Gosh it’s been so long since last post…It’s a busy summer, and we’re glad to see everyone’s trying best to make plans and make life beautiful - despite so many uncertainties ahead 🤷‍♀️

We deeply appreciate all your business in the past year and all those we’ve already worked together with in the new year.

Sending the very late but warm greetings!

An elderly couple visited the shop a few weeks ago, wanting us to remake the dried flowers on the roof of this wee cottage, which they have kept for 30 years! They wished the arrangement in similar size and colours as it was - we made it with a feeling of respect and they were happy with it. Wondering how many years our flowers can last on it?? 😁

New installations behind the counter
(Well not really “new”… two pieces had been there for months while the third one was only done last week as there was seldom time for creativity or a clear counter when the shop was open.)

FIFTY YEARS OF FLOWERS

HISTORY

The Downie name has been associated with the marketing of cut flowers in New Zealand for more than half a century.

Robert William Downie started the business on Mount Pleasant in the early 1950's when he began growing and wholesaling a number of cut flower crops. Later he entered the auction market, as a commission buyer, purchasing flowers on behalf of retail florists from Kaitaia to the Bluff, packing and despatching these initially by rail in wooden boxes and later in cardboard cartons by road and air.
