FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY BASKET
£60.00
A softly lit studio image captures a serene funeral flower basket resting on a white surface, with a clean, uncluttered white background that draws full attention to the flowers. The basket itself is light in colour, perhaps off-white or cream, with a neatly woven texture and a curved handle that arches gracefully over the centre, echoing the gentle lines of the blooms. Dominating the heart of the arrangement is a large, creamy white rose, its tightly layered petals forming a calm, comforting focal point often chosen by families in Hither Green to symbolise innocence, remembrance, and eternal love. Around it, two deep purple calla lilies rise with poised elegance, their sculpted, trumpet-like spathes providing contrast and a sense of quiet formality well suited to a chapel or crematorium service near Lewisham. Wisps of pale lavender clematis-like flowers, each with slender, starry petals, weave in between the larger blooms, creating movement and a light, airy feeling amid the solemnity. Sprays of cheerful yellow, likely alstroemeria or freesia-style blossoms, appear like little notes of sunlight, suggesting hope and gratitude even in times of loss. A single magenta gerbera daisy, vivid and open-faced, peeks from one side, its saturated colour gently recalling bright moments and shared memories. Lush greenery, including shiny, rounded leaves and delicate, lighter green sprigs, cradles the flowers, spilling outward in a rounded, full silhouette. A soft shadow under the basket adds depth without disturbing the calm atmosphere. This arrangement would feel at home in a Hither Green living room during a wake, or delivered as a thoughtful condolence gift to a family home near Mountsfield Park, offering comfort, beauty, and a dignified expression of sympathy.
TREASURED MOMENTS BASKET
£65.00
The image presents a refined funeral flower basket placed against a clean white backdrop, allowing every petal and leaf to stand out with gentle clarity. The basket itself is woven from pale wicker in a light beige or off-white tone, with a matching handle that curves high above the flowers like a protective arch. Inside, the design is round and full, dominated by large, fully open creamy white roses whose soft, layered petals glow with a subtle ivory warmth, evoking serenity and grace. Nestled among them are the distinctive, star-shaped blooms of clematis in a tender lavender and pale periwinkle shade, each centred with a bright yellow-green eye that draws the gaze inward. These stars add a poetic, almost garden-like touch, reminiscent of climbing flowers along the calm back gardens of Hither Green and streets leading down toward Lewisham. Smaller, fragrant white and pale yellow freesia-type flowers weave through the arrangement, mixing open blooms with tight buds to bring movement and a sense of gentle progression, like breaths of fresh air. Ruffled white filler flowers, possibly lisianthus, contribute extra softness and volume, while a rich base of dark green foliage anchors the whole display. The leaves are glossy and abundant, some broad and sheltering, others slender and arching, making the pastel tones appear even more luminous. The overall mood is tranquil, elegant, and deeply comforting, ideal for honouring a loved one at a funeral or crematorium service, or for sending condolences to families in Hither Green, Lee, or Blackheath who need a quiet, beautiful expression of support and remembrance.
PEACE & PURITY BASKET
£65.00
A thoughtfully composed funeral flower basket is displayed in clear, even light, its colours and shapes designed to offer quiet solace rather than drama. The arrangement sits in a low, oblong basket made from pale, natural wood, with narrow slats, a soft-footed base, and a smooth, arched handle rising gracefully above the flowers. Inside, the blooms are arranged in a generous, rounded mound, full yet orderly, as though carefully cradling each stem. Creamy white roses, fully opened so that every petal can be seen, form the heart of the display, lending a sense of purity and farewell. Around them, deep red carnations unfold in layered ruffles, their velvety petals creating depth and texture that suggests strong, enduring emotion. Some of the carnations carry lighter tones, with white or pale pink petals touched with fine red edges, softening the transition between the whites and scarlets. Threaded through the larger flowers are delicate, small white blossoms, similar to freesias, with slim stems and open, bell-like florets that lighten the entire arrangement. A rich bed of dark green foliage supports the flowers: broad, glossy leaves add weight and structure, while airy, feathery greens, perhaps asparagus fern, reach outward like gentle breaths of movement. Everything is shown against a clean white background, so the colours and forms are easy to imagine without distraction. Designed in the spirit of a local Hither Green florist who understands the needs of families across Lee, Blackheath, and the surrounding area, this basket feels especially suited to funeral services, chapel displays, or home condolence deliveries where a dignified, comforting presence is needed.
REMEMBRANCE BASKET
£60.00
A rounded, luxuriant bouquet sits in crisp focus against a white background, every bloom and leaf clearly defined, as if just finished on the worktable of a Hither Green florist. The arrangement forms a generous dome, densely packed with fresh flowers that tumble into one another in a harmonious blend of soft pastels and richer accents. Dominating the composition are garden roses in shades of light pink, warm yellow, and creamy peach, their petals swirling in intricate layers; some are fully open and romantic, while others remain in half-open buds that promise to unfurl later in the day. Threaded through these classic roses are star-shaped clematis flowers in pale lavender and white, each with a bright yellow center that glows softly, bringing a light, airy feeling reminiscent of cottage-style planting along the streets leading to Mountsfield Park. Blue eryngium, or sea holly, punctuates the bouquet with spiky, steel-blue heads, creating a bold textural counterpoint that makes the pastel tones appear even softer. Deep purple lisianthus blooms are tucked between the larger flowers, some still in rippling, closed buds, others just starting to open, adding depth and a velvety richness. Clusters of small, vivid red hypericum berries glisten like tiny lanterns, their smooth surfaces providing playful contrast among the petals. Around and beneath it all, a medley of lush greenery spreads outward: broad, shiny leaves, delicate feathery fronds, and touches of darker, burgundy-tinged foliage that ground the design. The balanced lighting and shadowing accentuate the bouquet's volume and curvature, conveying a sense of freshness and careful craftsmanship. This arrangement feels ideal for marking a special birthday, welcoming a new baby in the Hither Green area, or sending a warm, uplifting message to someone nearby.

COMPASSION POSY
£90.00
A sumptuous round bouquet of lilies and roses rests against a stark white background, its colours and textures forming a luxurious, almost painterly composition. Dominating the design are generous white lilies, their long, curved petals unfolding to reveal pale interiors and prominent stamens, while a few firm green buds promise the continued opening of the arrangement over several days. Threaded gracefully among them are blush pink roses and creamy white roses, each bloom at a different moment in its life: some tight and modest, others fully open, showcasing lush, layered petals that look almost silk-soft to the touch. Deep pink to fuchsia Oriental lilies, similar to classic Stargazer lilies, bring intensity and focal drama, their petals flushed with rich magenta tones and speckled details that draw the eye in. All around, tiny white blossoms of baby's breath form a gossamer halo, filling spaces and giving the bouquet an airy, cloud-like softness. Subtle touches of fresh green foliage around the edges add depth and a natural rhythm, as though the flowers were gathered from a quiet corner of a Hither Green garden near Manor Park. The lighting is bright and even, enhancing the crisp whites and romantic pinks while casting almost no shadow, allowing each bloom to be clearly defined. This thoughtfully balanced bouquet feels ideal for marking life's tender milestones in Hither Green-an engagement, a special birthday, or a heartfelt thank-you-making it an inspired choice for those arranging elegant home celebrations or local deliveries to friends and family in SE13.
