Apr 16, 2025

When time is tight but your sentiment runs deep, choosing the right flowers for same-day delivery matters. Not all blooms are suited for the rush — some wilt quickly, while others thrive beautifully en route. Here’s your guide to the best flowers to send in Kenya when you need your bouquet delivered today.

Why Flower Selection Matters for Same-Day Delivery

Flowers chosen for same-day delivery need to be:

  • Long-lasting & resilient: They should hold up during transit.

  • Readily available: Locally sourced blooms make speedy fulfillment possible.

  • Visually impactful: Even simple stems should create a wow factor on arrival.

At Blooms & Gifts, we design with both practicality and presentation in mind. Here are our top picks:

1. Roses – The Classic for a Reason

  • Perfect for: Romance, apologies, anniversaries, birthdays

  • Why we love them: Kenyan roses are world-renowned for their size, fragrance, and long vase life. Available year-round and in many colors.

  • Pro tip: Mix red and white roses for love and peace combined.

2. Lilies – Elegant & Meaningful

  • Perfect for: Sympathy, anniversaries, congratulations

  • Why we love them: Their trumpet-like blooms open beautifully in transit and continue blooming at home.

  • Note: Some lilies are scented — let us know your preference.

3. Sunflowers – Bold & Bright

  • Perfect for: Birthdays, cheer-up bouquets, encouragement

  • Why we love them: Hardy, happy, and long-lasting. They brighten up any space instantly.

4. Carnations – Affordable & Understated

  • Why we love them: Surprisingly sturdy and available in many soft hues. Excellent for mixed bouquets.

5. Chrysanthemums – Full & Fresh

  • Perfect for: Funerals, thank-yous, family occasions

  • Why we love them: Their full heads and extended vase life make them a customer favorite.

Bonus: Seasonal Flower Picks

Each season brings its own floral stars. Depending on the time of year, we may also recommend:

  • Gypsophila (baby’s breath): Delicate and great for filler

  • Alstroemeria: Long-lasting and beautifully patterned

  • Gerberas: Bright and bold, with cheerful vibes

Ask us what’s in season for the freshest (and often most affordable) options.

Styling Tips for Every Occasion

  • Romantic delivery: Red roses, lilies, and baby's breath
