Flowers on Cashmere

About

In South Island, Flowers on Cashmere is a florist on Colombo Street. The shop sits within a network of South Island towns that includes Queenstown, Christchurch, Dunedin, Nelson, Blenheim, Wanaka, Te Anau and Kaikoura.

As a florist, the business works with cut flowers and arrangements rather than food or drink. Its reputation rests on a 4.8 out of 5 average drawn from 61 reviews, a score that reflects consistent approval from those who have bought from it. The shop keeps a website at http://www.flowersoncashmere.co.nz/, where its services and arrangements are set out.

Opening hours, prices and delivery terms are handled through that website and the shop itself. First-time visitors can expect a working florist's counter rather than a retail chain, with the Colombo Street frontage as the point of arrival.

South Island's seasons run opposite to the northern hemisphere, so summer falls from December to February and winter from June to August. English is the main language and te reo Māori is also official, so Māori place names appear throughout the country. Fish and chips, meat pies and flat whites are everyday takeaway staples across New Zealand. Because the country is a long, narrow group of islands, almost nowhere on South Island is far from the sea.
