Beautiful Stock


As the weather warms up, flowers like stock are in their last weeks so we are taking the chance to enjoy them this Friday. They are locally grown and have a fabulous perfume. They are very pretty and most requests that come in for this flower is because it reminds them of an old fashioned garden. Its formal name is Matthiola – after an Italian physician and botanist. They are a long lasting flower but as they have succulent stems, you need to be careful to change the water frequently. With a beautiful clove like perfume, they are lovely in your home or sent as a gift.

(Note: a seasonal bunch is 5 stems and may be any one of the colours in the photo above)
The $30 bunch is actually a stem this week. A gorgeous long stem of cymbidium flowers – in 3 colours, pink, white or pale green, they are an elegant and beautiful selection.

A large double bunch of lisianthus is the $40 bunch selection. They continue to be beautiful and with a mixture of flowers and buds, they continue to open over many days.
