WELCOME TO AUSTRALIAN CAPITAL TERRITORY
The Australian Capital Territory (ACT) was established in 1911 to create a capital for the newly federated country of Australia. Some 2330 square kilometres (900 square miles) was set aside, 53 per cent of which today remains nature park or reserve. Canberra, the urban centre of the ACT, is a modern city of 320,000 people with stylish restaurants, bars, boutique shopping and a calendar of events and festivals. Surrounding rural areas and stretches of natural bushland are home to charming townships such as Tharwa and Hall, award-winning wineries, and nature parks. Just 45 minutes drive from the city is Tidbinbilla Nature Reserve offers walking trails, Australian animals in their natural habitat, delightful wildflowers during spring and rich Indigenous and pioneer heritage. Namadgi National Park, also 45 minutes' drive from the city at the northern end of the Australian Alps, has numerous marked trails, enjoy spectacular wildflowers in spring. The Indigenous rock art and Aboriginal shelters are easily accessible. Camping is possible in with fishing and horse riding permitted in designated areas

WHAT WILL I PAY FOR AUSTRALIAN CAPTIAL TERRITORY FLOWERS?
Prices start at AUD$49. The price quoted is the total price that you pay for your Australian Capital Territory flowers ~ no delivery or processing extras like some Australian Capital Territory florists. Here at Flying Flowers we pride ourselves on charging no extras.

HOW IS AUSTRALIAN CAPTIAL TERRITORY DELIVERY MADE?
Your Australian Capital Territory flowers are delivered by the Australian Air Express courier service. Some outlying areas, which a Australian Capital Territory florist cannot always reach, may be delivered through their affiliate deliverer Australia Post.

WHEN SHOULD I ORDER?
We recommend that whenever possible you place your online flower delivery order for Australian Capital Territory flowers at least one week before the required date. Our purpose-written computer programme (affectionately known in the Flying Flowers office as 'MODS' which is something that a Australian Capital Territory florist won't have) then schedules the correct despatch day for us according to the courier schedule. Depending on the day that you order and the location of your delivery we can need anything between 1 to 7 days notice.

WHY DO YOU NEED 1 - 7 DAYS NOTICE?
Unlike a Australian Capital Territory florist who has flowers sitting in their coolroom awaiting your order here at Flying Flowers we wait for your order before picking the flowers fresh from the nursery ~ that way we expect that your Western Australia flowers will give at least two weeks pleasure in the vase once received - over 90% of customers surveyed in 2005 advised us this was indeed the case!.

CAN YOU DELIVER OVERNIGHT LIKE A AUSTRALIAN CAPTIAL TERRITORY FLORIST?
Most Australian Capital Territory flowers are delivered overnight, but your best bet is to email or FreeCall 1800 677 799 us so we can let you know when our next scheduled delivery of Australian Capital Territory flowers is.

WHAT ABOUT PEAK TIMES such as Christmas, Mothers Day and Easter?
Unlike a Australian Capital Territory florist during these peak gift-giving times Flying Flowers processes literally hundreds of thousands of orders for delivery all over Australia. Therefore we ask that your order for Australian Capital Territory flowers be with us at least two weeks before the special day. All bouquets will arrive during the week leading up to the special day ~ remembering that your selected blooms are picked to order and expected to last at least two weeks.
