01Ordering from South Africa · Delivered in Los Angeles
Ordering from South Africa for someone in Los Angeles works exactly as it does for a neighbour down the street. The bouquet is designed in a Los Angeles studio on the morning it goes out, then driven to the recipient — same-day when your order lands before 11 a.m. Pacific. You are charged in US dollars, and your recipient pays nothing on arrival — no customs, no duty, no import fee.

Checkout, step by step
South Africa's four-digit postal code, suburb and city fill the billing address; rand convert on the card. The country keeps one clock all year, nine hours ahead of Los Angeles in the northern summer — the 11 a.m. Pacific cutoff is 8 p.m. in Johannesburg and Cape Town. English, Afrikaans or Zulu print on the card as typed.
Anyone with a South African billing address can order. Checkout keeps two addresses apart: yours — street address, suburb, city and postal code — is the billing address, and theirs is the delivery address. Only the recipient's address decides the delivery date, the charge and whether same-day is possible.
Your own details, postal code and all, matching the statement.
Full Los Angeles-area address with ZIP, plus a phone the courier can reach.
The day the flowers should arrive (Los Angeles time) and the greeting — neither can be skipped.
Availability by ZIP
Type the recipient's ZIP — five digits, Los Angeles area — and the calendar that opens lists every delivery day on offer right now. The exact charge is fixed at checkout.
Paying
Every price on the site is in US dollars and the charge to your card is in US dollars. California sales tax and the address-specific delivery charge are shown before you pay. Your bank or card issuer converts the USD total to South African rand at its own exchange rate and may add its own fee — the site does not quote a ZAR total. Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, Diners Club and JCB, plus Apple Pay and Google Pay, are the payment marks shown at checkout; all accept South African billing addresses.
Timing
The same-day window closes at 11:00 a.m. in Los Angeles — 8:00 pm GMT+2 in South Africa. Miss it and the earliest slot the checker will show is tomorrow's; the recipient's ZIP also has to be one that offers same-day. These conversions were worked out for 2026-09-12 with daylight saving applied where it applies; the live line underneath reads your own device.
Order by 11:00 a.m. Pacific Time for same-day delivery in Los Angeles.

The greeting
No arrangement leaves without a card, and the product page collects the text first — spelling, punctuation and accents as entered. The personal part goes there, not in the address boxes.
Relevant languages: English, Afrikaans, Zulu; the card prints Latin characters, as used in English. Billing, name and delivery-address fields have been tested with Latin characters only.
What people send to Los Angeles
South African orders are a small group in our history; the gifts listed are Los Angeles's own favourites.
Champagne and wine gifts are for recipients 21+ — California's legal drinking age. Photo ID is checked at the door, and the gift goes back if no one of age can sign for it.
After checkout
Order tracking needs the purchasing email and the recipient's ZIP; freshly placed orders register after a few minutes.
Have the order number handy and get in touch; the desk is staffed 8:00 a.m.–8:00 p.m. Eastern, which is South Africa: 2:00 pm–2:00 am GMT+2 (crosses midnight).
Anything containing champagne, wine or spirits is handed to a grown adult who is present, as California and federal rules require; ID can be requested at the door. Recipients must be 21+ (the legal drinking age in California); the driver checks photo ID at the door.
Somewhere specific?
Choose the city the flowers are going to; its page carries the timing that applies there and the arrangements sent there most often.
Before you ask
Questions about ordering or about where the flowers are going are answered by real people.
Write to Los Angeles Blooms ↗Yes, any card with a mark from the payment section, registered to a South Africa address. Billing is in dollars; the South African rand equivalent is fixed by your card issuer's exchange rate, and an issuer fee is possible.
Both, in different places: your postal code in your billing address, the recipient's five-digit ZIP code in the delivery address and in the checker on this page.
It does. Text in Latin characters, as used in English is printed just as you enter it, accents and all — on the card, not in an address field.
You may — those pairings are listed on the site. Handover follows California and federal law: an adult recipient, possible ID checks and any other conditions required, so send it to someone who can accept it themselves.
Nothing at all. Because the arrangement is made and delivered inside Los Angeles it never passes through customs, so no duty or import fee exists, and the delivery cost is yours, shown before payment.
Yes. Enter the recipient's ZIP code in the checker, then pick any available date on the product page. Choose the Los Angeles date the flowers should arrive, not your own calendar date.
