A large, meticulously prepared Christian cross made from countless white chrysanthemum blooms-each petal layered to produce an even, cushiony surface that suggests calm and purity. The entire perimeter is outlined with a ruffled purple satin ribbon, its pleats catching light and creating a sculpted border that enhances the cross's silhouette. Nestled at the centre where the arms meet is a lush, multi-tonal spray: deep violet roses provide depth and richness while pale lavender lisianthus (eustoma) give a lighter, ruffled texture; together they create a gentle ombré from dark to light. Variegated foliage - leaves rimmed in lighter green with darker centres - weaves through the central cluster, and small round green berries peek out, adding tactile contrast and a hint of garden freshness. Running down the vertical arm, the word MUM is carefully formed from compact purple flower heads, the letters proportioned to read clearly against the white chrysanthemum field without overpowering the overall harmony. The colour story of pristine white and multiple purple tones evokes dignity and quiet sorrow, while the satin ribbon and floral lettering add a personalised touch of warmth. This arrangement is often requested for funeral services across Wimbledon, from small chapel gatherings near Worple Road to larger ceremonies at local churches, and it sits beautifully at the front of a service or at the graveside. The finished piece has a subtle, cool fragrance and a tactile density that invites touch and offers solace - a tender, crafted tribute to a beloved mother.

A quietly reverent cross-shaped tribute crafted entirely from soft, snow-white chrysanthemum heads, each bloom packed tightly to form a pillowy, seamless surface that reads as purity in texture. The cross sits against a clean white backdrop, so the delicate gradations of purple in the central spray and edging ribbon take on particular clarity. At the heart, a lush cluster of deep violet roses and paler lavender lisianthus (eustoma) gathers like a small garden - ruffled petals, velvety rose buds and the gentle curl of lisianthus creating a layered, calming centrepoint. Variegated foliage, its leaves edged pale and tinged with darker centres, threads through the cluster to give relief and natural depth; tiny green berries are tucked between blooms, offering soft pops of colour and tactile contrast. Down the vertical shaft of the cross, the word MUM is spelled in compact purple flower heads - smaller spray chrysanthemums or eustoma - the letters sculpted with care so they sit clearly against the white chrysanthemum field. A ruffled, satin purple ribbon traces the outer edge of the cross, its sheen catching the light and framing the composition with solemn grace. The overall palette - pristine white with notes of lavender to deep violet - conveys a hush of dignity and consolation, scented faintly with a fresh, powdery floral note reminiscent of a spring morning after rain. As a local florist I often prepare this design for services around Wimbledon Common and at churches in Wimbledon Village; it is intended to speak of love, memory and the gentle steadiness of farewell, providing a visual and tactile focus for mourning and 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.
