This year, 8 March falls on a Sunday again. This UN-recognised holiday has been celebrated in the Netherlands since 1912. Initially, it was a tribute to the large-scale strike held in New York on 8 March by women in the garment industry. However, since the women's movement of the 1960s and its official recognition by the UN in 1978, International Women's Day has evolved into a celebration for all those who advocate for women's rights. Here at De Duinroos, we also believe it's important to commemorate this significant day, and particularly its underlying message. That's why we've put together a special collection of International Women's Day bouquets.
The best way to celebrate this special occasion is to get together in person. But sometimes the distance is too great, or you'd like to send an additional gift. Having a beautiful bouquet delivered is the perfect solution, and we're happy to help! For Women's Day, we recommend bouquets featuring flowers in feminine colours such as pink and white, which symbolise strength, love and respect. Think roses and dahlias, for example. Flowers that bloom in early spring are also lovely. Want to give a seasonal bouquet for International Women's Day? Then choose a bouquet containing tulips, daffodils or hyacinths, for example.
Through De Duinroos, you can have super-fresh flowers delivered throughout the Netherlands. We can deliver to your home, but we also deliver to work or a public building with ease. Want to be sure you don't forget to have your bouquet delivered? Then schedule your delivery well in advance. In 2026, International Women's Day falls on Sunday, March 8th, so our florists will have a day off on Sunday. But don't worry: if you order your bouquet on time, we'll make sure the flowers are delivered on Saturday, March 7th. But what if you realize on Saturday morning that you completely forgot to order flowers for your favorite woman(s)? No worries: order before 11:45 AM and we'll deliver the flowers the same day.
On a day like International Women's Day, we reflect on what still needs to be improved in terms of women's rights, but we also celebrate what has been achieved. In our opinion, flowers are the perfect start, but wine, chocolate and other treats also help to create a festive atmosphere. And you guessed it — you've come to the right place for those too! When ordering a bouquet, you can add tasteful and festive gifts. How about beautiful bottles of non-alcoholic wine and artisanal chocolates? This will make your Women's Day bouquet delivery even more special!
As well as the most delicious gifts, we also offer the option of adding a vase to your bouquet. You can easily add a vase when ordering. If you order a bouquet with a vase, it will be delivered to your door ready to go, complete with water and flower food. All the recipient has to do is find a nice spot for it. How easy is that?
Who should we deliver it to? Ordering is easy: choose your favourite bouquet, add a card and perhaps a gift, select a delivery date, enter the recipient's address and place your order! Your super-fresh bouquet will then be delivered to your door in perfect condition.
