Fast fresh flower delivery in Colombia. We send flowers by hand in Bogotá and 41 cities in Colombia

While the capital of Columbia may be Bogotá, it is the city of Medellin that hosts the most important social event of the year, The Festival of Flowers. One of the most eagerly awaited flower festivals, the highlight for many festival growers, is the parade of silletas. These small wooden, chair-like frames were originally used to carry infants and small children, but now local farmers and artisans fill the silletas with hundreds of colorful native blooms. These large, colorful arrangements are normally filled with hundreds of chrysanthemums, roses, bright cheerful sunflowers, and large round agapanthuses. Orchids are always popular not only in the colorful arrangements but also as the national flower. Columbian naturalist Jose Jeronimo Triana chose the Cattleya orchid as the national flower, describing its striking bloom as the “most beautiful” in the world. Other common and popular flowers among the Colombian people include tall gladiola spikes, lilies , and pinocchios. Gladiolas and chrysanthemums can also be found gaily decorating the headstones in many of the country’s cemeteries. Like most other countries, Valentine’s Day is an important holiday for Columbia’s lovers, and roses are still the most popular choice on this romantic holiday.
