Flower Delivery Philippines
Local Florists in Philippines
The Philippines is a vibrant archipelago of over 7,000 islands, known for its warm, hospitable people, vibrant festivals, and a deep Catholic heritage that permeates every celebration with color, devotion, and flowers. With abcFlora, you can send a beautiful bouquet to Manila, Cebu, Davao, or anywhere in the Philippines through a simple English-language ordering process. Our local Filipino florist partners will craft a fresh, meaningful arrangement and deliver it directly to your recipient's address.
Filipinos are famously warm and generous, and flower gifting is a meaningful part of their expressive culture. From elaborate floral displays at fiestas to simple romantic gestures on Valentine's Day, flowers communicate love and respect in the Filipino way. abcFlora makes it easy to participate in these moments from anywhere in the world, working with skilled local florists who understand the Philippines' diverse cultural traditions.
Celebrate Occasions by Sending Flowers to Philippines
The Philippines' most spectacular floral celebration is the Pahiyas Festival in Lucban, Quezon, held on May 15th (St. Isidore's Day). Homes are elaborately decorated with colorful kiping (leaf-shaped wafers), vegetables, fruits, and flowers in a magnificent display of thanksgiving. The Panagbenga Festival (Flower Festival) in Baguio City in February is another iconic floral occasion, featuring street floats completely covered in fresh highland flowers.
Valentine's Day is enormously popular in the Philippines — Filipinos are among the most enthusiastic Valentine's celebrators in Asia, and florists see their biggest day of the year on February 14th. Mother's Day (second Sunday of May) is another major flower-gifting occasion. All Saints' Day (November 1st) and All Souls' Day (November 2nd) see Filipino families bring flowers to cemeteries in remembrance. The Philippine Christmas season — the world's longest, beginning in September — is another key occasion for floral gifts.
The Best Philippines Flower Delivery Service
To Which Philippine Cities Can I Send Flowers?
abcFlora delivers flowers throughout the Philippines, including the capital Manila (and Metro Manila areas like Quezon City, Makati, Taguig, and Pasig), the Visayas hub of Cebu City, the Mindanao capital of Davao City, the highland city of Baguio (the City of Flowers), the Iloilo City in the Western Visayas, and the Bacolod City known as the City of Smiles. We cover major cities across all Philippine island groups.
Which are the Most Popular Flowers in Philippines?
The Sampaguita (Jasminum sambac) is the Philippines' national flower — a small, intensely fragrant white jasmine that is woven into garlands and offered in churches. It is deeply associated with purity, devotion, and Filipino identity. Waling-waling (Vanda sanderiana), a spectacular orchid endemic to Mindanao, is called the 'Queen of Philippine Orchids.' Roses, sunflowers, carnations, and chrysanthemums are popular for everyday gifting. Baguio roses — grown in the cool Benguet highlands — are particularly prized for their freshness and vibrant colors.
How We at abcFlora Handle Your Philippine Delivery
We do not use a simple checklist, instead we manage the whole order for you. Here is how we get your flowers to a home in the Philippines:
When you place your order in English, our team processes it and makes sure all address details are clear for the local florist. English is co-official in the Philippines, so communication is seamless.
We send the order details to a partner florist located in the same city as your recipient. We do not ship flowers in a box from another country.
The local florist builds the bouquet using fresh locally grown and market-supplied blooms, including the Philippines' beautiful highland flowers.
The florist delivers the flowers directly to the address, ensuring they arrive fresh and on time.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is Valentine's Day such a big occasion for flowers in the Philippines?
Filipinos are among the world's most romantic people, and Valentine's Day is taken very seriously. Mass weddings are held in public spaces, couples exchange flowers and gifts, and florists see their biggest sales day of the year. The Philippines also has a very young population with a strong gifting culture, making February 14th the peak flower delivery day by a wide margin.
Can you deliver flowers to provinces and islands outside Manila?
We deliver to major cities across the Philippine islands, including Cebu, Davao, Iloilo, Cagayan de Oro, and others. For very remote provincial areas or small island communities without established florist infrastructure, delivery may be limited. We recommend confirming for addresses outside major metropolitan areas.
What language should I write the card message in for the Philippines?
Filipino (Tagalog) and English are both official languages of the Philippines. English is widely spoken and written across the country. A card in English is completely natural and well understood. For a more personal touch, you could add a Filipino phrase — 'Mahal kita' (I love you) or 'Maligayang kaarawan' (Happy Birthday) — to delight your recipient.
What is Sampaguita and can I include it in a Philippine bouquet?
Sampaguita (Jasminum sambac) is the Philippines' beloved national flower — small, pure white, and intensely fragrant. It is commonly sold as garlands strung on thread (sampagang-sampaga) at church entrances and markets. While not always arranged as cut flower stems in formal bouquets, local Filipino florists can often incorporate sampaguita or similar jasmine varieties as a fragrant accent to your arrangement.
Send flowers to the Philippines has never been as easy as with abcFlora. Choose from fragrant sampaguita, beautiful Baguio roses, tropical bouquets and more — all delivered fresh by local Filipino florists!
