Sitting in your Northgate office realising you forgot an anniversary? Stuck at work panicking about flowers for your mum? Order by 2pm weekdays and fresh, stunning flowers will arrive in Northgate today. Hand delivered by a real Brisbane florist who knows their natives from their lilies. We're not warehouse flowers shipped overnight via Australia Post. We're a family run business partnering with real florist shops across Brisbane since 2009. Our first Brisbane partner was just down the road in Sandgate, which means Northgate has been on our radar for over 15 years. One call to 1300 360 469 or two minutes online.

* Where it all started. Our Kingscliff shop in 2006, before we knew flowers would take us to Northgate.
Asha, our eldest, plays netball for the Gold Coast Titans at Nissan Arena, so we're driving up from Kingscliff most weekends. Those trips became our "city fix" over the years. Sometimes we grab coffee in Nundah. Sometimes we end up in Sandgate after a game because it reminds us how this Brisbane journey started.
Our first Brisbane partner was Brighton Florist on Deagon Street in Sandgate. In 2009 we approached the owner with what was, honestly, a fairly odd proposition. We'd built a flower delivery business from a shop we'd bought in Kingscliff in 2006 and needed florists in other areas. She said yes. That single partnership taught us Brisbane functions less like one city and more like villages stitched together by main roads and train lines.
Northgate sits between Sandgate, Nundah, and Virginia. Our partner florists here know the hospital delivery rules, know which apartment blocks have concierges, know that Northgate residents often prefer morning deliveries before they leave for the CBD.

* Still a Mum and Dad business after 18 years. We make decisions over dinner while the kids eat pasta.
Andrew grew up in Sydney. Strathfield and Summer Hill, with summers at grandparents' places in Manly and Bellevue Hill. His Poppa George used to take him fishing off the rocks at Bronte when he was six. Small details stick with you, and that's true of flowers too.
Anna, our florist with over 15 years on the bench before she moved into our office as bookkeeper, explains the difference. "Most people don't realise roses have a tell. When the sepals fold back to about ninety degrees from the bud, that's when the flower has enough sugar stored to open properly. I check this every time at the market."
For sympathy arrangements, Anna recommends softer palettes. "Pure white can feel clinical. Peach and cream tones provide warmth without being inappropriate. Grieving families notice it even if they can't articulate why."

* Two years running. Over 23,000 verified reviews since we partnered with Feefo in 2013.
We signed up with Feefo in 2013 because we wanted proper feedback. Only people who actually bought flowers can leave a review. No fake reviews, no mates doing favours.
To get a Feefo Trusted Service Award you need at least 50 reviews at 4 stars or above yearly. We had over 3,000 in 2024 alone.
"Flowers were booked from Melbourne for delivery in Brisbane the same day. Service and assistance over the telephone very professional. Flowers were beautiful."
"Very reliable and considerate company, the proprietor very kindly rang me to verify a detail! And the flowers were beautiful."
We're still small enough that sometimes Andrew or I personally call if something needs clarifying. Try getting that from a warehouse operation.

Florist's Choice works well if you're unsure. Tell us the occasion and budget, the florist selects the best blooms that day.
Birthday flowers are always popular. Bright arrangements do well. Gerberas, roses, seasonal blooms depending on what's freshest.
Native flowers have grown in popularity. Banksias, waratahs, flowering gum. Anna's tip: "Natives with woody stems need the base gently crushed before they go in water. The wood is non porous so you're increasing surface area for water uptake."
Roses remain the classic for romance and sympathy both.
We bought a struggling florist shop in Kingscliff in 2006. Our accountant said don't. We did it anyway, pregnant with our first daughter, no experience in flowers. The previous owner had taken out a Yellow Pages ad and suddenly we were getting 40 plus calls a day for deliveries to places like Brisbane we couldn't fulfil.
That frustration became opportunity. Our first Brisbane partner was Brighton Florist in Sandgate, less than ten minutes from Northgate. Fifteen years later we work with over 800 florist shops across Australia. Still a Mum and Dad business. Asha graduated Year 12 in 2025. Ivy turns 15 in February and still drags us to netball at HDNA Mudgeeraba most weeks.
Order by 2pm weekdays or 10am Saturdays for same day delivery. Call 1300 360 469 or order online.
Siobhan co-founded Lily's Florist with Andrew in 2009. What began as a struggling Kingscliff shop transformed into Australia's one of the largest independent flower delivery network with over 800 partner florists. Frequent trips to Brisbane for netball at Nissan Arena have given the family genuine connection to Brisbane's inner north, including Northgate.
