Flowers for Diwali

Diwali is the festival of lights: lamps and candles in the windows, marigold colours at the door, and sweets and gifts for family and friends.

The next one: Sunday 8 November 2026.

Order by 11:00 on Saturday 7 November 2026 and the van brings them that day, the last delivery day before Diwali.

Chosen to go with the flowers, and added to the same basket.

Diwali is the festival of lights, kept by Hindus, Sikhs and Jains. Homes are cleaned and lit with lamps and candles, doorsteps are decorated, and families share sweets and gifts. Garlands of marigolds are part of the festival in many homes, and their oranges and golds are the colours to lean on.

A bright bunch in orange and gold makes a present for the hosts, and candles in amber glass or honey-coloured wax go on the windowsill beside the lamps.

Questions we are asked

›When is Diwali?

The next Diwali falls on Sunday 8 November 2026.

›Which flowers suit Diwali?

Bright ones: orange, gold and warm pinks, the colours of the marigold garlands. A bunch like that is a present for the hosts, and it looks right beside the lamps.

›Can the flowers arrive before the day?

Yes. Choose the delivery day at the checkout. When Diwali falls on a day the van does not go out, the order-by line on this page gives the delivery day before it.
