Our flower season runs from spring through early autumn, when our boutique farm is brimming with beautiful, locally grown blooms. Over late autumn and winter, we take a seasonal pause to let the land rest and regenerate. This natural rhythm allows us to grow exceptional flowers that are truly fresh, artful, and intentional—just the way we like it.

Every flower we use is grown on our own boutique farm in the Dandenong Ranges. We don’t import or outsource—each stem is slow-grown, harvested to order, and arranged with care.

We work with the seasons, not a set menu. This means every arrangement is designed using what’s blooming fresh and beautiful right now. You won’t choose specific flowers, but you can select your size and style—and trust us to create something artful and one-of-a-kind.

Yes, we offer next-day delivery every Tuesday through Friday. Deliveries are made by hand to ensure your flowers arrive fresh and upright. If no one’s home, we’ll leave them in a safe, sheltered spot. If we can’t find one, we’ll contact you and arrange redelivery (a small fee applies).

Because we harvest to order and design with care, we keep our delivery days limited. If you need something outside those windows, please reach out—we’ll do our best to help if we can.

Absolutely. Every order includes a handwritten note—just type your message in at checkout and we’ll take care of the rest.

Unlike most florists, we grow everything ourselves—no imports, no generic bunches. We also specialise in rare and heirloom varieties that you won’t find elsewhere, and design in a wild, natural style inspired by the seasons. Each arrangement is personal, intentional, and never the same twice.

Yes! We now offer a monthly flower subscription through The Seasonal Society — a limited-run offering of big, abundant bunches designed to celebrate the best of each season. You can find all the details here.

For corporate gifting, we may be able to support select projects that align with our aesthetic and values. Feel free to reach out with your ideas — we’re always open to meaningful collaborations.

While we’re endlessly honoured when couples reach out, we don’t offer wedding floral services at this time. Thistle & Weeds is focused on seasonal, small-batch arrangements and intentional gifting — our work is rooted in spontaneity, not large-scale event production.

We wish you the most beautiful celebration and a future full of wild, blooming moments.

Every arrangement at Thistle & Weeds is harvested to order and crafted with care, ensuring you receive the freshest blooms, straight from our garden to your hands.

If something isn’t quite right, please let us know. Contact us via email within 24 hours of delivery and we’ll be happy to offer a replacement bouquet of equal value.

Your satisfaction matters deeply to us, and we’ll always do our best to make it right.

1. Start with a clean vase.

Use fresh, room-temperature water and give your vase a thorough wash before placing your flowers inside. Bacteria is the biggest enemy of long vase life.

2. Recut the stems.

Once your flowers arrive, trim each stem at an angle (about 2–3 cm) with clean, sharp scissors or garden shears. This helps them drink deeply and stay hydrated.

3. Remove leaves below the water line.

Any foliage submerged in water can cause bacterial growth. Strip off any leaves that might sit below the water surface.

4. Keep them cool, but not cold.

Display your flowers away from direct sun, heaters, or air conditioners. A calm, shaded room will keep them fresher, longer. Avoid placing them near ripening fruit, which releases ethylene gas that speeds wilting.

5. Refresh the water every 1–2 days.

Change the water, clean the vase if needed, and give the stems a quick retrim to keep them drinking happily.

6. Let them be wild.

Some blooms will last longer than others—that’s part of their charm. Pluck out any fading stems and let the rest continue doing what they do best: unfurling, shifting, surprising you.
