Pink Lily Plant and Pink Rose in Newspaper Print Wrap

A romantic pairing with a touch of nostalgia. A living pink lily rises from its pot and opens bloom after bloom, while a single pink rose adds a tender, classic accent. Soft pink phalaris and golden wheat bring movement and a countryside warmth, glossy ruscus and a green dianthus ball add freshness, and phoenix palm leaves give the design a graceful sweep. It is all wrapped in pink newspaper-print paper with a pale pink ribbon, which gives it a charming vintage character. A heartfelt choice for a partner, a birthday, an anniversary or Mother's Day, and because the lily is potted, it keeps flowering long after the day itself. Same-day delivery across Istanbul when ordered before the cut-off.

What is actually in it

One potted pink lily plant and exactly one pink rose with pink phalaris, wheat ears, ruscus, green dianthus and phoenix palm leaves, in a polymer pot 12 cm tall and 13.5 cm wide, wrapped in pink newspaper-print paper with a pale pink ribbon, about 40 to 45 cm tall. Dark marks at the tip of a rose petal are a trait of the variety, not a flaw.

What it looks like on day four

As a potted plant this lily keeps flowering for well over a week, with closed buds opening one after another. Once the flowers are over, the plant can stay as green foliage, and with care it can bloom again the next season.

We photograph every listing on the bench under daylight. The image you are looking at is the arrangement, not a mood board.

This is a living lily plant in its pot. It likes plenty of bright but indirect light; direct sun can scorch the leaves, and turning the pot now and then keeps it growing evenly. Water when the top of the soil feels slightly dry and never leave the pot standing in water. A light mist on the leaves helps in heated rooms.

The five things that actually matter

1. Recut the stems. Two centimetres off at a 45° angle, under running water if you can. Air locks in the stem are the main cause of early droop.
2. Strip leaves below the waterline. Submerged foliage rots and turns the water bacterial within a day.
3. Change the water, do not just top it up. Every two days, with the sachet we include.
4. Keep them away from fruit. Ripening fruit releases ethylene, which ages cut flowers dramatically faster.
5. Cool and out of direct sun. A radiator or a sunny windowsill will halve the vase life of anything.

Do all five and you should see nine days from this bouquet rather than five. The long version is in the journal.

Delivery

Same-day delivery is available across all 39 districts of Istanbul, on the same nine daily delivery windows from 09:00 to 22:00. Delivery is always free, on every order, everywhere we deliver in Istanbul, no threshold, no surcharge.

We deliver in our own vans with our own drivers. That is more expensive than handing it to a parcel courier, and it is the reason 98.2% of orders land inside the window you chose.

Substitution policy

Fresh flowers are an agricultural product. Occasionally the market does not have what we planned for, especially with seasonal stems like peonies. When that happens we do one of two things, and never anything else:

• Substitute a stem of equal or greater value in the same colour family, and email you a photograph before dispatch so you can approve it or cancel for a full refund.
• If no acceptable substitute exists, we call you. We will not quietly send something different and hope you do not notice.

Cancellations

Change or cancel free until 18:00 the day before delivery. After that the flowers are cut and conditioned specifically for your order, so cancellation is not possible — this is the perishable-goods exception under distance-selling rules, and it is stated again at checkout before you pay.
