South of the Yarra

Have you ever read the lifestyle sections of the newspapers and been frustrated by the fact that they rarely mention the southern suburbs of Melbourne?

If you are wishing that the newspapers would stop banging on about everything in the City and north of, then this blog is for you!

I am a busy 39 year old, who loves Bayside Melbourne and believes that the southern suburbs have just as much to offer.

This blog will cover all your southern needs, from fresh flowers to the best dog friendly parks. From good coffee to the best bread going around. From great bars to where to buy good fresh ingredients and more...

Fresh Fresh Flowers

Last weekend marked a family members 80th birthday so it was off to my favourite florist, Fresh Fresh Flowers.  Located on the corner of Centre Rd and Thomas St Bentleigh, at the end of a little group of shops, you are sure to find a suitable match for any occasion.


I love buying flowers, for home, for birthdays, for thankyous, and I have tried many, many florists over the years.  Now I don't go anywhere else.  They are open late too (till 7:30pm Mon-Thurs, 9pm Fri/Sat and 7pm Sunday) which is great for those last minute OMG moments!


Fresh Fresh always has an extensive selection of flowers, potted plants and greenery, and so so fresh (as the name suggests!).  I find them to be very reasonably priced too, especially when you consider the exceptional quality.  Last weekend I purchased one bunch of blush pink tulips and one bunch of white Ranunculus which the always friendly staff mixed together and beautifully wrapped for me ($27 total).  I have also used their delivery service and ordered flowers sight unseen and the recipient was overjoyed with the surprise that arrived for them.


So whether it be flowers for home, a special gift, a sad time or a cheer up for someone in hospital Fresh Fresh Flowers is my recommendation.
