Battle For Australia Day 2026

This morning’s wreath is in honour of Bombardier Sydney Rex Beach and his service during the Second World War.

It is constructed with happy wanderer vines, westringia and jade plant branches, totaling 22 pieces, in recognition of the 22 months he spent serving overseas in New Guinea, Bougainville and Japan. These varieties of foliage have been chosen specifically because they are resilient and tough, and recognize the harsh and demanding conditions often faced soldiers in New Guinea and Bougainville.

Rex received 4 medals for his service: the 1939-1945 Star, the Pacific Star, the War Medal 1939-1945, and the Australian Service Medal 1939-1945. The yellow copper and silver of these medals is shown in this wreath with yarns.

4 clusters of gumnut blossoms recognize Rex’s 4 years of continuous service, with a total number of 19 gumnuts show his age when he enlisted.

At the base of this wreath there are 2 larger gumnuts, in honour of the 2nd Australian Field Regiment with which he served, and 2 rosemary branches from the gardens of the Maldon RSL, which he served as president in 1962 and 1963.

Vietnam Veterans' Day 2026

Today's wreath contains a total of 60 separate pieces of foliage, flowers, twine and ribbons, combining together to commemorate Vietnam Veterans’ Day on this, the 60th anniversary of the Battle of Long Tan.

It’s floral colours show the green and yellow of the 6th Battalion Royal Australian Regiment colour patch, and the green and white of the Republic of Vietnam Campaign Medal.

The ribbons featured show the colours of the Australian Active Service 1945 – 1975 medal, and the silver of the campaign clasps that are issued with these medals.

This wreath also features lotus flower pods. The lotus is often thought of as the national flower of Vietnam, and is grown extensively throughout the country. But today they have another meaning. The choice to include them for this wreath was inspired by the speech heard at today's commemorative service in Maldon, which spoke about the lasting emotional and psychological effects and struggles experienced by many veterans and their loved ones. Lotus flowers are often used as a symbol of mental health, representing resilience, personal growth and healing. they grow from murky, dark waters, reaching upwards to the brightness, they show that strength and resilience can come from dark or difficult experiences, and serve as a metaphor for the journey of recovery.

Rest easy, Friend.

This wreath has been provided by the Maldon RSL, in honour of their good friend and fellow veteran.

The main wreath structure is made from 46 rosemary branches; one from each of the members of the Maldon RSL and collected from the gardens at the hall.
These branches have all been woven together, adding strength and support to each other to form a tight-knit group, in much the same way the RSL's members do for each other, and Mr P. did for them.

Wattle features in this wreath and is the floral emblem of Australia, with the Australian Defence Force often incorporating it into their commemorative designs.

The other flowers featured are chrysanthemums and yellow roses, both of these are traditionally used to represent friendship, support and gratitude; all things that the members of the RSL have shared together over the years.

This wreath also proudly wears ribbons in light blue, red, dark blue and gold; the colours of the Australian Defence Force ensign.

"Stand Down"

This wreath was in honour of a lovely man, his friendship, and his brave military service.

This wreath for Mr E. includes sprigs of rosemary; a traditional symbol of remembrance and often associated with military memorial services,
yellow flowers; traditionally used as a symbol of friendship and comradery
and wattle; Australia’s floral emblem, and often used symbolically by the Australian Defence Force, as on the National Medal.

Along with these floral details, this wreath proudly wears ribbons that have been selected to match the colours in the ribbons of each of the four medals Mr E. received for his years of dedicated service.

It is a wreath that is humble, down to earth, and traditional, and reflects Mr E's personality.

Korean Veterans Day.

Today’s wreath is in honour of Pte Ronald Rufus Bennett and his service. The base is made up of eucalyptus, conifer and rosemary; 3 varieties of foliage in recognition of the 3rd Battalion RAR with which Ronald served, and is comprised of 12 branches, for each month he bravely did so.

This wreath is woven with twines in yellow, blue and white, reflecting the ribands of the medals he was issued with, being the Korean Medal and the United Nations Service Medal Korea.

This wreath proudly wears a ring of wattle, as does the Royal Australian Infantry Corps insignia. In total there are 22 sprigs of wattle, as Pte Bennett was 22 years old when he started his service.

It's been a good day in Daylesford today for my first market back in a whole year! The 5am start to the workday will take a bit to get used to again, but it turned out to be a lovely day with apprentice number 2.
A big wonderful thank you to everyone in our village who helps in some way to bring it all together with this little family business, including those who babysit so I can get a lot more work done without my little helpers, husband who takes over baby duty as soon as he's home from work so I can do the evening shift of flower prep and helps me load or unload the car, friends and family who share our social media posts, and all the lovely customers who stop by and support the little guys rather than the big stores, its all so, so much appreciated and I love that I get to do this as a job sometimes.

Happy Mothers day to all those celebrating today, and love to those who find today tough.

Time for an early bed time for this Mumma! Xx
