Which Flowers Suit a Rockville Hospital Room: Go Low on Scent
Anna, qualified florist | on what a small room does with perfume
Scent decides a hospital bunch before colour does. An oriental lily or a few stems of stock fill a small room inside an hour, and the next bed never asked for it. Roses, gerberas, carnations and chrysanthemums carry very little, so they sit easily beside someone trying to sleep.
Chemotherapy often makes people sensitive to strong smells, so a perfume a healthy nose loves can turn a stomach. I learned how far lilies carry at Salt in Kingscliff, the morning after a bucket of stargazers opened overnight and the whole back room smelled of them. Save them for the homecoming, and pinch the anthers off as each one opens.
If They're in a Ward, in Care or Saying Goodbye in Rockville
Rockville has a private hospital, an aged care home and a primary school inside its streets, so flowers sent here go to a ward, a room in care or a family kitchen. For a birthday at a family house, our bestselling birthday flowers go out the same day.
Someone's in St Andrew's. Can Flowers Go to the Ward?
Yes. You've got a ward number off a text and you're three hours away, or three states. If they're staying in, put their full name and ward in the notes and get well flowers go to the front desk on North Street; from what we've seen, staff take them up from there. In for the day for treatment at the John Stedman unit? Send thinking of you flowers to the house instead.
For the ward, send it already in a vase. In 2008 I carried a wrapped bunch into the old Byron Bay Hospital on Shirley Street, terribly pleased with myself, and the nurse stood it in a plastic water jug because that was all she had. The card can just say "See you when you're home."
Anna's pick: keep the flowers about one and a half times the height of the vase and no wider than a dinner plate. The 3 Gerberas In A Vase fit beside the water jug and the tissues.
Send Nan's Birthday Flowers to Her Room at Northridge Salem
Nan's turning ninety at Northridge Salem on Holberton Street. Put her full name and room in the notes, and say if the flowers are for her room or the family lunch, because reception tend to know residents by name before they know the room. Our 80th and 90th birthday flowers suit a room already full of photos.
Vase water in care rarely gets changed every second day. A carnation goes a fortnight on very little, and an arrangement brings its own container, so nothing tips when a walking frame clips the table. The Australian Native Arrangement is built that way.
Service Flowers, Then Something for the House
The notice says the Toowoomba Garden of Remembrance on Ruthven Street, or McGrath Funerals on Mylne Street, and you can't be there. Funeral flowers go to the funeral director before the service, so add their name and the service time. Sympathy flowers for the home suit the week after, once the casseroles stop. It feels like too little to send, and it still tells them you knew. "So sorry. Thinking of you all." is plenty for the card.
Anna's tip: white shows every bruise by about day four, so keep the Gorgeous Whites Bunch in a cool room out of the afternoon sun and it stays clean longest.
A Teacher, a Neighbour, or No Reason at All
Plenty of orders don't fit a heading: a teacher at Rockville State School in the last week of term, the neighbour who fed the dog, a friend who's had a rotten month. Just because flowers exist for exactly that.
Anna's call: the Lovely Lilac & Lime Bunch. Soft purple and fresh lime green sit well in almost any room.

In before 2pm on a weekday, and it can reach the ward desk this afternoon.
Shop Hospital FlowersThe Notes Field Does Most of the Work
Same-day cutoffs
2pm on weekdays, so our partner florist in Toowoomba has the afternoon to make it and get it out.
10am Saturday, a shorter trading day.
No Sunday delivery, except Mother's Day.
Later orders go on the date you pick at checkout.
What the notes need
St Andrew's: the patient's full name and ward. Northridge Salem: full name and room. Garden of Remembrance or McGrath's: the funeral director and service time. Rockville State School: the teacher's full name.
Who takes it in
The front desk at St Andrew's, reception at Northridge Salem, the funeral director before a service. At a house, whoever answers, or a shaded spot you name. Get it in before the cutoff and it travels today.
Silence Usually Means the Flowers Arrived
Once you've paid, your part's done. Our partner florist in Toowoomba makes it on the delivery day. If nobody rings to say thanks, don't fret. I took a lot of those worried calls in my years on the phones, and the flowers were nearly always on the table long before anyone thought to ring.
Andrew, on the hours between checkout and the ward desk
Between 2006 and 2009 I stood at a lot of hospital front desks, John Flynn and Tweed mostly. From what I saw, flowers get logged, then go up when someone is free. If the patient is in theatre or having scans, they wait at the ward desk a few hours. In our experience that is the usual hold-up, and the flowers sit safely at the desk.
To check on an order, ring our team on 1300 360 469, 7am to 6pm weekdays and from 10am Saturday, or email [email protected]. If anything looks wrong when it lands, send us a photo that day.
You pick the flowers and write the card. Getting them to the right bed, room or chapel is our job.
