Send Flowers to Kalmar, Sweden

Kalmar is a coastal city in south-eastern Småland, facing the island of Öland across the strait, with a Renaissance castle on the waterfront and a bridge to the island. It has a university campus and a well-preserved old town, and it is a popular summer destination. Relatives abroad send flowers here for birthdays, anniversaries and times of grief.

Mother's Day in Sweden falls on the last Sunday of May, as the summer season opens in Kalmar. Midsommar is celebrated with flower crowns, and many families cross to Öland for it. Studenten in June brings bouquets for graduates. Funerals take place a few weeks after a death, and flowers with a printed ribbon are sent to the chapel.

Order before midnight local time and delivery is made the next day. The florist calls the recipient first, so a phone number is required, and finds another time if nobody is home. Roses, lilies, tulips, mixed bouquets and plants are stocked in Kalmar; on Öland the florist may propose a close equivalent if a specific flower is not available.
