Flowers play an integral role in most life events of a person. From a man courting the woman he likes, to big celebrations like a debut and wedding, flowers are always present to complete the crucial moments in a person’s life. Though typically linked with joyful events, blooms are also used for occasions which commemorate the end of life.

With All Saints’ Day less than two weeks away, ShoppersGuide has listed six markets in the Metro which offer not only fresh blooms for one’s late loved ones but also delight to those tightening their belts this season.

Sitting adjacent to Dangwa Bus Terminal where this famous place got its name, Dangwa is the best place to go to if deceased loved ones are laid in the nearby Manila North Cemetery. Starting at PhP100, one can buy a small flower arrangement in the series of stalls found in the streets of Dimasalang, Dos Castillos, and Laong Laan where vendors sell various kinds of fresh flowers from different provinces in the country. Some stores are also open 24 hours, thus allowing people from other cities to pay a visit at their convenient time.

How to Get There: Ride LRT Line 1 and get off at Tayuman Station. Ride a jeepney with the sign “Espana Lardizabal” and ask the driver to drop you off at Laong Laan Street, which is one of the streets which make up Dangwa.

Located several meters away from Pasig Catholic Cemetery, Pasig City Mega Market, mostly known as Pasig Palengke, is the place to go in the city if one wants to shop for beautifully-arranged flowers minus the expensive price tag. For PhP500, baskets of flower arrangements are up for grabs in the stalls found in the market’s ground floor. Flowers sold in small pots are also available for people with a tighter budget.

How to Get There: Take the MRT Line 3 and get off at Shaw Boulevard Station. Then, ride a jeepney bound for Pasig Palengke in Parklea Center.


4. Pioneer St. Market

Pioneer St. Market may be known for its organic produce and array of cuisine in its food stalls, but this food market is also a good alternative for people who don’t want to deal with the crowd and grungy surroundings when flower shopping. The Flower Ranch, one of the first stalls which will welcome visitors, sells fresh flower arrangements starting at PhP500. From chrysanthemums, lilies, to asters, this small shop is complete with flowers that will best commemorate a loved one. Flowers can also come in bunches if one has a limited budget.

How to Go There: From EDSA, ride a jeepney in Parklea Center bound for Pasig Palengke and get off at Pioneer Street. From here, ride a tricycle and ask the driver to drop you off in front of TV5.

Located in the mall’s Fiesta Market, the flower section of Market! Market! is the place to go for fresh blooms for late loved ones laying in Manila American Cemetery and other nearby memorial parks. Although slightly pricier than the rest of the markets listed, this place still offers cheaper blooms compared to the other flower shops in the area. Starting at PhP1,000, one can take home a basket of custom-made flower arrangement containing carnations, stargazers, sunflowers, and other types of flowers. Standing arrangements are also sold for people with more budget.

How to Get There: Ride a bus in the BGC Bus Terminal near MRT Ayala Station’s north exit and get off at Market! Market!.


Ultimately, it does not matter whether one’s floral offering to his or her late loved ones is big, small, pricey, or inexpensive. This All Saints’ Day, one should remember that the greatest respect he or she can give to the deceased is a solemn celebration and remembrance of the good things that the latter has contributed to the world.
