Flowers are the finest birthday greeting
A phone call is soon over, but a bouquet remains: it stands on the table for days and, with every glance, reminds the recipient that someone was thinking of them on this day. This is why flowers are so popular for birthdays, especially when you cannot call by in person. You choose the bouquet, write your good wishes on the card, and we deliver both fresh to the door, at home or at the office, anywhere in Switzerland.
Which flowers suit a birthday?
The loveliest choice is the birthday person's favourite flowers or favourite colour. If you do not know them, take your lead from the season or from the effect you wish to create:
- Roses: the classic choice for those close to you. For a milestone birthday, the number suits: 30, 40 or 50 roses.
- Tulips and ranunculus: light and cheerful, for birthdays in winter and spring. Tulips · Ranunculus
- Peonies: lavish and fragrant, the grand gesture for those born in May and June. Peonies
- Sunflowers and gerbera: pure joie de vivre in summer. Sunflowers · Gerbera
- Hydrangeas and amaryllis: stately and long-lasting, for autumn and winter. Hydrangeas · Amaryllis
Our bouquets are Mono-Bouquets: one type of flower in one colour, without filler greenery. In this way each flower shows its natural beauty, and the bouquet stays fresh for longer. If you would rather not choose, send the surprise bouquet: our florists compose it from the finest flowers of the day.
You decide the delivery day, even if the birthday falls on a Sunday
You choose the day on which the flowers should arrive, and you can order weeks in advance. We buy the flowers fresh from the grower only for your delivery date. In this way you do not forget any birthday, and the flowers are still fresh daily.
We deliver from Monday to Saturday. If the birthday falls on a Sunday, have the flowers delivered on the Saturday or a few days earlier, with a note on the card such as «For your birthday on Sunday». Because our flowers are fresh daily and often not yet fully open, they open over the following days and stand in full bloom on the birthday.
Having birthday flowers delivered: how it works
You choose the delivery day yourself, days or weeks in advance. From the Express selection we deliver the next day if you order by midnight; all other flowers from the day after tomorrow. Delivery takes place from Monday to Saturday.
In the region from Basel to Winterthur and Lucerne and all places in between our own couriers hand over the flowers in person, in gift wrapping with a bow. To the rest of Switzerland our partners deliver in a flower box with a water supply. Delivery costs a flat rate of CHF 5, and is free from two bouquets. After the handover you receive a photo of the delivered flowers.
