New baby flowers for a Scullin house: pick ones that look after themselves
Anna, qualified florist | on what a house with a newborn can take
A house with a newborn has no spare hands, so the flowers need to look after themselves. On the bench at Salt in Kingscliff I learned what new-baby flowers have to be: nothing that sheds, nothing heavy with scent, nothing that needs a vase found at two in the morning. Gypsophila drops its tiny florets all over a kitchen bench once it gets warm and stressed. Waxflower holds on to every one.
An arrangement in foam is the answer, because the foam is the vase. Pour a cup of water into the foam every couple of days and the stems keep drinking. Canberra winters help, too: in a room sitting around fifteen to eighteen degrees, a rose gives ten to fourteen days.
Scullin Flower Delivery: Five Places and What the Notes Need
Pick where it's going
Each one needs a different line in the delivery notes.
Any house in Scullin
Eight in ten Scullin homes are separate houses (2021 Census), so most flowers sent into Scullin go to a house. Either someone is home, or the notes name a spot.
Notes: a mobile that answers, and a safe spot out of the afternoon sun, like the carport or behind the side gate.
North Canberra Hospital or Calvary Bruce Private
Two hospitals on one campus on Mary Potter Circuit. For a new mum, say maternity. Choose new baby flowers
Notes: which hospital, the ward, and their full name.
Southern Cross Early Childhood School
Kindergarten to Year 2, inside Scullin itself. Send it on a school day.
Notes: the teacher's full name and their class.
St Matthew's, 12 Chewings Street, Page, or the Bluegum Chapel, 60 Nettlefold Street, Belconnen
St Matthew's sits just across Chewings Street from Scullin. The Bluegum Chapel is William Cole Funerals' chapel.
Notes: the venue, the service time, and the family's surname.
Villaggio Sant'Antonio (35 Burkitt Street) or Bill McKenzie Gardens (23 Burkitt Street)
Two aged care homes on the one street in Page, so the street name alone will not get it to the right room.
Notes: the home's name, their room number, and their full name.
Three of these five sit just outside Scullin, in Bruce, Page and Belconnen, so the suburb on the order will not find them. The notes have to.
Flowers for Birthdays, Babies, Wards and Funerals, Delivered Same Day
Flowers sent into Scullin tend to be for a birthday, a new baby, someone in hospital or a goodbye. The first three cards cover those, the fourth covers everything else, and our flower bunches suit any of them.
When the Birthday House Is Empty All Day
It's her birthday, she's at work, and the house is empty. The flowers still go there; they just need somewhere to wait. Put a mobile that answers and a safe spot in the notes, the carport or behind the side gate, so the florist can ring before leaving them. If she's your mum, our birthday flowers for Mum are the obvious start, or go with the bestselling birthday flowers.
Anna's pick: the Australian Natives Bunch, for flowers that may sit in that safe spot a while. Woody native stems take a wait in Canberra air without fuss, and once they're in a vase they often go for weeks.
Get Well and New Baby Flowers for Mary Potter Circuit
Someone's just had a baby, or surgery, and all you've got is a text that says Bruce. In our experience the ward desk takes delivery and the staff carry the flowers in, so a full name and a ward do the work. Our hospital flowers suit the ward; if they'll be home by tomorrow, send get well flowers to the house instead.
Gerberas carry next to no scent, which is what a shared room wants, and the 3 Gerberas In A Vase turn up already standing in water, so nobody on the ward goes hunting for a jug.
In the summer of 2008 a docket at the Kingscliff shop said Margaret, hospital, Tweed Heads. I took it to The Tweed Hospital on Powell Street. Margaret was at John Flynn on Inland Drive, Tugun, over the Queensland border, where it was an hour earlier, so technically I arrived before I left. Mary Potter Circuit has two hospitals and no border. Name the right one.
Card idea: "Welcome to the world, little one. Love from all of us in Perth."
Sending Funeral Flowers to St Matthew's on Chewings Street
The notice says St Matthew's, Page, and you've never been. It's the Catholic church just across Chewings Street from Scullin. If the notice names the Bluegum Chapel on Nettlefold Street or Norwood Park in Mitchell instead, the same rule applies: put the venue, the service time and the family's surname in the notes and choose from our funeral flowers, or send sympathy flowers to the home in the quieter week after.
Anna, on what sits at the front of a church
A sheath lies flat and a wreath stands on an easel, both made for the front of a church or chapel in a way a vase of water never was. Whites and creams sit quietly at the front, and the White Lily & Rose Sheath is the one I'd steer toward.
Card idea: "Thinking of you all, with love from Melbourne."
A Kindy Teacher's Thank You, or No Reason at All?
It's the end of the year at Southern Cross Early Childhood School, and one teacher got your kid through kindy. Put their full name and class in the notes and send thank you flowers on a school day. No occasion at all? That's what just because flowers are for.
Anna has a view on this one. With no theme to match, the Florists Choice Bright Mixed Bunch lets the florist use whatever came in best that morning, which is the whole point of Florist's Choice.
Or browse by colour, milestone or who it's for
Order before 2pm on a weekday and it's in Scullin this afternoon. Arrangements come ready to stand.
Shop Arrangements, No Vase NeededSame-Day Delivery Cutoffs, Notes and Who Takes It In
Same-day cutoffs
2pm weekdays, which leaves the florist the afternoon to make your order up and run it out.
10am Saturday, a shorter trading day.
No Sunday delivery, except Mother's Day.
Later than that, choose any date at checkout.
What the notes need
A house: a mobile that answers and a safe spot. Mary Potter Circuit: which hospital, the ward and their full name. St Matthew's or the Bluegum Chapel: the service time and surname. Burkitt Street: Villaggio Sant'Antonio or Bill McKenzie Gardens, and the room.
Who takes it in
At a house, whoever answers, or the safe spot you named. At the hospitals, usually the ward desk. At a church or chapel, generally the funeral director's team. At the Burkitt Street homes and at Southern Cross, generally the front desk or office. Order before 2pm and it reaches Scullin today.
If It Goes Quiet After You Order, Here's Why
You get an email confirming the order. A florist in or close to Scullin makes the flowers on the delivery day, and in our experience rings the mobile in the notes if nobody answers.
If something isn't right, ring 1300 360 469, 7am to 6pm weekdays and from 10am Saturday (the 02 number at the top reaches the same team), or email [email protected] with a photo the same day.
Siobhan, on new parents who go quiet
New parents don't text back, and I took that worried call hundreds of times between 2006 and 2011, usually from a grandmother two days on, sure the flowers never got there. They had. Nobody in that house had looked at a phone. Best news, worst sleep, and the flowers somewhere in the middle of both. Now and then a bunch did wait at a ward desk while Mum was with the midwife, so give it the afternoon.
One email, one delivery, and if it's the new-baby kind, with luck a photo of the flowers beside a very small person.
