Because you can order flowers at 11pm in your pyjamas. Don’t even put on trousers. They don’t care.
Your flowers then survive a wild overnight journey. They dodge trucks, sorting centres, and bad weather. By breakfast, they’re on your doorstep.
It’s like a tiny, fragrant miracle. And they don’t even complain about the ride.
The Quirky Logistics
Did you know these flowers are packed by hand in a giant, chilled warehouse? Somewhere, a person is carefully wrapping each stem. It’s a cold job. They probably wear jumpers.
The flowers come from all over the world. Kenyan roses. Dutch tulips. British alstroemeria. They all meet in a box, on a plane, in a van. It’s a global summit for petals.
And M&S uses gel packs in the boxes, not ice. Why? Because ice melts and turns flowers into soup. Gel packs keep things perfectly crisp. Science for the win.
