For our freshest, most beautiful blooms, please shop our Florist’s Choice options, as we may be experiencing
delays in receiving shipments of certain flower types.
Please note that for all other orders, we may need to replace stems so we can deliver the freshest bouquet possible, and we may have to use a different vase.
We promise to always deliver a fresh, beautiful, and completely one-of-a-kind gift of the same or greater value as what you selected.
Deliveries may also be impacted by COVID-19 restrictions. Rest assured that we are taking all recommended precautions to ensure customer satisfaction and safety.
Delivery impacts may include:
Restricted deliveries to hospitals or nursing homes
Restricted deliveries to office buildings
Restricted access to certain regional areas
In addition, we may be using “no contact” delivery procedures. After confirming that the
recipient is available to accept, their gift will be left at the door and the delivery driver will step back a
safe distance to ensure they receive their gift.
Please see our About Us page for more details. We appreciate
your understanding and support!

Traditional is pink for girls and blue for boys, but honestly, do whatever you want. Yellow is cheerful and gender-neutral. White looks clean and fresh (unlike everything else in their house right now). Rainbow arrangements are fun and photograph well. Some Bradenton parents specifically request no pink or blue because they're over it. Blushing Flowers says follow your gut - or if you know the nursery colors, match those. The sleep-deprived parents just appreciate that you remembered they had a baby.
Home is usually better. Hospital stays are short now (like 24-48 hours), rooms are small, and they're juggling doctors, visitors, and learning to breastfeed. Plus they have to carry those flowers home with a new baby and all their stuff. Wait 3-4 days after they're home, then send flowers. By then, the meal train has started, reality has set in, and flowers feel like a real gift. Blushing Flowers delivers throughout Bradenton to homes whenever you think is best. If you must send to the hospital, make it small and include a vase.
Same celebration, same flowers! New parents are new parents, however that baby arrived. Bright, cheerful arrangements work perfectly. Skip anything that mentions delivery or recovery on the card - focus on celebrating the new family. Some adoptive parents wait years for this moment, so go big if you want. Surrogacy situations might mean sending to multiple addresses. Blushing Flowers in Bradenton handles all types of families and celebrations. Love is love, babies are babies, everyone deserves flowers.
Yes - skip anything super fragrant. Lilies especially - they're beautiful but the scent is overwhelming in a nursery, and the pollen stains everything (new parents don't need more laundry). Avoid anything with thorns that need trimming or high-maintenance arrangements that need daily care. They can barely shower, they're not pruning roses. White flowers can look too sympathy-like if you're not careful. Blushing Flowers suggests de-thorned roses, cheerful sunflowers, or gentle mixed bouquets without heavy scents. Also maybe skip the massive arrangements - Bradenton apartments are already crammed with baby gear. Small to medium works better. The goal is something pretty that doesn't add to their to-do list.
