To send flowers to Manila from abroad, order online in USD and a florist inside Metro Manila prepares your bouquet fresh, delivering it in 1-2 business days — same-day is often possible before noon Manila time. Bouquets start near $55, with a flat $14.95 service fee no matter which country you order from.
When is flower-giving at its peak in Manila?
Valentine's Day is enormous here — Manila's February 14 traffic jams are the stuff of local legend, largely because half the city is moving roses around. Order several days early for that week. Mother's Day in May is the other giant. Then come the distinctly Filipino dates: Flores de Mayo, the month-long May tradition honoring the Virgin with flowers, and Undas at the start of November, when families gather at cemeteries and chrysanthemums are bought by the armful. Debuts, graduations and monthsaries — yes, monthsaries are taken seriously — keep florists busy year-round.
How does a local florist help in a city with Manila's traffic?
This is where ordering locally beats shipping by a mile. Manila already has a deep flower culture — the flower market in the Dangwa area of Sampaloc has supplied the capital for decades — and our partner florists buy fresh and deliver across town rather than across an ocean. A bouquet that only travels from Quezon City to Makati, instead of through days of cargo handling, arrives looking like it was just arranged, because it was. During the June-to-November rainy season, couriers plan around the afternoon downpours, too.
Which parts of Metro Manila do you deliver to?
Coverage spans the metro: Makati and BGC office towers where reception handles the handoff, condos in Ortigas and Quezon City, family homes in Pasig, Parañaque and Las Piñas, and addresses near the old walled city of Intramuros. Couriers routinely call or text the recipient to coordinate, which is simply how deliveries get done in this city. Your gift message is printed exactly as written — English, Tagalog, Taglish, whatever feels right — and you can place your order in English or Spanish.
