FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY BASKET
£60.00
A softly lit studio photograph captures a graceful funeral flower basket set against a simple white background, allowing the gentle colours and textures of the design to speak quietly for themselves. The basket is woven in a light cream tone, with a smooth, curved handle arching above the flowers like a protective halo. The arrangement within is full and rounded, its blooms thoughtfully placed to create a sense of natural abundance, as if gathered from a calm garden walk near the green spaces of Abbey Wood. Dominating the centre is a single creamy white rose, unfurling in precise, layered spirals that suggest serenity, purity, and love that endures beyond parting. Flanking it, deep purple calla lilies stand in elegant, trumpet-like forms, their velvety surfaces catching the light and adding depth and sophistication often chosen for local memorials. Threaded throughout are soft lavender and pale lilac clematis-style blossoms, each with star-shaped petals and tiny yellow hearts, lending delicacy and movement to the design. Tucked among them, yellow blooms resembling alstroemeria or freesia provide small, cheerful flashes of colour, echoing moments of warmth and shared laughter amidst grief. On one side, a vivid magenta gerbera daisy peers out, its daisy-like face rich with radiating petals, a poignant symbol of individuality and bright memories. Surrounding all of these flowers is an abundance of green foliage, from broad, glossy leaves to lighter, feathery sprigs, creating a lush foundation that makes the colours sing. A subtle shadow beneath the basket gives a sense of depth, grounding the arrangement as though it has just been set down before being taken to a funeral service or home in Abbey Wood. The overall mood is one of quiet elegance and compassionate remembrance, suitable for expressing heartfelt condolences.
TREASURED MOMENTS BASKET
£65.00
This image shows a dignified sympathy flower basket captured against a clean white studio background, the simplicity of the setting allowing the colours and shapes to speak quietly for themselves. The arrangement rests in a pale wicker basket, its light beige strands woven tightly into a gently rectangular form, with a matching handle that arches gracefully over the flowers. The design has been built up into a soft, rounded dome, full but not crowded, the way an experienced Abbey Wood florist might shape a piece meant to sit on a memory table or beside a framed photograph. At the heart of the basket, several large, creamy white roses open fully, their velvety petals layering outward in soft spirals, each bloom embodying purity, remembrance, and enduring affection. Nestling between them are star-shaped clematis blossoms in delicate tones of pale lavender and periwinkle, their pointed petals creating a subtle contrast in form, while their bright yellow-green centres add an unexpected touch of light. Scattered throughout are smaller, freesia-like flowers in white and pale yellow, some in tight buds, others beginning to open, creating a sense of gentle movement and quiet unfolding. Occasional brighter yellow accents catch the eye, keeping the palette tender yet hopeful rather than heavy. Surrounding and grounding the flowers is an abundance of dark green foliage: broad, glossy leaves and finer stems that add depth, structure, and a sense of natural freshness, as if the design were just carried in from a garden near Bostall Woods. The overall mood is calm, reflective, and comforting-a tasteful funeral arrangement well suited to expressing sympathy, offering solace, and honouring cherished memories within the Abbey Wood community.
PEACE & PURITY BASKET
£65.00
This image shows a thoughtfully composed funeral flower arrangement, presented in a light wooden basket that rests on a plain white surface, the background kept simple so every petal and leaf can be appreciated. The basket itself is oval and gently elongated, made from pale, smooth slats, with four discreet feet lifting it just above the ground and giving it an air of quiet refinement. A softly arched handle in a matching cream tone rises from side to side, framing the flowers and suggesting the ease of carrying this tribute to a chapel or graveside in Abbey Wood. The arrangement forms a generous, rounded mound of blooms that slightly overflows the rim, creating a sense of abundance and care. At its heart, several creamy white roses are fully open, their layered, velvety petals curling outward in serene spirals that evoke purity and remembrance. Around them, clusters of deep red carnations bring depth and rich colour; their frilled, multi-layered petals catch the light and add texture. Interspersed are softer pink and white-edged carnations, their gentle hues offering comfort and warmth in moments of grief. Threaded among the larger flowers are delicate, small white blossoms, resembling freesias, their bell-shaped florets and slim stems adding movement and a suggestion of soft fragrance. All of this is nestled into a cushion of lush greenery: broad, glossy leaves providing structure and strength, while fine, fern-like sprigs rise here and there, giving an airy, natural edge. The red and white palette, offset by deep greens, feels both traditional and heartfelt, making this basket a suitable choice for funeral services, memorials near Bostall Woods, or condolence deliveries across Abbey Wood by a caring local florist.
REMEMBRANCE BASKET
£60.00
This photograph captures a richly textured, dome-shaped bouquet placed against a pure white background, the simplicity of which allows every bloom and leaf to stand out clearly. The arrangement feels both romantic and contemporary, like something you might have delivered to a cosy Abbey Wood home overlooking the greenery of Lesnes Abbey Woods. A profusion of garden roses in soft pastel shades forms the heart of the bouquet. Blush pink, buttery yellow, and creamy peach roses are clustered closely together, some fully open and revealing beautifully layered centres, others still slightly cupped, suggesting freshness and the promise of continued blooming. Threaded between these classic roses are airy clematis flowers, their star-like petals in white and pale lavender stretching outward with graceful ease. Each clematis is anchored by a distinctive yellow or white centre that adds a subtle focal point of brightness. Punctuating this softness are striking stems of blue eryngium, or sea holly, whose spiky, metallic blue heads lend a touch of wildness and structure, reminiscent of thistles caught in the breeze on the edges of a local park. Nestled deeper within the bouquet, rich purple lisianthus blooms provide depth and contrast, their velvety petals and ruffled buds sitting like shadows among lighter tones. Throughout the arrangement, clusters of bright red hypericum berries glimmer, offering playful, round accents that enliven the palette. The flowers are cradled in a collar of varied greenery: smooth, glossy leaves give stability and shape, while finer feathery foliage and glimmers of dark, burgundy-tinted leaves add texture and dimension. The overall impression is of a carefully composed, generous bouquet that would be perfect for an Abbey Wood celebration, whether as a birthday surprise, a romantic gesture, or a warm expression of gratitude delivered to someone special nearby.

COMPASSION POSY
£90.00
Set against a clean white background, this opulent bouquet of lilies, roses, and baby's breath forms a perfectly rounded dome of colour and texture, as though placed on a display table in an Abbey Wood Flowers studio. The eye is first drawn to the pristine white lilies, their long, sculpted petals opening wide like stars, revealing gentle green centers and delicate yellow stamens that suggest a subtle, fresh fragrance. Cradled between them, soft blush pink roses and creamy white roses appear in various stages of bloom, from tightly wrapped buds to fully opened blossoms with generous, velvety layers. To create contrast, several rich fuchsia and magenta Oriental lilies, similar to Stargazer lilies, rise up among the softer hues, their boldly speckled petals bending outward and adding a sense of drama and depth. Everywhere you look, tiny white flowers of gypsophila are threaded through the design, their cloud-like clusters casting a softening veil over the arrangement and filling the spaces between larger blooms. Hints of fresh green foliage peek from within, providing structure and a natural frame without overpowering the flowers. The white backdrop and bright, even lighting give the bouquet a crisp, almost three-dimensional presence, making each petal and bud seem freshly cut. This arrangement radiates warmth and romantic energy, suitable for celebrating a milestone birthday, an engagement, or a simple "thinking of you" moment. It feels perfectly at home in Abbey Wood, the kind of bouquet you might send to brighten a home overlooking the park or to accompany a family gathering nearby.
