GG’s Flowers is a Canberra-based social enterprise florist, proudly built by a family of six with big dreams, and an even bigger purpose.
At the heart of the story is Gayana Wijewickrema, less formally known as 'G'. She is a bright, cheeky, and curious 26 year-old young woman with Down syndrome. Gayana loves family outings, frozen yoghurt taste-testing, and giving out world-class cuddles. As she neared the end of her school years, her mum, Geetha, wanted to ensure she had meaningful opportunities to work, grow, and be part of a connected community.
So, Geetha—armed with creativity and determination—trained as a professional florist and founded GG's Flowers. What began as a mother-daughter duo has since blossomed into a vibrant team of more than 40 people, many of whom live with disabilities, all working together to craft beautiful blooms and thoughtful hampers.

Every arrangement is made with love: Geetha brings the artistic flair, and Gayana brings the magic. She often delivers your flowers with a huge smile—and a not-so-secret agenda: she’s mostly excited to meet your dog.
When you support GG’s Flowers, you’re not just buying flowers. You’re backing a business where inclusion, purpose, and joy are part of every delivery.
