A large, carefully constructed memorial cross formed from a dense carpet of white chrysanthemum heads, each bloom tucked so the surface reads as soft and consoling. The cross is edged with a ruffled band of purple satin ribbon that moves the eye around the shape and lends a stately contrast between the crisp white centre and the cool violet border. Down the vertical beam the name "MUM" is spelled in clearly defined purple blooms - likely eustoma or small spray chrysanthemums - their colour ranging from mid-purple to deep violet so the letters stand out firmly against the white background. The focal point at the juncture of the arms is a lush spray of flowers: velvety deep violet roses paired with pale lavender lisianthus/eustoma, punctuated by variegated foliage with pale green margins and richer centres, and dotted with small green berries for texture. The arrangement sits on a plain white ground so the tonal shift from white to purple reads with solemn clarity and the floral workmanship shows through. A faint, fresh scent and the tactile density of the petals suggest both permanence and tenderness. I often present this style of tribute for families in Mottingham and neighbouring communities when a classic, personal memorial is requested - a composition intended to honour a loved one with dignity and to offer comfort at a time of farewell.

A tender, cross-shaped funeral tribute crafted entirely from densely packed white chrysanthemum heads, each floret placed to form a soft, pillowy surface that reads as quiet purity and calm. The cross sits against a crisp white background so the textures - the downy chrysanthemum petals, the ruffled edge of satin, the glossy variegated leaves - are easy to imagine. Around the perimeter a ruffled purple satin ribbon is woven with careful pleats, a cool, dignified frame in shades from pale lilac to deep violet. Down the vertical arm the letters "MUM" are spelled in smaller, rich purple blooms - tight little eustoma or spray chrysanthemums - their colour deliberately saturated against the white field to make the tribute personal and unmistakable. At the crossroads of the arms a compact, lush spray gathers attention: deep violet roses with velvety petals, lighter lavender lisianthus/eustoma with ruffled throats, and sprigs of variegated greenery whose pale margins and darker centres create visual depth. Tiny green berries and slender stems peek through the cluster, adding tactile contrast to the softness of the blooms. The whole piece carries a faint, powdery floral scent and an atmosphere of respectful calm, appropriate for a funeral, memorial or graveside service. As a florist who often prepares tributes for services at local churches and cemeteries around Mottingham and nearby Chislehurst, I arrange every stem so the cross reads clearly from a distance yet rewards close viewing with its detailed handwork and heartfelt message of remembrance.

    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.
