FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY BASKET
£60.00
The image shows an elegant sympathy flower basket photographed in a clean, white studio setting, the kind of tribute you might see at a chapel or family home in Upper Norwood. The basket is woven in a pale, creamy tone, with a tall, arched handle that curves softly over the flowers, framing the display without overpowering it. Inside, the blooms are arranged in a rounded, dome-like silhouette, giving a sense of fullness and care. At the heart of the design rests a single creamy white rose, its petals tightly swirled and velvety, symbolising peace and remembrance. On either side, two deep purple calla lilies rise with gentle curves, their smooth, funnel-shaped flowers adding a refined, almost sculptural quality to the arrangement. Threaded through the rose and callas are star-shaped clematis-style blooms in soft lavender and pale lilac, each with a hint of yellow at the centre, adding lift and movement, like soft breezes across the treetops of Upper Norwood's quiet streets. Pockets of bright yellow blossoms, reminiscent of alstroemeria or freesia, are tucked throughout, bringing subtle light and hope to the design. To the right, a single magenta gerbera-type flower, with fine, radiating petals, introduces a vivid focal note that suggests cherished memories. The entire composition is cradled in abundant green foliage: broad, glossy dark green leaves provide structure, while smaller, lighter green sprigs soften the edges and spill gently over the basket's rim. A faint shadow beneath the basket gives depth and anchors the scene. The overall feeling is one of calm, dignity, and loving tribute, suitable for funerals, memorial services, or sending condolences across Upper Norwood and the surrounding area.
TREASURED MOMENTS BASKET
£65.00
Against a clean white studio background, a light wicker basket rests, filled with an elegant funeral flower arrangement that speaks in hushed, gentle tones. The basket itself is oval or softly rectangular, woven from pale, natural fibres and topped with a matching handle that rises in a simple, graceful arc over the flowers. Inside, the blooms are arranged in a smooth, dome-like shape, appearing full and carefully balanced. At the heart of the design, creamy white roses open in luxurious spirals, their velvety petals layered outward to create a sense of tenderness and quiet respect. Threaded through these roses are airy, star-shaped clematis blossoms in soft lavender and periwinkle shades; each one holds a yellow-green centre that brings a small, luminous point of interest to the cool colour palette. Around them, smaller white and pale yellow flowers-resembling freesia or lisianthus-add delicate texture and a hint of sweet fragrance. Some flower heads are fully unfurled, while others are held in smooth, elongated buds that suggest gentle hope and continuity. Lush, dark green foliage cradles the pastel blooms, with broad, glossy leaves and finer, lighter green sprigs creating a layered backdrop reminiscent of the tree-lined streets around Upper Norwood. The result is a composition that feels considered and heartfelt, suited to a memorial at a local church or a private farewell at home. It is the sort of design a knowledgeable Upper Norwood florist might create for families seeking something that embodies peace, remembrance, and a soft, enduring light amid grief.
PEACE & PURITY BASKET
£65.00
A serene funeral flower basket rests against a clean white backdrop, its light, natural wooden body shaped into a gentle oblong and supported by four discreet feet that lend a sense of stability. A gracefully arched handle rises above, painted or finished in a pale tone that matches the basket, echoing the quiet, respectful mood of a memorial service. Inside, the arrangement is dense and rounded, forming a domed bouquet that overflows slightly, suggesting abundance and care, much like the thoughtful tributes often sent to chapels and homes around Upper Norwood. Creamy white roses are scattered throughout the top, each one fully open, their velvety petals forming precise spirals that radiate calm and purity. Interwoven with them are deep red carnations, their ruffled petal edges catching the light, adding rich texture and a deep crimson glow that expresses devotion and sorrow in equal measure. Among the stronger colours are softer accents of pink and bi-coloured carnations, some petals touched with fine red streaks or edged delicately in rose, gently easing the contrast and bringing a note of tenderness. Small white flowers, resembling freesias, rise on slender stems between the larger blooms, their bell-shaped blossoms and unopened buds hinting at memories and quiet reflection. A foundation of lush dark green foliage cradles the flowers, broad, glossy leaves providing structure, while feathery, fern-like sprigs extend outward, softening the lines and giving the piece a natural, garden-inspired character. The overall palette of cream, scarlet, blush, and deep green stands out sharply against the white background, creating an arrangement that feels both dignified and comforting, suitable for sending condolences or honouring a loved one in the Upper Norwood community.
REMEMBRANCE BASKET
£60.00
Captured against a clean white backdrop, this abundant round bouquet looks like a finely tuned symphony of colour and texture, the kind often requested from local florists in Upper Norwood for special occasions. The arrangement is domed and densely packed, yet it retains a natural softness, as if the blooms have gently settled together. At the heart of the design sit garden roses in shades of soft pink, creamy peach, and sunny yellow, their petals layered in velvety spirals. Some are fully open, displaying their intricate, ruffled centres, while others rest in smaller, more modest stages of bloom, suggesting freshness and longevity. Nestled between these roses are delicate clematis flowers, star-shaped and slender-petalled, in hues of white and pale lavender, their bright yellow centres lending a light-filled focal point. Rising just above the main body of the bouquet, blue eryngium, known as sea holly, adds a bold textural contrast with its spiky, metallic blue-grey heads, bringing an almost architectural structure that feels modern and just a little wild, like the unexpected vistas from nearby Beulah Hill. Deep purple lisianthus blooms add depth and a richer cool tone, some still curled tightly as buds, others gently unfurling with soft, pleated petals. Threaded throughout are shining red hypericum berries, clustered like tiny beads, their smooth, rounded forms providing playful, tactile contrast among the petals. The whole arrangement is framed by a lush collar of foliage: glossy broad leaves at the base, lighter feathery greens weaving upward, and subtle glimpses of darker, burgundy-tinted leaves that create a layered, three-dimensional feel. Even, diffused lighting highlights the natural freshness of every stem, suggesting a bouquet ready to be delivered across Upper Norwood to mark joyful celebrations, tender sympathies, or simple acts of appreciation.
ETERNAL MEMORY POSY
£100.00
COMPASSION POSY
COMPASSION POSY
£90.00
Presented against a pure white, uncluttered backdrop, this lavish bouquet feels like a love letter in flowers, the kind a local florist in Upper Norwood might hand over for a milestone celebration. A ring of large white lilies creates the visual framework, each bloom opening in a trumpet-like form with gently reflexed petals and soft green centres, while unopened buds stand tall and smooth, full of promise. Around these lilies, layers of blush pink roses and creamy ivory roses are tucked in with care, their velvety petals spiralling inward in tight clusters and half-opened cups that speak of warmth, affection, and grace. Punctuating the softer pastel scheme are several bold fuchsia and deep magenta Oriental lilies, reminiscent of Stargazer lilies, their petals scattered with darker spots and centred with bright yellow anthers that add drama and intensity. A delicate haze of white baby's breath winds through the design, with countless small blossoms catching the light and giving the bouquet an airy, cloud-like softness. Here and there, slender green leaves and stems bring in a cool freshness, suggesting a garden just beyond the door, perhaps along Church Road or near Norwood Park. The lighting is bright and consistent, enhancing every texture from the smooth lily petals to the feathery gypsophila, and making the colours appear vivid yet refined. The effect is luxurious but not overwhelming, an arrangement that naturally suits weddings, special birthdays, or heartfelt apologies, and one that feels ready to be delivered across Upper Norwood's homes, studios, and independent shops.
