Send flowers to South Africa
Sending flowers to South Africa from Australia is easier than you might think. Through international flower networks with locally based florists in South Africa, you can order online and have a beautiful bouquet delivered directly to the door – whether that is in Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban or another city.
International florist networks cover a wide geographical area in South Africa, making it possible to reach addresses in Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, Pretoria and many more places across the country. You choose the bouquet, provide the delivery address, and a local florist takes care of the rest.
Flowers are a universal symbol of care and joy. Whether you are celebrating a wedding, congratulating someone on a birthday, offering sympathy or simply bringing a smile to a friend in South Africa – a beautiful bouquet says more than a thousand words.

Flower delivery in South Africa
Flower delivery in South Africa is handled by local florists who are part of international florist networks. This means your bouquet is packed and delivered by an experienced florist near the recipient's address – for the best possible quality and freshness.
In larger cities such as Johannesburg and Cape Town same-day express delivery is possible with early ordering. In other parts of South Africa delivery normally takes 1–3 days.
Good to know before you send to South Africa
You pay in Australian dollars and the florist in South Africa is paid in Rand, so no currency conversion is left for the recipient. A card message written in English is understood by most florists, but Zulu reads better to the person opening the envelope.
Pretoria runs 8 to 9 hours behind Sydney. An order you place here during the evening lands in the morning there, so an order sent before bedtime in Australia is usually in time for delivery the following day.
Public holidays in South Africa
Flower shops in South Africa are normally closed on public holidays, and the days right before them are the busiest of the year. Order a day or two earlier than usual around these dates.
