Send Flowers to Palmira, Colombia

Palmira is a city in the Valle del Cauca, about 30 kilometres from Cali, known as Colombia's agricultural capital for its sugarcane fields and research centres. Cali's international airport is in its municipality. Palmiranos living abroad send flowers to parents, grandparents and partners at home for birthdays, graduations and family losses.

Mother's Day in Colombia is the second Sunday of May and florists in Palmira are busiest then. The Fiesta Nacional de la Agricultura in the second half of the year brings family gatherings, and Amor y Amistad in September is a strong date for roses. When someone dies, friends send wreaths to the velación and accompany the novena.

Order before midnight Colombian time and delivery takes place the next day in Palmira. Include the recipient's phone number: the florist calls ahead and rearranges if nobody is home. Roses, lilies, mixed bouquets and plants are generally available; if a flower is not stocked locally, the florist suggests a close equivalent.
