Giving flowers

Mourning

Flowers are a personal and heartfelt way to express your condolences. They show that your thoughts are with the bereaved. Together with a personal message of sympathy, this is a very beautiful gesture during a difficult time.

Funeral floristry:

Our individually crafted funeral wreaths and hearts are a dignified expression of connection and farewell. With great care and sensitivity, we create unique floral wreaths that express your personal wishes and feelings in a special way.
With or without a mourning ribbon.

Showing sympathy when words fail

After a bereavement, it is difficult to find the right words. Flowers say what can hardly be put into words: I am thinking of you, you are not alone. We distinguish between two types of funeral flowers: bouquets that you send to the bereaved family at home, and funeral wreaths for the memorial service.

Condolence flowers for the bereaved family

A bouquet sent to the home is a personal gesture to those left behind. You may send it in the days following the bereavement, or deliberately some weeks later, when things grow quieter and expressions of sympathy fade. It is precisely then that a gesture is especially appreciated. Our couriers hand over the flowers personally, with your card.

Funeral wreaths and funeral hearts for the memorial service

For the memorial service, funeral wreaths and funeral hearts are the traditional final farewell. We make them individually and with great care according to your wishes, with or without a mourning ribbon. Enquire about a funeral wreath here. Ready-made wreaths, for example our hydrangea wreaths, can be found under Wreaths.

Wreaths are delivered to the location of the memorial service, throughout the whole of Switzerland. Because they are made by hand, we require at least two to three days' lead time. We therefore recommend ordering as soon as the date and location of the memorial service have been confirmed.

Which flowers are suitable for mourning?

There are no fixed rules; a calm, simple bouquet is always appropriate. White represents sympathy, dignity and hope, whilst muted colours have a restrained effect. The following have proven popular:

  • White roses: mourning and quiet connection. Red roses are rather reserved for the closest family circle. White flowers
  • Lilies: dignity and hope, also suitable for colleagues, neighbours and acquaintances. Lilies
  • Calla: simple and elegant, a sign of appreciation. Calla
  • Chrysanthemums: in Central Europe, the classic flower of mourning. Chrysanthemums
  • Hydrangeas: lush and calm, beautiful in blue or white as well. Hydrangeas

Our bouquets are Mono-Bouquets: a single variety of flower in one colour, without filler greenery. In this way, each flower shows its natural beauty, and the bouquet stays fresh for longer. In times of mourning in particular, this has a calm and dignified effect.

Having funeral flowers delivered

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 onwards. 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 personally, in gift wrapping with a bow. To the rest of Switzerland, 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 will receive a photo of the delivered flowers.
