Dried Flowers
Our dried flowers can last many years in the right environment. Dried flowers hate moisture and direct sunlight. To prolong the lifespan of your dried blooms, it’s best to store them somewhere with low humidity, and avoid anywhere too drafty.
With Flowers Across Australia, you can send dried flowers to all postcodes in these states:
- NSW, VIC, QLD, SA, ACT in Australia.
Please note: In respect of Biosecurity laws, we currently do not deliver to addresses in WA, Tas or NT.
For more information on delivery, see the Delivery FAQ section below.
We hope you love them. The golden rule with dried flowers is NO WATER! Sounds obvious, but we’ve gotta say it. When picking a spot to display your dried flowers, ensure it’s not somewhere humid, and it’s out of direct sunlight or anywhere drafty.
For Dried Flower Bouquets, carefully remove the bouquet from the box, and if you wish to unwrap the bouquet to place in a vase, or hang from a picture hook, just be gentle - dried flowers are delicate.
If you’ve received a DIY Kit, you’re in for a treat! Select a vase or vessel of your choice, and get creative! If you need some inspiration, you can use the images on the product page as a reference. The great thing about our DIY Kits is that you can apply your own style, and if you ever get bored, you can rearrange your flowers for a fresh new style.
For more tips on dried flower care, see our Flower Care Guide.
To increase longevity and reduce risk of damage or fading, make sure you keep your dry flowers away from water, humidity, direct sunlight, wind and drafts.

Adding a Dried Flower arrangement to a room can really make a statement, but placement is key. First, you want to select a place that will ensure your flowers don’t get damaged, so pick a spot out of direct sunlight, and with low humidity.
Be sure to pair your arrangement with a vase or vessel that is appropriately sized and has a colour and texture that compliments the natural beauty of your dried blooms. Organic shapes and natural textures look great with dried flowers. As for colours, stick to clear glass, muted earthy tones, metallics or pastels.
Dried Flowers make fashionable table display, whether it’s your dining table, a side table, or your desk. Ensure that the colours surrounding the arrangement work with the neutral and muted tones of your dried blooms. Our dried arrangements often look great against a crisp white wall, or paired with other pastels and neutrals.
We don’t offer custom dried arrangements at this time, but stay tuned - it’s something we’re working on for the future.
When choosing a dried flower supplier, look for a company with quality product, on-trend artistry, and lots of experience. At Flowers Across Australia, we tick all of those boxes!
