How to Deliver Flowers to France from the UK
You can order flowers for delivery in France from the UK through Pyat Tsvetov (5 Flowers): choose a bouquet on our France or destination city page, enter the recipient’s address and card message, and pay online in rubles. We deliver to 23 French cities, including Paris and Cannes, and the displayed bouquet price already includes delivery. Checkout uses CloudPayments; check the payment options shown there before relying on a particular UK-issued card.
Customers arranging a gift from another country often need help with the practical details: finding the right destination, choosing flowers for the occasion and making the address clear. Our Saint Petersburg flower shops have been serving customers since 2011, and we also deliver abroad to 39 countries and more than 1,090 cities. For a gift to France, start with the destination catalogue, then match the bouquet to the recipient’s taste and the setting where they will receive it.
Check the French destination before choosing flowers
Open Flower delivery to France and check the destination before settling on a bouquet. Our French coverage includes 23 cities; examples are Paris, Argenteuil, Asnières-sur-Seine, Aulnay-sous-Bois, Boulogne-Billancourt, Cannes, Clamart and Clichy. This is a city-based service, so the presence of Paris in the catalogue does not establish coverage for every address in the surrounding region.
Use the recipient’s actual municipality and postcode when checking the destination. An address described casually as “near Paris” may belong to a separate city, and that distinction matters when placing the order. Copy the French address carefully, retaining accents where supplied, and include the building and apartment details you have. Avoid replacing the municipality with a better-known nearby city.
If you are comparing destinations for several gifts, the Flower delivery abroad page lists all available countries and cities. That page is in Russian, so a browser translation can help you navigate it. Keep the original spelling of the destination in the order details, even if you translate the page. For questions about coverage, call 8 (812) 507-67-05.
Place the order and check payment from the UK
An order for France follows the same basic sequence as an order for Russia. Choose a bouquet on the country or city page, enter the delivery address, add your card text and proceed to online payment. Read the destination and bouquet details together before paying. A bouquet you found in another country’s catalogue should not be treated as an available choice for your French address.
Prices for orders abroad are already converted to rubles and include delivery. The Russian city delivery charge of 500 RUB does not apply to the French order. If you normally budget in pounds, remember that the checkout amount is in rubles. Check your card issuer’s currency conversion terms separately if you need to understand what the transaction may cost in your account currency.
Online checkout uses CloudPayments, and we cannot promise that every foreign-issued card will be accepted. Check the payment options displayed at checkout rather than assuming that a card used successfully elsewhere will work here. Keep the order information available while completing payment so you can refer to the correct gift if you need assistance. Payment questions can be raised by phone on 8 (812) 507-67-05.
Bouquets we can deliver
Choose flowers for the relationship and the setting
Start with what the recipient likes rather than a rigid list of flower meanings. Red roses commonly suggest romantic affection, so they suit an established romantic message more readily than a formal thank-you. For a colleague or host, a mixed bouquet in colours they enjoy can make the intention easier to read. Use the card to state the occasion clearly instead of asking the flowers to carry the whole message.
In France, chrysanthemums are strongly associated with remembrance and cemetery visits, particularly around All Saints’ Day. For a birthday, a dinner invitation or a cheerful congratulations gift, another flower choice is usually more appropriate unless you know the recipient loves them. Personal preferences still matter more than a blanket rule. A familiar favourite can be a thoughtful choice when its meaning is already understood between you.
Consider where the bouquet will stand and who will look after it. Someone with a small table may appreciate a manageable arrangement more than a large display that crowds the room. If you know that strong floral scents bother the recipient, use that knowledge when reviewing the bouquet description. In a home with cats, avoid lilies because they are highly toxic to cats, including their pollen and vase water.
Plan the date, address and personal message
For a birthday or anniversary, decide whether the flowers should arrive on the occasion itself or on another day when the recipient can enjoy them at home. France and the UK have different local times, so write down your intended date with the French destination in mind. Review the delivery information available for that order before paying. The express and time-window options published for Russian cities should not be assumed to apply in France.
Give an address where the recipient can realistically receive a bouquet. For a workplace, include the company name and any department or reception details that help distinguish the recipient. For a home, include the apartment number and any access information you already know. Our guide to the information a courier needs can help you organise the details before completing the form.
Write a message that sounds like something you would say to the recipient in person. A short greeting, a specific reason for sending flowers and your name usually communicate more than a formal verse. Check names, accents and the occasion before submitting the text. If the recipient speaks English, there is no need to force a French message; a clear, personal note is more useful than an uncertain translation.
Help the recipient enjoy the bouquet for longer
A brief care note can be useful when sending flowers to someone who rarely receives them. Suggest that they prepare a clean vase, add fresh water and remove any leaves that would sit below the waterline. Recutting the stem ends with a clean, sharp tool helps the flowers take up water. If flower food is supplied with the bouquet, it should be mixed according to its packet instructions.
Where the bouquet stands also matters. A position away from direct sunlight, radiators and draughts generally gives cut flowers a better setting than a hot windowsill. Keep the arrangement away from ripening fruit, which can release ethylene and accelerate ageing in sensitive flowers. These are practical care measures, not a promise that every flower variety will last for the same number of days.
Encourage the recipient to check the water regularly and refresh it when it becomes cloudy. Remove fading flowers and submerged plant material so they do not sit decaying in the vase. If stems become crowded, a clean vase with more room can make maintenance easier. Different flowers open and fade at different rates, so judge the condition of individual stems rather than expecting the entire bouquet to change together.
Sending another bouquet to Russia from the UK
If your next gift is for someone in Russia, we also deliver flowers across Russia. Start with the bouquets catalogue, select the destination and provide the recipient’s address and message. City delivery costs 500 RUB; for remote districts and suburbs, the operator confirms the price when confirming the order. These Russian delivery terms are separate from the delivery-inclusive prices shown for orders abroad.
In large Russian cities, express delivery is available in one to two hours after the order is confirmed. Other options include an exact time with a tolerance of 30 minutes, the windows 09–12, 12–15, 15–18 and 18–21, or an order placed one to 30 days ahead. In Saint Petersburg, delivery operates around the clock. Choose the arrangement that fits the recipient’s day rather than assuming they will be available whenever the bouquet arrives.
Delivery is anonymous by default: the courier does not name the sender, and a card with your text is free. The courier calls the recipient about 15 minutes before arrival. If the recipient is absent, we agree a second delivery that day or, with the sender’s consent, hand the flowers to a neighbour or concierge. Add your name to the card when you want the recipient to know immediately who sent the gift. We deliver bouquets across Russia in 1–2 hours.
