Celebrating 20 years as Lane Cove’s boutique florist
We’re proud to announce that we’re celebrating 20 years in Lane Cove! It’s a big occasion and Elen and I were talking about how we could push the boat out to mark the big day.
So, we had a think… How would you celebrate if you’d been lucky enough to share in so many of life’s moments with the community you’re so thankful to be a part of? How would you say cheers to the community for all of the support over the years? How would you commemorate 20 years as a boutique florist, Lane Cove?
By giving back to that wonderful community of course!
We want to say thanks!
There are so many marvellous local organisations who’ve given so much to this community. And we want to give back to them!
Lane Cove wouldn’t be the thriving and welcoming place it is without the dedication of our not-for-profit and volunteer organisations; like our schools, hospitals, libraries, community services, such as Meals on Wheels and the Early Childhood Health Centre, and nursing homes. We feel honoured to have been chosen by so many of you over the years to brighten these great places with bouquets of gratitude and recognition. We’ve seen how tirelessly they work to support and nurture our neighbourhoods and neighbours.
20 bouquets to celebrate 20 years as your boutique florist, Lane Cove!
We couldn’t think of a better way to say thanks than to surprise 20 of these impressive local organisations with 20 of our bouquets – each one hand delivered by us on 21 September. Each bouquet will be brimming with Australian wildflowers, and may include the banksia which adorns many gardens and nature strips around our area. The flowers will be sourced with the help and donation of Lane Cove Council and ourselves.

We want you to join the party by nominating which local organisations you think are most deserving. Jump on our Facebook page, send us an email or pop into the store to nominate. The organisations who get the highest number of nominations, plus a few extras we’re keen to honour, will be compiled. Elen and I will then hand deliver the bouquets on 21 September.
A little bit of history…
Originally opening in 1995, second only to Bakers Delight in the Central Plaza Arcade, we were named Ellen’s Flowers by Design, after the original owner, for a number of years. Our second owner, Theresa, rebranded our boutique to Pure Flowers before Elen and I bought the business almost four years ago. We jumped ship from our corporate careers to do what we love – brightening peoples’ faces with unique floral creations.
We certainly weren’t the first florist Lane Cove had seen, but we’re delighted to have had the community’s support for 20 years to enable us to become a fixture in the Lane Cove shopping scene.
You’ll see us around on 21 September delivering the bouquets with our trusty Pure Flowers van. It’s done over 100,000kms so far – back and forth to the Sydney Flower Market and on local deliveries – and it’s still going strong! While we’re not sure the van will make it to our 40th anniversary, we’re so thankful to have the support of this great community so that Pure Flowers will be!
Chat to you on the phone, or see you in store soon!at Pure Flowers will be!
