From Gloom to Bloom – Transition from Winter Blues to Summer Hues!

Blossoming through the Seasons

We had a wonderful winter…but it’s hard not to being surrounded by beautiful blooms and lovely customers every day! However, the change in season is getting us excited as the days lengthen, the weather warms and there’s even more variety at the flower markets.

Peony season has now started, and we have beautiful, export-quality peonies available now.

Bringing Nature Indoors with Wildflower Bouquets

Very much on trend this summer, wildflowers bouquets are a celebration of the natural foraged look. With loose shapes, mixed texture and asymmetry, their perfectly imperfect structure emanates organic and relaxed vibes.

Wildflower bouquets are the perfect opportunity for us to lean into our summer creativity, crafting arrangements that feel wild and whimsical and oh-so-Insta-worthy!

Pretty in Pastels

If you’re a follower of design, you’ll know fashion follows interiors and interiors follow fashion. And you’ll also know, flowers are the perfect seasonal refresh for your home!

Looking ahead, we expect to see pastels making their mark in both fashion and in homes. Think buttery yellows, vintage rose and soft lavenders – and now imagine these gorgeous hues grounded with the deep murky tones of rich greens and gentle browns.

Getting the picture yet?! Hydrangea, lisianthus, roses, stock, dahlias, sweet peas, magnolia – textural bouquets of trending perfection that will elevate any home!

Sustainable Blooms

Ethical bouquets, flowers with conscience, eco-chic blooms…call them what you want, but our reality is sustainable floristry is big right now and consumers are demanding more from the industry.

We’re in a lucky position, able to source locally grown and seasonal flowers from Canterbury growers, reducing the environmental footprint of flowers by eliminating long-distance transport. Seasonality plays a vital role in sustainability too, accessibility reducing the need for energy-intensive greenhouse cultivation.

Finally, we love nothing better than a made-to-order bouquet. Not only do you get the bouquet you want, but we can order the flowers ahead of time and reduce product waste – a win-win for all of us!

Don’t Forget to Bloom!

Summer’s the season for celebration and there’s plenty to get excited about! It’s also the season for giving and we’ve got all the bases covered.

Whether it’s a gift basket to thank your favourite teacher, flowers for a retiree or a box of Christmas delights for an impossible-to-buy family member, we’ve got all your gifting needs sorted.
