An elegant and solemn floral cross arranged to express reverence and remembrance, presented against a stark white backdrop so the craftsmanship is immediately visible. The cross's surface is composed entirely of densely packed white chrysanthemums, each petaled head forming a smooth, sculpted foundation that reads as soft and consoling. Along the edge a ruffled band of deep purple satin ribbon has been woven and laid to form a refined frame, its subtle lustre catching the light and adding formal grace. On the upright arm the word MUM appears in carefully formed letters made of smaller purple blooms-likely eustoma or tightly clustered spray chrysanthemums-each letter contrasting crisply with the white bed beneath. At the intersection of the arms a rich, rounded central spray provides the focal point: deep violet roses with tightly furled petals, lighter lavender roses and ruffled lisianthus interlace to create tonal movement, while variegated foliage-leaves with pale margins and darker centres-introduces texture and a hint of verdant life. Small green berries are tucked amid the greenery, offering a delicate, tactile counterpoint to the softness of the petals. The combination of pristine white and layered purples-from pale lilac to velvety violet-suggests dignity, peace and heartfelt mourning. I imagine this tribute placed on an easel at a wake held near the High Street or beside a church at Thames Ditton, its scent faintly rosy and powdery, its presence steady and comforting for family and friends.

A beautifully composed, cross-shaped funeral tribute rendered in soft whites and purples, seen against a clean white backdrop. The body of the cross is densely carpeted with small, powdery white chrysanthemum heads-each bloom set tightly to form a pillowy surface that suggests calm and purity. Along the entire perimeter a ruffled purple satin ribbon has been carefully tucked and folded, its sheen catching the light and creating a solemn, elegant frame. Down the vertical arm the personal name MUM is spelled in compact clusters of rich purple flower heads-likely lisianthus or small spray chrysanthemums-each letter raised gently above the white field so the inscription reads clearly from a distance. At the centre, where the arms meet, a lush focal spray blooms with deep violet roses and softer lavender roses mixed with ruffled purple eustoma, their petals offering velvety depth and a quiet, graceful movement. Variegated green foliage with pale margins-suggestive of pittosporum-threads through the central cluster, and tiny green berries give a subtle, tactile contrast. The overall palette-from stark white to dusky mauve and true violet-feels reverent and consoling, evoking both dignity and tenderness. There's a muted, almost powdery scent of chrysanthemums and roses that suggests a cool chapel or a calm corner of a Sunday market stall on Esher High Street. As a local florist I picture this tribute laid beside a photo on a memorial table at a service near Sandown Park, its craftsmanship offering quiet consolation while honouring a beloved life.

    I ordered flowers for a funeral, and they were delivered the next day, just before the service. The people at the florals were very helpful in fulfilling my special requests. My family told me two weeks later how beautiful they still looked. I would use Funeral Flowers again whenever I need to send flowers or a plant.

    It was a sad moment arranging our mum's funeral. Even coming up with ideas for the wreaths and funeral posies was a problem. In the end, we just picked what we saw on this website. Everything turned out well.
