Our Approach

At Devonport Flowers we use only the best, market fresh, seasonal flowers and foliage, selected by us at Auckland’s flower markets, to create beautiful bouquets, quaint posies, weddings and event florals and contemporary arrangements to deliver Auckland wide. We also have a range of floral inspired gifts, gift vouchers, house plants, bespoke hampers, candles and chocolates to impress the most discerning shopper.

At Devonport Flowers our approach is seasonal and fresh, beautiful flowers created for you by our floral artisans who have a real passion for flowers, and a passion we love to share.

Our Team

Gretchen Mawson - Floral Stylist & Creative Director

Flowers and nature are my passion. I feel lucky to be in a profession that lets me be creative everyday and brings joy and beauty to everyone's lives. Having worked in the floral industry in Auckland City in the Retail, Corporate and Event side of floristry I have worked with some very clever people and created some amazing floral displays. I also enjoy passing on the skills I have learnt to other flower enthusiasts, by running a variety of workshops. To own a florist in my local community is a goal I have always had and our window displays, reflecting the seasons are the highlight of people visiting, not to mention our great gift selection and beautiful flowers!
