Grattans Flowers

Grattans Flowers is a notch above other florists in the Carlton area. Where many businesses are simply reselling blooms and producing a few standard arrangements with the obligatory fuchsia tissue paper, Grattans Flowers are genuinely interested in contemporary floral design.
Their ever-​changing window displays are a good indicator of the aesthetic within — vintage pastels and kitsch astro turf are often featured. Inside there is a large selection of arrangements, as well as a relatively smaller number of flowers to have your own made up. They also sell beautifully packaged pot plants for longer-​lasting gifts.
I usually select individual flowers to have a custom bouquet made, and the arrangements are always perfect. The paper, ribbon and string used are tasteful and high quality. The florists put a small individual bloom on the front of each bouquet which is a lovely touch, although it makes you hesitant to actually unwrap the flowers and put them in a vase!
