Yakima County, WA Flowers Delivered

Towns Across a Wide Valley

Yakima County is 4,295 square miles, the largest delivery area in eastern Washington, and twenty-one towns keep their own pages under it. An order to Selah and an order to Mabton are an hour apart before anyone knocks on a door.

Twenty-two ZIP codes sit under the county, from 98902 in the city out to 98944 at Sunnyside. Putting the right one on the order is the difference between an afternoon arrival and a second attempt the following day.

The city of Yakima keeps a separate page of its own for addresses inside the city, while this page collects the whole county around it. Both are real pages and they are not duplicates of each other.

Pick a Size for Zillah

Pick low and wide for a house at Zillah and keep the tall shapes for a room with a floor corner to spare. Most front rooms in the smaller towns here have one good surface, and an oversized piece spends its first evening being moved.

Yakima Valley Memorial takes flowers at a desk rather than at the bedside, so a compact arrangement in 98902 gets to the patient faster than a standing one. Add the room name to the order and it does not wait at the counter.

The catalog shows every design at the size it is sold in, which is the thing worth checking before ordering for a room nobody at the sending end has seen. A piece meant for a desk at Union Gap and a piece meant for a hall at Wapato are not the same order, and the size column is where that gets settled.

Seasonal Stems and What Changes

Flower types may be substituted for what a florist near the recipient actually has that morning, and across a valley this size that varies week to week. The type of arrangement never changes: the size, the shape and the value all hold where they were set.

A photo of the finished arrangement is sent once it has been made, at no extra charge, so a sender in another state sees the piece that reached a Toppenish or Wapato door instead of comparing it to a catalog image in their head.

If the Yakima County photo shows something wrong, three days is the window. Flowers will not wait, and a summer afternoon in Yakima County is hard on an arrangement that sat on a porch. A replacement, a refund or a partial credit follow from there.

A Birthday in Sunnyside or Toppenish

Order before 1 PM Pacific time for same-day flower delivery anywhere in Yakima County, and after that hour the order moves to the next working day. Astria Sunnyside Hospital is a common afternoon address, and the earlier hour helps there most of all.

Flower delivery runs Monday through Saturday across all twenty-one towns, Sunday delivery is not available, and arrivals fall between 9 AM and 7 PM. A Sunday birthday at Toppenish is therefore a Saturday delivery, planned rather than hoped for.

Orders also run north into Kittitas County, WA, where the pages change but the hour does not. The hour holds whether the order comes from a WA address an hour away or from three time zones east, and neither one buys a Sunday. All twenty-one town pages sit under this one, and this one sits on the Washington county index.
