Kingsville flower delivery by Kate Hill Flowers

Kingsville Florist

Kingsville is a small triangle of streets between Geelong Road, Williamstown Road and Somerville Road, and our Southbank studio delivers there Monday to Saturday. Anything ordered before 1pm leaves Southbank the same day for the weatherboards of the Queensville estate or the shops along Somerville Road.

Inside the Kingsville Triangle

Much of Kingsville is the Queensville estate, a heritage area of timber houses from the 1910s and 1920s, Edwardian cottages mixed with Californian bungalows. Most sit close to the street on narrow lots and predate cars, so few have a driveway. Check the house number is clear from the footpath.

The streets run long and straight, many still lined with bluestone kerbs, and Queensville and Chirnside Streets have plenty of the bungalows. Somerville Road has a small strip of shops. For a shopkeeper, add the business name.

From Market Box to Kingsville Verandah

Bought Where the Growers Know Us

Since 2007 we have bought at the Melbourne market, and the growers there have come to know how particular we are. That is why they show us their better lines first, and why we can hand back a box that is not right. The stems in a Kingsville order begin there.

Every Bunch Opened in Southbank

In the Southbank studio, the market boxes are opened and every stem is checked before design starts. Anything bruised, bent or tired comes out. What is left is stripped, cut and stood in fresh water, and the florist designing your Kingsville arrangement looks over each stem again as it takes shape.

A Vessel of Water Underneath

Kingsville houses tend to sit near the footpath, so flowers may wait on a verandah or by the door until someone is home. Our signature bag has a water vessel in its base, so they keep drinking. Change the water daily once they are inside. If anything is wrong, tell us within 10 days and we will replace it or refund it.

Kingsville Milestones Worth Marking

Kingsville is a suburb of family homes, with the Corpus Christi Catholic primary inside it and Kingsville Primary School just over the line in Yarraville. Think of a new baby, a birthday, a thank you for a teacher or a welcome for a family settling into an old weatherboard. Tell our florists who the flowers are for and they will choose stems to suit.

Where Kingsville Ends and Its Neighbours Begin

The name Kingsville once covered ground now split between West Footscray and Yarraville, so addresses still get mixed up. For those, or for Spotswood, Seddon and Footscray, try sending to West Footscray, Yarraville bouquets, the Spotswood page, Seddon flower orders or our Footscray page. Our directory of Melbourne delivery suburbs has the rest.

Kingsville Delivery in Plain Terms

Can Kingsville get flowers the same day?

Yes, provided the order is in before 1pm. We deliver Monday to Saturday, not on Sundays or public holidays, and after 1pm you can choose the next delivery day at checkout.

What will Kingsville delivery cost?

Our delivery fees are set suburb by suburb. Put Kingsville into the delivery suburb box on a product page and the fee is shown up front, before you pick your flowers.

Is Kingsville the same as South Kingsville?

No. South Kingsville is a separate pocket further south in Hobsons Bay with the postcode 3015, while Kingsville is the 3012 triangle off Somerville Road. Check which one your recipient lives in and enter that suburb in the delivery suburb box.

What if nobody is home at a Kingsville house?

A shaded verandah or another safe place by the door is fine, and so is a neighbour. If neither is possible, we call you first. If you cannot be reached, the flowers go back to our Southbank store and we contact you again to arrange redelivery or collection.

When will flowers arrive in Kingsville?

Expect a knock at the door somewhere from 9am to 5pm on the delivery day. It is a window we work within, not an appointment, so for anything time sensitive, leave a note at checkout and we will do our best.
