Marguerita Florist has no shop front on Pacific Street in Roslyn. Orders are placed online or by phone, and the florist delivers about 95 per cent of them personally across Dunedin and Otago. Orders placed before 12.30 pm on weekdays go out the same day, and phone orders for the next day are taken until 4 pm. Flowers change with what arrives at the auctions, so the mix shifts through the seasons, and the range runs from a gift-wrapped orchid stem and Cymbidium orchids to ceramic mini pots, Kete and hampers. Items on the site are priced from $14 to $100 as at 2026. The florist will also choose and send a gift on your behalf, and asks for 48 hours' notice for that.
