Circle C Ranch's Flower Shop, Delivered

The Flower Shop That Comes to Circle C Ranch

Circle C Ranch spreads across about seven square miles of southwest Austin around MoPac and Slaughter Lane, with greenbelts, ball fields and one of the most unusual bike tracks in the country right next door. Our Saturday route already passes through Circle C, so getting fresh flowers here is as easy as choosing a Saturday.

Alegria is a small, family-run flower subscription. Mom puts every bouquet together, and she's the one who brings it to your door. Our flowers go from the farm into our cooler, get a fresh cut within 12 hours of delivery, and travel straight to your home without ever sitting on a retail shelf. When you unwrap the bouquet, it's ready to go in a vase, no prep required.

Getting flowers in Circle C, step by step

Choose a plan with one bouquet a month or two. We deliver on the 1st and 3rd Saturday, and you'll pick your Saturday when you sign up. Most deliveries arrive between 6 and 11 AM, and a text lets you know when our family is on the way.

No need to wait by the door. The bouquet is left in biodegradable packaging with a packet of flower food tucked in.

Delivery is free on every order, and if you're out of town, a heads-up 3 days ahead skips that month for free.

Our plans

Meet the family behind Alegria

Alegria is run by our family. Mom builds each arrangement and does the Saturday drop-offs herself, and now and then we film a little of it. Take a look.

The Veloway and Circle C Ranch Metropolitan Park

Circle C's best-known neighbor is the Veloway, a 3.1-mile paved loop inside Circle C Ranch Metropolitan Park, off La Crosse Avenue. When it was built in the early 1990s, it was the first facility of its kind in the United States: 23 feet wide, one-way and clockwise, and open only to bicycles and inline skates, with a fast lane on the left and a slow lane on the right. Riders come from all over the Austin area to lap it between dawn and dusk.

The rest of the metro park, off West Slaughter Lane, has nearly three miles of park trail, sports fields, playscapes and a disc golf course. The Violet Crown Trail runs through it on both sides of MoPac, and the five-mile Slaughter Creek Trail, built and maintained by volunteers from the Austin Ridge Riders mountain bike club, is shared by hikers, cyclists and horseback riders.

A neighborhood built over the aquifer

Developer Gary Bradley began assembling land for Circle C in 1982, and the first homes went up in 1986. Because the subdivision sits near Barton Springs and over the recharge zone of the Edwards Aquifer, it landed at the center of one of Austin's longest fights over growth, including a 1988 lawsuit aimed at stopping the extension of MoPac (Loop 1) into southwest Austin. By 1990 Circle C was the top-selling subdivision in Central Texas, and on December 18, 1997, the City of Austin annexed it, a case that became a landmark in Texas annexation law.

Austin ISD's Kiker Elementary (opened 1992) and Bowie High School (1988) are among the campuses that serve the neighborhood. Grey Rock Golf Club, with its Jay Morrish-designed course and tennis club, sits off State Highway 45, and for a Saturday coffee, Summer Moon's Circle C shop is in the Parkside Village plaza on West Slaughter Lane.

Circle C Ranch delivery questions

Do I need to trim the stems?

No. Each stem gets a fresh cut within 12 hours of delivery, so the bouquet goes straight into a vase. Keep it away from direct sun and heat, refresh the water every couple of days, and add the flower food in two halves, one on arrival and one a few days later. More in our flower care guide.
