Walking into is a calming experience. You are surrounded by the beauty of flowers, the greenery of indoor plants and other feel-good items.


Freshly cut flowers are available as bunched or as individual stems, including several varieties of roses. A single rose to someone says more than a dozen.




It's a small shop but not crowded with flowers. It has an incredible range of floral products.


Chief florist, Amy, said that they previously stocked a large range of gifts but had recently reduced their holdings.






Many displays of gifts were very visible. I particularly liked the large display of dried flower arrangements, all in pots. The arrangements were exquisite.


Usually, an eye-sore in shops is the electrical meter box. Not so here. Just hang some colourful and unique carry bags on them and they all blend into the surroundings.


A cane high-backed chair and a wine barrel were a nice display in the window. Easter bunnies are featured in both.


Cute as were about thirty teddies in a display cabinet, all waiting to be adopted. More than enough for a teddy bear picnic when the shop is closed.


A shelved trolly on the footpath displayed pots and shrubs to plant in your garden. Some colourful cyclamens were ready to take home in hessian carry bags.




There is a rustic charm in with many of the items displayed on wooden boxes and crates and the occasional tree segment.


They source locally grown and picked flowers, which is no surprise as the Yarra Valley and the nearby Dandenong Ranges are renowned for their flower growers.


is on the corner of Marigold Way, and appropriately their side wall displays a giant mural, which is depicted on their business card.




If you are passing, drop in to appreciate Amy's floral talents.
