Spring has arrived at Thistle & Fern 🌸
Cecil and Ash gorgeous home grown flowers @cecilandash
There’s something extra special about spring in the flower shop.
The days are getting warmer, gardens are bursting into life, and our buckets are filling with some of the most beautiful blooms of the year many of them grown right here locally.
We feel incredibly lucky to work alongside some wonderful local growers who bring us beautiful, seasonal flowers straight from the farm to our shop.
Grown locally, loved locally
This spring, we’ve been enjoying gorgeous blooms from Cecil & Ash, who have been supplying us with an abundance of seasonal favourites including ranunculus, stock, anemones, thryptomene and wax, just to name a few.
There’s something so lovely about knowing where our flowers have come from, and seeing the seasons change through the blooms arriving at the shop each week.
We’re also lucky to have Outback Yack supplying us with beautiful Australian natives. Their unique textures, colours and seasonal varieties are the perfect addition to our arrangements and bring a little piece of the Australian landscape into your home.
Whenever possible, we love choosing flowers that are seasonal, locally grown and at their absolute best.

-Kate from Twist Creek Flora
-Tanya from Wandi Waratah Flowers
With Spring well and truly here… Christmas is on the horizon
It might feel a little early to say it, but Christmas will be here before we know it!
Now is the perfect time to start thinking about those special people on your Christmas list and we’re already dreaming up beautiful ways to make gifting a little easier.
Flowers are always a lovely gift, whether it’s a simple seasonal posy to brighten someone’s day, a beautiful arrangement for a host, or something extra special for someone who deserves a little love.
And if flowers aren’t quite what you’re looking, we have a beautiful gifting range, which can be enjoyed by themselves or in a carefully curated gift hamper.. from little treasures to thoughtful local gifts that can be paired with flowers, chocolates and cards.
Keep an eye on our shop and socials as we introduce more of our Christmas gifting ideas over the coming weeks.
Our Christmas Wreath workshops will be announced very soon so keep your eyes peeled on our socials for when tickets get released! These sell out every year!
Whether you’re popping in for a bunch of flowers, looking for something beautiful for your home, or simply want to wander through the shop and see what’s fresh, we’d love to see you.
Thank you, as always, for supporting our little flower shop and, in turn, the wonderful local growers who help fill it with flowers.
Here’s to spring, local flowers, sunny days and the beginning of a very special festive season.
With love,
Miranda
