Flowers to Carnegie, Same Day

Koornang Road is one of the best restaurant strips in the south east, and a good share of what we send to Carnegie is birthday flowers landing on a table there, or thank you flowers for a host afterwards. The rest goes to the weatherboards and units in the streets around Carnegie station, and to the apartments going up along Dandenong Road.

Carnegie sits on the same run as Glen Huntly and Murrumbeena, so it is a suburb we are in nearly every day. Flowers chosen at the market at dawn are designed at the studio mid morning and can be on a Carnegie doorstep by early afternoon.

Why Carnegie Orders From Southbank

Ahead of the Crowd at Market

Our buyers have had the same standing at the Melbourne market since 2007, which is why growers bring their better lines to them before the rest of the floor sees them. A Carnegie order starts from that first pick. It also means a bunch that is not right is refused on the spot.

Three Checks Before Carnegie

Everything from the market is opened on the Southbank bench and sorted, and what does not measure up goes back. What stays is cut, conditioned in fresh water and usually designed within twenty four hours. Your florist checks the stems again while the arrangement comes together, and one last time before it leaves for Carnegie.

A Vessel in the Bag

Flowers go to Carnegie in our signature bag, which carries a water vessel seated in its base so nothing tips and nothing dries out. It can be set down as it is on a restaurant table or a front step. Refresh the water daily. If anything is wrong, we replace it or refund it.

The Occasions Carnegie Marks

Birthdays lead in Carnegie, followed by anniversaries, new baby flowers, thank yous and sympathy arrangements, with a steady run of congratulations flowers for the new restaurants and shops on Koornang Road. Tell our florists the occasion and they design to it, using roses, tulips, lilies and whatever the buyers chose that morning.

What happens if the recipient is out?

Our bag has a vessel in it, so flowers can sit in a shaded spot or with a neighbour without harm. We text you to say where they are.

The best of that morning's market. Depending on the season that means roses, peonies, tulips, dahlias, hydrangeas or natives, plus plants, wine and gifts if you want to add them.
