Send Flowers to Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

Still called Saigon by nearly everyone who lives there, Ho Chi Minh City is the commercial engine of Vietnam and the destination for a large share of the flowers we deliver. It is a city that runs on motorbikes, which is exactly how most bouquets travel: strapped carefully behind a florist's rider and threaded through traffic.

The old centre, still widely known as District 1, holds offices, hotels and the boulevards around the cathedral and the Opera House. Thao Dien and An Phu, across the river, are home to many foreign families and international schools, and Phu My Hung in the south has a large Korean and Japanese community. Vietnamese families more often live in tall, narrow houses down numbered alleys, where an address can contain two or three slashes. Copy it exactly and add the recipient's mobile number.

To send flowers to Ho Chi Minh City, order before midnight Vietnam time and a local florist delivers the next day, Monday to Saturday. Same-day delivery is not offered, and there are no deliveries on Sundays or main public holidays. The year divides into a dry season from about December to April and a rainy season with heavy afternoon downpours, so say in the delivery instructions if mornings suit better. Before Tet, Nguyen Hue boulevard becomes a pedestrian flower street.
