Important Ordering Information: While we are often filling last minute requests, you can order our freeze dried rose petals up to a year in advance. Orders placed in advance are entered into our reservation system where we schedule a shipping date based on your occasion date and zip code. Your petals typically ship about 3 weeks before your event for the best quality, while ordering in advance guarantees availability of your color and quantity. If you need them sooner or have any special requirements, please use the Special Instructions area on the Checkout page. You can expect freeze dried rose petals to arrive approximately 2 weeks prior to your event date. For events less than 2 weeks away, we typically ship within 1 business day. Please note that if you are paying by credit card, we do not charge your card until the petals ship.
There are approximately 20 to 25 freeze dried rose petals per cup, but the actual quantity in a case varies based on the size of the petals. To order multiple case sizes, enter the quantity of one size, add it to the cart, then click on "continue shopping" until you have ordered all of your cases. The shipping charge will be displayed once you have items in your cart. The rose petals typically do not retain their fragrance after the freeze drying process, but we can add natural rose scent back to them, just indicate "Scented" in the Special Instructions on checkout. Freeze dried rose petals are a natural product, so variations in color and size can be expected.

Pathway Petals are an assortment of Premium and Specialty color petals which are less than perfect. They may be cracked, small, or have color variations. While they are not recommended for table decoration or uses where they are closely observed, they are an excellent value for pathways, bathtubs, bedrooms, and more. We are unable to fill specific color requests for Pathway Petals as they are premixed assortments, however, we will take your color blend suggestions for the 64 cups size and fill your order as close as possible. Colors may be similar to those listed above under Seasonal Blends.
How to soften Freeze Dried Rose Petals The
easiest way to soften the petals is to place them in a bathroom while taking a
shower. While they will not become as soft as a fresh petal, they will absorb the steam and become softer and more
pliable. This can also brighten the color of darker petals. The
longer the freeze dried rose petals are exposed to the moisture, the softer they
will get. If the humidity in the air is normal or high, this procedure can be done within a few days before the event to
achieve your desired effect. If the air is dry, the petals may not soften
or will quickly dry out again. We recommend shipping your petals with 2 to 4 weeks before
your event for the best quality. You can order as soon as you know your
colors and quantity. We will contact you after you place your order to
determine an appropriate shipping date. Don't purchase freeze dried petals months ahead of time just because they are on sale. Many colors
will fade over time, especially when exposed to light and humidity. Click here for samples of our Freeze Dried Rose Petals
