Send Flowers to Frankfurt, Germany

Few German cities are as international as Frankfurt. The European Central Bank, the stock exchange, banks, law firms and one of Europe's busiest airports bring people here on postings from every continent, and their families send flowers in both directions. A recipient may be in a glass tower in the banking district, a turn-of-the-century flat in the Nordend or Bornheim, a villa in the Westend near the Palmengarten botanical gardens, a new apartment in the Europaviertel, or south of the river Main in Sachsenhausen, the home of the traditional cider taverns.

For office deliveries, give the company name, floor and a mobile number, because towers have security desks and the florist normally hands the arrangement to reception. For homes, the surname on the bell is essential. Students at Goethe University, patients in the university hospital and guests in the many business hotels can all receive flowers when a full name and a room or ward are supplied.

Flower delivery in Frankfurt works on a next-day basis: order before midnight German time for delivery the following day, Monday to Saturday, with no service on Sundays. Hesse keeps Corpus Christi as a public holiday in early summer, when offices are empty. New jobs, farewells and promotions are as common a reason for flowers here as birthdays.
