Why Supporting Local Flower Growers Matters
At Ireland’s Florist, our heart has always been for our community — for the people who make Sunbury what it is.
And that’s why supporting local growers means so much to us.
Every week we’re at the flower markets before the sun comes up, hand-picking the freshest blooms. But some of our favourite days are spent wandering through local flower farms — chatting with growers, walking through the rows, and seeing firsthand the care that goes into every stem.
It’s a reminder that flowers connect people. They tell stories, support families, and keep local communities thriving.
From Farm to Florist
When we buy from local growers, we know the hands that picked those blooms — hardworking families who pour love, time and passion into what they grow.
Their flowers don’t travel far. They’re fresh, vibrant, and full of life — the kind of blooms that remind you what “freshly picked” really means.
Supporting People, Not Just Flowers
Every bunch you buy from us helps support real people — from the local growers who nurture each crop, to the small family businesses who deliver them, to our own team who carefully arrange and deliver them to your door.
It’s a full circle of community, and we’re so proud to be part of it.
Sustainability, Naturally
Buying local means fewer transport miles, less waste, and a much smaller footprint on our planet.
It’s a simple, meaningful choice — and one that helps preserve the beauty of both our environment and our community.
The Magic of the Seasons
Every season brings something new — from ranunculus and tulips to dahlias, sunflowers and stunning natives.
Each bloom tells the story of our land, our climate, and the people who grow them right here in Victoria.
For the Heart of Sunbury
We’ll always believe that flowers are about people — about love, care, and connection.
When you choose locally grown flowers from Ireland’s Florist, you’re choosing to support the people behind the petals.
And that’s something truly beautiful.
Come by and see what’s in season this week.
Our flower bar is filled daily with blooms from local farms and markets — handpicked with love, for the heart of Sunbury.
