Tết flowers delivered in Vietnam

Tết is Vietnam’s Lunar New Year and the one week when every family in the country buys flowers. If your partner, in-laws or friends are in Vietnam, flowers arriving before Tết say more than any gift sent later. Flosa arranges and delivers in Vietnam; you pay by card or PayPal from wherever you are and get a photo of the real flowers before delivery.

When Tết falls (2027)

• Kitchen Gods’ Day (23rd of the last lunar month): Sat, 30 Jan 2027. Families clean the altar and start buying flowers.
• New Year’s Eve: Fri, 5 Feb 2027 · Tết, day 1: Sat, 6 Feb 2027 · Day 3: Mon, 8 Feb 2027.
• Full moon of the first month: Sat, 20 Feb 2027. The first big altar day of the year.

The week before Tết is the busiest of the year for every florist: good stems sell out early, prices follow the wholesale market, and most shops close from New Year’s Eve until day 3 or 4. We publish our Tết cut-off and delivery calendar on the homepage each January. Ordering early is how you get the design you want on the day you want.

What Vietnamese families expect

• Parents and in-laws: a potted phalaenopsis orchid is the status gift of Tết, it lasts about two months, from before Tết to past the first full moon. Yellow and pink are the lucky colours.
• The family altar: a five-fruit basket or altar flowers (yellow chrysanthemum, gladiolus, tuberose), delivered before New Year’s Eve for the year-end offering.
• Your partner: a fresh bouquet on day 1–3 with a handwritten card; roses, tulips and peonies are the spring favourites.
• A business partner in Vietnam: a congratulation stand with your company name on the ribbon, delivered on their reopening day (usually day 6–10).

Avoid all-white arrangements for Tết: white is the funeral colour in Vietnam. Red, yellow and gold are what people want to see on the first days of the year.

Ordering from abroad

1. Choose the flowers and write your message in any language. Our staff copy it by hand onto the card; Vietnamese greetings are fine too, we check the spelling.
2. Enter the recipient’s address in Vietnam (province, street, phone). Delivery dates and time slots are Vietnam time (GMT+7).
3. Pay by Visa, Mastercard or JCB, or PayPal when ordering from outside Vietnam. If a card is declined we email you a PayPal link.
4. You get a photo of the real arrangement before delivery, and another when it has been handed over.

Ho Chi Minh City is delivered by our own drivers; Hanoi, Da Nang, Can Tho, Nha Trang and other provinces through long-standing partner florists, so order a day ahead. Addresses without a fixed delivery fee are quoted after we confirm the order. Full details: send flowers to Vietnam.
