SPRAYS/SHEAVES
Set against a bright white backdrop, this elongated sympathy spray unfolds like a painted stroke of colour, moving gently from one end to the other. Deep red roses, some in tight bud and others fully open, sit alongside bold red gerbera daisies and clusters of ruffled red carnations, creating a rich tapestry of crimson tones associated with love, devotion, and cherished memories. Punctuating this sea of red, vivid lime-green chrysanthemum pompons appear as neat, spherical bursts of colour, their almost neon hue lending a fresh, contemporary note to the traditional funeral palette. Tiny white filler blooms, resembling miniature daisies or gypsophila, are dotted throughout the design, softening edges and adding an airy, cloud-like lightness. Surrounding the flowers, a lush frame of mixed greenery gives structure and calm. Broad, glossy leaves provide depth and contrast, while feathery fern fronds and other finely textured greens extend outward, creating a feeling of gentle movement. On the lower right, long, slender leaves splay out in a fan, emphasising the graceful tapering line of the spray. At the top left, a neat bundle of tall green stems lifts the eye upward, with a single broad leaf wrapped artfully around their base, a touch of modern floristry that adds quiet sophistication. This thoughtful arrangement, reminiscent of something a local Woolwich florist might prepare for a service near the Royal Arsenal or a church on the hill, speaks of comfort, remembrance, and the beauty of a life honoured with care.

FLORIST CHOICE SPRAY
FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY SPRAY £100
£100.00
FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY SPRAY £200
£200.00
A refined, teardrop-shaped funeral spray of white flowers and greenery stretches diagonally across a pure white background, its composition calm and assured, like a quiet farewell spoken in a Woolwich chapel. At the heart of the design, several prominent white lilies open in stages: some fully blooming with wide, trumpet-shaped petals and pale golden stamens, others still half closed, their smooth buds suggesting unspoken memories and love that lingers. Around and between these lilies, delicate lisianthus blossoms are arranged in small, cloud-like groups, their mostly white petals kissed at the edges with soft lavender or light purple, creating a gentle veil of colour that never overwhelms. Numerous lisianthus buds, rounded and green-tipped, bring depth and a sense of movement, as though the spray is slowly breathing. The foliage beneath is generous and varied, forming a bed of rich greens that cradle the blooms. Broad leaves with a glossy sheen overlap to create structure, while a selection of leaves has been artfully folded and rolled, showing a florist's practiced hand and eye for detail. Slender palm fronds extend outwards in a graceful sweep, echoing the curve of the Thames as it bends past Woolwich and giving the arrangement an airy, flowing line. The entire piece narrows to a fine point at one end, guiding the gaze gently downward. Though the background is stark and simple, the arrangement itself radiates a serene dignity, ideal for resting on a coffin, a memorial table in a Woolwich crematorium, or at a graveside gathering, offering comfort, purity, and a sense of quietly enduring respect.
SERENITY SPRAY
£75.00
Displayed on a clean white background, this substantial funeral spray draws the eye with its deep, resonant reds and graceful, sweeping form. The arrangement broadens generously at the upper left, where the flowers nestle closely together, then gently tapers to a soft, trailing tip at the lower right, creating a classic casket spray silhouette. At its heart are velvety dark red roses, many in full bloom, their petals unfolding in layered spirals that suggest devotion and enduring love. Interwoven among them are ruffled red carnations and smaller spray carnations, each bloom dense with finely fringed petals that lend a soft, cloud-like texture. Surrounding this rich field of red is a structured bed of greenery. Dark, glossy leaves anchor the base, while sprigs of silvery-green eucalyptus weave through the roses, adding a cool, misty note that lightens the composition. From the tapered end, slender stems of lighter green foliage trail naturally, as though the arrangement is gently cascading downwards, echoing the quiet fall of tears. The balance of rich colour and composed greenery gives the design a serene, contemplative mood, suitable for a funeral or memorial service where words may feel limited. It is easy to imagine this tribute being delivered fresh to a Woolwich church or crematorium, thoughtfully prepared by a local florist who understands how important it is for flowers to carry comfort, memory, and a sense of dignified farewell.
DEEP AFFECTION CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY SPRAY £300
£300.00
A graceful sympathy spray stretches diagonally across a pure white background, its elongated form resembling a gently falling tear, full of colour and quiet emotion. Dominating the centre are dramatic Stargazer lilies, their wide, recurved petals glowing in shades of fuchsia and deep pink, edged in clean white with fine burgundy speckles that draw the eye inward. Some blooms are fully open, revealing their stamens, while others remain in smooth green and pink buds, suggesting the continuation of love and memory. Nestled beside them, plush magenta gerbera daisies bring a vivid, contemporary touch, contrasted by clusters of white roses and soft, ruffled white carnations that add stillness and calm. Tiny white daisy-like filler flowers tuck between the larger heads, giving the impression of scattered stars or gentle breath within the design. Surrounding all the blooms is a rich collar of greenery: broad dark leaves frame the spray, airy fern fronds create a delicate halo, and long, slender blades of foliage sweep out towards the lower right, reinforcing the cascading movement. The stems are tightly bound at the top left, showing the careful craftsmanship of an experienced Woolwich florist, perhaps preparing this piece for a farewell service near Woolwich Arsenal or a quiet crematorium gathering. The palette of deep pinks, crisp whites, and fresh greens feels both solemn and hopeful, making this arrangement a meaningful choice for funeral flowers, condolence deliveries, or a memorial tribute for families across Woolwich and the surrounding SE18 community who wish to express love, remembrance, and support.
SPECIAL THOUGHTS SPRAY
£75.00
An elegant funeral spray in a long, teardrop form is shown resting against a stark white backdrop, every petal and leaf clearly defined. The arrangement begins with a generous cluster of soft pink roses at the rounded top, shaded from pale blush to a deeper rose pink, their spiral centres opening like quiet whispers of love. Alongside them, pristine white carnations fill the gaps, their finely ruffled petals adding a cloud-like softness that contrasts gently with the smoothness of the rose blooms. Dark, glossy foliage forms the solid backbone of the piece, cradling the flowers and framing the design in a deep green outline. Tucked among this base are muted eucalyptus leaves, with their rounded, silvery discs introducing texture and a cool, soothing tone that balances the warmer pinks. As the eye follows the spray toward the slender tip, the flowers gradually thin and the greenery begins to take over, with narrow strands of trailing ruscus and other fine leaves cascading gracefully and drawing the eye downward. The shape suggests both a loving embrace and a final, tender farewell, making it a fitting tribute for a casket or to be placed beside a photograph at a memorial service. The mood is one of calm dignity, the sort of floral tribute a family in Woolwich might choose for a service near General Gordon Square or one of the local churches, where the soft colours and thoughtful craftsmanship speak on their behalf when words feel too hard to find.
IN YOUR HONOUR CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
A refined sympathy spray of white and green is photographed against a clean white background, its design clearly intended to be viewed from the front, like a gentle wave of flowers flowing diagonally across the frame. The eye is immediately drawn to the central cluster of white Oriental lilies, some fully open with broad, satiny petals and prominent yellow-green stamens, others still in elongated bud form, promising continued grace over the days of farewell. Around them, soft white roses at different stages of opening mingle with ruffled white carnations and neat white gerbera daisies, each with a modest dark or pale yellow heart, creating a quiet rhythm of shapes and tones. Fine white filler blossoms are sprinkled between the larger flowers, giving a sense of airiness and movement reminiscent of light drifting across the Thames near Woolwich Arsenal. A lush collar of foliage cradles the blooms: broad, glossy dark leaves provide a strong backdrop, delicate ferns lend an almost feathery softness, and rounded eucalyptus leaves introduce cooler green-blue notes. At the top of the spray, slim green leaves are artfully folded and bound, forming a structured vertical detail that balances the composition. From the lower right, long, slender palm fronds sweep outward in a graceful fan, stretching the arrangement into a modern, elongated silhouette characteristic of formal funeral tributes. The colour palette of pristine white against layered greens conveys respect, purity, and quiet strength, making this piece a fitting memorial arrangement for services in Woolwich churches, crematorium chapels, or family homes where loved ones gather in reflection.
SIMPLICITY SPRAY
£75.00
BEAUTIFUL SPIRIT SPRAY
FOREVER ADMIRED SPRAY
£75.00
An elegant, cascading funeral spray of blue and white roses stretches diagonally across a pure white backdrop, its composition thoughtfully arranged to evoke both movement and repose. The upper left of the design is full and rounded, gradually narrowing into a soft point at the lower right, like a gentle wave flowing away from the viewer. Within this arc, approximately two dozen roses are carefully placed, each bloom open and plush. Deep sapphire blue roses sit alongside creamy ivory and snow-white roses, the colours interlacing so that the eye drifts naturally from one tone to the next, much like watching the changing light along Woolwich Common. The blue roses feel strong and resolute, while the pale blooms introduce a sense of peace and remembrance.   

Among the roses, delicate tufts of white baby's breath bring a fine, cloudlike texture, their tiny blossoms catching the light and giving the arrangement a soft, ethereal quality. The floral heart is supported by an abundance of foliage: broad, glossy dark green leaves form the base, while bright green, feathery fern fronds rise from the top left, adding height and lift. From the lower right, long, narrow palm fronds sweep outward and down, defining the signature teardrop silhouette and creating a feeling of quiet motion, as if the piece were gently drifting. Here and there, bluish-green eucalyptus-style sprigs introduce cool, muted tones and rounded leaves that contrast with the sharper lines of the palms.   

Decorative green-and-cream bands of folded foliage are woven through the centre, demonstrating the precision and artistry you might expect from a seasoned local florist serving families in Woolwich. The result is a dignified sympathy spray that conveys respect, solemn beauty and enduring love, suitable for memorials, celebration of life services, or final farewells along the riverside.
GENTLE THOUGHTS SPRAY
£90.00
Displayed against a smooth white backdrop, this elongated sympathy arrangement appears calm and composed, evoking the quiet stillness of a funeral service in Woolwich. The design is horizontal, with a lush, rounded cluster of blooms on the left that slowly tapers into a narrower, trailing point on the right, as if the flowers are gently leading the eye along a path of farewell. Deep red roses dominate the composition, each one a rich, velvety bloom with tightly layered petals that curl inward, suggesting deep affection, respect, and a grief that is both strong and dignified. Between them, generous white carnations are tucked in closely, their ruffled petals offering a delicate, cloud-like softness and a sense of purity and remembrance. The flowers rest on a structured foundation of greenery. Dark green leaves with a glossy surface create a solid base, supporting the blooms in a mounded shape that feels safe and embracing, like the support of loved ones gathered along Woolwich High Street after a service. Silvery-green eucalyptus leaves weave throughout, bringing a cool, muted hue and a fresh, aromatic note that lightens the visual weight of the design. On the right-hand side, fine, trailing stems of lighter foliage cascade softly outward, providing a graceful finish and enhancing the sense of flow. The overall palette of red, white, and green feels both traditional and deeply comforting, ideally suited for a casket spray or memorial tribute. Suitable for deliveries to local churches, chapels, and homes across Woolwich, this floral piece offers a thoughtful, elegant expression of sympathy and respect.
FOREVER BELOVED CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
Set on a pristine white background, this long, diagonal funeral spray of red roses has the calm presence of a final farewell arranged with great care. A generous line of deep crimson roses runs through the centre, each bloom velvety and full of feeling, ranging from tight buds that promise life to open flowers that reveal every layered petal. Scattered between them, clusters of pinkish-red Hypericum berries nestle like tiny beads of light, bringing a gentle shimmer and tactile interest to the design. The flowers rest on a bed of lush, dark green foliage, with broad, glossy leaves-reminiscent of Salal or Ruscus-creating a strong visual base and defining the elongated, slightly tapered silhouette. From the lower right, bright green palm fronds and other feathery foliage arc outward, softening the outline and adding a sense of movement, as though a quiet Woolwich breeze were touching the leaves on a still morning near the Common. You can almost imagine the subtle rustle of greenery and the faint, earthy scent of fresh-cut stems, newly prepared by skilled hands. The stems at the top left are neatly bound and concealed beneath a carefully wrapped green leaf, giving the arrangement a tailored, ceremonial finish. This classic red and green tribute, with its harmonious blend of roses, berries, and foliage, feels traditional yet thoughtfully modern in its clean lines. It would sit beautifully in a Woolwich chapel of rest or at a graveside service, expressing deep respect, enduring love, and a gentle wish for peace.
EVERLASTING LIGHT SPRAY
£75.00
A refined white funeral spray is arranged in an elegant crescent on a pristine white background, the design moving in a gentle diagonal sweep from a full, rounded cluster of blossoms on the upper left to a delicate, tapering point towards the lower right. The arrangement is dominated by pristine white and soft cream roses, their petals unfolding in intricate spirals, some just beginning to open, others fully expanded into cupped, velvety blooms. Nestled between them, frilly white carnations introduce a ruffled, almost feather-soft texture that gives the spray a sense of quiet softness and layered detail. The flowers are supported by a carefully composed bed of greenery: broad, silvery-green eucalyptus leaves with a slightly matte surface weave among the roses, while deeper green foliage frames the edges. Long, slender stems of ruscus and similar trailing greens cascade from the base and drift along the right side, emphasising the teardrop shape and adding a natural, flowing movement to the design. The lighting is gentle, allowing the creamy whites and greens to appear tranquil and pure, with just enough shadow to show dimension and craftsmanship. This serene tribute feels perfectly suited to a memorial service in Woolwich, perhaps after a procession past the Thames Path or near the historic Arsenal buildings, where families gather to remember a life with dignity. It conveys the calm, steady comfort that flowers can bring when words fall short, reflecting care, reverence, and the quiet support of the local florists who understand the community's needs.
DIVINE GRACE CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
This image shows a beautifully composed yellow rose funeral spray, laid diagonally against a clean white background so that every detail is clearly visible. The spray begins at the upper left, where the stems are firmly bound and cloaked in a collar of broad, dark green leaves that have been expertly folded and overlapped, forming a solid, architectural base. From there, the design flows gently downwards towards the lower right, tapering into a soft point defined by long palm-like fronds whose slender, graceful leaflets lend a touch of airy elegance. Throughout the length of the spray, clusters of yellow roses are arranged with care. The blooms vary in openness, some small and tight, others fully unfurled to reveal concentric layers of velvety petals in a soothing golden hue. Nestled between the roses are bunches of gleaming red Hypericum berries, their rounded shapes catching the light and adding a subtle, textural contrast that brings the arrangement to life. The supporting foliage fills any gaps, with greens of different shapes and finishes creating depth and a natural, garden-like feel. The soft, even lighting in the photograph highlights the textures of each petal, leaf, and berry without casting harsh shadows, lending the arrangement a calm, contemplative mood. This is the sort of tribute a local Woolwich family might choose to send to a funeral at a nearby chapel or crematorium, a thoughtful expression of sympathy that carries warmth and respect along the busy streets beginning at Woolwich Arsenal and stretching towards the river.
HEAVEN'S LIGHT SPRAY
£70.00
Set against a clean white background, this elongated sympathy spray appears as a tranquil pink cloud of remembrance, the kind of tribute one might see at a thoughtful service in Woolwich, near the river or around the historic Arsenal area. The design forms a flowing teardrop shape, fuller at the upper left and tapering gently to a soft point at the lower right, with a few strands of greenery extending beyond, as if the arrangement is exhaling a last, tender breath of farewell. At its heart, clusters of soft pink roses dominate, from wide-open blossoms revealing intricate spirals of petals to tighter buds that promise beauty still held close. Their tones range from pale blush to slightly deeper dusty rose, creating a subtle gradient across the surface. Nestled between these roses, light peach-pink carnations with finely ruffled edges add texture and a sense of gentle movement, like ripples through a quiet park on a still day. Beneath and around the blooms, rich dark green foliage provides structure and contrast: broad, protective leaves support the flowers, while slimmer, feathery stems weave through the design, softening the outer edges. The overall mood is serene and consoling, with pastel flowers and lush greenery combining to express love, gratitude, and respect for a cherished life. The arrangement is clearly intended for a casket, memorial table, or graveside tribute, a carefully crafted piece that could be delivered to local Woolwich chapels or crematoria, offering those who gather a visual symbol of shared grief and gentle solidarity in a difficult moment.
COMPASSIONATE FEELING CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
A generous bundle of fresh blush pink roses rests across a pure white background, as though laid down for a final check on the workbench of a Woolwich florist preparing a sympathy bouquet. Around two dozen long-stemmed roses gather in a loose, natural fan, their flower heads forming a dense cluster to the lower left, while the stems extend neatly towards the upper right. Each bloom shows subtle variations of soft pastel pink, from pale shell and champagne tones to delicate dusty rose and faint lavender glints deep in the tightly layered centres. Many of the petals are still wrapped in graceful spirals, with just the outer edges beginning to unfurl, giving the arrangement a feeling of gentle anticipation rather than full exuberance. A few roses are slightly more open, revealing intricate whorls of velvet-textured petals that invite the eye inward. Behind and between the blooms, dark emerald-green leaves frame the flowers, their smooth, slightly glossy surfaces setting off the pastel tones and confirming the freshness of the cut stems. The white backdrop is bright and uncluttered, allowing the roses to appear almost weightless, as if suspended in quiet light like a moment of reflection along the Thames path in Woolwich or in the peaceful spaces near St Mary Magdalene Church. The overall mood is soothing, respectful, and deeply tender, conveying compassion without excess. This is the kind of understated, elegant rose bouquet often chosen to express condolences, offer comfort to a grieving family, or accompany a message of remembrance on a sombre occasion in and around Woolwich.
PINK ROSES SERVICE ARRANGEMENT
£90.00
A grand red funeral spray stretches gracefully across a pure white background, shaped like a flowing teardrop that widens at the center and narrows at the ends, echoing the curve of a casket or memorial stand in a Woolwich service. At its heart is a lavish mass of deep red roses, their velvety petals layered in intricate spirals, some blooms open and generous, others still in half-bud, suggesting a life remembered in many stages. Nestled among them are rich red carnations, their ruffled petals forming soft cushions of colour that give the design a plush, comforting texture. Scattered thoughtfully throughout are red gerbera daisies, their open, daisy-like faces and darker centers bringing a sense of vitality and movement, like bright memories shining out from the deeper red tones. Small clusters of fine white filler flowers are gently woven between the crimson blooms, adding lightness and contrast, as if tiny points of reflection or whispered prayers. A bold red satin ribbon forms a large, multi-looped bow near the top of the spray, its glossy tails trailing down through the arrangement, guiding the eye along the length of the tribute and underscoring its ceremonial grace. The flowers are cradled in a lush framework of greenery: long, sweeping palm fronds extend outward to define the spray's elegant outline, while dark green leaves, likely salal or ruscus, pack the interior with fullness and depth. Sprigs of fern-like foliage peek through at intervals, introducing gentle feathery texture. This dignified red and green composition, perfectly suited to a funeral service in Woolwich or nearby Plumstead and Charlton, expresses enduring love, reverence, and heartfelt condolence in a bold yet tender way.
ALWAYS IN MY HEART CASKET SPRAY
£120.00
SINCERITY SPRAY
SINCERITY SPRAY
£70.00
Set against a clean white background, this elongated funeral spray appears almost to drift gently from left to right, echoing the slow, reflective pace of a farewell walk through Woolwich's quiet side streets. At its heart, velvety deep red lilies unfurl in broad, star-like blooms, their rich colour creating focal points that convey strength and devotion. Around them, soft cream and blush pink roses curve gracefully, some just beginning to open, others fully bloomed with layered petals that suggest cherished memories unfolding over time. Pale pink carnations, with their finely frilled edges, soften the composition further, while small white daisy or chrysanthemum-style flowers are tucked in between, ensuring no space feels empty or forgotten. Threaded through the warmer tones are delicate stems of blue-purple thistles and tiny lavender-blue fillers, adding texture and cool contrast, much like the subtle blues of the river glimpsed from Woolwich's riverside walk. A lush foundation of greenery - broad, deep green leaves and light, feathery foliage - frames the flowers and extends at the edges, giving the spray an organic, flowing outline that feels both natural and composed. The overall impression is one of quiet reassurance and gentle comfort, a tribute that would sit beautifully on a casket or at the front of a memorial service, offering family and friends in Woolwich a serene and thoughtful expression of sympathy and remembrance crafted with a florist's careful, experienced hand.
CARING THOUGHTS CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
A refined and emotive funeral spray stretches diagonally across a white backdrop, beginning with gathered stems in the upper left and tapering gracefully to a soft cascade of greenery in the lower right. The overall impression is one of quiet elegance and abundant life, created from a careful mix of pink, fuchsia, purple, and white blooms, all anchored by layered, textural foliage. Large gerbera daisies in pastel blush and vibrant magenta punctuate the arrangement like gentle exclamation points, their petals radiating outwards in perfect symmetry. Around them, pink roses with neatly rolled petals nestle close, offering a more traditional note of love and respect. Fluffy white flowers, likely carnations or small chrysanthemums, spill between the coloured blooms, providing a cloud-soft contrast that brightens the spray. Delicate white daisy-like flowers with sunny centres weave through the design, echoing the innocent charm of wild flowers seen in local Woolwich parks and green verges. Scattered among the petals, glossy red hypericum berries introduce a subtle richness and add depth to the colour palette. The structure of the piece is shaped by varied greenery: broad, shiny dark leaves give weight and presence, while the fine fronds of fern and the rounded, silvery eucalyptus leaves bring movement and a hint of gentle fragrance. Long, narrow palm leaves extend out from the lower right, reinforcing the sense of flow and direction, as though the flowers are bowing in a final, respectful gesture. Created in the style of an experienced local florist accustomed to arranging tributes for churches and crematoriums around Woolwich, this spray feels deeply personal, designed to honour a loved one with grace, tenderness, and enduring warmth.
LIGHT IN YOUR HONOUR SPRAY
£75.00
ETERNAL REST SPRAY
ETERNAL REST SPRAY
£70.00
An elegant spray of approximately twenty-four yellow roses is spread across a pure white background, captured in a way that highlights both their freshness and quiet grace. Each rose is slightly different: some are still tightly wrapped, with their petals forming neat spirals, while others are beginning to unfurl, revealing soft, buttery layers that deepen into a rich golden heart. The blossoms cluster together in a loose, natural fan, as though a Woolwich florist has just laid them down on the workbench after conditioning them for a sympathy bouquet. Around the blooms, dark emerald leaves with faintly lighter edges peek through, their matte texture contrasting gently with the velvety sheen of the petals. The slender stems stretch away in one direction, pale green and freshly cut, suggesting these roses have only just come in from a cool flower room, ready to be arranged for a thoughtful delivery across Woolwich, Plumstead, or Charlton. The white background removes all distraction, so the eye is drawn only to the soft radiance of the yellow and the calm rhythm of the foliage. There is a quiet comfort in the way the blooms nestle close, as if offering a shared, gentle embrace. This image feels particularly suited to moments of remembrance or condolence, where you might want to send a message that speaks of gratitude, cherished memories, and the promise of light after sorrow. It evokes the sense of placing a tender floral tribute at a service or family home near the Woolwich Arsenal, offering solace without overwhelming emotion.
