Happiness…
Slowater Flowers is situated in the charming rural valley of Makarau. Here we grow a bounty of beautiful blooms, with the focus on being kind to the earth and the pollinators that visit the colourful flower fields. Our flowers are seasonal, fresh and grown with so much passion. So whether you are looking for a bunch, a bouquet or a bucket of flowers, there will be blooms to make your heart sing.
Fresh Flowers
Slowater Flowers is a seasonal flower farm which means that our season starts around September with our spring blooms and ends around the time of the first frost in late autumn. So for 9 glorious months of the year we have a wonderful variety of flowers available for collection directly from the farm or for delivery. Whether you are interested in just a bunch of flowers for your home, a bouquet for a special person or buckets of flowers for a wedding or event, we can supply that.
Dahlia tubers
All the tubers are from dahlias that we have grown and cared for in our flower fields. They are all cut-flower varieties that we have been picking from for the past year and they have been amazing. To help you buy with confidence, please note that we are conscientious about sterilising all tools that come into contact with the dahlias to eliminate the transfer of disease. We do this painstakingly during the picking season, during the lifting of the tubers and while dividing the tubers. All tubers are divided so that there is a viable eye which will grow your new plant.
Please note that due to the volume of tubers to be divided, orders will only be sent out in the last two weeks of July.

Weddings and events
If you are a florist or event designer we are happy to supply you with beautiful flowers to suit your design. Feel free to sign up for our contact sheet to be included in our weekly availability list.
Florist mixed buckets
We love supplying florists with buckets filled with a grower's choice of blooms. This is the most economic way to get a variety of farm-fresh blooms into your shop. Although the grower decides which flowers go into the bucket, the florist's specific preferences and colour choice would be taken into account. Feel free to sign up to our contact sheet to register your interest in our flower buckets.
