Shop ByMeadow Heights Flower Delivery, Same Day to Home or Care
Yes, Meadow Heights gets flowers today when you order before 2pm on a weekday or 10am on a Saturday; later orders take the date picked at checkout. Meadow Heights Care Community on Lightwood Crescent has a memory care neighbourhood, so add the resident's full name and room. Our Blue Mist Arrangement below needs no vase at the other end. Buy online, or call us and a person picks up; there's no recording to sit through.

On a summer afternoon, the doorstep is the hottest place the flowers will ever be
Anna, qualified florist | on heat between the van and the vase
Meadow Heights is mostly houses, and on a summer afternoon the stretch between the van and the vase is where flowers suffer. A van parked in the sun passes forty-five degrees inside by midday, and a doorstep facing the afternoon is not far behind. An hour of that costs days in the vase: soft petals go limp at the edges and gerberas fold at the neck.
The florists I knew ran the outer suburbs in the morning on hot days and never left a bunch in a van over lunch. At the door, a person is always better than a step. If nobody will be home, a shaded spot on the south side of the house buys the flowers the afternoon. I learned that one on a forty-degree day with a bucket of gerberas I should have left in the cool room.
Short Card Lines That Read Easily
Simple lines for four occasions
Pick the occasion. Every line is short and plain on purpose.
Welcome, little one. Love from Aunty Leyla.
Congratulations. So happy for you all.
Eid Mubarak to the whole family.
Eid Mubarak. Sorry we cannot be there.
Get well soon. We are thinking of you.
Rest well, Baba. We love you.
Thank you for this year. From Ali and family.
Thank you for everything you did for Mum.
Card ready? Choose a flower bunch
Fewer than a quarter of Meadow Heights homes speak only English, so a short, plain card line is the one most likely to be read the way you meant it.
New Babies, Memory Care and a Family in Mourning
Meadow Heights is a suburb of young families, median age 34 at the 2021 census: new babies, school thank-yous and family milestones, with memory care on Lightwood Crescent too. Our new baby flowers are a good place to start.
A New Baby, Home From Hospital
Your cousin has had the baby and the family is already home, with a house full of visitors. Broadmeadows Hospital has no maternity ward, so if Mum is still in, check which hospital before you order; otherwise send to the house.
Her name and a mobile in the notes, so the florist can ring rather than knock on a sleeping house. Our pink flowers and blue flowers suit a new baby. In the shop years I once knocked loudly on a door in Pottsville with a new-baby bunch and woke the baby, and I have been a gentle knocker ever since.
Anna's pick: nothing heavily scented for a house with a newborn. Roses and gerberas give the colour without perfume or pollen.
Memory Care on Lightwood Crescent
Your father is in the memory care neighbourhood at Meadow Heights Care Community on Lightwood Crescent, and he does not always know the day. He may not remember who sent the flowers by evening. He will still have had them all afternoon.
His full name and room in the notes; in our experience reception takes them and the staff carry them in. Our thinking-of-you flowers carry a card like “From your son, Mehmet. See you Friday.”
Anna, on a memory care room
Something he would know from a garden, roses or daisies, low and in a container that will not tip.
When a Muslim Family Is Grieving
Someone has died in a Muslim family you know, and you are not sure whether flowers are right. Close to half of Meadow Heights is Muslim, so this comes up here. Burial is usually fast and simple, and flowers are not part of the prayers at the mosque.
Some families welcome a simple arrangement at the home after the funeral, and others would rather have none, so ask first. If they say yes, our white sympathy flowers or sympathy flowers for the home go to the house, never the mosque. “Thinking of you and your family.”
Keep it modest. White roses in a low arrangement say enough.
No Occasion, Just a Gesture
A neighbour who helped, a teacher at Meadow Heights Primary, a friend who has had a hard month. You do not need a category.
Anna's pick: our mixed flowers. A mix of colours reads as warm in any household, and it never says anything you did not mean.

Arrangements Ready to StandCutoffs, Names and Houses
When to order
Before 2pm on weekdays, so the florist can build it and reach the houses before the hottest part of a summer afternoon.
Before 10am on Saturdays, as the Saturday run is short in our experience.
No Sunday delivery, except Mother's Day.
What to write
Meadow Heights Care Community on Lightwood Crescent: the resident's full name and room. Meadow Heights Primary on Paringa Boulevard or Bethal Primary on Eldorado Crescent: the teacher and the class. A house: a mobile, and a shaded spot if nobody is home.
Who takes it in
Reception at the care home, the school office, and at a house whoever answers. Before 2pm on a weekday, it goes out that afternoon.
From the Order to Their Door
Your order goes to a florist in or close to Meadow Heights that day and is made from the morning's stock. If a stem in the photo is not in, the florist matches the colour and keeps the size.
If something is not right, send a photo the same day and we fix it. Ring 1300 360 469 from 7am to 6pm on weekdays or from 10am on Saturdays, and send changes to [email protected].
Siobhan, on spelling the name the way the family does
The orders I double-checked most, back on the phones, were the ones where the name could be spelled three ways (Mehmet, Mehmed, Mehmat), because the spelling on the card is the one the family sees first. Write it the way they write it. Now and then a big family means two deliveries from two cousins for the same baby, and nobody minds. And if they do not ring to say thanks, they have a newborn and twenty visitors.
In a house full of family, the flowers on the table are often the thing the visitors ask about.
