• If I order now, when will I receive my order?

  We aim to deliver within 7 days of your order. We're currently experiencing periodic delays due to Covid and Brexit (double whammy!), but we'll give you the heads up if this is the case for your order. 

• Will I be able to see what plant choice is coming up?

  You will be able to see which refills you have ordered on your account page. Our homepage features a preview of the boxes available for the current season.

• Will I be able to skip deliveries?

• What should I do with my used Bloom Bag?

  Our Bloom Bags are fully biodegradable. They’re made from a special sustainable fabric. This means it can be easily disposed of with food waste, garden compost or in green council recycling bins.

• What are your seasons?

  We define seasons as:

  Winter - 1st December to last day of February

  Spring - 1st March to last day of May

  Summer - 1st June to last day of August

  Autumn - 1st September to last day of November
• What if I order near the end of a season? 

  For first time orderers, to ensure you get the most from your plants we switch between seasons 2 weeks before the end of each seasonal window. This is so you don't receive your next season's refills too close to your first delivery. This means if you order right at the end of a season, you might have a slight wait before your delivery, but we'll email you to give you the heads up if this is the case.

Bloom Bag Questions

• Can I order Bloom Bags without your window boxes?

  Absolutely. Our Bloom Bags are designed to easily drop into most window boxes. We recommend that you check your own window box sizes along with the dimensions of our bloom bags. 

• What sizes do your Bloom Bags come in? 

  They come in 3 sizes, which should fit most window boxes. 

  • Small - 35cm length - 3 plants - Perfect for window boxes 25-45cm long

  • Medium - 60cm length - 5 plants - Perfect for window boxes 45-70cm long

  • Large - 80cm length (2x 40cm Bloom Bags) - 8 plants - Perfect for window boxes 70-90cm long

• How do I know the Bloom Bag will fit my window box?

  Firstly you should start by measuring the width, depth and height of your window box. As we have a few sizes of bloom bags which you can see below with their dimensions, choosing the size that fits best with your window box dimensions. Please bear in mind you may need two bloom bags per window box depending on size.

• What are the dimensions of you Bloom Bags?

  As they're so malleable, our Bloom Bags can fit into most window box sizes. As standard they're about 20cm in height and 18cm in width.

• Can I squeeze my Bloom Bags into my box?

  Within reason yes. The roots of the plants are 10-12cm in diameter, and squeezing these too much will push the plants up out of their Bloom Bag or damage the roots.

• I need to boost the height of my Bloom Bag, what can I do?

  If the Bloom Bag needs to sit higher in your window box, you can use anything water resistant (a few suggestions are gardening gravel, wooden blocks, a brick...). 

• How do I remove my Bloom Bag from my window box?

  Depending on the size and style of your window box we suggest you don your best gardening gloves and whilst doing so, lift either end of the bloom bags. Lightly lifting the bag, they may need a little squeeze either side and a little jiggle, with that little dance the bags should lift straight out.

• Can I order more than one size of Bloom Bag?

  Sure. You can choose varying Bloom Bag sizes as part of your subscription. 

• How long will my Bloom Bags last?

  With the right care and watering your plant should last 3 months. Given the right care and watering your plants will last for 3 months. Please visit our Instagram to find handy tips and advice on how to get the best from your plants. If you’ve given your plants enough love and attention and they are still falling short

Window Box Questions

• What size window frame does this fit?

  Our boxes are like no other. They fit window sills ranging from 90cm to 130cm with a minimum depth of 16cm. The extendable arms (like clamps) fix it securely to your window sill. Simply pop the box in place, twist the arms to secure it to the window frame, and sit back and watch your flowers grow. 

• Can I use the box without the extendable arms?

  Yes you can, this reduces the box size to 85cm. We recommend only doing this on ground floor windows, or ensuring the box is safely secured. 

• What type of windows do they fit?

  Our boxes fit to window sill that has a width of 90cm to 130cm and a depth of 16cm, this allows the box to sit safely without any fear of it falling off.

• Do you have different sizes?

  We currently only offer one size of window box which is 90cm in length, but our box is like no other. Its extendable arms allow it to fit on any window sill ranging from 90cm to 130cm.

• Can you install for me?

  The installation process is so easy, anyone could do it. We currently don’t offer installation help for subscriptions fewer than 5 boxes.

• Will I need any additional equipment to install my window box?

  Your box comes with a little spanner, to aid you when extending and tightening the arms.

• How do I install safely?

  To install your box safely please follow these easy steps:

  1. If you’re installing your window box on the first floor or higher, make sure there are no passers-by or vehicles below. Avoid installing it in strong winds too.
  2. Your clever window box comes with arms (like clamps) to fix it securely to your window sill. Extend the arms, then pop the box on your window sill. Tighten the arms until the box fits snugly and securely to the window frame. Give it a little wobble to check it’s as tight as can be. Sorry to get all serious, but legally we need to be clear that secure installation and maintenance is your responsibility.
  3. They’re all planted and ready to grow. All you need to do is water them every other day in summer (half a mug per plant) or every 2-3 days in winter.
