Flower Delivery Wurtulla: Same Day

All Occasion Flowers Online to Wurtulla QLD

Two years ago I spent three days at Caloundra Indoor Sports Stadium watching my youngest daughter Ivy play shooter for South Coast at state titles. She was twelve, selected from every school between the QLD border and Logan, and her team ended up winning the whole thing. Still gives me goosebumps thinking about it.

But it wasn't the netball that changed how I see the Sunshine Coast. It was the parents.

Three days of sitting with families from Kawana Waters, Mooloolaba, Maroochydore, Buderim, Pelican Waters. Someone's cousin lived in Dicky Beach. Someone else's best mate was in Currimundi. Everyone seemed to know everyone through someone. And Wurtulla kept coming up in conversations, people ducking home between games because it was only ten minutes away, grabbing lunch from somewhere on Nicklin Way, picking up a kid from a mate's place before the afternoon session.

That tournament taught me something I should have realised years earlier. The Sunshine Coast isn't a collection of separate suburbs, it's one community stretched along the beach, and Wurtulla is right in the thick of it.

Why That Matters for Flowers

Since 2009, we've been taking flower orders for the Sunshine Coast. Back then I was sitting in a tiny shop in Kingscliff NSW that we'd bought in 2006, a florist and gift shop on Marine Parade that we had zero idea how to run. The previous owner had taken out a Yellow Pages advertisement (yeah, the book) just before selling, and we kept getting 40 plus calls a day for flowers to places we couldn't deliver to. Sunshine Coast calls came through constantly. Caloundra, Maroochydore, Mooloolaba, Kawana, and yes, Wurtulla.

* This is our shop in Kingscliff in 2006, our accountant said don't buy it, but we did anyways. We went fully online with flowers 4 years later.

For months we turned those calls away, said sorry, we can't help. Then one freezing June day in 2007, with maybe $25 in the till from an entire day's trade, we thought to ourselves, what if we stopped saying no?

We nervously called a Sunshine Coast florist, explained who we were and what we were trying to do, asked if they'd help us with orders in exchange for a small commission covered by adding a few extra stems to each bouquet. No fees, no catches. She said yes. Then another florist said yes. Then another.

By 2009 we'd built enough partnerships to launch Lily's Florist as a national brand, and the Sunshine Coast was one of our foundation areas. Wurtulla has been a delivery location since pretty much the beginning.

The Ginger Factory Detour

A few years before Ivy's netball tournament, we took the whole family up the Sunshine Coast for a proper holiday, staying in Montville for a few days. Asha and Ivy were younger then, maybe 14 and 10 or thereabouts, and one gloriously sunny afternoon we ended up at the Ginger Factory in Yandina.

You know that smell when you pull into the car park? Unmistakable. The girls absolutely lost it over the ginger beer factory tour and the Overboard boat ride. Ivy went on that thing three times, soaking wet each time, laughing her head off. Asha, being the older and slightly more dignified one at that point, pretended she was too cool for it but ended up going twice anyway.

We spent way too much money in the gift shop. Ginger jam, ginger chocolates, ginger ice cream (the ginger and macadamia flavour was incredible), more ginger products than any family could reasonably consume. Drove back to Montville with the girls buzzing on sugar and excitement, through that beautiful hinterland countryside that reminded us exactly why we left Sydney all those years ago.

Different trip, same region, same feeling. The Sunshine Coast gets under your skin.

Who We Actually Are

There's a photo of us, the whole family. Siobhan and me (Andrew), plus Asha who's now 18 and about to graduate Year 12, and Ivy who's 14 and still playing netball, still the one who'd go on a boat ride three times if given the chance. We're not a corporation. We don't have a marketing team or a boardroom or strategic plans. Business decisions get made at the dinner table, or in the car on the way to netball training, or sometimes while watching the girls play on a Tuesday night at Carrara.

That's Lily's Florist. A Mum and Dad business that started from a shop we were told not to buy, grew into a network of over 800 partner florists across Australia, and somehow ended up watching our daughter win state titles in Caloundra while thinking about flower deliveries to Wurtulla.

Wurtulla Flower Delivery, Practically Speaking

Same day delivery runs Monday to Saturday. Order before 2pm weekdays or 10am Saturday and your flowers get made that day by a real Sunshine Coast florist, someone with a real shop who knows the difference between beachfront and beach side, who understands the humidity and the afternoon storms that roll in from the Glasshouse Mountains without warning.

Our standard delivery fee is $16.95. Your flowers won't come from a warehouse or get shipped overnight with Australia Post. They're crafted locally, delivered locally, fresh.

Feefo Reviews (The Unfiltered Kind)

In 2019 we partnered with Feefo, a review platform endorsed by Google where only verified customers can leave feedback. We can't delete the bad ones. We can't get our mates to write nice things. Every review, good or ordinary, sits there for anyone to read.

In 2024 we received over 3,000 reviews and earned a Feefo Trusted Service Award. To qualify you need at least 50 reviews with an average of 4 stars or above. We got more than 60 times that minimum. Flowers are subjective, what's beautiful to one person might be too much for another, so putting ourselves out there with zero control was genuinely terrifying. But it keeps us honest, and Sunshine Coast customers in particular seem to value reliability over flashiness.
