Same Day Delivery - Newtown Wide!
Sending flowers to Newtown feels personal to us, more than you might expect. A few months ago we were in Sydney with our youngest daughter Ivy, who has her heart set on studying law at Sydney Uni. We spent a morning walking the grounds, feeling the vibe, then ducked into the uni café to take it all in. She loved it. We hope it inspires her to greatness. Afterwards, we wandered down King Street and could not believe how many different cuisines were packed into one stretch. Thai, Ethiopian, Italian, Vietnamese, Mexican. The kids were absolutely blown away. Newtown has this energy, creative and unpretentious, and it reminded us why we do what we do. Connecting people through flowers, even to places we have personal ties to, never gets old.
If you are looking for flower delivery to Newtown, you have come to the right place. We deliver through a network of partner florists who are real people with real shops, not a warehouse operation or an overnight courier service. Your flowers are made fresh by local experts and delivered the same day when you order before 2PM on weekdays. Flowers start from $54.95 and we have been doing this for over 18 years now.
To put it simply, Lily's Florist has a number of partner florists in and around Sydney's inner west, including Newtown and surrounding suburbs like Enmore, Erskineville, Camperdown, and Stanmore. These partners have real stores, hire real staff, and are trained florists who know their craft. Our flowers do not come from a production line or get posted overnight. They are made and delivered by people who take pride in what they do.
When you order flowers to Newtown, whether online or by phone, your order is routed to one of our partner florists based on the delivery postcode and what stock they have available. If one florist is running low on red roses, we route the order to the next closest florist who has them. It really is that simple. No middlemen shipping boxes across the country. Just fresh flowers made that morning and delivered that afternoon.

This model grew out of necessity. Back in 2007, running a florist shop in Kingscliff NSW, we kept getting calls for flowers to places we could not deliver. Taree. Townsville. Coffs Harbour. For months we said sorry and hung up. Then one quiet winter day, with barely $20 in the till, we thought, what if we found florists in those towns and asked them to help? Our first partner was The Flower Shed in Murwillumbah. I drove out with my daughter Asha, nervous as anything, baby in hand, rehearsing what I would say the whole way there. She broke a gift on the shop floor within 30 seconds of walking in, which was an icebreaker if ever there was one. The florist smiled and said yes. That single partnership became the foundation for Lily's Florist. Today we work with over 800 partner florists all across Australia, from Darwin down to Hobart and everywhere in between.
We take service seriously. So seriously that our team was recently awarded a Feefo Trusted Service Award for 2025, just like we did in 2024. To qualify, a business must receive at least 50 reviews with an average of 4 stars or higher in a 12 month period. We had over 3,000 reviews in the qualifying period, more than 60 times the minimum required. Feefo is independent, Google endorsed, and only collects reviews from verified customers who have actually placed an order. We cannot delete the bad ones or get our mates to write nice things. It is completely transparent.
Honestly, signing up to Feefo scared us a little when we first did it back in 2013. Flowers are subjective. What one person sees as romantic and lush, another might find over the top. Putting ourselves out there with zero control over what people would say took some guts. But it was worth it. The feedback helps us improve and gives you confidence that what you see in our reviews is real. We have collected over 22,000 verified reviews since we started with Feefo.

We are Australian owned and operated by a Mum and Dad. Our call centre is in Armidale NSW. All our staff are Australian. We do not send calls offshore or outsource to overseas teams. Business decisions are made by us, often at the dinner table or on the drive to netball practice. We do not have boardrooms, marketing departments, or a team of solicitors. That is not us. We are literally a family business with two kids, Asha who is almost 19 and Ivy who is 15, and most of what we do happens around family life.
You can add extras to your flower order like chocolates, teddy bears, or a bottle of sparkling wine. Same day delivery is available when you order before 2PM on weekdays. And if you want to chat to someone about your order, our Armidale team is ready to help.
Newtown sits right next to Sydney Uni, which makes it a brilliant spot to send graduation flowers. Whether someone has just finished a law degree, wrapped up their honours, or survived their first year, flowers are a thoughtful way to say well done. Given how much time we spent there with Ivy recently, walking the sandstone buildings and imagining her future, this one feels close to home. A bright bouquet waiting at their door after years of hard work, that is a moment worth creating.
Birthday flowers are always a winner in a suburb as vibrant as Newtown. Bright, bold arrangements suit the creative energy of the inner west. Think about all those terrace houses on the side streets, the artists, the musicians, the students, the young professionals sharing flats. A birthday delivery to Newtown is going to land well because the suburb has that vibe where people appreciate thoughtful gestures.
And sometimes you do not need a reason at all. Just because flowers are perfect for surprising a friend, a partner, or a neighbour who could use a lift. Maybe someone is going through a rough patch. Maybe you just want to say thanks. Maybe you walked past a florist window and thought of them. That is reason enough. Newtown is full of people who would appreciate a random act of kindness showing up at their door.
We are still that Mum and Dad team who started with a tiny shop in Kingscliff and a phone that would not stop ringing. We sold the shop in 2009, went fully online, and built something we never could have imagined back when we were turning away calls and wondering how we would pay the bills. Anna, who joined us 15 years ago as a florist, still works with us today as our bookkeeper. Our partner in Murwillumbah, that very first one, is still with us too. We have built relationships that have lasted nearly two decades because we treat our florists the way we would want to be treated.
When you order flowers through Lily's Florist, you are supporting a family business that has been doing this for over 18 years. Same day delivery. Real florists. Verified reviews. Fresh flowers made that morning, not shipped in a box from interstate. That is the Lily's Florist way.
