Summer Collection
I arranged this bouquet to strike a friendly balance between modern energy and classic poise - a trait many customers in Mottingham ask for when choosing a gift. The portrait shows several bold magenta Gerbera daisies up front, their flat, layered petals and darker central discs beaming optimism. Around them I tucked creamy white roses whose layered petals unfurl in a soft, velvety spiral, offering calm and romance beside the Gerberas' brightness. To add depth and a hint of the exotic I scattered clusters of deep purple Alstroemeria, whose trumpet-like blooms are subtly speckled, creating tiny points of pattern that catch the eye. Rich green foliage - a mix of broad glossy leaves and narrower, sword-like fronds - frames every flower, giving structure, shadow and textural contrast that makes the bouquet feel full and professionally finished. The composition sits on a pure white background with a whisper of a clear glass vase at the base, the studio light highlighting petal edges and leaf veins so the colours seem to pulse. Smell and texture matter here too: the cool, green scent of fresh stems and the soft powder of rose petals suggest care and immediacy. This style is often chosen by Mottingham residents wanting something uplifting for a friend, a contemporary table centrepiece, or a warm Mother's Day gift delivered to nearby Eltham or Chislehurst - it's bright, well-balanced and reliably fresh.
MESMERIZING HARMONY
£49.00
As I arrange these flowers in our Mottingham shop, I'm inspired by the gentle dance between pale pink roses and delicate gerbera daisies, each bloom reminiscent of early blossoms along Sidcup Road. Soft blush tones blend seamlessly-like a watercolour wash-flushed with the freshness of dew-kissed greenery. Threads of vibrant purple statice weave through, adding bursts of cheerful energy and a hint of wild meadow charm. Clear glass cradles the bouquet, allowing stems to be seen as if freshly gathered from a local park after morning rain. The composition radiates a pure, luminous quality, reminiscent of a quiet spring dawn in Mottingham, bringing a sense of optimism and warmth. It's perfect for sending well wishes for a friend recovering near Mottingham Station or brightening the heart of a loved one celebrating in their kitchen on West Park. Every flower is selected and positioned with an eye for balance, creating an arrangement that feels as handcrafted and genuine as the community it represents. This bouquet is a testament to the careful, joyful craft practiced daily at Mottingham Florist.
PINK DAZE
£49.00
A joyful arrangement of multicoloured Gerbera daisies stands resplendent in a clear, cylindrical glass vase, expertly crafted by florists in the heart of Mottingham. The bouquet's palette - sunny yellow, zesty orange, and deep pink fuchsia - feels both energizing and harmonious, each blossom's dark, velvety center drawing the eye and accentuating the vibrancy of its petals. Gentle sprays of rich green foliage provide contrast and a sense of abundant freshness, reminiscent of Mottingham's quiet parks and leafy lanes. The flowers are artfully wrapped with care: the inner shell of sheen-flecked, crinkly cellophane guards each delicate blossom, while the outer layer of soft, brown kraft paper imparts a down-to-earth grace, inviting touch and admiration. Peeking through the transparent vase, the stems are neatly bound, bathed in fresh water, and tied with a length of rustic twine. From this twine hangs a small white tag featuring a stylized red rose motif beside an inscription partly seen, suggesting the creation's hand-tied elegance and professional finish. Sunlight glimmers across every surface of the bouquet, highlighting its pristine freshness, and conjuring feelings of hope and celebration. Whether poised on a breakfast table in a home off Court Farm Road, or gracing the counter of a local shop, this arrangement brings with it the promise of happiness and shared moments. Ideal for marking heartfelt milestones or sending a spontaneous token of cheer, this is a true testament to Mottingham's vibrant flower delivery tradition.
SUNNY GARDEN
£49.00
A vivid and opulent hand-tied bouquet photographed on a crisp white field, the work of an experienced local florist familiar with Mottingham's warm community. This dense, rounded arrangement layers a joyful spectrum of roses: bright yellow blossoms that feel like a shaft of sun, creamy ivory roses that calm the palette, and a rich assortment of pinks ranging from feather-soft blush to electrifying fuchsia and delicate bicoloured pink-and-white varieties. Deeper burgundy and classic red roses are clustered like small jewel-tones to anchor the composition, while fully opened hybrid teas flaunt their velvet petals beside smaller spray roses and tight, promising buds for texture and botanical movement. Glossy, dark green foliage - the kind of ruscus or salal we source locally near Mottingham Station and Sidcup Road - weaves through the blooms, accentuating the colours and giving a fresh, garden-cut feel. The stems are neatly gathered and finished with a wide, bright red satin ribbon tied into an elegant bow with long tails; tucked into the ribbon is a white tag printed with a stylised logo and the greeting "Happy Holidays," lending a personal, seasonal note. Under soft, diffused lighting the petals show dewy highlights and subtle veining; the overall scent suggests classic rose perfume with a light citrus lift. Thoughtfully composed for celebrations, anniversaries, or a seasonal surprise, this bouquet is the kind of fresh, spirited gift Mottingham Florist prepares for same-day delivery across Mottingham, Chislehurst, and neighbouring Eltham.
CRAZY IN LOVE
£69.00
An elegantly composed bouquet of deep pink roses and poised white lily buds rests in a simple glass vase, captured against a pristine white background to emphasise colour and form. At its heart, several fully open roses reveal layers of velvety petals in rich fuchsia and soft blush tones, their rounded silhouettes offering a tactile richness that suggests a perfume both sweet and nostalgic. Interwoven with the roses are tall, unopened white lilies - long, tapered buds with pale green tips - a quiet promise of blooms to come and an extended presence in the home. Lush greenery envelops the arrangement, from glossy, broad leaves to lighter, fern-like sprigs, building volume and lending a verdant counterpoint that makes the pinks and whites sing. Small notes of reddish-brown accent foliage thread through the greens, adding shadow and texture so the bouquet reads as three-dimensional rather than flat. The clear vase, gently flared at the rim, shows crisp water and neatly trimmed stems, signalling careful craftsmanship and freshness. The lighting is clean and bright, reflecting a florist's studio window on a calm morning in Mottingham, with echoes of walks past Scadbury Park and quick deliveries made along Mottingham Lane. As a local florist I picture this arrangement brightening a birthday table, softening an anniversary dinner, or arriving as a heartfelt 'thank you' to a neighbour; Mottingham Florist prepares and offers it for same-day local delivery where possible, wrapped with the care of a neighbourhood trade.
CRUSH ON YOU
£65.00
This Mottingham-inspired bouquet evokes the gentle warmth of shared moments and new beginnings. As if caught in the first light streaming through local park windows, several exquisitely soft lavender roses bloom at the heart of the arrangement, each petal arranged with an eye for detail and delicacy. Around them, bold fuchsia Gerbera daisies with dramatic, dark centers provide a cheerful contrast, their open faces reminiscent of smiles at the Mottingham Community Market. Layered between these larger blooms, plum-toned chrysanthemums and magenta daisy-like flowers add intricate texture and depth, some revealing a surprise of yellow-green at their centers like hidden woodland treasures. Generous sprigs of baby's breath are woven throughout the design, their tangle of white blossoms creating a floating, cloudlike softness that lifts the whole bouquet. The dark green foliage at the base brings a wild, fresh vibrancy-each leaf carefully placed as if plucked from the hedgerows near Marvels Lane. All are cradled within a clear, crackle-glazed vase, tied with rustic raffia and finished with a simple white gift tag. This bouquet captures the spirit of thoughtful Mottingham gifting, suitable for every milestone or quiet gesture, and offers a fragrant reminder of a local florist's personal touch and masterful artistry.
DAY BRIGHTENER
£55.00
DEVOTION
DEVOTION
£57.00
This densely packed, hand-tied rose bouquet is photographed on a pure white background so every petal and leaf is visible-an expert craft from Mottingham Florist for the Mottingham community. The composition centres on large, classic roses in soft blush pink and creamy ivory, some petals unfurled to reveal silky textures while others remain in elegant bud form. Interspersed are vivid deep fuchsia roses that add lively punctuation, alongside a few delicate lavender blooms that bring a cool, fragrant contrast. Sprays of smaller white-and-pale-yellow spray roses nestle between the majors, creating pockets of fine texture and gentle brightness. Dark glossy foliage-appearing to be ruscus or salal-threads through the blooms, its rich green tones grounding the palette and offering a fresh, botanical frame. The stems are bound into a neat, sturdy hand-tie and finished with a wide, light-pink satin ribbon tied into a substantial bow whose lustrous tails fall gracefully beneath the bunch. Under soft, studio-style light the bouquet's velvety petals, the faint rosy scent, and the glossy leaf surfaces read clearly against the white backdrop. As a florist's arrangement it balances romance and celebration, suited to birthdays, anniversaries, or a special delivery across Mottingham, near Mottingham Station, Chislehurst Common and surrounding Bromley neighbourhoods.
GLAMOUR
£67.00
The arrangement centres on one fully open creamy-white Oriental lily, its smooth petals unfurling to show a pale yellow stamen and a hint of green at the core, a calm focal point among lively elements. Surrounding this bloom, clusters of lime-green and buttery-yellow lily buds suggest unfolding time and gentle movement, their compact forms adding volume without stealing the lily's quiet elegance. Interspersed throughout are small, velvety red roses and rosebuds-deep, passionate accents that lift the palette and lend a classic note of romance. The florist's touch is evident in the layering of dark, broad leaves that give depth and the feathery, arching palm fronds in an emerald hue that cascade like a soft curtain, introducing rhythm and direction. Silver-green eucalyptus sprigs, their rounded leaves satin-smooth, weave cool highlights through the greenery. The bouquet is held in a plain cylindrical clear glass vase; through the transparent sides you can see the fresh green stems submerged in clear water, a sign of careful preparation and freshness. Against a clean white backdrop, the colours are crisp and the textures distinct-the waxy lilies, the plush rosepetals, the glossy foliage, and the fine palm fronds. Imagine this arranged by Mottingham Florist for delivery around Mottingham Lane or placed as a centrepiece on a mantel near the village high street: it communicates love, purity, and composed celebration. The scent would be luminous and slightly sweet, the lilies' powdery notes mingling with the roses' richer perfume, making it fitting for anniversaries, congratulations, or a refined romantic gesture.
INSPIRATION
£65.00
This image presents a lush, dome-shaped bouquet of approximately twenty-four pink roses arranged in a clear glass vase, photographed against a clean white backdrop so every nuance is visible. The roses display a delicate ombré: deeper magenta or fuchsia sits at the tight, spiralled centres and eases outward into soft blush pink, with occasional creamy white highlights at the edges of outer petals. The blooms are arranged tightly together to create a dense, rounded silhouette; between and beneath them, rich green foliage appears-smooth, slightly glossy leaves that frame and lift the roses. The transparent vase narrows slightly at the waist, allowing a clear view of the straight, trimmed stems submerged in water, which contributes an immediate impression of freshness. Bright, even lighting reveals the satiny texture of each petal and the subtle inner shadowing of the rose spirals. Close your senses to imagine the gentle, floral scent-sweet and slightly fruity-that typically accompanies garden roses from early summer bouquets prepared here in Mottingham. As a local florist writing from experience at Mottingham Florist, I see this as a classic romantic arrangement suited to anniversaries, birthdays, or Mother's Day; it reads equally well as a sophisticated centrepiece for a small dining table or a heartfelt gift delivered around Mottingham Village and neighbouring Chislehurst. The image is composed to celebrate both the technical craft of arranging and the emotional gesture of giving: soft, tactile petals, crisp greenery, and the cool clarity of glass and water that together create a sense of care and quiet celebration.
LOVE IN THE AIR
£64.00
A spectacular cluster of pink oriental lilies, composed to feel both lush and airy, fills a clear glass vase placed on a stark white studio surface; the arrangement reads like a portrait of bloom and will translate beautifully into a Mottingham living room or bedside display. Each blossom carries broad, six-petalled faces in a rich spectrum of fuchsia and rosy pink, edges sometimes paling to soft blush while the centre drops into a glowing chartreuse-yellow throat that graduates to cream. The interior anatomy is on display: slender filaments topped by deep burgundy anthers heavily dusted with pollen, the tactile detail a reminder of freshness and recent harvest. Scattered among those open flowers are many tapered buds-some slim and pale, others rounded and deepening to magenta with faint green tips-so the bouquet promises continued opening over several days. The dark green, glossy leaves form a verdant cradle around the stems, their lance-like shapes and firm texture providing contrast and support to the softer petals. The transparent vase reveals neat, trimmed stems submerged in clean water, a small but telling sign of careful floral technique. Under soft, controlled lighting the petals show a gentle sheen, their waxy texture almost like the skin of ripe fruit, and the whole image exudes a quiet, celebratory fragrance. As a local atelier I know from arranging deliveries around Mottingham and nearby Eltham that this style works well for birthdays, Mother's Day, or as a thoughtful thank-you-an arrangement that captures both the visual drama of the lilies and the friendly, attentive touch of Mottingham Florist.
VIBRANT DELIGHT
£60.00
Imagine lifting this radiant bouquet fresh from Mottingham Florist, where every petal tells a story of care and tradition familiar to those who stroll by the local shops on Court Farm Road. Crimson chrysanthemums and passionate red roses gather in a vibrant swirl, cradling mellow apricot and salmon-hued roses that glow like the evening light over Chinbrook Meadows. Wisps of gypsophila float between the richer blooms, their white petals like miniature clouds or the memory of springtime festivities beneath the open Mottingham sky. Glossy, verdant foliage forms a lush backdrop, the scent of green leaves mingling with the subtle sweetness of roses-an aroma as invigorating as stepping outside after rain. Resting in a minimalist glass vase, thick stems visible and immersed in clear water, the arrangement feels refreshingly open and honest, echoing the down-to-earth spirit of the area. Its cascading forms move outward and upward, yet gather tightly at the centre, conveying both togetherness and joyful celebration. This bouquet is the embodiment of thoughtful artistry; every stem and blossom considered, expertly placed to usher in warmth and happiness. Whether set as a stunning centrepiece for a Mottingham birthday dinner or as an intimate gesture of love, its presence stirs emotions with the effortless grace of a bouquet hand-crafted for the local community.
