How Does Flower Delivery in Belgium Work?
abcFlora works with trusted local florists in Belgium's major cities and surrounding municipalities. When you place an order, the nearest available florist prepares a fresh arrangement and delivers it directly to the recipient's address. Delivery is available in Brussels, Antwerp, Ghent, Bruges, Liège, Namur, Leuven, Charleroi, and Mechelen. Next-day delivery is standard across Belgium; same-day delivery is available in select cities when ordered before noon local time. Belgium's relatively compact geography — the country spans just 30,528 km² — means that coverage is unusually strong compared to larger European countries. All bouquets are hand-delivered with a personalized card.

Belgium Flowers and Culture
Belgium has a long and distinguished horticultural history. The country is home to some of Europe's oldest botanical gardens, including Ghent's Botanical Garden (founded 1797) and the Nationale Plantentuin in Meise, which holds over 18,000 plant species. Flower cultivation in the Ghent region gave rise to Belgium's reputation as the "City of Flowers," a title reinforced every 5 years by the Ghent Floraliën, a world-famous flower show that has run since 1808. Azaleas are Belgium's most famous horticultural export — the Azalea of Ghent variety is cultivated across hundreds of hectares in East Flanders. Father's Day (third Sunday of June), Mother's Day (second Sunday of May), and All Saints' Day (November 1st) are the three peak gifting dates for Belgian florists. Belgians also gift flowers for namedays, which remain common in the Flemish community.
Most Popular Flowers in Belgium
Azalea (Azalea van Gent)
Belgium's most iconic horticultural product. The Ghent Azalea — a group of deciduous hybrid azaleas bred in East Flanders since the 1800s — is exported globally and is Belgium's top ornamental export. Potted azaleas are a classic Belgian gift for Mother's Day and housewarmings.
Rose
The most popular cut flower across Belgium year-round. Belgian florists stock long-stem red, white, and peach varieties. Red roses dominate Valentine's Day and romantic occasions; white roses are the choice for weddings and sympathy. The Dutch auction system at Aalsmeer (40 minutes from Belgium's border) ensures fresh supply every day.
Hydrangea
A Belgian garden staple and increasingly popular cut flower. Hydrangeas are grown across the Flemish countryside and appear in blue, white, pink, and green. They are particularly popular for wedding bouquets, table arrangements, and gifting from May through September.
Lily (Lelie)
Oriental and Asiatic lilies are widely cultivated in Belgium and the Netherlands. White Casablanca lilies are a formal occasion standard; tiger lilies and pink Stargazer varieties appear in everyday arrangements. Lilies are Belgium's third most purchased cut flower stem.
Peony (Pioen)
A seasonal spring and early summer favorite. Belgium has a small but dedicated peony cultivation sector, particularly in West Flanders. Soft pink, white, and burgundy peonies are popular for weddings and garden parties from May through June.
Belgian Begonia
Begonias were first introduced to Europe via Belgium in the 1860s and remain strongly associated with Belgian horticulture. Tuberous begonias in vivid orange, red, and yellow are a summer bedding plant favorite; the Ghent flower shows frequently feature elaborate begonia carpet displays.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you deliver flowers in both Flanders and Wallonia?
Yes. abcFlora delivers across both Dutch-speaking Flanders and French-speaking Wallonia, as well as Brussels and the German-speaking community in the east. Our florist network covers all three Belgian regions, and greeting cards can be written in English, Dutch, or French.
What flowers are appropriate for All Saints' Day in Belgium?
November 1st (All Saints' Day / Allerheiligen / La Toussaint) is the biggest single flower-buying day in Belgium. Chrysanthemums — particularly yellow and white varieties — are the traditional gravesite flower. Potted chrysanthemums and cut stem arrangements are both appropriate.
How early should I order for Mother's Day delivery in Belgium?
Belgian Mother's Day falls on the second Sunday of May. Florists are extremely busy that weekend. We strongly recommend ordering at least 3 days in advance to guarantee your preferred bouquet and delivery slot. For deliveries to Antwerp, Ghent, or Brussels, same-week ordering is usually sufficient if placed before Wednesday.
Can I include chocolates with my flower delivery?
Belgium is world-famous for its chocolate, and we understand why you'd want to combine both. abcFlora flower orders include a personalized card; for chocolate add-ons, check the available extras in our Belgium collection at the time of ordering, as availability varies by florist.
