Located in a former industrial precinct from the 1920s, The Grounds of Alexandria is home to a vibrant and eclectic community of like-minded creatives. Nestled within the leafy laneways and canopies since 2012, The Grounds Florals By Silva is a hive of activity and energy that draws devotees from all over Australia. It’s not just regarded as the best florist in Alexandria—it’s a destination for lovers of flora, texture, design, and colour.
Silva and her daughter Mariam run the store alongside a small, close-knit team, creating a warm, family-like environment where passion for flowers and creativity thrives. With over 25 years in the floral industry, Silva has cultivated a philosophy centered on farm-fresh, locally sourced blooms. Each week, she and her team visit Sydney farms in Kellyville, Oakdale, and Glenorie, as well as Sydney Markets, to find floral treasures that delight and captivate their guests.
The team’s clients are genuine floral enthusiasts, curious about the origins, care, and selection of every stem. Each piece of material is carefully chosen to be aesthetic, textural, and full of natural beauty.
Their days begin early, starting at 4:00 am at the flower markets, followed by quiet, pre-dawn preparation at The Grounds. As caretakers of one of Australia’s most celebrated floral displays, the team conditions and assembles hundreds of flowers daily, ensuring its flawless every time. Throughout the day, they share The Grounds’ unique experiences with loyal guests, combining creativity with impeccable service.
Silva, Mariam, and their small, dedicated team are renowned for both exquisite floral gifting and standout event installations. They specialise in weddings and events within The Grounds, but it’s their focus on creating a truly immersive floral experience that sets them apart as one of Sydney’s top florists. Step into The Grounds Florals By Silva and discover must-have giftware, stunning blooms, custom well-being products, and a uniquely enchanting environment.
