Sending Flowers to a Hospital in Los Angeles
Which arrangements hospitals accept, what ICUs restrict, and the exact details we need to get to the room.
Hospital deliveries fail for boring reasons: no room number, a patient already discharged, or a unit that doesn't allow flowers. All three are avoidable.
Check the unit first
Most ICUs, burn units, transplant wards and many maternity and oncology units restrict fresh flowers and plants. A quick call to the hospital's front desk will confirm the policy for that floor.
When flowers aren't allowed, we can hold the arrangement for delivery to the home after discharge — often the more useful gift anyway.
Send small, low-scent and self-contained
Patient rooms have very little surface space. A compact vase arrangement that needs no extra water container is ideal. Skip heavily scented blooms like lilies and hyacinth in shared rooms.
What we need from you
Patient's full name as admitted, hospital name and full address, room or unit number if you have it, and the patient's or a family member's phone number. Hospitals will not always look up a patient by first name alone.
Timing around discharge
If the patient may go home within a day, send to the home instead. We deliver across Los Angeles seven days a week, free, so switching the address is easy — just call us.
Common questions
- Do Los Angeles hospitals allow flowers in patient rooms?
- Most general medical and surgical floors do. Intensive care, transplant and some oncology units usually don't — check with the hospital's front desk before ordering.
- Can you deliver directly to a patient's room?
- We deliver to the hospital, and staff bring the arrangement to the room per their own policy. Give us the patient's full name and room number to keep it moving.
