Meet Tessa from Poppy In April

Hi, I'm Tessa, the owner, founder, and visionary behind Poppy In April. With over 18 years of experience in the floral industry, I’ve had the pleasure of working with thousands of incredible customers on every type of occasion imaginable.

My journey has allowed me to cultivate a deep passion for flowers and a commitment to creating beautiful arrangements that bring joy and meaning to every moment. At Poppy In April, I strive to infuse each creation with love, care, and a personal touch that reflects the unique story of every customer.


I

In 2021, I took the knowledge, experience, and trust I gained over those years and transformed it into my own boutique brand and floral studio: Poppy In April. My vision was to provide an exclusive customer experience dedicated to creating lasting memories.

You’ll see this vision reflected in everything we do, from hand-selecting the very best locally grown flowers to the time, effort, and care I invest in crafting each and every order from scratch. Every arrangement is created with the final recipient in mind, ensuring that it is not just a gift, but a heartfelt expression of love and appreciation.


I'm based in Tuakau; I love working with locals in Buckland, PukekoheWaiukuFranklin & Pokeno and partner with excellent floral couriers that deliver anywhere in Auckland.

Why Choose Poppy In April?

Our Style is On Trend:
Say goodbye to limp carnations and uninspired filler! At Poppy In April, I create exquisite floral arrangements that are contemporary, cool, and creatively designed to impress.

We Get the Good Stuff:
I work directly with local growers who ensure we receive the best quality flowers. Our floral hauls are A-grade and feature those hard-to-find gems that elevate any arrangement.

Super Fresh Flowers:
I hand-select all our flowers to guarantee they are as fresh as can be. Because we don’t store them, they remain perky and fragrant for longer, ensuring your arrangements look their best.

Passion for Florals:
This isn’t just a job for me; it’s my passion! I live and breathe roses, hydrangeas, peonies, tulips, and so much more. Every creation that leaves our studio is infused with love and care, making it a true reflection of my dedication to the craft.
