An eloquent funeral cross presented against a stark white background, the main expanse formed entirely from immaculate white chrysanthemums packed closely to create a plush, cloud-like surface that suggests purity and calm. Along the outer edge a sumptuous purple satin ribbon-pleated and ruffled-traces the outline, offering a refined, sombre accent that deepens the visual impact. Clear, legible letters spelling MUM run vertically, crafted from smaller, richly coloured purple flower heads such as eustoma or spray chrysanthemums, their compact petals set deliberately to contrast strongly with the white field beneath. At the arm intersection a luxuriant spray acts as the emotional focal point: velvet deep-violet roses sit beside softer lavender lisianthus or eustoma, interspersed with variegated greenery whose light-edged leaves and darker centres create sculptural depth; occasional small green berries lend a subtle, tactile punctuation. The arrangement's colours-from pristine white through pale lavender to saturated violet-are chosen to convey dignified mourning, respect and enduring affection, while the dense petal placement adds a reassuring, embracing weight. A gentle, powdery floral scent lingers, reminiscent of a tidy garden after rain, and the satin border gives a faint luminous edge under soft lighting. Designed for use at memorial services, chapels or graveside tributes around Orpington, this cross speaks to traditional Christian symbolism while feeling intimate and hand-crafted. Local families may picture it placed in a church near Orpington High Street or at the Priory Gardens remembrance area as a personal message of love and farewell.

A tender, cross-shaped funeral tribute pictured against a clean white backdrop: the solid body of the cross is gently cushioned with densely packed, pristine white chrysanthemum heads whose soft, downy texture reads of purity and quiet. The entire perimeter is edged with a ruffled, deep purple satin ribbon that frames the piece with a sober, elegant border, the satin catching a soft studio light and adding subtle sheen. Down the vertical arm the letters MUM are clearly formed in rich purple blooms-smaller eustoma or spray chrysanthemums-each letter sculpted so the purple petals sit crisply against the white cushion beneath. At the crossing a lush central spray anchors the tribute: a compact, verdant cluster of deep violet roses, pale lavender lisianthus or eustoma, and delicate variegated foliage with light green margins and darker centres, the leaves adding a cool, textured contrast and a whisper of garden freshness. Scattered tiny green berries punctuate the cluster, offering a quiet tactile contrast among the petals. The colour story-pure white to soft lavender and deep violet-conveys dignity, peace and a restrained sorrow; the arrangement feels composed for a Christian funeral service, graveside farewell or memorial within the local Orpington community. There's a faint, powdery scent suggesting spring gardens after rain, and the arrangement's compact density gives a reassuring sense of presence and embrace. As a local florist would note, this is a deliberately personal tribute that reads both classic and intimate, suitable for family viewing in a church or chapel near Orpington High Street or Priory Gardens.

    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.
