Whether it's for a birthday, a wedding, a birth, a celebration, or simply a spontaneous gesture, giving flowers remains a powerful act full of meaning.

1.1. Price based on chosen flowers

2. Prices that vary by holidays and seasons
2.1. Valentine's Day and Mother's Day: the most expensive periods
❤️ As everywhere in the world, Valentine's Day (February 14th) and Mother's Day (in May) are the two times of the year when bouquet prices in Morocco soar. Demand explodes over a few days, stocks run out, and florists adjust their rates accordingly.
| Normal price | Valentine's Day / Mother's Day price | |
|---|---|---|
| 💐 5 roses | 70 – 100 DH (€6.51 – €9.30) | 150 – 200 DH (€13.94 – €18.59) |
| 💐 10 roses | 140 – 180 DH (€13.01 – €16.73) | 280 – 360 DH (€26.02 – €33.46) |
| 💐 20 roses | 270 – 310 DH (€25.10 – €28.81) | 480 – 600 DH (€44.55 – €55.70) |
| 💐 50 roses | 550 – 650 DH (€51.12 – €60.41) | 1,000 – 1,300 DH (€92.94 – €120.82) |
⏰ Tip: order at least a week in advance for Valentine's Day and Mother's Day. Florists are often fully booked by February 12th or 13th, and bouquets prepared in a rush on the eve of the holiday are sold at a premium for sometimes lower quality.
2.2. Other occasions that drive up prices
💒 Weddings are a major source of floral demand in Morocco, especially in the spring and autumn. The budget depends on the number of guests and the level of decoration: find all prices item by item in our guide to the wedding flower budget in Morocco.
🌙 The month of Ramadan and Eid also stimulate demand: Moroccan families increasingly enjoy decorating their homes and giving flowers to celebrate these important holidays. Finally, births and baptisms are increasingly accompanied by floral bouquets, particularly in urban environments.
2.3. The influence of seasons on bouquet prices
3. Which bouquet for which occasion?
🎁 Choosing a bouquet is about more than just a budget. The occasion and the message you wish to convey should guide your choice as much as the price. A bouquet that is too modest for a declaration of love or too elaborate for thanking a colleague can lead to an unintended faux pas.
| Occasion | Recommended flowers | Indicative budget |
|---|---|---|
| ❤️ Declaration of love / Valentine's Day | Red roses, peonies | 140 – 310 DH |
| 💍 Wedding | White roses, lilies, peonies, carnations | 300 – 800 DH (bridal bouquet) |
| 👶 Birth | Pastel flowers: pink roses, tulips, daisies | 120 – 220 DH |
| 🎂 Birthday | Sunflowers, gerberas, colorful seasonal flowers | 100 – 290 DH |
| 🙏 Condolences | White chrysanthemums, white lilies | 150 – 320 DH |
| 🤝 Thank you / professional | Discreet and elegant mixed bouquet | 100 – 200 DH |
| 🏠 Interior decoration | Seasonal flowers in free arrangement | 90 – 180 DH |
📖 To avoid any faux pas and choose the flowers best suited to each situation, consider asking your florist for advice: they know the language of flowers and will be able to guide you according to your budget and intention.
