Sending Christmas Flowers to Sri Lanka: Dates and Delivery
Yes, you can send Christmas flowers to Sri Lanka from the US, UK, Canada, Spain or anywhere else. Order on flowerssrilanka.com, pay in USD, and a local florist hand-delivers the bouquet to any address in the country. For Christmas 2026, the last order that can arrive before the holiday is placed by midnight Sri Lanka time on Wednesday, December 23, for Thursday, December 24 delivery.
Can I send Christmas flowers to Sri Lanka from abroad?
Yes. Orders are accepted from any country. You pay in USD with an international Visa, Mastercard or American Express card, or with PayPal. EUR and GBP prices are shown for reference only.
To place the order, you need the recipient's name, full street address and a phone number so the florist can coordinate the delivery. You can also write a preferred time in the delivery instructions. The florist tries to meet it, but exact time slots are not guaranteed, so tell the recipient to expect a visit during the day.
Coverage includes all of Sri Lanka, from Kandy to Colombo and the smaller towns in between.
Which Christmas dates have no deliveries in Sri Lanka?
Deliveries do not run on Sundays or on main public holidays. Christmas Day is one of those holidays. In 2026, these are the dates that matter:
| Date (2026) | Delivery that day? | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Sunday, December 20 | No | Sunday, no deliveries |
| Monday, December 21 | Yes | Recommended order day for a safe Christmas Eve arrival |
| Wednesday, December 23 | Yes | Last order day for Thursday delivery, if placed before midnight Sri Lanka time |
| Thursday, December 24 | Yes | Last delivery day before Christmas |
| Friday, December 25 | No | Christmas Day, main public holiday |
| Sunday, December 27 | No | Sunday, no deliveries |
The Sunday before Christmas and the Sunday after it are both closed, so a gap of several days can open up in the week. Plan the order around the Thursday delivery, not the holiday itself.
When is the last day to order Christmas flowers for delivery?
Delivery is next day for orders placed before midnight Sri Lanka time, so the last order that can arrive before Christmas is placed on Wednesday, December 23. Sri Lanka is 5 hours 30 minutes ahead of GMT, and about 10 hours 30 minutes ahead of New York in December. An order placed at 9 p.m. on Wednesday in New York is already Thursday in Colombo, so it misses the Thursday delivery.
The site advises ordering at least 2 to 3 days ahead for holiday dates. For a safe margin, order by Monday, December 21. That puts delivery on Tuesday, December 22, with a day to spare.
If the cutoff passes, an order placed before midnight Sri Lanka time on Friday, December 25 is a next-day delivery on Saturday, December 26, which is a regular delivery day.
Christmas flowers Sri Lanka: prices and the delivery fee
Bouquets start at USD 63.24, and the catalog goes up to USD 172.49. Every order carries a flat delivery fee of USD 14.95, so the cheapest bouquet costs USD 78.19 delivered. The catalog holds 152 bouquets, arrangements and plants.
Among the popular picks, First Bloom of Spring is listed at USD 68.99. Cakes, food hampers and other non-floral gifts are not sold, so flowers and the listed add-ons are your choices for a Christmas gift.
Which add-ons work well with a Christmas bouquet?
The add-ons are a box of chocolates, a glass vase, a plush teddy bear, a greeting card, balloons and a wine bottle. Chocolates are the closest thing to a sweet treat, since cakes are not sold. A glass vase lets the recipient display the flowers straight away.
A plush teddy bear suits a child in the family. A greeting card adds a second card beyond the free printed message. Choose the wine bottle only if you know the recipient drinks. When in doubt, a bouquet alone is the simplest gift.
How do I write a Christmas message that arrives with the flowers?
Every order includes a free printed card, so write the message at checkout. Keep it short and personal. Name the person, say what you are wishing them, and sign with your name. A line like "Merry Christmas, Amma. Thinking of you from London and looking forward to seeing you soon" works well because it is warm and specific.
Check the spelling of names and the wording before you pay. Family members in Sri Lanka will read the card as soon as the flowers arrive, so write it as if they will be reading it aloud.
To order, visit flowers on flowerssrilanka.com, choose a bouquet, add your card message and any add-ons, and enter the recipient's name, full address and phone number. Place the order by Monday, December 21 for the safest Christmas delivery. For a wider guide to sending from abroad, read how to send flowers to Sri Lanka from abroad.
