What’s in Season?

A Seasonal Guide to Wedding Flowers in the Hills District

If you’ve ever shown your florist a Pinterest bouquet only to hear, “That flower’s out of season,” you’re not alone — and you’re not doing anything wrong.

But here’s the thing: locally grown flowers are always the most beautiful, the most affordable, and the most resilient. When you work with the seasons, everything just lasts longer, looks softer, and feels more like it belongs.

At Bohemian Buds, we source the bulk of our flowers from growers right here in the Hills District — Glenorie, Galston, Kenthurst, and beyond — and that means what’s available is constantly shifting. And that’s part of the magic.

So whether you’re planning a spring wedding, a mid-winter elopement or just want to know what will be blooming for your date, here’s a general guide to what’s in season in NSW.

SUMMER

Summer florals are bold, joyful, and full of life. With longer days and warmer temperatures, we lean into flowers that can handle the heat — think dahlias, sunflowers, zinnias and lisianthus. It’s a season that suits vibrant colours, playful textures and abundant, movement-filled arrangements. Perfect for garden weddings, open-air ceremonies, and relaxed, outdoor receptions.

Planning Tip.
