This large, expertly constructed cross is a study in refined sympathy: the main field is densely cloaked in clean white chrysanthemum heads, each bloom closely set so the surface reads like a soft, pillowy canvas. A wide, ruffled purple satin ribbon traces the outer edge, its deep hue and subtle sheen forming a composed frame that elevates the white expanse. On the vertical arm the simple, heartfelt inscription "MUM" is formed in rich purple blooms-small eustoma or compact chrysanthemums-standing out against the white with clear, loving intent. The centre cluster at the crossroads of the arms is deliberately lush: inky violet roses with tightly held petals sit with lighter lavender lisianthus, their frilled edges offering delicate contrast, while variegated green foliage-perhaps pittosporum or eucalyptus with cream-edged leaves-introduces texture and a touch of woodland freshness. Small green berries peek through the central spray, adding an earthy, tactile accent. The colour story balances solemnity and tenderness, from snow-white chrysanthemum purity to layered purples that suggest mourning, dignity, and remembrance. Light falls softly across the arrangement, emphasizing petal textures and the satin gleam of the ribbon without dramatic shadow, so the tribute reads calm and composed. Suitable for funerals, memorial services, or a graveside tribute, this cross would be carried or delivered to chapels or cemeteries serving South Woodford, Wanstead and Woodford Green, offering families a crafted expression of enduring love and respect.

A tender, cross-shaped funeral tribute composed of dense, pillowy white chrysanthemums sits against a clean white backdrop, every floret arranged to create a seamless, cloud-like surface that reads of purity and calm. Framing the entire perimeter is a ruffled, deep purple satin ribbon-its soft sheen catching studio light and lending a dignified, ceremonial edge that gently separates the white field from the surrounding space. Down the vertical arm the letters "MUM" are carefully spelled in rich purple flower heads, each letter formed from smaller blooms-likely eustoma or compact spray chrysanthemums-so the name stands out clearly and lovingly against the white base. At the junction of the arms a lush central spray anchors the design: velvet deep-violet roses mingle with pale lavender lisianthus or eustoma, their ruffled petals folding into one another, while variegated green foliage with lighter margins adds contrast and subtle movement. Tiny green berries or seed pods are tucked into the cluster, giving a quiet tactile texture beneath the blooms. The overall palette-stark white softened by layers of purple from lavender to nearly black violet-evokes reverence, gentle sorrow, and dignity; the pieces are dense to the touch yet visually soft, like a comforting embrace. The scent is muted, a faint powder of fresh chrysanthemums and roses rather than anything overpowering, intended for a wake or graveside. As a local florist I imagine this arranged for a family service in South Woodford or delivered to nearby chapels, a composed, classic statement of remembrance that honours a mother with restraint and deep affection.

    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.
