Displayed against a clean white backdrop, this elongated sympathy spray flows diagonally like a soft, calming brushstroke. The arrangement is anchored by several striking white oriental lilies, some fully open, their wide, trumpet-shaped petals arching outward and slightly back, others just beginning to unfurl from smooth buds. The open blooms reveal delicate yellow-green stamens at their centres, lending a hint of warmth to the cool white palette. Woven around and between the lilies are clusters of lisianthus, or eustoma, whose smaller, bell-like flowers carry white petals gently rimmed with lavender and traced with fine purple veins, creating a subtle, cloud-like halo of colour. Many lisianthus buds remain closed or half-open, their slender forms bringing an intricate, almost lacy texture along the length of the spray. The blooms are supported and framed by a carefully arranged base of mixed greenery: broad, dark leaves provide a deep, restful background, while selected leaves are artfully folded, rolled, and looped to form contemporary, sculptural accents that show the florist's practiced hand. From the lower left, long, slim palm fronds or similar greens extend outward, echoing the tapered shape and adding a sense of gentle motion, like leaves stirring near the woodlands that gave Abbey Wood its name. The light in the image is even and soft, allowing the natural sheen of the foliage and the satin-like finish of the petals to stand out clearly. Intended as a funeral or memorial tribute for Abbey Wood families, the spray conveys purity, peace, and a quiet strength during moments of farewell.
SERENITY SPRAY
£75.00
This substantial sympathy spray is shown on a clean white background, allowing its sweeping teardrop shape and rich colours to stand out clearly. The design flows from a broad, full cluster of blooms at the upper left into a gentle, narrowing cascade that trails to the lower right. At the heart of the display are numerous deep red roses, fully open so that their velvety petals curl softly away from the centres, forming elegant spirals and layered cups of colour. Between and around these roses, bright red carnations and spray carnations are woven throughout, their finely ruffled petals giving the arrangement movement and intricacy, as if each flower were whispering its own small tribute. The reds create a harmonious spectrum from dark, almost burgundy tones to lively scarlet. Supporting this richness is an abundance of foliage. Wide, dark green leaves provide structure, framing the blooms and giving the spray a defined silhouette. Threaded among them are rounded eucalyptus leaves in muted, silvery green, which catch the light and introduce a calm, cooling note. From the tapered end at the lower right, fine stems of lighter green foliage extend softly, adding a sense of natural flow, reminiscent of leaves stirred by a breeze along Abbey Wood's quiet residential streets. The overall composition feels both traditional and thoughtfully personal, the sort of arrangement Abbey Wood Flowers might prepare for a farewell service near Lesnes Abbey. It conveys deep sympathy and steadfast love, with every rose and carnation seemingly placed to honour shared stories, gentle moments, and a life remembered with gratitude.
DEEP AFFECTION CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY SPRAY £300
£300.00
Set on a pure white background, this elegant sympathy sheaf flows gently from top left to bottom right, echoing the shape of a falling teardrop and creating a sense of calm movement. At its centre, dramatic Stargazer lilies command attention with their rich magenta-pink petals, sharply bordered in white and scattered with deep burgundy speckles, each star-shaped bloom opening outwards with heartfelt intensity. Some lily buds remain closed, slender and green, tinged with pale pink, symbolising memories that are treasured and ongoing. Nestled among these lilies are striking magenta gerbera daisies, which bring a vibrant touch of colour and warmth, while creamy white roses, both budding and partially open, offer quiet elegance and respect. Fluffy, ruffled white carnations weave through the design, adding softness and volume like gentle layers of cloud, and tiny white daisy-like filler flowers introduce delicate detail. A generous collar of lush foliage surrounds the blooms: broad, glossy dark green leaves provide structure and depth, feathery fern fronds soften the edges, and long, blade-like leaves cascade down towards the bottom right, reinforcing the elongated, cascading form. The stems, neatly bound at the top left, clearly show the hand-crafted nature of the piece, as though it has just been arranged in a local Abbey Wood flower shop. This funeral spray would be at home in a quiet chapel by Abbey Wood's tree-lined streets, at a service near Bostall Heath, or delivered to a family home as a comforting gesture. Its blend of vivid pinks, serene whites, and rich greenery creates a thoughtful expression of sympathy, remembrance, and enduring love.
SPECIAL THOUGHTS SPRAY
£75.00
Set against a plain white studio backdrop, this elegant teardrop-shaped sympathy spray combines soft pink and white flowers in a design that feels calm, composed, and deeply respectful, like something created for a final farewell in Abbey Wood's peaceful surroundings. The fuller left side of the spray is packed with pink roses in subtle variations of tone, from the lightest blush to a deeper rose-pink glow. Some roses are just beginning to unfurl, while others are fully open, their spiralled petals forming intricate, cup-like blooms that suggest tenderness and care. Nestled among them are white carnations and petite spray carnations, whose frilled petals add texture and lightness, brightening the overall palette much like a break of sunshine through the trees of nearby Bostall Woods. Underpinning the flowers is a generous layer of foliage. Broad, glossy dark green leaves provide structure and a clear outline to the teardrop form, while rounded eucalyptus leaves in muted silvery green appear throughout the spray, adding depth, contrast, and a hint of herbal fragrance. From the tapered right-hand end, fine strands of trailing greenery, likely ruscus, extend gracefully, reinforcing the sense of gentle downward movement and the symbolic shape of a falling tear. The entire design radiates a sense of serene remembrance and quiet comfort, ideal for use as a casket spray or main tribute at an Abbey Wood funeral service. It speaks of enduring love and the wish to say goodbye with beauty, dignity, and softness.
IN YOUR HONOUR CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
An elegant sympathy arrangement in shades of white and green is photographed against a crisp white background, its elongated, one-sided form creating a gentle diagonal across the frame. At its heart, several prominent white lilies open broadly, their trumpet-shaped petals curving back to reveal pale pistils and softly dusted stamens, while a few tall buds rise gracefully above, adding height and a sense of unfolding time. Clustered nearby are creamy white roses in various stages of bloom, from tight buds to more open, layered centres, mingling with soft, ruffled white carnations. Simple white daisy-like flowers, reminiscent of Gerberas, peek through, each with a faintly tinted centre that adds delicate contrast without breaking the serene palette. The blooms are threaded with tiny white filler flowers, which create a light, airy veil around the more substantial petals. The surrounding foliage is lush and thoughtfully placed: broad, glossy dark green leaves form a strong backdrop, their sheen catching the light, while feathery fern fronds and rounded eucalyptus leaves add texture and cooler green-blue nuances. At the top of the spray, long, slender leaves are neatly folded and bound into upright shapes that guide the eye downward, where a striking spray of thin palm fronds extends from the lower right. These palms fan outward in elegant lines, giving the piece a sense of flow, like a soft breeze passing through the trees around Abbey Wood's parks. Designed to be viewed from the front, the spray feels composed, calm, and deeply respectful, perfectly suited for funeral services, chapel tributes, or home memorials in and around the Abbey Wood community.
SIMPLICITY SPRAY
£75.00
With the tranquil ambiance that one might find walking along Abbey Wood's tree-lined streets, this diagonal floral spray strikes a balance of composure and warmth. At its centre, elegant white lilies-some in stately bloom, others in promise-filled bud-anchor the arrangement, radiating purity and grace. Clusters of lush pink roses, their petals gently curling outward, introduce an air of remembrance and heartfelt affection, echoing memories made in local gardens or near Bostall Woods. Spherical clusters of vivid green santini chrysanthemums interject contemporary flair and tactile appeal, while crisp white carnations nestle between, enhancing the spray's fullness and lightness. Vivid red hypericum berries sprinkled throughout provide a playful, uplifting accent, their round forms mirroring nature's bounty. Rich green foliage abounds, with broad, shiny leaves artfully folded for structure, intermingled with lighter, feathered fronds and palm-like leaves cascading to one side, generating a sense of gentle movement and flow. Ambient daylight highlights the bouquet's textures and depth, inviting quiet reflection. This arrangement from Abbey Wood's local artisans captures the essence of comfort and respect, making it an ideal tribute to commemorate a life with dignity and heartfelt care, delivered with sensitivity across Abbey Wood and surrounding communities.
FOREVER ADMIRED SPRAY
£75.00
GENTLE THOUGHTS SPRAY
GENTLE THOUGHTS SPRAY
£90.00
Against a clean white background, this red and white sympathy spray is laid out horizontally, its shape reminiscent of a gently curving branch or a quiet stream of flowers flowing from left to right. The left side of the arrangement is fuller and slightly higher, gradually tapering into a fine, trailing point on the right, giving the design a sense of gentle direction, as if guiding the eye along the path of remembrance. At the heart of the spray are deep red roses, their velvety petals densely layered and tightly furled, evoking enduring affection, honour, and the depth of sorrow at saying goodbye. Interspersed among them, white carnations bloom in soft, frilled spheres, bringing a lighter, airy texture and symbolizing peace, innocence, and serene reflection. The blooms are supported by a lush collar of greenery: broad, dark leaves create a strong foundation, while paler, silvery-green eucalyptus leaves add dimension and a cool, soothing hue, along with a faint, refreshing scent. From the right-hand edge, slender sprigs of delicate greenery extend beyond the main body, lending the arrangement a natural, cascading grace that feels at home in the leafy surroundings of Abbey Wood's residential streets and woodland paths. The careful distribution of roses and carnations, the classic red and white palette, and the low, reclining form together mark this as a traditional funeral tribute, perfect as a casket spray or focal floral piece at a memorial service. It reflects the kind of compassionate, detailed work an Abbey Wood florist might prepare for families seeking a respectful, beautifully balanced expression of sympathy and remembrance.
FOREVER BELOVED CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
A graceful funeral spray of red roses and berries lies diagonally across a pristine white background, its elongated shape suggesting a gentle, final farewell. The central focus is a generous gathering of red roses in varying stages of opening: some tight and compact, others unfurling in layered spirals that give a sense of depth and softness. Interwoven among them are small clusters of rounded Hypericum berries, shaded in pinkish-red tones that echo the roses while introducing a subtly different texture, like tiny polished beads. All of this is set against a lush bed of dark green foliage, with broad, glossy leaves forming the main structure of the design. From within this verdant base, lighter, feathery palm fronds and finer greenery reach outward, especially towards the lower right, creating a sense of movement and an elegant, tapered outline that feels both composed and natural. The stems at the upper left are bound together and wrapped in a smooth band of green leaf, giving a clean, professional finish typical of experienced florists working in the Abbey Wood area. The clean white backdrop enhances the contrast between the vivid reds and deep greens, highlighting every curve of petal and line of foliage. This solemn yet comforting spray is perfectly suited for funerals, wakes, or memorial services in Abbey Wood, offering a visually serene tribute that conveys love, respect, and quiet support during moments of farewell.
EVERLASTING LIGHT SPRAY
£75.00
A dignified white funeral spray, photographed on a pure white background, lies diagonally so that its fuller, mounded head of flowers anchors the upper left while its slender, tapering tail reaches gracefully towards the lower right. The arrangement is lavish with pristine white and gentle ivory roses, some still in bud and others fully unfurled, revealing velvety petals that spiral inward to soft centres. Between the roses, white carnations are generously scattered, their frilled, almost frothy petals adding texture and a sense of softness, like layers of fine fabric among the more structured blooms. The flowers appear fresh and dewy, as if just arranged at Abbey Wood Flowers before being delivered to a quiet service near Bostall Woods or a chapel along the local residential streets. A bed of lush foliage supports and frames the blossoms. Broad, silvery eucalyptus leaves lie close to the main body of the spray, bringing cool, subtle colour variation, while deeper green ruscus and similar greenery extend in graceful arcs along the outline. At the narrower end, some foliage trails further, accentuating the classic teardrop silhouette often chosen for sympathy tributes. The lighting is soft and balanced, ensuring that each rose and carnation, along with every leaf vein, is clearly visible without distraction. The overall impression is gentle yet composed, expressing purity, peace, and deep respect. This floral spray would be fitting atop a casket or placed beside a photograph at a memorial gathering in Abbey Wood, offering comfort and a visual expression of love and remembrance when family and friends come together to say farewell.
DIVINE GRACE CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
HEAVENS LIGHT SPRAY
HEAVEN'S LIGHT SPRAY
£70.00
A softly flowing casket spray of pastel pink roses and blush carnations is pictured against a plain white background, its quiet elegance well suited to a funeral or memorial service in Abbey Wood. The design follows a graceful teardrop shape, full and rounded at the upper left where the flowers cluster most densely, and tapering in a controlled line toward the lower right, where the blooms narrow into a gentle point. The primary flowers are numerous pink roses, their velvety petals unfolding layer by layer. Some heads are fully open, revealing intricate spirals, while others remain half-open, suggesting freshness and life. The pink tones are understated, moving from airy blush to a more mellow, dusty rose, creating a soothing, harmonious effect. Between the roses are generous clusters of light peach-pink carnations, each flower composed of finely frilled petals that lend a soft, almost cloud-like texture to the spray. Around and beneath the blooms, deep green foliage provides contrast and structure: broader, slightly glossy leaves lay close to the body of the arrangement, anchoring it visually, while slender, pointed stems of greenery trail along the edges and from the tip, reinforcing the sense of gentle movement. The white background and even lighting make it easy to distinguish the layers of flowers and leaves, as though one were standing close to the arrangement in the stillness of an Abbey Wood chapel. This tribute feels like a compassionate gesture, a floral way to say a tender goodbye and offer comfort to family and friends gathered to remember a loved one.
COMPASSIONATE FEELING CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
PINK ROSES
PINK ROSES SERVICE ARRANGEMENT
£90.00
An elegant red casket spray is presented against a seamless white background, its long, tapering form echoing the gentle curve of a resting figure, perfect for a funeral or memorial service in Abbey Wood's churches or crematorium chapels. The central section is densely packed with rich red blooms, creating a deep, velvety carpet of colour. Red roses form the emotional core of the arrangement, some standing proudly open with their spiralling petals, others still partially closed, their buds hinting at stories left partly told. Intertwined with the roses, abundant red carnations introduce volume and softness, each blossom made up of layers of finely ruffled petals that blur the boundaries between neighbouring flowers. Scattered throughout, red gerbera daisies lift the surface of the spray with their bold, daisy-like faces and distinctive centers, adding a sense of openness and clarity to the design. Punctuating this sea of crimson, tiny white filler flowers-resembling baby's breath or petite chrysanthemum clusters-are lightly sprinkled, providing subtle contrast and lending a gentle, airy lightness to the whole. Surrounding the blooms, long palm fronds arc outward in sweeping strokes of deep green, establishing the dramatic, elongated outline of the spray and suggesting a protective cradle for the flowers. Beneath and between, layers of shorter, broader leaves, likely salal or ruscus, create a dense, verdant cushion, while delicate fern-like fronds add fine, feathery texture that feels reminiscent of Abbey Wood's green spaces and tree-lined paths. Near the top, a generous red satin ribbon is fashioned into a polished bow, its glossy loops and trailing streamers flowing down into the heart of the arrangement, reinforcing the rich red theme. The result is a dignified, expressive tribute, ideal for Abbey Wood families seeking a traditional red funeral arrangement that conveys deep love, respect, and a lasting farewell.

£120.00
SINCERITY SPRAY
SINCERITY SPRAY
£70.00
Presented against a clean white background, this dignified casket spray appears as a carefully composed band of colour and texture, evocative of the quiet, tree-lined streets and green spaces around Abbey Wood. The arrangement is long and slightly angled, fuller in the centre and gently tapering at each end, designed to rest along the length of a coffin. Dominating the heart of the display are rich red lilies, their wide, star-shaped blooms and speckled petals opening with a sense of deep emotion and devotion. Interwoven with these lilies are luxurious roses in shades of cream, ivory, and soft blush pink; some petals are tightly wrapped, while others reveal fully opened rosettes, symbolising both the fragility and fullness of life. Pale pink carnations ripple through the design, their frilled petals offering a cloud-like softness that contrasts beautifully with the sleek, smooth rose petals. Dotted between the larger blooms, small white flowers and tiny daisy-like blossoms lend a delicate brightness, reminiscent of scattered wildflowers along local Abbey Wood pathways. Touches of blue-purple thistle and sprays of fine lavender or statice provide cool, textural highlights, adding depth and a refined, modern feel. All of this is supported by an abundant foundation of dark green foliage, featuring broad, glossy leaves and lighter, feathery greens that extend beyond the main body of flowers, giving a natural, garden-inspired outline. The mood of the piece is gentle and consoling, as though crafted by an Abbey Wood florist who understands how flowers can speak of sympathy, remembrance, and enduring love when words feel insufficient.
