Gratitude and apologies
Bouquets that say thank you, I’m sorry or just because, hand-tied on Biashara Street and delivered to homes and offices across Nairobi.
“Thank you” and “I’m sorry” are simple words that can be surprisingly hard to say well. Flowers help. A bouquet on a desk thanks a colleague who went the extra mile. A basket at the door thanks a neighbour who watched the house. A soft arrangement with an honest card can open the door to a conversation after a disagreement. Since 2008, our florists on Biashara Street have helped Nairobi say both.
Gratitude is one of the most common reasons people send flowers, and one of the nicest to receive. Popular thank you moments include:
Pink roses mean gratitude and admiration. Yellow roses and sunflowers bring warmth and cheer. Mixed bright bouquets and flower boxes suit almost anyone, and a fruit basket or chocolates make a thank you easy to share with a team.
Thank you flowers work best when they feel personal. Send them soon after the moment you are grateful for, ideally within a week. Match the size to the gesture: a neat bouquet or small flower box for a colleague, something fuller for a host who welcomed your whole family. For teachers, doctors and nurses, check that the workplace allows gifts, and consider something the whole staff can share. For clients and business partners, a branded card from your company and a flower box or hamper keeps things professional. Above all, write the card yourself. A specific line, such as “thank you for staying late to help me finish the report”, means far more than a general “thanks for everything”.
An apology bouquet will not fix everything, but it shows you care enough to try. A few things our florists have learned over the years:
| Colour | Message | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Pink | Gratitude, admiration, gentle affection | Thank you, apologies |
| Yellow | Friendship, warmth, cheer | Thanking friends and colleagues |
| White | Peace, sincerity, a fresh start | Apologies |
| Peach | Sincere thanks and appreciation | Hosts, mentors, carers |
| Red | Love and passion | Apologies to a partner, with care |
We deliver thank you and apology flowers to homes and offices across Nairobi, including Westlands, Kilimani, Upper Hill and Gigiri. Same-day delivery is available within Nairobi. Call or WhatsApp us on 0724 906221 for details. For towns around Nairobi, we offer next-day delivery when you order by 12:00 noon.
Pair your flowers with chocolates, a cake, wine or a fruit basket, or choose a ready-made gift hamper. For a team, a hamper everyone can share often lands best.
| Gift | Typical price range (KES) |
|---|---|
| Thank you and apology bouquets | About 3,000 to 15,000 (most around 5,800) |
| Flower boxes | 4,500 to 13,500 |
| Flowers with chocolates or a hamper | From about 6,500 |
Not every bouquet needs a reason. “Just because” flowers, sent on an ordinary day to someone who matters, are often the ones people remember most. A bright mixed bouquet or a single colour of roses with a short note is all it takes.
We deliver to homes and offices in every area below. See all areas we serve.
