Here are answers to many of the questions we have heard from our valuable customers.

We will update the delivery dates for current subscribers each season as we determine the delivery schedule for your area. These dates are approximate because every season is different, and we want to deliver our products at the perfect time so that you are free to enjoy them without worrying about the elements such as frost or excessive heat. If you do not see dates for your area, they have not yet been determined. Check back for updates.

Planter Questions

Simple and Grand will include detailed care instructions with each arrangement. Watch for an informational card in your planter that will cover watering, fertilizing, pruning, and other topics that will help you be successful.

The majority of our arrangements are designed to be displayed outdoors but a few items can work indoors as well. Summer Shade containers would be the most successful indoors due to the minimal sunlight requirement. Our planters should perform well for a few weeks in sunnier window locations but should be moved outside for best results. We are happy to discuss each situation in detail so please contact us! 

With each delivery, Simple and Grand provides specific care instructions and tips on caring for your arrangement. The arrangements will typically have a seasonal shelf life and one arrangement will usually begin to decline before your next arrangement is scheduled to arrive. However, if you follow our tips on protecting your arrangements from extreme weather, selectively pruning to keep containers tight and attractive, and dead heading to encourage more blooms, your arrangements will last as long as possible.

Simple and Grand will provide a permanent container as a rental. This container will stay at your home and our team will swap out inserts each season. This will allow you to keep the look/feel of your container and enjoy new arrangements as the seasons change.

Simple and Grand does "own" the permanent containers and will retrieve them when you cancel your service and/or skip a season. With both skipping and canceling, Simple and Grand will leave the insert (Flowers) with the customer unless otherwise specified by customer.

At the beginning of each season our team will go out to any homes that are skipping that season or canceling and retrieve the permanent containers.  The approximate timeline this will occur is below:

  • Spring – April
  • Summer – June
  • Fall- September
  • Winter – November

If a planter is not out or readily available, Simple and Grand will charge the customer for the container.  The customer will then have 14-days to return the container to get a full-refund.

  • Signature: $79.99
  • Signature Plus Round: $124.99
