Send Flowers to Gävle, Sweden

Gävle is a coastal city in Gästrikland, about 170 kilometres north of Stockholm, where the Dalälven meets the Gulf of Bothnia. It is famous across Sweden for the giant straw goat built in the town square every December, and it has a historic harbour and timber-trade past. Families with relatives abroad send flowers to Gävle for birthdays, anniversaries and times of grief.

The last Sunday of May is Mother's Day in Sweden and the busiest flower day in Gävle. Fars dag comes on the second Sunday of November, and the Advent and Christmas season, with the goat in the square, is a popular time for winter arrangements. For a funeral, flowers with a message ribbon are sent to the church, and the service is usually held a few weeks after the death.

Order before midnight Swedish time for next-day delivery. We need the recipient's phone number: the florist calls ahead and rearranges if nobody is home. Roses, lilies, gerberas, mixed bouquets and plants are generally available, and your card message is included free.
