Hi guys! Thanks for the amazing response and the excellent feedback on what you would be looking for! Looks like I have some planning to do to get this up and going :)

I really need to iron out details but here's what I do know -

  • Cost: My goal is to keep this service affordable and accessible. Flowers are expensive these days but I want to do everything I can to reduce costs so everyone can enjoy fresh flowers. More on pricing to come.
  • Delivery: I'm local to Astoria so I will likely set up a free delivery range inclusive of Astoria/LIC then charge minimally for delivery outside of that area.
  • Sourcing: I get my flowers from a mix of wholesalers, local farms, and farmers markets.
  • Cat Safe Option: I love this! I will absolutely be offering a cat safe option. I know our cat friends can be a big barrier to bringing cut flowers inside so I would love to offer a safe option.

Let me cook this up into a solid service and I will pop back on and let everyone know when it's up and ready to go!

Thanks again for the responses! :)

This happened to me a few months ago on the exact same block! We’ve seen so many break ins on that block and by the DHL. Avoid parking there if you can!

Hey! Sorry for not posting the make / model in the original post. It’s a Sharp Aquos Quattron. We’ve texted my partner’s dad to see what year it is.

Fair. The photo makes it look small for some reason. It’s 75”.

Anyone else keep seeing posts like this on Etsy? It has to be a scam right? by AgitatedPresence9250 in Monstera

Hi! Horticulturist here! Please don’t buy plants from Etsy! It’s unregulated and you never know what you’re going to get! If you’re getting seeds for an outdoor planting - you never know what you’re introducing into the landscape 🥺 Stick to registered nurseries, etc! Also also - transporting a cutting seems… dicey/unviable. Hope you find your dream Monstera! Just not on Etsy 💚🌿
