Order before 14:00 local time and the flowers can be in their hands the same day, made up and delivered by a florist in their own town. You are in one country, they are in another, and the distance is exactly why the flowers matter. Nothing about it reaches your end: sending flowers to Greece takes a few minutes online, you pay in the currency you already hold, and the card message you type at checkout travels with the bouquet, free and exactly as you typed it.
Pick the arrangement, add your message, and choose the day it should arrive - the calendar at checkout offers only the dates a florist can actually meet, so the date you select is the date they get flowers.

Six delivery days a week means the gesture can land on the day it belongs to: the name day itself, the morning of the anniversary, the afternoon someone gets home from hospital. An order that misses the day's run is delivered on the next available date, which you pick yourself at checkout. What goes into the bouquet follows the market: bouquets are built from the freshest stems of the day, and an unavailable flower is replaced with one of equal or greater value in the same style, so the arrangement keeps the shape and the colour you chose.
Give the complete address: the street and number, then the five-digit postcode, usually written with a space after the third digit - 105 58 - plus a phone number for the recipient. The phone number is the part senders leave out most often, and it is the one the florist uses to confirm availability and pin down the exact address before the driver sets off. If the flowers are going to an apartment, add the door code at checkout too; a locked street door is the most common reason a delivery waits.
Over 300 flower arrangements are ready to send, most of them in the loose, colourful Mediterranean shape local florists work in, hand-tied and wrapped in cellophane or paper with ribbon, with eucalyptus, myrtle, olive branches, ruscus or fern filling out the green. Over 20 plants sit alongside them for a gift that is still there in a year. Then there is the morning-after gesture, when last night mattered and you would rather say so early than explain it later - a small hand-tied bouquet does that better than a message. Gift Baskets, Chocolates and Preserved Roses round out what you can send.
Carnations, roses, gerberas, chrysanthemums and gladioli are grown commercially in the country, with production concentrated in Attica - around Marathon and Markopoulo - as well as the Peloponnese, Crete and Ioannina. Production tends to run strong from spring through autumn, with imports filling the winter gaps, and much of the trade passes through the Central Flower Market of Athens in Nea Ionia. Chrysanthemums are closely tied to mourning and are usually kept out of celebratory bouquets; with white lilies they are the conventional choice for funeral tributes, and large wreaths (stefania) are sent to be displayed at the church and the grave. For a celebration, an odd number of stems is the safer count, since even numbers are associated with funerals.
A name day (Giorti) often matters more than a birthday: the date is fixed by the Orthodox saints' calendar, tied to the person's given name, and flowers commonly take the place of the birthday gift. The Assumption of the Virgin Mary (Dekapentavgoustos), on August 15, is also the name day of everyone called Maria. At Orthodox Easter (Pascha), whose date follows the Orthodox liturgical calendar and usually falls in April, churches and the Epitaphios - the flower-covered bier - are decorated on Good Friday. Mother's Day, the second Sunday of May, and Valentine's Day on February 14 are the exception to the usual schedule: florists open for the big flower days, so your order can arrive even when the date falls on a Sunday. Order at least 48 hours ahead.
Someone mid-journey is close to unreachable. An airport gate, a railway platform, a cruise terminal: there is no door to knock on and nobody to sign for the flowers. Send to their hotel, their office or their home instead, timed for after they arrive, so the bouquet is waiting when they put their bag down. If the recipient is out when the florist calls, they will usually phone to arrange a time or come back another day.
Sending from another country changes nothing at your end: the order goes in online, and the arrangement is made and delivered locally by a florist who knows the streets. You pay in the currency you hold, settled online as you order. It is the ordinary way this works, incidentally, and not the exception - most orders here come from someone abroad. Choose your bouquet and the date it should arrive, and the rest happens where they live.
Yes - order before 14:00 local time and your flowers can be delivered the same day. Orders placed after the cutoff are delivered on the next available day you choose at checkout.
Yes. You can pick any future delivery date at checkout, which is the safest option around busy periods, and the calendar only shows dates that are genuinely available.
You can request a preferred time slot, but exact times cannot be guaranteed - deliveries follow the local florist's routes and workload for the day. The date you select is always honoured.
Acceptance depends on the hospital and ward - check before ordering; otherwise delivery goes to reception. Use the hospital's own city and full address, with the patient's full name and, where possible, the ward or room.
Yes. Hotel receptions ask for the reservation name and room number, so add the guest's full name and, if you can, their arrival date or booking reference.
Yes - include the company name and, if you know it, the floor or department, and the delivery goes to reception. Choose a day the recipient is at work, since deliveries arrive in office hours.
Wreaths and formal funeral pieces need 24-48 hours' notice. Order as early as you can and give the church or the home address in full, with a phone number the florist can call.
