Quick answer

Yes, you can order flowers for delivery in Johannesburg from anywhere in the world. Submit an order request online with the recipient's details, pay via card or an international-friendly method, and we handle delivery locally.

Living abroad doesn't mean you have to miss out on marking the occasions that matter to family back home. Ordering flowers for delivery in Johannesburg from overseas is more straightforward than many expats expect.

How ordering from overseas works

You can submit an order request from anywhere, at any time, through our website. Because we confirm the price and details with you before charging anything, time zone differences aren't a problem — we'll communicate by email or WhatsApp at a time that works for you.

Paying from abroad

We accept international card payments, so paying from outside South Africa is generally no different to paying locally. Let us know if you have a specific payment method preference and we will advise what is available.

Planning around time zones and occasions

It's worth placing your order a few days ahead of the occasion where your schedule allows, since coordinating final details across time zones can take slightly longer than a local order. For recurring dates — a parent's birthday, an anniversary — some expats find it helpful to set a calendar reminder a week ahead.

A small gesture that means a lot

Distance makes it harder to be there for the moments that matter, but a thoughtful, well-timed delivery is one of the most tangible ways to show you're thinking of someone back home.

Frequently asked questions

Can I order and pay in a foreign currency?

Our pricing is in South African Rand, but most international cards can be charged in Rand and converted automatically by your bank. Contact us if you have questions about your specific payment method.

How far ahead should I order if I live overseas?

A few days ahead is ideal, mainly to allow time for confirming details across time zones, though we can often accommodate shorter notice as well — just get in touch as soon as you can.
