Why use an order form
A structured order captures cultivar, container size, price point, and quantity before staff pull stock.
Group annuals, perennials, shrubs, trees, and houseplants so customers avoid ambiguous names.
Pair each variety with a pot, flat, grade, or height and a numeric quantity staff can pick.
Capture pickup, delivery, access, substitution, and special-request details with the ordered plants.
Built for plant sellers
Choose a pattern, then add your catalog and fulfillment rules.
Reserve seasonal plants by container size and pickup window.
Organize advance sale orders by pickup group.
Capture projects, plant specifications, bulk quantities, and delivery needs.
Combine plants, pots, recipient details, gift messages, and delivery dates.
Order setup
Provide catalog details, then edit the result around stock checks and fulfillment.
Name your plant groups, varieties, sizes, add-ons, and customer type.
Add current items, quantity units, care or site notes, and your availability-review message.
Show pickup windows for pickup; request address, access, date, and zone for delivery.
Publish, notify staff, and send structured responses into your stock-review workflow.
Form vs message vs spreadsheet
A generated form prevents email and social orders from omitting size, quantity, or delivery details.
Field guide
Distinguish each product and give staff enough detail to check stock and fulfillment.
Customer details
Collect purchaser contact details. For gifts or projects, distinguish the buyer from the recipient or site contact.
Plant identification
Use common and cultivar names. Organize long lists by plant type, light needs, or season.
Size & quantity
Tie every quantity to a container, height, grade, pack, or flat so customer and staff interpret it alike.
Availability & substitutions
Ask whether another color, cultivar, or size is acceptable, and state that staff review stock before confirmation.
Pickup & delivery
Pickup needs a location and window. Delivery needs an address, date, access instructions, and receiving contact.
Order review
Include customer notes and an order summary, then route the response for stock, pricing, and fulfillment review.

It lets customers choose plants, varieties, sizes, and quantities and provide fulfillment details. Nursery staff receive one structured request to check against current stock.
Include contact details, exact variety, container or grade, quantity, substitution preference, fulfillment method, requested date, and notes. Wholesale orders may need company, project, purchase reference, site contact, and unloading details.
Give each variety and size a clear option. Pair common and cultivar names when useful, connect quantity to the chosen pot, flat, height, or grade, and group long catalogs into sections.
Yes. Repeat variety, size, and quantity fields for line items. For a short seasonal list, place quantity beside each plant; for a larger catalog, group specific choices by category.
Ask whether cultivar, color, size, or price may change and how to contact the customer for approval. Staff can review the request against stock before confirming what will be supplied.
Yes. Use conditional paths: pickup asks for location and window; delivery asks for address, date, phone, access, and unloading notes. Offer only the locations and zones you serve.
