Christmas Flowers in Panama: Order Before the Holidays
You can send Christmas flower delivery in Panama from abroad by ordering on flowerspanama.com. Same-day delivery runs until 11:00 am Panama time on Thursday, December 24, 2026, and nothing is delivered on Christmas Day itself. Order two to three days ahead to be safe.
When is the last day to order Christmas flowers in Panama?
The last same-day order time is 11:00 am Panama time on Thursday, December 24, 2026. Orders placed before that cutoff, Monday to Saturday, are delivered the same day in most areas. December 24 is Nochebuena (Christmas Eve), the night Panamanian families usually gather for dinner, so a gift that arrives that afternoon is still in time for the celebration.
Do not wait for the last morning. The site advises ordering at least two to three days ahead for holiday dates. For Christmas, that means Monday, December 21 or Tuesday, December 22. That buffer covers a wrong address, a missing phone number or a florist who needs to call the recipient.
| Date (2026) | Day | What to know |
|---|---|---|
| December 22 | Tuesday | Recommended order date for a safe Christmas arrival |
| December 23 | Wednesday | Same-day delivery if ordered before 11:00 am Panama time |
| December 24 | Thursday | Last same-day order time: 11:00 am Panama time |
| December 25 | Friday | Christmas Day: no deliveries |
| December 27 | Sunday | No deliveries on Sundays |
Does Christmas flower delivery in Panama run over the holidays?
No delivery happens on Christmas Day. Deliveries run Monday to Saturday, with no deliveries on Sundays or main public holidays. Christmas Day falls on Friday, December 25, 2026, so an order placed on December 24 after 11:00 am will be queued for the next delivery day, not Christmas.
New Year's Day (Año Nuevo) on January 1 is also a public holiday, so plan ahead if your gift is for the new year. If you are sending flowers for a mother in early December, note that Día de la Madre falls on Tuesday, December 8, 2026. Our Día de la Madre flowers guide covers that date in detail.
How does same-day delivery work before Christmas?
You place the order online, and a local florist in Panama hand-delivers it to any address in the country. Coverage includes Panama City, San Miguelito, Tocumen, David, Colón and La Chorrera, so gifts for family in Panama City or David follow the same schedule.
You can write a preferred time in the delivery instructions. The florist tries to meet it, but exact time slots are not guaranteed, so treat the time as a request. If the recipient must be home at a specific hour, say so in the instructions and also send a message to them that the flowers are coming.

Which flowers and plants work best for Christmas gifts in Panama?
Start with where the gift will go. A centerpiece suits a family table for Nochebuena, while a vase suits a living room that will keep the arrangement for days. The Lilac Reverie Vase at USD 74.74 is a vase option, and the Iridescent Rose Luxe at USD 137.99 is the higher-priced choice for a more formal gift. Browse the full flowers category to compare the 152 bouquets, arrangements and plants.
If the recipient prefers a plant, consider one that lasts longer than cut stems. The poinsettia, a red and green plant native to Mexico, is the plant most people link with Christmas. Ask our team through the contact page whether a poinsettia is available before you order, since you should not assume a specific plant is in stock.
How much do Christmas flowers cost to send to Panama?
Bouquets start at USD 63.24, plus a flat USD 14.95 delivery fee. The lowest possible total is USD 78.19. Catalog prices range from USD 63.24 to USD 172.49 before the delivery fee.
You are charged in USD. EUR and GBP amounts are shown for reference only. You can pay with Visa, Mastercard or American Express through Stripe, or with PayPal. Add-ons such as a box of chocolates, a glass vase, a plush teddy bear, a greeting card, balloons or a wine bottle are sold separately, so check each add-on price before you pay.
What should you write on the card and what does the florist need?
Every order includes a free printed card, so write your message in the order form. Keep it short. Feliz Navidad (Merry Christmas) is a natural opening, and Próspero Año Nuevo (Happy New Year) works if the gift arrives close to the new year.
The florist needs three things: the recipient's name, full address and a phone number. For a Panama address, add the building name, apartment number and any landmark that helps the driver find the door. Put any preferred delivery time in the instructions box so the florist sees it.
