Terms of Business for Florists

The Wellington Flower Collective (WFC)  is delighted to work with florists and floral stylists that want the freshest flowers and foliage grown locally as sustainably and organically as possible. Flowers from WFC growers are hand-grown and picked fresh to order. We specialise in smaller quantities of the finest varieties to create naturalistic and garden-style designs and love to work in partnership with florists to find the blooms that will make their work unique.

Each of our growers works independently but work together to fulfil large orders and ensure continuous supply across the season. 

Flower Availability

We do not offer a specific availability list from each of our growers although write to our registered floral buyers each month to let them know what’s coming up for harvest over the coming weeks. Detailed availability and pricing is available on request either direct from growers or by emailing hello@wellingtonflowercollective.co.nz.

Enquiries for weddings, events and flower promotions should be submitted as soon as you are able so that special varieties e.g. dahlia and roses, or specific colours can be reserved. All orders are reserved on a ‘first-in, first-served basis’. An indication of final availability is given 10-14 days in advance.

Do contact us if you are looking for something a little different or to add a special touch to a design as our growers have a massive variety of flowers and foliage, often in small numbers.
