The flowers that last longest in a warm Carstairs kitchen
Anna, qualified florist | woody stems on a farmhouse bench
In a warm kitchen, natives go the distance. At about thirty degrees, leucadendron lasts ten days and more in my experience, and a protea head is close to indestructible. My first summer on the bench in Australia, I watched a leucadendron bunch still going at two weeks.
Two things keep them going. A banksia stem is close to wood, so split the bottom few centimetres with secateurs and it can drink. Protea is thirsty and can empty a vase in a couple of days, so top the water up every day. When the bunch is done, the banksia cones and leucadendron dry where they stand. Months on a shelf.
Birthday, Funeral and Thinking of You Flowers to Carstairs
A birthday, a death in the family, or someone you haven't rung in too long: pick the card that fits and it tells you what to send and where. A get well bunch for someone home from hospital goes out the same way, to the house.
Flowers for a Birthday, Made to Wait on the Bench
A big birthday, and a full house. In June 2007, with Asha three months old and asleep in her capsule, I took a birthday bunch to a farmhouse beside Condong Mill on the Tweed. The birthday lady saw her and that was that (twenty minutes she held her, the flowers sat on the bench in their wrap, nobody minded). A birthday lunch in Carstairs is probably much the same. Anna has a view on this.
An arrangement sits in its own wet foam, so it keeps drinking all afternoon while everyone is busy. I'd send the Blush Pinks Arrangement With Chocolates.
Funeral Flowers, or Flowers to the House
Someone's died, and you can't be there. For the service, a sheath or wreath goes to the funeral director, with their name and the service time in the notes. For the family, send to the house, in the week after or a year on, when the cards have stopped. Flowers are a small thing against a death, and the family still notices who sent them. Keep the card short: "Thinking of you all."
Anna's call: the Pink Lily & Rose Sheath. It lies flat, so if the family carry it on to the graveside, it won't tip.
Thinking of Them, and It's Been a While
You've meant to ring for weeks, and now it's been months. Flowers get you past the awkward start, and the call after is easier for it. Send them to the house with a line like "No reason. Just thinking of you."
The Natives Flowers With A Vase arrives ready to go, and it's the one I'd send someone who isn't fussed about flowers. Natives suit a farmhouse. They look like they belong there.
Not Sure What They'd Like?
Some orders don't fit any heading above, and you don't need one. A mixed bunch is the easy place to start.
Anna's pick when nobody's said what they like
The Rose, Gerbera & Lilies Bunch carries three of the stems people name first. The lilies tend to arrive in bud and open one after another, so the bunch keeps changing through the week, with something new open most mornings.

Cutoffs
2pm weekdays for same day, so there's time to build it and drive it out in daylight.
10am Saturday, when most of our florists work a half day.
No Sunday delivery, except Mother's Day.
Miss a cutoff and you pick the day at checkout.
What the notes need
The road number, say on Groper Creek Road or Little Road, and a mobile for the driver. A surname and "near the river" won't get the driver there.
Who receives it
Whoever's home. If nobody is, name a shady spot in the notes, because half an hour on a hot doorstep finishes a bunch. Order this morning and it can be on their kitchen table this afternoon.

The Afternoon After the Order
Once you've paid, you're done, and the rest happens without you. If you'd like to check it got there or change the card, ring 1300 360 469, 7am to 6pm weekdays and from 10am Saturday, or email [email protected].
If the person you sent them to hasn't rung by tea time, that's normal. People ring when they ring, sometimes a day or two later, and it doesn't mean a thing.
Andrew, on the stem that didn't come in
When an order out to the Burdekin goes sideways, it's usually a stem. The florist builds from what came in that morning. If your pick didn't come in, they use the closest thing that did, and if the change is a big one we'd rather tell you first. If something arrives wrong, send us a photo the same day. We fix it. Same as it's been since 2009.
