Send Flowers to Bonao, Dominican Republic

Bonao carries a nickname that any florist would envy: Villa de las Hortensias, the town of hydrangeas. The flower thrives in the damp, mild hills around this city in the centre of the Dominican Republic, and its blue and pink heads are a local emblem. Bonao is the capital of Monseñor Nouel province and sits on the Autopista Duarte between Santo Domingo and Santiago, so most travellers know it as a place to stop for a meal.

It is also an artistic town, home of the painter Cándido Bidó, whose cultural plaza remains a local landmark, and a mining one, with a large nickel operation nearby. Deliveries go to family homes in the centre and the surrounding neighbourhoods, to shops along the main avenue and to offices. Send flowers to Bonao before 11:00 am local time, Monday to Saturday, and they arrive the same day; later orders are delivered the next day, except Sundays. It rains often here, which keeps the air fresh and is kind to cut flowers.
