About Flowers Alley
A Small Business With Heart, Delivering Joy Across Melbourne
Flowers Alley’s mission statement is "Seeing beauty in every corner."
We love exploring every corner of Melbourne, and are constantly amazed and inspired by the quirky neighbourhood history, the wonderful people, and the deep-rooted cultures throughout our brilliant city.
Seeing the beauty at every corner often means sending warm messages with flowers to your loved ones in Melbourne.
The past few years have been a challenging time for Melburnians, especially for those with loved ones interstate or overseas, or are otherwise separated by distance.
Celebrating special moments together, sharing the love, and simply letting someone special know that you’re in their thoughts is what we’re all about here at Flowers Alley.
Our gorgeous flowers are the perfect way to connect, share, and feel joy, even when we’re apart. We know that with every bouquet we deliver, we’re spreading a little bit more love throughout our amazing city.
Flowers Alley creates a range of beautiful living gifts, from stunning floral bouquets and vase arrangements to lush pot plants, so no matter who you’re shopping for or what occasion you’re marking, do it with flowers. Send flowers from Cheltenham today with Flowers Alley.
Meet the Founders
James and Lyna
James and Lyna love exploring their city, and it’s while they’re surrounded by nature that they get the inspiration for their work.
With a background in creating bespoke floral designs for weddings and events, Lyna loves playing around with different seasonal flowers, fresh colours, and natural elements. Her favourite style is cottage garden.
James is her partner, and seeing the passion she has for floristry, joined Lyna on this journey to try something new! They started their business in August 2021, from their very own kitchen table. Business exploded quickly, and soon after, they moved into their warehouse in Cheltenham in November 2021.
While Lyna is in the warehouse creating beautiful arrangements, you’ll find James either behind the computer working on systems or out on the road delivering. James loves seeing people’s faces light up when they receive their flowers, making this a truly rewarding, positive, and enjoyable job. One day he will remember more flower names!
James and Lyna hope in the near future to grow their team as they expand into the wedding and events industry.
How We Incorporate Our “Seeing Beauty in Every Corner” Philosophy
We take our mission seriously; it’s more than just a slogan or an eye-catching statement.
We are committed to accountability and taking action, and we do so in the following ways.
We give back to our community
Here at Flowers Alley, we believe in giving back to the land we take from. So from every online order that’s processed, we donate a certain percentage to local organisations.
All donation outlets are updated on our Instagram, so make sure you follow along to find out how YOU have helped us support this community.
We also support our other floristry pals on Instagram because we see them as inspiration and neighbours - not competitors!
We say NO to floral foam
The last thing we want to do is damage Australia’s beautiful land.
Sadly however, others in our industry still rely on floral foam - or phenol-formaldehyde - which negatively impacts the environment and our health.
Wildlife dangerously try to digest it and floral foam is a listed carcinogen, meaning it is known to provoke cancerous growth in the body.
By choosing Flowers Alley, our customers support this worldwide campaign and say no to floral foam.
The #NoFloralFoam campaign has gained traction all over the world, and we’re proud to play a role in the campaign by utilising more sustainable options. Instead of floral foam, Flowers Alley uses chicken wire to fix flowers in place, where needed, but in some cases don’t need anything at all!
