This thoughtful memorial cross is built from a dense carpet of bright white chrysanthemum florets, each small head set closely to create a soft, cushion-like texture that reads as pure and restful. The cross is bordered throughout by a ruffled strip of deep purple satin ribbon, the colour lending a stately contrast and a subtle sheen to the matte whites. Down the shaft, the word MUM is formed in distinct purple flower clusters-likely small, rounded spray chrysanthemums or eustoma-whose richer tones immediately catch the eye and make the tribute intimate and personal. At the junction of the arms a lush, compact bouquet forms the central feature: saturated violet roses with velvety petals, lighter lavender lisianthus and eustoma with ruffled edges, and variegated foliage with pale-edged leaves that add crisp texture and shape. Interspersed green berries offer tiny, rounded highlights that bring a natural, garden note to the arrangement. The colour story-crisp white against a range of purples from soft lavender to deep violet-speaks of respect, purity and mourning, while the overall effect is calm and consoling. In soft daylight, such as an overcast morning common to Hoxton, the satin ribbon and velvety roses catch a low glow, lending the piece a quiet dignity suited to funeral settings, wakes, or graveside services around Old Street and Pitfield Street. As a florist in the area, I would describe the piece by its textures-the cushiony chrysanthemums, the velvet roses, the satin ribbon-and its intent: a reassuring, handcrafted expression of love and remembrance.

A tender, cross-shaped funeral tribute carefully constructed from thousands of small, snow-white chrysanthemum heads, the blooms packed tightly to form a pillowy, cloud-like surface that reads as both pure and consoling. The cross is outlined along its full perimeter with a ruffled satin ribbon in a deep, melancholy purple that gives a satin sheen and a soft textural edge to the crisp white field of petals. Running down the vertical arm, the personal name MUM is formed in clearly defined letters made from rich purple flower heads-likely spray chrysanthemums or eustoma-so the message rises gently out of the white base. At the crossing of the arms, a lush central spray anchors the design: tightly rosetted deep violet roses sit beside paler lavender lisianthus and delicate eustoma, the layered petals creating a contrast of velvet and ruffle. Variegated green foliage-with lighter margins and darker centres-threads through the cluster, while a few small green berries add a subtle, rounded texture. The overall palette of pristine white and graduated purples, from smoky lavender to near-ebony violet, reads as reverent and dignified; there's a faint, powdery floral scent and a soft, cool light that suggests morning in east London, a calmness like a quiet chapel near Hoxton Square. As a local florist describing this for someone who cannot see it, I would emphasise the tactile softness of the chrysanthemums, the satin whisper of the purple ribbon, and the way the purple letters and central roses draw the eye upward in a gentle, intimate gesture 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.
