Flora in the Wild is a creative floral studio and flower garden by the sea — nestled in Maketu, Bay of Plenty, where the coast meets the countryside and the seasons set the pace.

Most of what you’ll find here begins in my own garden — grown slowly, gathered with intention, and made by hand into something soft, nostalgic, and a little wild. When the season can’t give me everything, I lean on a few trusted local growers who feel the same way about flowers as I do. And because I work with the rhythm of the seasons, no two bouquets are ever quite the same.

Fresh, when the garden is generous. Gathered and dried to linger a little longer, when it isn’t. Either way, it comes from the same patch of earth, made with the same hands.

Whether you’re looking for fresh seasonal flowers delivered to your door, a dried arrangement that lasts long after the moment has passed, or a gift that feels like it was made especially for someone — you’re in the right place.

I’m so glad you found your way here.
