room birthdays, recital and match-day bouquets, parents sending something from out of state because they can't be here. We do a lot of all of it, and we're used to the logistics being awkward.

Campus delivery is not like delivering to a house. Residence halls have front desks with their own hours, apartment complexes along 42nd and Fletcher have package rooms and gate codes, and a student in class at 2 PM can't come down to meet a driver. Give us a phone number for the recipient and we'll coordinate directly with them rather than leaving flowers to wilt at a desk.

Rooms in the medical facilities off Bruce B. Downs, where we confirm the unit allows fresh flowers before building.

Long-distance parent orders

You're in another state, we're ten minutes from your kid. Call us and we'll handle it.

FAQ

Delivering to
USF & University Area

Anything else, the phone is the fastest way — we're open 24 hours.

Can you deliver flowers to a USF dorm or residence hall?

Yes. Residence halls route through a front desk with limited hours, so we need the recipient's phone number and their building. We'd rather reach them directly and hand it over than leave an arrangement sitting at a desk all afternoon.

Do you deliver flowers to hospitals near USF?

Yes, with a room number and the unit name. Some units — ICU, oncology, transplant — don't permit fresh flowers at all. Tell us where it's going when you call and we'll check before we build anything, so you don't pay for something that gets turned away.

I live out of state. Can I send flowers to my student at USF?

That's a big share of our University-area orders. Call us, tell us the budget and the occasion, and give us the student's phone number. We're ten minutes from campus, which is closer than any national service that would take your order and hand it to a shop like ours anyway.

How early should I order graduation flowers?

At least a week for commencement weekends, more if you want a specific palette. Graduation is one of the few times we genuinely run out of certain stems across the whole Tampa market.

Can you deliver to apartments around Fletcher and 42nd?

Yes. Those complexes usually need a gate code or a call-up, so include whatever access instructions you have. If you don't know them, a working phone number for the recipient solves it every time.
