• Lilies: Fragrant and showy, perfect for creating a dramatic festive arrangement.
• Chrysanthemums: Long-lasting blooms available in rich Christmas tones.
• Seasonal Greens: NZ foliage, ruscus, and conifer-style greenery add texture and a holiday feel.

• Christmas Gift Hampers with Flowers: Pair blooms with chocolates, pamper items, or gourmet treats.
• Red & White Bouquets: A beautifully simple seasonal palette that suits any recipient.
• Native-Inspired Designs: Incorporating textures and colours reminiscent of a Kiwi summer Christmas.

When to Order Your Christmas Flowers

Florists across Auckland experience very high demand in the week before Christmas. Ordering early ensures the best selection and guaranteed delivery.

• Early December: Ideal for corporate gifts and early-season decorating.
• Mid December: Best timeframe for personal gifts and home floral styling.
• 20–24 December: The busiest delivery days of the year — limited stock and time slots fill quickly.

Tip: If you’re sending flowers to a business address, aim for delivery before the company closes for the holidays.
