An elegant and earnest sympathy cross, photographed on a clean white field so each detail reads plainly: the body of the cross is entirely covered in tightly packed white chrysanthemum blooms, creating a soft, pillowy surface that suggests purity and repose. Around the perimeter a rich purple satin ribbon is pleated and secured, its ruffled edge acting as a dignified border that picks up the deeper tones used elsewhere. At the intersection of the arms a generous central spray anchors the design - deep violet roses with polished, velvety petals sit alongside softer lavender lisianthus (eustoma), and sprigs of variegated green foliage with pale rims give structure and a cool, natural counterpoint. Scattered among the foliage are small green berries that add tiny, rounded texture points. Along the vertical shaft the letters MUM have been carefully formed in purple blooms, slightly raised over the white chrysanthemum background so the sentiment reads immediately and tenderly. The overall colour story - from clean white to pale lavender to saturated violet - communicates a balance of peace, dignity, and mourning; the fragrance is faintly floral and powdery, like a sheltered spring garden. The lighting reveals the tactile contrasts: the downy chrysanthemum base, the satin ribbon's sheen, the rose petals' velvet, and the crisp leaf edges. This arrangement suits a funeral chapel or graveside close to Hornsey's local churches and community halls, and is often requested by families who want a classic, heartfelt tribute that reflects respect and enduring love.

A tender, studio-lit memorial cross crafted with quiet reverence: the full form is densely carpeted with pristine white chrysanthemum heads, each petal layered to create a soft, pillowy surface that reads as purity and calm. Along the perimeter, a ruffled satin ribbon in deep purple is worked around the edge, its subtle sheen and pleated texture framing the design like a gentle shawl. Centered at the crossing of the arms is a lush spray of purple-toned blooms - deep violet roses with their velvet, tightly furled petals sit beside lighter lavender lisianthus (eustoma), their ruffled edges catching the light - and small variegated green leaves with pale margins add cool contrast and depth. Tiny round green berries are tucked through the cluster, offering delicate punctuation against the purple and white. Down the vertical arm the letters MUM are formed in unmistakable purple, the floral letters raised slightly from the white chrysanthemum field so they read clearly from a distance and in close view. The overall palette - pristine white, soft lavender, and rich violet - communicates dignity, sorrow, and gentle remembrance; the arrangement smells faintly of fresh petals, a soft, powdery scent like a quiet spring morning. The cross sits against a clean white backdrop which enhances the colour contrasts and makes each texture apparent: the cushiony chrysanthemum base, the satiny ribbon, the velvety rose heads and crisp variegated foliage. As a florist familiar with the Hornsey neighbourhood, I picture this tribute being chosen for a local service at a chapel near Alexandra Park or placed beside a graveside on Hornsey High Street, offering a respectful, heartfelt message of farewell for a much-loved mother.

    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.
