Who loves having fresh flowers in the house? We do! While it's always a good idea to keep flowers where pets can't consume them, it's important to be mindful of which flowers can be harmful to your pets. You can also notify your florist of pets in the house when ordering. We care about our customers and want their pets to be safe!

This is not a complete list of flowers that can be harmful, but includes some of the more commonly used florist flowers. Flowers can lift your day and brighten your space.
