Our story

Started with six buckets

Margot started Petalune at a Saturday market with flowers from her aunt's garden. Ten years later we still buy from that garden, and from ten more growers like it.

What we believe

Three small promises

Seasonal first

We design with what's growing, not what's flown in.

Low waste

No floral foam, compostable wraps, leftovers donated.

Fair to growers

We pay our growers upfront for the whole season.

Kind words

Why people come back

I ordered for my mum's seventieth from two time zones away. The photo they sent before delivery made me cry at my desk.

Our ceremony arch looked like it had grown there. Every guest asked who did the flowers, and the peonies lasted through brunch the next day.

The fortnightly subscription is the best thing on my kitchen table. I've learned the names of twenty flowers I'd never heard of.

Come and say hello.

The kettle is on, the cooler is humming and there are always a few spare stems for visitors.
