Finding Homes in the River Bend

Military Road is the only main road, turning into Milleara Road at the police station. Most homes date from the 1960s on, with a newer estate off Military Road. In the north, the Milleara estate keeps the curving streets Walter Burley Griffin and Marion Mahony Griffin laid out in the 1920s, so a cross street in the notes helps.

The river wraps around three sides, and the banks are mostly steep, with a linear park and the Maribyrnong River Trail along the water. Tea Gardens Reserve, on the site of the old riverside tea gardens, is a landmark people know. For a house backing onto the parkland, the street address is what we need.

Avondale Heights Flowers That Keep

Where the Good Stems Get Saved

We have been regulars at the Melbourne market since 2007, and the growers who supply us know we will hand back anything that is not right. In return, they set aside their better lines for us. The roses, lilies and seasonal flowers in an Avondale Heights order start from that stock.

Studio Checks, Stem by Stem

Inside our Southbank studio, each market box is unpacked and every stem looked over before it is used. Bruised, soft or bent stems are taken out, and the keepers are trimmed and stood in fresh water. Your florist checks them again while designing, so only good stems reach Avondale Heights.

Water Travels in the Base

Up a long front path or on a quiet street by the river, flowers may sit a while before anyone answers. Our signature bag holds a water vessel in its base, so the stems drink the whole time. Give them fresh water daily. Anything wrong, let us know within 10 days and we will replace it or refund it.

What Avondale Heights Gathers For

Avondale Heights has a library and learning centre on Military Road, St Martin de Porres Primary School, sporting clubs on its reserves and families who have been here for generations. Birthdays, anniversaries, christenings and thank yous for teachers and coaches all give people a reason. Tell our florists who the flowers are for and they will design for that person.

Avondale Heights Delivery Questions

Can I order same day flowers to Avondale Heights?

Yes. Order before 1pm on a delivery day, Monday to Saturday, and they go out that day. There are no deliveries on Sundays or public holidays, and later orders can be set for the next delivery day at checkout.

How much does delivery to Avondale Heights cost?

Prices are set by suburb. Type Avondale Heights into the delivery suburb box on any product page and the delivery price appears before you choose.

Can you deliver to a house that backs onto the river reserve?

Yes, to the front door on the street. Give us the street address rather than the reserve or the trail, and if the house sits well back or down a long drive, add a line about which way to go.

What happens if no one answers in Avondale Heights?

Somewhere safe and shaded near the door is the first choice, or a neighbour. If there is no such spot, we contact you first. If we cannot reach you, they go back to our Southbank store and we call again to arrange redelivery or collection.

What time will my Avondale Heights flowers arrive?

Avondale Heights orders arrive across the day, from 9am to 5pm. That is our delivery window, not a fixed appointment, so if timing matters for a family gathering or a visit, add a note at checkout and we will do our best.
