Local Florists in Netherlands
The Netherlands is the flower capital of the world — home to the iconic Keukenhof gardens, the famous Aalsmeer Flower Auction (the world's largest flower auction by turnover), and vast tulip fields that paint the Dutch countryside in breathtaking colors every spring. Sending flowers to the Netherlands with abcFlora is a pleasure: simply place your order in English and our local Dutch florist partners will craft a beautiful arrangement using some of the world's freshest and most abundant blooms, delivered promptly to any address in the country.
The Dutch have a centuries-old love affair with flowers that began with the famous Tulip Mania of the 17th century and continues to define Dutch culture and commerce today. abcFlora works with skilled local florists across the Netherlands who share this deep passion for floristry. Whether you're sending a tulip bouquet to Amsterdam or a rose arrangement to Rotterdam, your flowers will be crafted by professionals who truly understand their art.
Celebrate Occasions by Sending Flowers to Netherlands
King's Day (Koningsdag) on April 27th is the Netherlands' most exuberant national celebration — the entire country turns orange in honour of the Royal House of Orange-Nassau, with street parties, flea markets, and flowers everywhere. This is a wonderful occasion to send an orange-themed bouquet to your Dutch friends or family. Liberation Day (May 5th), celebrating the end of WWII occupation, is another important national moment where flowers honor both freedom and remembrance.
Tulip season (March through May) is a magical time in the Netherlands, when fields of tulips, daffodils, and hyacinths create one of the world's most spectacular natural spectacles. Sending tulips to someone in the Netherlands during this season is a celebration of Dutch identity. Mother's Day (second Sunday of May), Valentine's Day, and birthdays are widely observed with flowers. The Dutch also have a strong tradition of bringing flowers as a gift when visiting someone's home — a custom abcFlora can help you honor from anywhere in the world.
The Best Netherlands Flower Delivery Service
To Which Dutch Cities Can I Send Flowers?
abcFlora delivers flowers throughout the Netherlands, including Amsterdam, the political capital The Hague (Den Haag), the port city of Rotterdam, the university city of Utrecht, the southern capital of Eindhoven, the historic city of Groningen, Maastricht in the far south, and Leiden — famous for its tulip connection to Japan. We cover all Dutch provinces and municipalities.
Which are the Most Popular Flowers in Netherlands?
The tulip is the Netherlands' most iconic flower, and a national symbol recognized worldwide. The Netherlands grows billions of tulip bulbs every year and exports them globally. Hyacinths, daffodils, and crocuses are other beloved Dutch spring flowers. Roses and sunflowers are popular year-round gifting choices. The Aalsmeer Flower Auction handles over 20 million flowers and plants per day, meaning Dutch florists have access to an unparalleled variety of fresh blooms from around the world.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I order Dutch tulips to be delivered within the Netherlands?
Absolutely! Tulips are the most iconic Dutch flower and widely available through our local florist partners, especially during spring (March–May). Year-round tulip availability is excellent in the Netherlands thanks to the massive Aalsmeer flower market, which handles fresh Dutch-grown tulips throughout the year.
What language should I write the card message in for the Netherlands?
Dutch (Nederlands) is the official language, and a card in Dutch is always appreciated. However, the Dutch are famous for their excellent English — the Netherlands consistently ranks first in the world for non-native English proficiency. Your English card message will be perfectly understood by any Dutch recipient.
What is Keukenhof and is it worth mentioning in a card?
Keukenhof, near Lisse, is one of the world's largest flower gardens, covering 32 hectares with over 7 million bulbs planted each year. It's open from mid-March to mid-May and is a source of enormous national pride. Referencing Keukenhof in a card — 'Wishing you a garden as beautiful as Keukenhof' — would delight any Dutch flower lover.
What flowers should I send for King's Day (Koningsdag) in the Netherlands?
For King's Day (April 27th), an orange-themed bouquet is the perfect choice — orange is the national color of the Netherlands and the color of the Royal House. Think orange tulips, orange roses, orange gerberas, and marigolds. An all-orange bouquet is a wonderful, festive way to celebrate this joyful Dutch national holiday.
