Songkran in Phuket: mixed roses, hydrangeas and orchids to choose from
Songkran in Phuket brings together three flowers under one theme: mixed roses, hydrangeas and orchids, each leaning into colour rather than a single variety. Choosing starts with what should lead the bouquet — a rose mix, a few large hydrangea heads or a single cut orchid.
What the Songkran selection holds
The grid runs in three lines. Rose bunches move from a soft, restrained mix through a bold multicolour carousel to single-colour French roses set in a box or a jute box. Hydrangeas are sold by stem count, since one head already fills a fair share of the vase, and a short line of boxed orchids sits apart from both. A rainbow cake topped with a unicorn stands in the same grid, off to one side of the flowers.
Colour, not a particular variety, ties the range together: mixed, multicolour and soft mix are the words that repeat through the names. A large-headed flower such as hydrangea needs only a few stems to read as a full bouquet, while a small-headed one needs two dozen or more before the same density shows.
Carousel repeats the same rose mix at three scales: 15, 25 and 101 stems, so the choice there is size rather than colour. Soft Mix keeps closer to a single tone, pale shades sitting near each other on the colour wheel, while the multicolour bunches pull from opposite sides of it for more contrast.
French in a rose's name is not a variety but a technique: the florist turns the outer petals back by hand, opening the flower into a looser, fuller shape. The mixed French roses come two ways here, gathered loose in a box or set in a jute box.
Hydrangeas and orchids: how long they last at home
A cut orchid is the longer-lived of the two, holding two to three weeks in water against roughly a week for a rose. Hydrangea works differently: it drinks more than most cut flowers and takes in water through its petals as well as its stem.
A drooping hydrangea head can usually be revived: submerge it whole in cool water for an hour or two, never longer than four or five. Care otherwise stays the same across the range: an angled cut, water changed every day or two, and the vase kept away from direct sun, radiators and fruit.
Songkran flower delivery in Phuket: photo, card, addresses
Every Songkran in Phuket bouquet is put together to order. The flowers are bought only after payment, and the florist photographs the finished bouquet before the courier sets off, leaving a last chance to ask for a change.
If a variety is out of stock, the florist substitutes something close in shade and price, and the swap is visible on the photo before delivery. The card is free, signed or anonymous. A single order can carry several bouquets to different addresses, with delivery charged separately for each.
Orders can be placed for a chosen date, and the earlier one goes in, the more time slots stay open. How soon a bouquet can go out is shown in its own listing, alongside the delivery page.
A good place to start is the mixed roses if colour should lead, flowers in boxes if the shape needs to survive a wait at reception, or mixed bouquets for a looser arrangement across several kinds.
