The images on our website show our brand aesthetic, style, approximate scale and price point. We custom make each arrangement using the best flowers the market and growers have to offer each week. Our selection of blooms and colours varies daily and according to availability. If you have a special request, please leave a note in the ‘Notes’ section when completing your order online or call us directly.
We are able to accommodate this request except during peak times such as Valentine’s week, Mother’s Day week, Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas. We send a photo of the arrangement after it is sent out as once an arrangement is made we are not able to remove any flowers or make any changes.
You will have to place separate orders for each delivery address and your shipping fee will be calculated for each address. If you have multiple items being shipped to the same address, an additional delivery fee may apply if they cannot be packaged in the same bag/box.
Flower subscriptions can be purchased online or over the phone. Our subscription services are available for delivery or pick up and the total is paid in full upon purchase. We offer monthly subscriptions for either 3, 6 or 12 month durations and are delivered on the same number you select of each month unless that date falls on a Sunday or statutory holiday and will be bumped either before or after to The Wild Pansy’s discretion.
If you need to change your subscription date for any reason, we require a minimum of 48 hours notice. If you give us less than 48 hours notice, we cannot guarantee a change in date.

We call to remind those who have scheduled a pick up the day before.

We deliver flowers, plants and other items we sell all across Toronto, the GTA, Halton, York, Peel and Durham. See our Where We Deliver for locations and rates. We ship our additional offerings other than flowers and plants Canada-wide and ship via Canada Post. Delivery is calculated at checkout.
We accept same day orders for delivery until 11:30 am. If you require flowers for the same day, please call the shop at 416-532-3333. If it's too late, we can coordinate for you or someone to pick them up from the shop.
For local (Toronto, GTA, Halton, York, Peel, Durham) deliveries, they will be delivered on your selected delivery date before 5 pm for businesses and before 7 pm for residences. We are not able to accommodate specific time requests unless coordinated with us directly and in which an additional delivery fee may apply. For non-local/non-flower deliveries, we will ship the item(s) within 3-5 business days and cannot guarantee a specific delivery date.
We use a private courier service for our local deliveries and they do not offer tracking at this time therefore we are unable to notify you once the flowers have been delivered. If you have any questions, you can reach out to us directly by email or phone.
We offer delivery 6 days/week, Monday-Saturday except for statutory holidays. We deliver on Sundays for floral holidays such as Mother’s Day.

The Wild Pansy is not responsible to get in touch with the recipient to coordinate a time when they will be home. We assume that most orders are a surprise and we require that the sender choose the delivery date for their recipient.
If the recipient isn’t available at the time the delivery is made, our courier will leave the order at their door (weather permitting) or with the reception/concierge (if available). We highly recommend providing the recipient’s phone number so our courier can inform them of the delivery.
In the case of severe weather such as temperatures below 3 degrees Celsius or above 25 degrees Celsius, flowers cannot be left exposed or outside. If the recipient is unavailable, the delivery will be rescheduled for next day and an additional delivery fee will apply.
We source our flowers from many growers and farms. We use as many Ontario grown flowers we can, but when the supply or variety is limited we supplement with imported blooms mainly from Holland and South America. Deanna has formed relationships with many small-scale Ontario flower farmers that grow the most stunning and unique varieties which become readily available between June-October.
Each flower has a different lifespan, but typically cut flowers last between 4-7 days. To extend the vase life of your cut flowers, see our Flower Care info here. Dried flowers can last for months, however sun and dust will affect their appearance which is why we recommend replaying your dried flowers every 6 months or so.
We offer a wide range of workshops including 1:1, small groups and corporate. All of our workshops are currently taking place virtually. Check back often to our Workshops pagefor our current offerings. If you're interested in a 1:1 lesson, reach out to Deanna directly at hello@thewildpansy.ca.
Weddings & Events
Below are some common questions about our wedding and event floral design services
We have a wedding minimum of $6,500 before taxes during peak wedding season May-October. Our average full service wedding floral designs range between $8-10,000 which includes florals for personals, ceremony, reception and candles plus tear down services. If you are looking for more of an “A la Carte” floral service, we request that you inquire no earlier than 2-3 months before your date to check our availability.
Our best designs stem from those weddings that are looking for all of the flowers from the bouquets and boutonnieres, to the memorable ceremony installations, the jaw-dropping centrepiece and table designs, and everything in between. If you are planning a smaller, more intimate wedding or elopement, we would still love to hear from you! We are available for consultations for full design services only.
Yes! We can travel within Ontario and the delivery + set up fee in your quote will be determined in part on the location of your wedding/event venue in proximity to our shop.
In addition to flowers, we offer arch, candle and vase rentals. If you are looking for something specifically and we don’t have it available, we would be happy to offer you suggestions of third party rental companies.
You can provide your own candles, however, we find that our rental fees are similar to the cost to purchase them from a third party supplier. We reuse our candle holders, thereby making it a more environmentally friendly option to rent from us. You may provide your own vases as long as they are approved by us first to ensure the size and shape are fitting to our aesthetic.
We require that The Wild Pansy maintains sole control over the complete floral design of each wedding/event we take on in order to maintain the integrity of our brand portfolio.
We charge a delivery and set up fee that varies depending on the extent of the floral design. For example, if there is an arch installation or different ceremony and reception locations, the fee will reflect the additional time and staff required to complete the set up on time. If there is any type of installation, delivery and set up will be added to your quote. If you want to pick up the flowers yourself, they must be picked up the day of your wedding and The Wild Pansy is not responsible for any damages, including dead or wilting flowers, once they have left our care. It is recommended you hire us to deliver and set up all the flowers to ensure that each bloom is perfectly in place and hydrated.
Please fill out our inquiry form and we will get back to you within 3-5 business days with general pricing. Include as much information as possible including number of each item and any images of inspiration. From there we will set up a time to chat on the phone or virtually to discuss everything in greater detail!
Yes! The initial consultation, which takes place over Zoom or phone, and final consultation for booked clients are free. We can’t wait to meet you! We do not book consultations for A la Carte clients at this time.
We only take a limited number of weddings each week, and we tend to book up quickly during peak months (May, June, August, September, October) therefore we recommend reaching out 6 months to 1 year ahead. To officially book with us, we require a 25% non-refundable deposit. We do not offer any soft holds at this time.
The types of flowers we use range in price and are masterfully selected to offer a unique combination of blooms that when designed together represent our specific style and maintain the integrity of our brand portfolio.
Absolutely. Changes can be made up to one month before your wedding/event date. Changes must be made in writing by email or in person during the final consultation. Upon signing the contract, you may not reduce the total amount agreed upon by more than 25%.
Shipping & Returns
Below are some common questions about shipping, returns, and exchanges
Customer satisfaction is of the utmost importance to us. All of our flowers, plants and gifts are carefully packaged to ensure they arrive in prime condition- the same way when they left our shop. Sometimes for reasons beyond our control, they may be damaged in transit.
If your order arrives and the flowers do not appear fresh or something is damaged, you must email us within 48 hours after the delivery and include the order number (if applicable), a description of the issue and a photo. If you are unable to provide a photo of the damaged order, unfortunately we are unable to issue any form of credit or replacement.
Due to the perishable nature of flowers and plants, we do not issue refunds or accept returns/exchanges.
All other merchandise with the exception of gift cards can be returned for exchange or store credit only within 1 week of purchase. The item(s) must be returned in their original condition with all packaging. Store credits expire after 6 months of the issue date.
Delivery fees are non-refundable and the customer is responsible for any return/replacement delivery fees.
