bloom buckets
flowers for the people
[Available from December onwards, get in touch to book DIY buckets for your events]
A seasonal selection of flowers for you to arrange yourself.
One bloom bucket will fill multiple vases - approx 6 smaller vases or 3-4 medium size vases.
The selection of flowers will be whatever is looking good on the day. You will get a mix of colours and varieties of flower. If you would like something specific - colours or particular varieties of flower, please email us and we will see what we can do.
We have a range of ceramic flower frogs available for rent. These flower frogs make arranging very easy and look fabulous on the table. A bloom bucket will easily fill 3 flower frogs. You can pick up the flower frogs when you pick up your flowers and rent them for a maximum of three days. They need to be returned either to our farm in Whakamarama or to Tauranga Central. We do not pick up flower frogs. Please see our flower frog listing for further rental terms.
Please bring your own bucket. If you do not have your own bucket, we can include one for an extra $5. We do not loan out buckets for return at a later date as we often never see them again.
Half buckets (20-25 stems) are $40 (BYO bucket for me to transfer flowers into), and $45 including a bucket for you to keep
Full buckets (40-50 stems) are $80 (BYO bucket for me to transfer flowers into), and $85 including a bucket for you to keep
Pick up points are in Whakamarama and Tauranga. Get in touch if you need something delivered in Tauranga.
We designed our bloom buckets for people just like us - who like to host, to get out their best mismatched crockery, who like to break bread with friends, old and new, who want to tie their table together with freshly picked local flowers and sit and talk till the sun has gone down.
Great for: long table lunches & dinners, arrangements in guest bedrooms and on kitchen tables, hens dos, weddings.
How bloom buckets work:
Order below and select the date you want to pick up your blooms. We suggest either the day before or the day of your event. You will need a shady, cool space for the flowers to rest overnight if you are picking up the day before.
On the day of pick up, we pick you a bucket of what is looking good in the garden. You will always get a seasonal mix of colours and varieties. You arrange to pick up the buckets from us either at our farm in Whakamarama or in Tauranga Central. We can deliver for an extra cost and depending on availability. Please supply your own bucket for us to transfer your flowers into on pick up or delivery.
Once we have delivered the flowers it is up to you how you would like to arrange them. Get some friends together and have some fun making some table top arrangements or find a selection of your own jars and vases and make some arrangements yourself. We have a range of flower frogs available to rent or buy if you would like a chic, minimalist option to arrange your flowers into.
We love to see how our flowers get used so feel free to send pictures through to us.
