This is a great little flower shop! Even though the shop is small, its range is big and always full…read morewith really healthy, good quality flowers. The prices seem very reasonable to me, sometimes you can get 10 red roses for $10! The service is fantastic, everyone that works there has a vast knowledge of flowers and they are always willing to help with any questions you may have. I went in on Valentine's day, and even though they looked super busy, things were running like clockwork, all the customers in-store were being served, as well as ones on the phone and others that had pre-ordered, I was very very impressed!

Why is it for me all my favourite florists are the ones run by Korean's. Is it that they have some…read moremagic touch that they apply to their floral arrangements that takes my breath away and appeals to me so much that I got to use them instead of some other one down the road owned by non - Korean!!! I can name 3 Korean owned in Auckland that I have used at one time or another more often than any others over the past years. I won't name the other two as I am writing this review about this one , not any other. And I have had the need to use this one very very recently. Unfortunately though I use this one when I have to go buy flowers for someone at work , never for personal reasons, though I have used the other two for that. I will go here instead of my works preferred florist up the road in Remuera ( i am a bad employee , not following company protocols! )as this one over the time I have used it has produced great bouquets , all flowers are good quality, given excellent service and the owner is super friendly and even will greet you by your name when she remembers it. And the price is not too bad either. One day I will go here to buy flowers for my own reasons not for others....I am sure my wife will appreciate that greatly!!

Davina and the team at Vida Flores is fantastic for Special Event flowers - adding that special…read moresomething without costing an arm and a leg. I used Vida Flores to do some statement "pieces" for a recent party and got a lot of comments and requests for "who had done the flowers". A very large amethyst vase/hurricane lamp from Ambiance was filled with Stocks in shades of purple and mauve, a bowl of pale mauve roses and another of Icelandic poppies were among the standout pieces. I have seen some other functions that Davina has done the flowers for and am always amazed at the creativity and the result. I would definitely recommend using Vida Flores for an event or when you want to "say it with flowers"!!

Vida Flores recently did the flowers for my mum's birthday soiree we had at home. The lovely owner,…read moreDavina personally came over the day before the event and whipped up the bouquets onsite - which, considering we live on a the shore, would have been a bit of a trek. I couldn't believe: a) how quickly she whipped up each arrangement b) how easy she made it look c) how stunning the final result was (see pictures) This will definitely be my first port of call next time i'm in the market for flowers! Oh, and apparently they also have a 'flower school' where you can learn how to make gorgeous DIY arrangements at home. Count me in!

I'm just going to put it out there - I LOVE Florists. For starters, who doesn't love being…read moresurprised with a big bunch of fresh flowers! Noone, that who. Whether is a birthday, anniversary or just to tell someone that you're thinking of them, they are perfect for every occasion. On top of this fresh flowers do wonders in a room. I genuinely find I am happier when i've got a bunch in a vase. Ok, so now that I have voiced my love of flowers, let's talk about Roses specifically. Roses is as good as a local florist gets. Firstly, their staff are super knowledgable, helpful and they listen to what you want. Secondly, they always have a gorgeous range of flowers and a couple of unique plants. And thirdly, their card range is legit! On my most recent visit I also discovered that they have those washable paper bag/pot type things, you know the ones that you see in all the trendy cafes these days. I got a white one with big black crosses and have put a large orchid in it - looks wonderful! Unfortunately, Roses is a bit of a trek for me but if you live in the area and are looking for a florist this should mos def be your no. 1 port of call.

I was organising a pageant for the African community in Auckland as part of a fundraising…read moreinitiative for the African Welfare. Everything was running smoothly until it hit me that I hadn't ordered any flowers for the winners. All I had done was write budget that included 3 bouquets of flowers for $50. With the amount I was willing to spend, I wasn't expecting anything amazing. I ended up calling Roses on Friday afternoon to arrange 3 bouquets to be picked up on Saturday at 2pm. I told the florist to surprise me and just give me what they could. On saturday, the day of the pageant I got so overwhelmed I forgot to pick up the flowers. Thankfully I got a call and when I explained I wouldn't make it to the florist before it closed, the florist offered to leave the flowers at the shop next door to be picked up and I could leave the money there. When the flowers finally arrived to the venue, they where so beautiful and I could not believe I had only spent $50.

When choosing to buy flowers for a loved one, friend or even yourself, I would recommend heading to…read moreWild Bunch located in the heart of the Remuera shops. Here they have a beautiful variety of flowers and the scents are sensational when you first set foot into this little store. The ladies who work here are always willing to help put the most perfect bunch of flowers together to matter the occasion. They also deliver to central Auckland areas, which is perfect if you're wanting to surprise someone or haven't had time to pop over and give them the flowers yourself. It's a lot easier I find to go into the store and tell the ladies how much exactly you're wanting to spend and what colours you're after than doing it online. I find the options online are a lot more expensive. But if its efficiency and reliability you're after, than by all means go on to the Wild Bunch web site and check out what stunning bunches they have on offer.

This florist is really cute. There's lots of amazing bunches of flowers for that special someone,…read moreyour mum, or even just for yourself. It's amazing what a bunch of flowers can do for your soul. The best thing about this florist is that they don't just do bouqets they actually do potted plants too. This is such a great idea because as much as I love flowers I hate getting rid of them when they die. It's a bit of a sad waste of money sometimes. Whereas these potted plans (providing you have a green thumb) will stay with you for so much longer. The ultimate gift that keeps on giving. They also sell cute pot plants that are really different to what you see in most garden centres. So if you're looking for a little something different for your house head here! The florist is also really helpful when you're trying to make a decision on what to get.

We came around the end of tulip season but still got to see the tulips and so many other beautiful flowers as we wandered through the gardens for over an hour. There are also native birds which you can hear singing amongst the trees, it is really idyllic. There is also a waterfall and if you want to take your walk to the next level a path that requires 'appropriate footwear', worth it though for the view. Eden Garden is a nice place to visit, even if just the once so you can experience the beauty of nature that lay hidden within Auckland city.
