Stop and smell the dahlias this summer at QN Flowers  

There’s nothing quite like a stroll through the Queen Victoria Market (QVM) on a sunny day, with a bag of fresh fruit and vegies in one hand, and a colourful bundle of flowers in the other. And at QN Flowers, you’ll find all your summer favourites.

Although the QN Flowers stall has been a part of the market since 2016, Ali and Amir became its proud owners in May of last year. 

With more than a decade of experience in the floral industry, the pair source some of Melbourne’s freshest, seasonal blooms for their stall on String Bean Alley.

At the moment, dahlias and hydrangeas are among QN Flowers’ most popular seasonal blossoms.

“At QVM, 90 per cent of our sales are cut flowers. Other than that, people come and choose the flowers, and our florists can make arrangements for them,” Ali said.

QN Flowers’ in-house florists, including Amir’s wife, are known for creating custom bouquets tailored to any style or occasion. 

 

Whether you’re buying flowers for your home or need a bespoke arrangement, their fresh-cut bunches are always plentiful.

 

The store also offers a selection of indoor plants and terrariums in various sizes, perfect for adding a touch of greenery to any space.

When it comes to celebrating special occasions, QN Flowers is your go-to.

Mother’s Day, graduation, and other key milestones are some of the busiest days for the stall, as customers come to mark these important moments with beautiful blooms.

 

 

With Valentine’s Day just around the corner on February 14, Ali, Amir, and their team of florists are ready to help make this day memorable for you and your loved ones.

“The traders here in the market are very lucky, it’s a very good place and time always goes fast,” Ali said.

“Other flower shops, they sit and have to wait for customers or a phone call. But in the market, so many people come and go. Different people, different nationalities, we love it. It was always our dream to have somewhere like this.” •
