Send Flowers to Buenaventura, Colombia

Buenaventura is Colombia's main Pacific port, in the Valle del Cauca about three hours from Cali, a rainy city around a deep bay and the heart of Afro-Colombian Pacific culture. Many families have relatives abroad who send flowers for a mother's birthday, a new baby or the death of a loved one.

Colombia's Día de la Madre on the second Sunday of May is the main flower date in Buenaventura. The Festival Folclórico del Pacífico in August fills the city with music and family visits, and Amor y Amistad in September is popular for roses. Funerals on the Pacific coast are deeply felt community events, and flowers sent to the velación are appreciated.

Order before midnight local time for next-day delivery in Buenaventura. The recipient's phone number is required so the florist can call ahead and reschedule if nobody is home. Roses, lilies, mixed bouquets and plants are usually available; in the humid climate the florist may propose a close equivalent if a particular flower is not stocked.
