BASKETS / POSIES
A carefully balanced basket arrangement that feels like a quiet morning on George Lane: large, immaculate white Gerbera daisies with dark, almost black centres form a luminous cluster at the heart of the display, their smooth petals radiating a clear, pure tone. Surrounding them are soft blush-pink carnations with densely layered, ruffled petals that lend a plush, romantic softness to the bouquet. Interspersed throughout are smaller white and pale yellow daisy-type flowers-spray chrysanthemums or asters-that fill gaps with delicate volume and a bright, hopeful note. Scattered sparingly for contrast are tiny pale blue or lavender accent blooms, their star-shaped forms adding a shy pop of cool colour against the warmer pastels. The foliage is abundant and texturally rich: rounded silver-green eucalyptus leaves whisper a gentle scent, while glossy ruscus branches cascade outward from the left side of the basket, creating an elegant asymmetry. Additional green leaves complete the lush foundation, making the arrangement feel generous and freshly gathered. The flowers sit in a light, woven wooden basket with a curved brown handle that frames the composition and gives it a handcrafted character. Soft, even lighting highlights each petal edge and the sheen of leaves, evoking the fresh-picked clarity of early daylight. As a piece suited for sympathy, a thoughtful anniversary, or a calm celebration, this basket would be appropriate for delivery across South Woodford and nearby Woodford Green; Florist South Woodford crafts similar arrangements with that neighbourhood attention to seasonal freshness and gentle presentation.
ALWAYS HERE FOR YOU BASKET
£50.00
FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY BASKET
£60.00
The photograph shows a thoughtfully arranged funeral flower basket positioned against a pure white background, the simplicity of the setting highlighting the nuance and care within the design. The basket is woven in a light, creamy colour, its high, arched handle framing a lush mix of blooms that seem to gently rise and fall in natural waves. At the heart of the display, a single creamy white rose opens in a tight spiral, its velvety petals catching soft, even light and drawing the eye to its serene centre. Around it, deep purple calla lilies curve in elegant trumpets, their rich, saturated tones creating a dignified contrast that adds depth and solemn beauty. Interspersed among these are delicate lilac and lavender clematis-like flowers, each with slender, star-shaped petals and tiny yellow centres that lend a cloud-like softness to the composition. Playing between the purples and whites are clusters of yellow and white blossoms reminiscent of freesia or alstroemeria, their small, bell-shaped flowers bringing gentle brightness and a sense of quiet hope. On the right-hand side, partially framed by greenery, a vivid magenta gerbera-style bloom extends its fine petals outward in a ring of intense colour, like a joyful memory shining through the sadness. The entire arrangement is cushioned and expanded by abundant foliage: glossy, broad dark-green leaves provide structure, while lighter green sprigs and tendrils soften the silhouette and fill out the basket. A subtle shadow beneath the basket adds depth, grounding the image firmly on the white surface. It feels like a personal, hand-crafted tribute from a local South Woodford florist, suitable for delivery to services around George Lane or nearby Wanstead, expressing remembrance, support, and gentle consolation.
TREASURED MOMENTS BASKET
£65.00
A serene funeral flower arrangement is displayed in a light wicker basket, set against a smooth white background that allows every petal and leaf to stand out. The basket itself is softly rectangular or oval, with a pale, natural finish and a slender handle that curves in a gentle arch over the centre, lending a sense of shelter and intimacy. Inside, the flowers are arranged in a rounded, abundant shape, carefully layered to create both fullness and breathing space. At the centre are several large, fully opened cream and white roses, their velvety petals unfurling in perfect spirals that speak of respect, remembrance, and enduring love. Interspersed among these classic blooms are star-shaped clematis in delicate shades of lavender and periwinkle, each flower marked by a striking yellow-green centre, adding a hint of soft colour that brings to mind the subtle evening light over South Woodford and the quiet pathways around Roding Valley Park. Smaller white and pale yellow blossoms, reminiscent of freesias and ruffled lisianthus, nestle throughout the design, some tightly closed, others beginning to open, adding gentle fragrance and texture. A generous collar of deep green foliage with glossy broad leaves and finer shoots surrounds and weaves through the flowers, providing contrast and a feeling of natural abundance. The composition feels composed yet effortless, as though just gathered from a tranquil woodland garden. This basket, lovingly prepared for a funeral or sympathy occasion, would be a thoughtful tribute at a local South Woodford service or as a condolence delivery to a family home, offering quiet comfort and a touch of luminous beauty in a difficult moment.
PEACE & PURITY BASKET
£65.00
This elegant funeral flower basket features a harmonious blend of creamy whites, deep reds, and soft pinks, all gathered into a rounded dome that seems to gently overflow from its pale wooden base. The basket itself is made from light natural wood, arranged in tidy slats with a softly oval shape and four subtle feet lifting it from the surface, while a smooth, arching handle curves overhead, simple and unadorned. Within this frame, fully opened creamy white roses are thoughtfully spaced, their layered, velvety petals creating a sense of calm dignity, well suited to a farewell service in South Woodford. Nestled among them are rich red carnations, their tightly ruffled petals forming plush, velvety clusters of colour that speak of love and devotion. Soft pink and bi-coloured carnations appear between the stronger tones, their white petals delicately edged or streaked with pink and crimson, softening transitions and adding gentle visual interest. Smaller white blooms, likely freesias with their bell-shaped flowers and slender stems, weave through the arrangement, adding a touch of lightness and the imagined whisper of a delicate fragrance, like the scent of flowers drifting across a quiet garden near Churchfields. The entire bouquet is supported by a generous foundation of deep green foliage: broad, glossy leaves provide grounding weight, while feathery, fern-like sprigs rise and trail gracefully, adding airiness and a sense of movement. Set against a pristine white background, every hue and texture stands out clearly, from the cream of the roses to the rich red of the carnations. This classic basket arrangement feels particularly appropriate for funerals and memorials across South Woodford, offering a tender expression of sympathy, respect, and loving remembrance to families gathered to say goodbye.
REMEMBRANCE BASKET
£60.00
Set against a crisp white backdrop, this meticulously crafted domed bouquet appears almost like a living sculpture, each flower deliberately placed to create balance and harmony. The arrangement overflows with garden roses in gentle shades of blush pink, buttery yellow, and soothing peach, their petals swirling in intricate layers. Some roses sit fully open, exposing their plush centers, while others are just beginning to loosen, suggesting a story still unfolding-much like a leisurely afternoon stroll past the cafés and boutiques around South Woodford station. Threaded between these roses are airy clematis blooms in white and pale lavender, their slender petals fanning out around golden centers, bringing a soft, whimsical, garden-inspired feel. Adding a striking textural twist, several stems of blue eryngium, or sea holly, rise proudly from the bouquet. Their metallic blue-grey, spiny heads and bracts lend an architectural, thistle-like structure that contrasts beautifully with the more delicate flowers. Rich purple lisianthus flowers, in various stages from tight bud to open cup, are nestled among the larger blooms, deepening the colour palette and adding a velvety softness. Punctuating the design are clusters of glossy red hypericum berries, their rounded shapes and bright hue delivering playful pops of colour. All of these blooms are supported by an abundance of greenery-broad, rich green leaves, airy feathery sprigs, and subtle touches of darker, burgundy-toned foliage that create depth and shadow. The lighting in the image is bright yet gentle, highlighting the freshness and natural sheen of the petals and leaves. This bouquet feels ideal for celebrations, heartfelt congratulations, or simply sending a luxurious "thinking of you" to someone in South Woodford, capturing both modern style and timeless romance.
ETERNAL MEMORY POSY
£100.00
Seen from above against a clean white backdrop, this perfectly rounded bouquet reads like a study in purity and quiet refinement, a creation carefully assembled in South Woodford's neighbourhood style. Large white lilies command attention at the centre with their wide, trumpet-shaped petals and pale green stamens, each bloom opening like a gentle proclamation of light. Interlaced among them are clusters of cream and ivory roses, most held as tight buds or softly opening cups whose layered, satiny petals offer a tactile softness to the eye. Fine clusters of white Baby's Breath thread through the arrangement, their tiny blossoms creating a frothy, airy veil that both cushions and highlights the larger flowers. Around the edges, fresh green leaves peek through, a painterly contrast that keeps the composition visually grounded. The even, diffused light flattens shadows and enhances the subtle tonal differences between pure white lilies and warmer cream roses, while the combined scent-a faint, elegant mix of rose sweetness and lily freshness-suggests a bouquet suited to a bride, a cherished anniversary, or a dignified sympathy gift. Crafted with the attention of a local workshop on George Lane, Florist South Woodford would describe this as a classic hand-tied design that honours tradition without feeling dated. It's a bouquet that celebrates new beginnings and steady devotion, ideal for ceremonies held near Epping Forest or intimate gatherings on the South Woodford Broadway.
COMPASSION POSY
£90.00
Set against a spotless white backdrop, this lush bouquet appears as if it has just been lifted from the bench at Florist South Woodford, each stem carefully placed to create a rounded, perfectly balanced design. The central focus rests on pristine white lilies, their large, trumpet-shaped blossoms opening in graceful arcs. Some lilies reveal pale green and creamy centres with gently dusted stamens, while green-tipped buds stand tall nearby, hinting at future blooms. Surrounding these lilies, roses in soft blush pink and warm cream tones are tucked in closely, their velvety petals curling in layered spirals that evoke affection and quiet devotion. Interwoven through the roses and white lilies, bold Oriental lilies in shades of vivid fuchsia and deep magenta create moments of drama; their petals are sprinkled with darker speckles, and their bright yellow anthers catch the light, bringing an almost theatrical energy to the arrangement. Fine sprays of baby's breath drift between all the larger flowers, each tiny white blossom adding to a hazy, romantic atmosphere, like soft morning light filtering through trees on a stroll near Churchfields. Bits of glossy green foliage and slim leaves frame the outer edge, keeping the bouquet's silhouette rounded yet natural. The even lighting and pure background showcase every nuance of colour and texture, from the satin-smooth lily petals to the plush, almost cushion-like roses. Altogether, the bouquet radiates joy and sophistication, perfectly suited to South Woodford celebrations-whether it's a wedding, a milestone birthday, or a heartfelt thank-you gift delivered the same day to homes and offices around George Lane and the surrounding streets.
CHERISHED MOMENTS POSY
£90.00
A lush, rounded arrangement of soft pink roses and immaculate white freesia, presented against a pure white backdrop, reads like a small garden gathered into a single, comforting shape. Larger pink roses, their petals unfolding in layered spirals from blush to a warm salmon edge, take centre stage while lighter spray roses fill the gaps with clustered, delicate heads that add texture and a layered sense of depth. Intermittent sprays of pristine white freesia bring a bright, upright contrast; some freesia blooms open like tiny trumpets revealing pale yellow stamens, others remain as slim buds that promise continued freshness. Deep, glossy greens form the supporting canvas-broad leaves that ground the dome-while variegated foliage with cream-edged margins lifts the palette and introduces soft contrast. The arrangement is tightly packed so no stems show, producing a formal, cushion-like silhouette that catches gentle natural light and displays the subtle sheen of petals. The overall mood is one of serene elegance: sympathetic, refined, and quietly fragrant, a fitting choice for a memorial service, a bedside comfort, or a respectful floral tribute. As a local florist serving South Woodford and the surrounding streets from George Lane to Snaresbrook, Florist South Woodford crafts this composition with attention to longevity and scent, and it is available for considered deliveries across the area for moments that call for understated beauty and heartfelt sympathy.
