FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY BASKET
£60.00
A refined funeral flower basket sits centered against a clean white backdrop, presented in an off-white woven container with a strong, curved handle that rises like a protective arch above the blooms. Inside, the flowers are arranged in a rounded, mounded shape, creating a sense of fullness and gentle embrace. A large, creamy white rose anchors the composition, its layered petals opening in a soft spiral that naturally draws the gaze. Flanking it are rich purple calla lilies, their smooth, flute-like forms leaning slightly forward as though in a quiet bow of respect. Around them, delicate clematis blossoms in pale lilac and lavender tones stretch their star-shaped petals, adding a light, airy touch that softens the deeper colours. Here and there, clusters of bright yellow, freesia-style or alstroemeria-like flowers introduce a mild brightness, a reminder of light even in times of loss. A single vivid magenta gerbera daisy emerges on the right side, its fine, radiating petals offering a heartfelt note of individuality, much like the unique stories remembered at local Mottingham funerals and services held near the village centre or close to Mottingham station. Abundant green foliage, glossy and fresh, surrounds and supports every bloom, from broad, rounded leaves to more delicate stems that add movement and depth. The basket casts a soft, natural shadow on the white surface, grounding the design and enhancing the sense of realism. Overall, this arrangement feels calm, respectful, and tender, a thoughtful floral gesture for expressing sympathy, offering condolences, or decorating a memorial table with understated beauty.
TREASURED MOMENTS BASKET
£65.00
In this detailed funeral flower basket, photographed against a pure white backdrop, the mood is one of quiet dignity and gentle consolation. A light cream wicker basket with an arched handle holds a carefully composed arrangement of premium blooms, arranged by an experienced Mottingham florist who understands the sensitivity of farewell occasions. At the heart of the display, large ivory and cream roses open fully, their layered petals soft and velvety, evoking purity and grace. Threaded around them are delicate, star-shaped clematis in misty lavender tones, each with a bright yellow-green centre that adds a subtle glow, like a candle in the distance. Scattered through the design are small trumpet-shaped flowers reminiscent of freesia, in white and pale lemon hues, some open, some still tightly furled, suggesting both remembrance and the continuation of life. Deep green foliage provides a strong, comforting base, with glossy leaves and fine sprigs framing the blooms and enhancing the pastel shades. The arrangement feels balanced and rounded, with no harsh edges, as though shaped to cradle a family's grief with kindness. You can imagine this basket placed by the coffin in a local Mottingham church, or delivered to a home near Mottingham Village as a thoughtful condolence gift. The harmony of texture, scent, and colour creates a soothing presence, suitable for funerals, memorials, and sympathy tributes, offering a quiet message of peace and enduring love when words are difficult to find.
PEACE & PURITY BASKET
£65.00
An elegant funeral basket arrangement is captured here in clear, even light, every petal and leaf standing out against a plain white backdrop. The flowers rise from a shallow, pale wooden basket with gently curved sides, small feet and a strong, arched handle that frames the display without overshadowing it. Inside, creamy white roses sit at the heart of the design, their open blooms layered with understated grace, offering a feeling of peace and reverence. They are embraced by deep red carnations whose frilled petals build rich texture and emotional warmth, the crimson tones speaking quietly of love, devotion and long-held memories. Nestled between these are soft pink and bi-coloured carnations, some with white petals delicately edged in rosy red, adding nuance and tenderness to the colour story. Small white, bell-shaped flowers, reminiscent of freesias, thread between the larger blooms, their buds and open florets adding lightness and a hint of fragrance you can almost imagine. A bed of dark, glossy greenery anchors the basket, with broad leaves giving structure and feathery fern-like fronds creating a soft, cloud-like outline around the dome of flowers. The arrangement is full and rounded, slightly overflowing the basket's rim, like an armful of thoughts and prayers offered all at once. Designed with the quiet corners of Mottingham's churches and crematorium chapels in mind, this piece feels appropriate for a service, wake or condolence delivery to families near Mottingham Station, The Tarn or surrounding residential streets. It conveys sympathy, support and respect through a classic pairing of red and white blooms.
REMEMBRANCE BASKET
£60.00
Set against a clean white background, this lush, rounded bouquet looks as though it has been freshly lifted from a Mottingham kitchen table on a bright morning, every flower carefully placed by an experienced local florist. The overall shape is a soft, full dome, created by layers of garden roses in romantic pastel tones-light pink, warm yellow, and delicate peach-each bloom at a slightly different stage. Some roses are fully open, showing off their many swirling petals, while others are more modest, still in that half-open phase that suggests new beginnings. Threading between them are airy, star-like clematis flowers in white and pale lavender, their open petals and sunny yellow centres adding a touch of relaxed, cottage-garden charm. Punctuating the softness, several spiky blue eryngium, or sea holly, rise up like small metallic sculptures, their cool, steely blue shades giving structure and contrast. Nestled deeper in the bouquet, rich purple lisianthus bring a sense of depth and elegance, some buds tightly furled, others gently unfolding with a velvety sheen. Bright red hypericum berries dot the arrangement like tiny lanterns, their smooth, round forms catching the light and injecting cheerful colour. All of this is supported by a generous spread of green foliage-broad glossy leaves, delicate feathery fronds, and a few darker, wine-toned accents that add complexity and grounding. The lighting is bright and even, emphasising freshness and natural texture, making the bouquet feel like a moment of celebration ready to be delivered to a doorstep near Mottingham, perhaps for a birthday tea, a quiet anniversary dinner, or a thoughtful gesture to lift someone's spirits after a long week.

This image shows a sumptuous, dome-shaped bouquet resting against a pure white background, the kind of luxurious design you might ask a Mottingham florist to create for a truly memorable moment. The eye is first drawn to the dramatic fuchsia Oriental lilies at the centre, their wide-open petals shaded from rich magenta at the throat to a lighter pink at the edges, sprinkled with darker freckles and framing bright golden stamens. Around these statement blooms, graceful white lilies curve outward, some fully opened in a star-like display, others still enclosed in slender green buds that promise future blossoms and a lingering lily fragrance. Interlaced with the lilies are soft blush pink roses and creamy ivory roses, their velvety petals unfolding in gentle spirals, some just beginning to open, others fully blossomed in lush, romantic layers. Fine sprays of white baby's breath thread through every gap, giving the bouquet a cloud-soft halo and creating a delicate contrast with the larger, more sculptural flowers. Small glimpses of fresh green foliage and stems anchor the arrangement, adding depth and a garden-fresh feel, as if the flowers had been gathered from a tended plot near Kimmeridge Road or close to Mottingham's green open spaces. The bright, even lighting highlights every curve, edge, and texture, from the satin sheen of the rose petals to the slightly ruffled edges of the lilies. This bouquet feels like a celebration of love and joy-a design perfectly suited to Mottingham weddings, milestone birthdays, or romantic surprises delivered to doorsteps across SE9, where heartfelt emotion is expressed through every carefully chosen stem.
