In this article, we’re going to be looking at how you can send Interflora flowers anywhere in Australia, so keep reading if you would like to find out more.
What Is Interflora Australia?
Interflora Australia is a website that amalgamates a range of other websites in order to send flowers in Australia. It’s important to understand that this company does not own florists, nor do they put together the flowers or deliver them. The easiest way to think about this is to think of it as a booking site. You can order flowers through this site, and the orders are then sent by Interflora Australia to one of their approved florists. The florist will then put together your order and send it, with the florist then paying a certain percentage of the order value to Interflora.
You can send flowers pretty much anywhere when you use Interflora. This saves you the hassle of finding a florist yourself, and instead allows someone else to do it for you. Some of the locations that you can send to include Canberra, Brisbane, Perth, Sydney, Melbourne and most other places.
Interflora was actually created in the UK, and has been around for almost 100 years now. It’s original name was ‘Florista Telegraph Delivery Association’ and was loved by florists as it was a way for them to get more orders for their shops.
In 2019, Interflora UK was purchased by Teleflora, which is the world’s leading floral wire service. The purchase was completed for almost 60 million USD.
Interflora have been delivering flowers in Australia for over 60 years now, and have around 750 florists in their network. As a whole, Interflora covers around 150 countries, with roughly 50,000 florists in their network.

More Information About Fig And Bloom
Fig & Bloom do not operate as part of the Interflora Australia network. Our company designs and sources all of our flower bouquets ourselves. We do not operate through any flower network, instead choosing to send all of our flower bouquets on our own. By doing this, we can ensure that we are fully responsible for everything that we do, from the very start to the end of the process. The reason that we do this is that we can ensure you are 100% happy with your order, and all of your queries will come straight to us. It’s nice to be able to deal with your florist directly, and we give you that option.
Bloom & Wild are a UK flower gifting service, and if you are looking for a comparison for our service, this would be it. This company invented the concept of letterbox flowers. This is where flowers that are in bud are packed and sent to the customers in a gift box through the mail. We are essentially Bloom & Wild in Australia as we too, offer you this service.
The shape of the boxes for letterbox flowers is essential as they fit through most letterboxes. This means nobody has to be home for delivery, and ensures that you still get the flowers that you have ordered. It also makes the entire process that little bit easier for those who have a hectic lifestyle and can’t guarantee they will be at home at any given time.
When you place your order, that’s when we start sourcing your flowers. You can then guarantee that you get flowers that are fresh, and there is a lot of waste eliminated from the process.
Flower gifting has become popular in Australia recently, and is only showing signs of picking up further, not slowing down. As such, we here at Fig and Bloom are also known for our letterbox flower service. We can either put our bespoke boxes through your letterbox or leave them outside the door, completely protected in the box.
Does Fig And Bloom Work The Same As Interflora?
The short answer to this question is no. As we are not part of the Interflora network, or any flower network, we are responsible for all orders received. We do not outsource any orders to another provider, instead handling them ourselves to ensure the best quality for our customers.
When you start the process with us, we handle every single detail of your order. We design all of our own bouquets so that they are perfect for our customers, before sourcing the flowers that we need. We believe that it’s important to have quality control over this, which is why we prefer to operate on our own. From there, we will prepare the bouquet that you have chosen and get it ready to be delivered.
Our service is a little different from most of the others in Australia, and that is why we believe it is so popular. Flower giving should be a pleasant experience for everyone involved, and through our personal approach to this, we believe that it is. Unlike anything else that you will find in Australia, at Fig and Bloom we strive to provide whatever you need, designing beautiful bouquets for every single occasion.
We can deliver your flowers almost anywhere in Australia, but make sure that you check our website to ensure you are covered before you get started with the process. Our bespoke boxes are beautiful, with all of our customers loving them, while protecting the flowers inside from any harm.
We hope that you have found this article helpful, and now understand what you need to know about how to send flowers with Interflora Australia. The process is not a complicated one, so it’s not going to be too much of a nightmare when the time comes for you to order. Or, you can order from an independent flower shop that is not in the Interflora Australia network. The choice is yours!
