Celebrate Occasions by Sending Flowers to Martinique
Martinique's Carnival (Carnaval de Martinique) is the island's most spectacular celebration, rivaling the great carnivals of the Caribbean and South America. Held in February before Lent, it features elaborate costumes, street parades, and the deep rhythms of gwo ka and biguine music. Flowers and tropical decorations are central to the festive atmosphere. Bastille Day (July 14th) is enthusiastically celebrated as Martinique is French territory, making it a perfect occasion for a patriotic floral gift.
Martinicans celebrate birthdays, anniversaries, Valentine's Day, and Mother's Day with great warmth and enthusiasm. Mother's Day in Martinique follows the French calendar — the last Sunday of May. The island's Catholic heritage means Easter, Christmas, and the Feast of All Saints (Toussaint, November 1st) are important occasions. For Toussaint, it is a French tradition to bring chrysanthemums to cemeteries — one of the most flower-intensive occasions in the French calendar.
The Best Martinique Flower Delivery Service
To Which Areas in Martinique Can I Send Flowers?
abcFlora delivers flowers throughout Martinique, including the capital Fort-de-France, the commercial hub of Le Lamentin, the southern beach town of Sainte-Anne, the northern fishing village of Le Robert, the resort area of Les Trois-Îlets, the eastern commune of Le Vauclin, and the mountainous north near Saint-Pierre. Our local florist partners can reach communities across this beautiful island.
Which are the Most Popular Flowers in Martinique?
Martinique's lush tropical environment produces extraordinary flowers. The exotic anthurium — with its waxy, heart-shaped bloom — is perhaps Martinique's most iconic flower and a major export product of the island. Heliconias, birds of paradise, ginger flowers, orchids, and tropical lilies all thrive in the island's warm, humid climate. The balisier (Heliconia caribaea) — the flower of the Martinican independence movement — holds cultural and political significance. Imported roses and lilies are also popular for romantic and formal occasions.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Martinican anthuriums so special?
Martinique is famous for cultivating some of the world's finest anthuriums. The island's volcanic soil, warm temperatures, and high humidity create ideal conditions for these exotic blooms. Martinican anthuriums are prized for their rich, glossy color (available in red, pink, white, and orange), waxy texture, and exceptional longevity — they can last weeks after cutting.
What language should I write the card message in for Martinique?
French is the official language of Martinique, and a card written in French will feel very natural and personal. Martinican Creole (Kréyòl Matinikè) is also widely spoken in everyday life. English is less commonly used on the island compared to other Caribbean destinations, so a French message is ideal.
Is the flower tradition for Toussaint (All Saints' Day) followed in Martinique?
Yes! As a French territory, Martinique follows the French tradition of bringing chrysanthemums to cemeteries on November 1st (Toussaint/All Saints' Day) to honor the deceased. This makes November 1st one of the biggest days for chrysanthemum purchases in Martinique. If you want to send flowers for this occasion, order chrysanthemums well in advance.
When is Mother's Day in Martinique?
Martinique follows the French Mother's Day calendar — the last Sunday of May (unless Pentecost falls on that Sunday, in which case it moves to the first Sunday of June). This is slightly different from the US and UK dates, so make sure to use the French calendar when planning your order.
