Hospital Flower Delivery Christchurch
Brighten someone’s hospital stay with fresh, beautiful blooms! We provide daily deliveries to major hospitals and private clinics across Christchurch.
To ensure your flowers reach the recipient without delay, please include the following details in your delivery notes:
- Patient’s Full Legal Name (avoid nicknames so staff can match hospital records)
- Hospital Name & Specific Ward Number
- A Mobile Contact Number (for the recipient or a family member)
Please double-check that your loved one has not been discharged before placing your order. An additional delivery fee will be charged should your gift need to be redirected.
Please Note: Hospital policies regarding fresh flowers and gifts vary significantly. We strongly recommend reviewing our quick guide below before placing your order to ensure a smooth delivery.
Best Floral Styles for Hospital Stays
Hospitals are busy environments with limited space and resources. To make things easy for both patients and nursing staff, we recommend:
- Vase-Ready & Self-Watering Arrangements: Choose designs that come in a water box or vase so the recipient doesn't need to hunt for container space. Top Picks: Winter Botanist, Sunshine Posy, or Keepsake Posy. Ordering a bouquet? Be sure to add a water box or vase at checkout!
- Low-Pollen & Unscented Blooms: Keep shared rooms comfortable for patients and staff with low-allergen options. Top Picks: Winter Botanist, Botanica Bouquet, or Botanica Posy Box.
- Compact Bedside Sizes: Small tables mean compact arrangements are best. Top Picks: Posy Box or Keepsake Posy.
Christchurch Hospital Guidelines
Christchurch Public Hospital & Christchurch Women's Hospital
- Fresh Flowers & Potted Plants: Not Permitted in wards or other areas.
- Our Recommendation: Send one of our non-floral gifts from our Little Extras collection instead!
Burwood Hospital
- Fresh Flowers: Welcomed in most general wards!
- Restricted Areas: No flowers allowed in the Admitting Unit (pre-surgery), PACU (recovery), or Progressive Care Unit (after surgery).
- Special Wards: Please check directly with ward staff before ordering if the patient is in HG (Spinal) or CG (Young Persons Rehab).
- Our Recommendations: Choose low-pollen, unscented florals for shared rooms. Keep gift packages compact. If sending treats to Older Persons Health or Ward DG (Stroke), please confirm any dietary restrictions first.
St George's Hospital
- Fresh Flowers: Compact, well-arranged florals are preferred so they can be positioned away from the patient and are easy for staff to manage.
- Restricted Areas: No flowers permitted in ICU, CDU, or HDU.
- Potted Plants: Not permitted.
- Our Recommendations: Opt for low-pollen flowers. Care packages and gift boxes are warmly welcomed! Confirm the patient's expected stay duration so delivery arrives while they are still admitted.
