Queen Vic Dahlias

Queen Vic Dahlias Queen Vic Dahlias - 8 new Australian dahlia cultivars to grow in your garden. Available now for the first time in 2026

Fresh cut flowers are offered seasonally from early Spring to mid Autumn with both bouquets and straight bunches made using ingredients fresh from the field to order. Bouquets need to be ordered in advance via our website - by 5pm before the day required and are available for pickup only from the farm gate stall. Please note our farm is a private residence and is not open to the public for beyond

our farm gate stall. We kindly ask that you do not visit the farm without a pre-arranged appointment for farm gate pickup / outside of our weekend farm stall hours. As you can imagine, it can be startling to find people wandering around our backyard and home uninvited.

Today I went out to the field and dug up the QV Petal Power that didn't make it out in time. A genuinely unpleasant and stinky job. Unfortunately 123 of my tuber clumps didn't make it 😱

I actually hadn't added up the losses until now, so that was a bit of a shock!

Anyway, how's your week kicking off?

Do you love statistics? I myself can spend hours crunching the numbers to understand how things work - I find it completely fascinating, so I totally crunched numbers today 🧐

Some fun facts from the launch of last night's tuber sale

QV Petal Power Sold out in the first minute (-50 stock count due to losing half a row to flooding!), closely followed by Amore (100+ stock count) which sold out in 3 minutes.

Your favourite order duo combinations were

QV Heartbreaker + QV Dirty Martini
QV Heartbreaker + QV Victoria
QV Heartbreaker + QV Life on Mars
QV Amore + QV Afterglow

and guess what? The top 3 are still available πŸ™Œ

And you know what else? Your favourite trio combo of QV Heartbreaker + QV Victoria + QV Life on Mars is also still up for grabs ( ps this is the best wedding combo - such a winner!)

I'm still feeling the glow today, and I am truly so excited to see Queen Vic growing in your gardens this dahlia season πŸŽ‰

A huge thank you to all who have already purchased in tonight's dahlia tuber sale. I am beyond humbled by your love for my new Queen Vic cultivars and support of my small business.

My sale will continue until all cultivars are sold out πŸ™Œ so do jump on the website and pick up your favourites. I will start shipping orders in early September.

Please know I do withhold a small percentage of stock to ensure I can meet my orders, so expect a final small sale in late November!

Until then, thank you for making Queen Vic a success. I honestly could not do this without you.

Babes!!! My rebrand is complete πŸ™Œ I've got a new username, a new website, new branding - Introducing Queen Vic Dahlias!

To celebrate here are some of my favourite combos of my new Queen Vic Dahlias releases, with a little sneaky peek at a combo you'll be able to make next season with a 2027 intro β™₯

5 years ago I started Woodend Flower Farm. Honestly I had NFI what I was doing. I could grow a few plants for sure, but farming? Floristry? I was completely in over my head. Totally drowning. I remember spending 10K on setting up my field that first year and I was losing my mind wondering how I was going to earn that much back from flowers ( I think my turnover was 15K in year one which felt like a huge win).

Over the years I've gotten bigger, then smaller, and now bigger and definitely more niche. I no longer make bouquets, and I've gotten ride of pretty much every other flower I've grown over the past 5 years besides dahlias. I grow a few extra things just for the photos, but honestly I love just being a dahlia breeder and farmer. It kind of feels like I found my place, finally.

And this year, this is my first year where I get to pay myself a living wage. And it feels f***ing fantastic.

Love you babes ###

A quick note for mailing list subscribers - as my mailing list has grown in size it no longer emails you all instantaneously at once (I know, how rude!) but sends my email out in smaller bite size batches, which then gets added to a queue by your email provider along with all the other businesses out there sending you sales pitches :)

What this means - you will receive the sale info hopefully in the next 12 - 24 hours which still allows you plenty of time to prepare for the sale.

Please don't panic if you haven't received the email yet, and if you haven't got it by tomorrow - check your spam! I am now sending from my new queen vic email address so it's possible your filters have re-flagged them.

I'd love to be able to respond to you all individually on this, but I still have one last cultivar to count and am only one wonder woman who loves a little work / life balance.

Queen Vic dahlias 2026 Collection πŸ™Œ

I'm so proud of what I have achieved since I began breeding dahlias, and I'm particularly excited about each and every one of my new Queen Vic dahlia cultivars.

They all have unique features and filled a gap in my dahlia field that I didn't know I had until I grew them.

QV Amore - So similar to cafe au lait; but she has a smaller more stable and usable bloom. She is romance in a flower.

QV Heartbreaker - The perfect salmon bloom, the perfect gold tipped petals with a golden shimmer, exceptionally strong stems; I can never walk past him without picking his flowers.

QV Afterglow - She just really is such a mood booster with her glowy good looks, she's a light-up-the-room girl. Another one I can't walk past without picking!

QV Life on Mars - Just like I am always hunting for the perfect red lipstick (pretty sure it's Hermes btw) I have hunted high and low for the perfect red dahlia. Life on Mars has gorgeous dark stems, shimmery purple backed red petals and is a neutral red - so he works in both cool and warm toned arrangements.

QV Vanilla - White dahlias truly are the backbone of any dahlia collection. Vanilla is a lovely clean white with a nice tight centre, he makes a great round shape and his back petals are longer and remind me of butterfly wings.

QV Petal Power - The one everybody falls for because she is just so unique with her petaloids and split petal tips. She is a super fluffy bunny with attitude and I love her for it.

QV Dirty Martini - Big, bold, beautiful! Dirty Martini is the largest dahlia I grow - as big as your head! He's a sturdy guy with strong stems and is always a conversation starter.

QV Victoria - I like her so much I named her after myself - twice! I love her long thin black stems, her peony style foliage, her open habit and she just blooms her head off. Everyone needs a little QVV in their lives ❀

Today was a very productive day, and I can almost hear the cocktails that I'm going to drink at the finish line chanting my name ;)

I completed recounts on two more cultivars (QV Life on Mars and QV Vanilla) which means I only have two more to go, plus a recount on a 3rd because I missed a box. Which does mean I will announce sale details to my email subscribers in the next few days.

So far everything is looking great, but I do plan to be conservative for this sale in case of any last minute stock losses after the flooding I experienced - some cultivars will be more limited in supply than I would like but quality control is my bestie.

Hands up if you're ants in your pants excited????

Hey Queens!

It's that time of year where you all start emailing me because you are so keen to order in my next tuber sale and / or receive the order you have already placed. I am ALSO SO KEEN to put on my next tuber sale and start shipping your orders; but the reality is that with the flooding I experienced this year in my dahlia field - QUALITY CONTROL IS SUPER IMPORTANT and I have thousands of tubers to check 🧐

I promise I am working as hard and fast as I can to bring you the best Queen Vic dahlias money can buy β™₯️

I am still trying to decide a date for my next sale. Over the next few weeks I will not be replying to "when is your sale going to be?" emails or requests for information that is clearly published on my website. I am only one Queen working her a*** off while you are many. I say this with love for my customers - Please have mercy on me and trust that I've got your best interests in mind πŸ™

And some days are more option two πŸ‘Ž

Stocktake is still underway but tomorrow I'm headed down to Flinders for some RnR with my gal pals and you can bet I am going to the hot springs! Maybe even twice!

I hope you have fun weekend plans, and maybe even a sneaky long weekend plan like me πŸ’‹
