Send Flowers to Waterloo, Belgium

The name is known worldwide for the battle of 1815, and the Lion's Mound still marks the battlefield just south of town. Modern Waterloo is something else: a leafy, prosperous municipality in Walloon Brabant, a short drive from Brussels, with one of the largest expatriate communities in Belgium. American, British and Scandinavian families have long settled here, drawn by international schools such as St. John's.

That makes Waterloo a frequent destination for flowers from overseas: grandparents sending birthday wishes, companies welcoming a new arrival, friends saying goodbye at the end of a posting. Homes are mostly detached houses in districts like Faubourg, Chenois, Joli-Bois and Mont-Saint-Jean, often behind a hedge or a gate, so mention any gate code.

To send flowers to Waterloo, place your order before midnight local time and a florist delivers the next day, Monday to Saturday. There are no Sunday or public holiday deliveries. Cards in English are perfectly normal here, though French is the local language.
