Funeral Flowers
This image presents a large heart-shaped floral tribute designed for a funeral or memorial, captured from directly above so that every detail of its craftsmanship is visible. The heart's surface is completely blanketed with tiny white spray chrysanthemums, their petals tightly packed to form a luxuriously soft, quilt-like effect that speaks of purity and peaceful rest. The flowers are arranged with precision, creating a smooth, even texture that gently reflects the light and conveys a sense of quiet order, much like the calm of Purley's tree-lined avenues on a still day. Around the very edge of the heart runs a slender strip of emerald green satin ribbon, neatly fixed in place, its subtle shine adding a sophisticated border that crisply outlines the shape against the white background. Draped diagonally across the upper left curve of the heart is a vivid cluster of deep magenta and fuchsia calla lilies. Some of the lilies stand bold and open at the top, showcasing their elegant, funnel-shaped petals and dark centres, while others sweep downward in a gentle arc, hinting at the flow of a final goodbye. Small, delicate white flowers resembling freesias are nestled among the calla lilies, their lighter, airier appearance and imagined soft fragrance offering a tender counterpoint to the strong colour. Lush greenery, including fine fern fronds and the calla's glossy leaves, weaves through the spray to create depth, movement, and a natural, garden-like feel. The tribute feels thoughtfully composed, the kind of arrangement you might see carried into a chapel service in Purley, designed to express deep love, remembrance, and sincere condolences through its careful balance of colour and texture.
ALWAYS REMEMBERED HEART
£95.00
A carefully crafted floral artwork portrays the Union Jack as a rectangular funeral tribute, the entire flag composed from tightly clustered petals that create a plush, almost quilted texture. Saturated blue flowers form the background in each segment of the design, their compact heads fitting neatly together to produce a smooth, velvety field. Set upon this deep blue, the broad red St George's Cross stands out in thick vertical and horizontal bands of crimson blossoms, each flower head contributing to a sense of strength and clarity. Diagonal red lines, evoking St Patrick's Cross, run from corner to corner with precise angles and carefully shaped edges. Brilliant white blooms delineate the diagonal St Andrew's Cross beneath and trace the narrow borders that separate every red line from the blue, maintaining the intricate geometry of the national flag. The arrangement is displayed against a simple white background, free from distractions, so the eye is drawn entirely to the interplay of colour, texture, and symmetry. From the viewpoint of a local Purley florist, this would be a fitting tribute for services held in churches around Foxley Lane or for memorial gatherings near Riddlesdown, especially for families with strong connections to the armed forces or a lifetime of public service. Seen up close, the design invites you to imagine the soft brush of petals and the faint, green, earthy fragrance that lingers among the blossoms. It is a powerful yet gentle symbol, blending British patriotism with the quiet tenderness of fresh flowers at a time of loss.
PEACEFUL DREAMS CUSHION
£150.00
This image shows a tender, cushion-style floral tribute, meticulously arranged into a soft rectangular pillow that suggests comfort and eternal rest. Every inch of the surface is densely covered with blooms, forming a continuous layer of petals in shades of pink, cream, pale yellow, and deep purple, the tones blending as gently as the evening sky over Purley on a still day. At the heart of the design are numerous roses: rich fuchsia heads open widely, displaying velvety spirals of petals, while paler pink and creamy yellow roses nestle around them, creating a soothing interplay of colour and form. Woven among the roses are clusters of royal-purple lisianthus, whose layered, ruffled petals introduce a velvety, almost fabric-like texture, deepening the mood to one of quiet reflection. Between the larger blooms, blush-pink spray roses and tiny lavender-hued filler flowers-likely statice or limonium-add intricate detail, so that no area feels sparse or unfinished. The tribute is further enriched by a generous ring of foliage: rounded, silvery-green eucalyptus leaves arc around and through the flowers, catching subtle highlights, while darker, fine-textured fern-like greens sit slightly in the background, giving depth and a sense of natural abundance. The overall cushion shape is clearly defined, with slightly domed centre and rounded corners that visually soften the design and reinforce its symbolic message of peaceful sleep. Against a clean, white backdrop with a delicate shadow beneath, the arrangement appears composed and serene, as though freshly prepared for delivery to a Purley church or crematorium to convey heartfelt condolences and honour a cherished life with quiet, floral eloquence.
HEARTFELT SORROW CUSHION
£95.00
This image shows a thoughtfully designed funeral flower arrangement spelling out "DAD" in bold, upright letters, ideal for placing by the coffin or at the front of a service in Purley, Coulsdon, or along Brighton Road. All three letters are completely filled with pristine white chrysanthemums or similar small-headed blooms, tightly packed together so that the surface appears smooth, plush, and unbroken. The mass of white petals forms a serene foundation, suggesting innocence and remembrance, while tiny green centres peek through in places, adding a hint of softness and life. Around the outside of every letter, a rich emerald-green ribbon is carefully ruffled, its satin finish catching the light and giving each letter clear definition against the bright white background. On the first "D", a graceful cluster of white freesia blossoms and fresh foliage rests along the upper left curve, their delicate buds and open flowers adding texture and a suggestion of fragrance. The final "D" echoes this with a slightly more compact spray on its upper right edge, creating visual balance. The central "A" is adorned with a more dramatic composition. Two long, arching green stems sweep diagonally from the top of the first "D" down towards the lower right arm of the "A", leading the eye to a focal spray at its base. Here, two deep purple calla lilies, known for their smooth, sculpted trumpets, curl gently among more white freesia and glossy greenery, introducing a rich, contemplative colour that feels fitting for a farewell. Behind the letters, subtle dark bars reveal a sturdy frame designed to keep the tribute upright throughout the service or at the graveside. The overall effect is one of quiet dignity and heartfelt love, capturing the deep bond between a family and their father.
PEACEFUL DAD TRIBUTE
£160.00
This circular sympathy wreath, photographed on a pure white background, is the sort of considered tribute we create at Purley Florist for families in Purley and the surrounding neighbourhoods like Purley Oaks and Kenley. The main volume is built from countless white cushion chrysanthemums, their ruffled petals packed tightly to form a continuous, plush ring that suggests calm, continuity, and peaceful remembrance. Anchoring the arrangement on the upper-left is an artful spray of purple Eustoma (Lisianthus): open, velvety deep-violet blooms, softer lavender flowers and delicate elongated buds on slim stems that add verticality and nuance of tone. Mixed into this purple focal point is a variety of green foliage - broad, sometimes slightly variegated leaves plus slender, fern-like fronds - which provide a cool, living counterpoint and a sense of garden-fresh vitality. Beneath the massed chrysanthemums a delicate band of dark purple mesh or lace peeks out along the inner and outer rims, a subtle trimming that echoes the lisianthus hues and lends a finished, respectful edge to the wreath. The studio's soft, diffuse light creates a gentle shadow under the wreath, giving it three-dimensional clarity against the white field. This design reads as both traditional and quietly contemporary; it conveys sincere condolences and would be suitable for delivery to a church, funeral parlour or memorial service in Purley, with careful handling and local delivery available across the area.
HONORING MEMORY WREATH
£75.00
A dignified circular memorial wreath rests against a clean white backdrop, each detail composed with quiet care by an experienced florist. The main field is tightly composed of pristine white spray chrysanthemums, their many layered petals creating a soft, tactile surface that reads as both full and soothing. Between the outer and inner edges a fine purple netting or ribbon peeks through the white, adding a subtle frame of colour that deepens the overall tone. Toward the upper left, a considered cluster of blooms forms the wreath's emotional centre: three pale, buttery yellow roses open gently, their velvety spirals expressing warmth and remembrance. Surrounding them are delicate clouds of baby's breath (gypsophila) and small, spiky lavender-purple statice that introduce a gentle, complementary hue. Interspersed foliage - broad green leaves with a satiny sheen and slender, fern-like sprigs - gives structure and a living freshness to the tribute. The soft, studio lighting highlights the petal edges and casts a low shadow beneath the wreath, lending it quiet weight and presence on the white surface. Scent is suggested rather than overpowering: a whisper of green leaf and honeyed rose beneath the cool chrysanthemum air. This composition is intended for funeral and memorial services and would be an appropriate expression of sympathy and honour. Locally in Purley, families often request similar wreaths for services at venues along Purley High Street and nearby chapels; this style can be prepared for collection or respectful delivery by Purley Florist to local funeral directors and churches.
IN MY PRAYERS WREATH
£75.00
Large heart-shaped floral tribute set against a pure white background, crafted with the care and precision you would expect from an experienced Purley florist. The heart is densely massed with small white chrysanthemums, arranged so closely that they form a perfectly smooth, cushion-like surface, symbolising purity, peace, and a sense of gentle support in times of grief. At the upper left side of the heart, three luxurious deep red roses are grouped in a focused cluster, their velvety petals unfurling in elegant spirals that naturally draw the eye. Tiny white filler blooms, likely freesias, peek from between the roses, while broad, glossy green leaves and wispy, fern-like greenery radiate outward, adding depth and a hint of movement. From this main spray, slender strands of bright green ornamental grass sweep diagonally across the centre of the heart, leading gracefully towards two single red roses placed lower and slightly to the right, as if linking shared memories from one generation to the next. Encircling the entire heart, a dark green satin ribbon forms a neat, tailored edge, pleated and smoothed to define the silhouette without overpowering the flowers. The composition of pure white, rich crimson, and layered greens feels both traditional and deeply personal, a sympathetic design often chosen by families around Purley, Kenley, and Coulsdon. Whether delivered for a funeral service, crematorium ceremony, or graveside visit, this heart arrangement offers a quiet yet eloquent expression of love, remembrance, and respect for a dearly missed person.
BEAUTIFUL MEMORIES HEART
£95.00
Captured against a spotless white background, this hand-tied bouquet of sapphire-blue and creamy ivory roses has a quiet, dignified presence that would feel at home in any Purley living room or chapel. The roses are arranged in a rounded, symmetrical form, each bloom carefully angled so that the colours are evenly balanced. The blue roses are particularly striking, their velvety petals saturated in deep, jewel-like tones reminiscent of a twilight sky. Subtle variations in shade across each petal add visual interest, with some edges appearing almost indigo and inner petals reflecting a softer, cooler blue. Nestled among them, the cream roses glow with a gentle warmth; their many petals open in soft spirals, creating a sense of tenderness and light. Delicate stems of white gypsophila zigzag through the roses, each tipped with tiny blossoms that lend the design a cloud-like softness, breaking up the solid blocks of colour. Dark green foliage, most likely Ruscus, peeks from between the flowers and around the perimeter, the leaves smooth and slightly glossy, recalling the greenery lining Purley Way and the gardens near Riddlesdown. Below the lush head of flowers, the stems extend downward, aligned in an orderly bundle that reveals the bouquet's hand-crafted nature. This thoughtful mix of cool blues and gentle creams makes the arrangement especially fitting for sympathy occasions or memorial services across Purley and the surrounding CR8 area. It evokes feelings of peace, loyalty, and quiet remembrance, like a calm breath taken in the midst of grief, offering comfort without overwhelming the space it occupies.
REMEMBRANCE
£80.00
This image captures a luxurious round bouquet of fresh lilies and roses, artfully arranged and photographed against a pure white backdrop, as if ready to be sent from a Purley flower shop to a doorstep on Brighton Road. The arrangement feels dense and abundant, each stem carefully positioned to create a harmonious, romantic display. White lilies form the structural backbone, their large, trumpet-shaped blooms spreading out with poised elegance. Some lilies are fully open, revealing soft yellow stamens within pale green throats, while others remain in bud, a vivid green that signals exceptional freshness. Amid these, clusters of blush pink roses and creamy white roses lend a soft, dreamy quality. The roses vary in openness, from compact buds that promise longevity to full, layered blossoms that invite you to imagine their silken touch. Piercing through the pastel softness, several fuchsia and deep magenta Oriental lilies, much like Stargazer varieties, provide a dramatic accent. Their petals, speckled with darker tones and crowned with gold-tipped stamens, add depth and a sense of movement to the bouquet. Between every larger bloom, tiny white baby's breath flowers float like a cloud, creating a veil of lightness and a delicate, almost ethereal texture. Slim, glossy leaves and occasional glimpses of stems around the edge remind you of the bouquet's garden origins and the care taken in its preparation by a skilled Purley florist. The even, bright lighting brings out every colour and contour, making it easy to imagine this arrangement gracing a dining table in a Purley home, celebrating a milestone birthday, a cherished anniversary, or a heartfelt "well done" after a big achievement.
CHERISHED MOMENTS POSY
£90.00
A lovingly arranged sympathy piece that spells out MUM in strong, three-dimensional capital letters, each letter densely enrobed in tiny, crisp white chrysanthemums to form a uniformly plush, cloud-like surface against a pure white backdrop. The texture of the chrysanthemums gives the composition a serene, almost ethereal softness while conveying traditional meanings of purity and remembrance. Three thoughtfully placed accent clusters of soft lavender roses and pale pink rosebuds break the white expanse: one cluster crowns the upper left arm of the first M, another nestles in the inner curve at the base of the U, and the last sits gently on the upper right arm of the final M. These pastel roses - some fully open, others as compact buds - bring velvety form and a faint, honeyed fragrance that complements the cool green scent of fern and foliage woven through the design. Long, delicate fern fronds and smaller glossy leaves add depth and a gentle contrast of verdant tones, while a dark green structural base - ribbon-wrapped or moss-covered - is visible beneath the blooms, tracing a supportive line that connects and stabilises each letter. This composition, finished with the calm restraint suited to a funeral service, radiates comfort and timeless affection. As Purley Florist, we often prepare this style of tribute for families in Purley and the surrounding neighbourhoods, from the quiet lanes near Purley Station to the green spaces of Purley Beeches, and can arrange local delivery to the church, chapel or graveside when required.
PURPLE ACCENTED MUM TRIBUTE
£155.00
This image captures a classic heart-shaped sympathy arrangement, photographed from above so every detail of the design is clearly visible. The heart is entirely built from white chrysanthemums, also known as spray mums, set closely together to form a seamless, pillowy surface. Each bloom is fresh and full, with many layered petals that give the heart a soft, almost velvety appearance, ideal for expressing gentle condolences at a Purley memorial service or wake. The white colour is steady and pure, evoking peace, innocence, and an unspoken promise to remember. Around the outside of the heart runs a deep green satin ribbon, pleated into neat, regular folds that ripple like small waves. This ruffled border adds a sense of craftsmanship and care, its emerald shade reminiscent of the mature trees and parks around Purley Way and Riddlesdown. The ribbon's soft sheen frames the flowers in a refined, almost ceremonial way, clearly defining the heart's outline. In the upper left arc of the heart, a carefully composed accent cluster draws the eye. Two white roses, fully open and luminous, form the main focal point. Their petals curl outward in smooth layers, suggesting enduring love and gratitude for a life lived. Around them, smaller white blooms-similar to freesias or other light, airy flowers-are interwoven with lush greenery. Broad, glossy leaves lend structure and depth, while feathery fronds stretch gently across the chrysanthemums, breaking up the smooth white surface with hints of natural movement. The arrangement as a whole feels calm and dignified, the sort of piece that might accompany a casket or be placed beside a photograph at a Purley Florist-arranged tribute, offering visual comfort and heartfelt sympathy to grieving families.
ETERNITY HEART
£95.00
The photograph features a tender floral tribute designed as the word "GRANDMA," with each individual letter shaped from a padded base and then fully covered in small white chrysanthemums. These chrysanthemums are packed closely together so that the structure beneath disappears, leaving only a velvety sweep of white petals, reminiscent of freshly laundered linen or a favourite cardigan worn during visits. Around the edge of every letter runs a narrow, pale lilac ribbon, neatly pleated, adding a refined trim that enhances the outline and brings a whisper of colour without disturbing the calm simplicity of the white. To highlight special points in the name, the florist has arranged little posies of pink gerbera daisies and rose blooms, accented with fresh green foliage. The gerberas' open, circular faces create focal points of joyful pink, while the roses, some still gently cupped, offer softer, more intimate notes of love and remembrance. The greenery, with its varied leaf shapes, threads around the blooms, breaking up the white expanse and adding a natural, garden-like feel. Soft, even lighting makes the tribute appear calm and composed, with the letters legible from a distance-ideal for placement beside the coffin at a chapel or crematorium in Purley, Coulsdon, or along the Godstone Road. The overall impression is one of quiet strength and tenderness, as though each flower has been placed with a particular memory in mind. It feels like the kind of thoughtful, bespoke design a family might order from a trusted local Purley florist when they want to honour a grandmother whose kindness formed the backbone of family life.
HONORED GRANDMA TRIBUTE
£330.00
IN LOVING MEMORY WREATH
IN LOVING MEMORY WREATH
£75.00
The image captures a beautifully balanced MUM tribute arranged in three separate, three-dimensional letters, all set before a clean white background so the colours appear vivid and true. Each letter has been painstakingly covered with masses of deep mauve and rich magenta chrysanthemums, their petals forming a continuous, velvety carpet of colour across the entire surface. Tiny jade-green centres peep out from the heart of each bloom, catching the eye and adding a sense of gentle movement and life to the design. Around the sides of the letters, a softly gathered, light-pink ribbon has been wrapped and pinned, its ruffled edge providing a delicate, almost cloud-like outline that softens the strong, blocky forms. Nestled into this sea of purple and pink are clusters of roses and foliage, placed with thoughtful symmetry. On the first M, the upper left corner holds a small spray of bright pink roses, framed by airy fern fronds and glossy leaves that arc over the chrysanthemums. The base of the U features a rounded arrangement of pale pink and cream roses, accented by white filler flowers and mixed greenery, creating a calm, soothing focal point at the centre of the word. The second M is crowned on the upper right with a counterpart grouping of rich pink roses and fern, completing the visual rhythm. This tribute, typical of the style chosen by families in Purley and along Brighton Road for funeral and crematorium services, radiates dignity, tenderness, and enduring affection for a beloved mother.
LOVING MUM TRIBUTE
£160.00
A deeply comforting memorial pillow, photographed on a clean white surface with a soft shadow that defines its plush, rectangular profile, is composed of hundreds of pristine white chrysanthemum heads densely arranged to form a serene, cloud-like carpet. The chrysanthemums' compact, rounded petals create a uniform, velvety texture that conveys purity and rest, while a slim, pastel-green ribbon trim is pleated around the entire edge, its gentle colour providing a fresh, reassuring outline. Nestled diagonally in the top-left corner is an elegant posy of blooms: tender white lisianthus sit beside dramatic purple lisianthus - some petals unfurling, others held in neat buds - their contrast expressing dignity and remembrance. Feathery fern fronds and lush dark-green foliage thread through the cluster, adding natural depth and a quiet textural counterpoint; the base of the spray is bound with a darker green leaf wrap that keeps the composition neat and refined. The overall effect is one of tranquil craftsmanship and thoughtful symbolism, suited to funeral services, church viewings, or a graveside tribute. Prepared by Purley Florist with attention to traditional sympathy design, this pillow style is offered for families throughout Purley, from Purley High Street to Purley Oaks, and into neighbouring parts of Croydon - an understated, tactile emblem of condolence that reads as both dignified and tender beneath soft studio lighting.
PEACEFUL THOUGHTS CUSHION
£135.00
This dignified circular wreath, pictured on a bright white background, is a quiet composition meant to comfort: a generous, tightly packed base of pristine white chrysanthemums forms a plush, cloud-like foundation that suggests peace and purity. Subtly visible beneath the layer of white is a band of rich purple mesh or lace, peeking out along the inner circumference to add shadowed depth and a restrained colour echo that complements the accent blooms. On the upper-left, a small, luminous cream rose provides the focal point, its soft petals unfolding like a gentle memory, surrounded by a mix of glossy green foliage - variegated leaves with pale edges and delicate, feathery fern fronds that bring softness and natural texture. Thin sprays of lavender-purple statice are interspersed through the foliage, their little clusters offering a papery contrast and a muted, serene colour note. To the right, two elegant calla lilies are artfully arranged from about two o'clock to five o'clock, their smooth, sculptural forms shifting in colour from deep purple at the tips to a tender peachy-pink near the throat, their stems curving gracefully and woven into the chrysanthemum wreath to create flow. A single longer green stem crosses the lower section, tied discreetly to lead the eye toward the lilies, unifying the composition. As Purley Florist, we craft these sympathetic wreaths with care for local families around Purley Downs and the surrounding Croydon area, offering thoughtful deliveries to nearby churches and funeral venues.
PEACEFUL WREATH
£75.00
BRO TRIBUTE
PERSONALISED BRO TRIBUTE
£165.00
Against a pure white background, a large Celtic cross made entirely of fresh flowers is presented on a gentle diagonal, offering a clear view of its thoughtful construction and symbolic detail. The main structure of the cross is created from a dense covering of snowy white chrysanthemum blooms, their small, uniform heads nestled side by side along the vertical stem and crosspiece. This white surface appears soft and padded, giving the arrangement a sense of calm stillness that feels fitting for a funeral or memorial gathering in Purley or nearby Kenley. Running through and around this base, a pattern of lime green button chrysanthemums outlines the circular Celtic ring and intricate, interlaced elements, their tightly packed, rounded shapes adding definition and a slightly raised texture. The vivid green stands out against the white, suggesting vitality, renewal, and a connection to nature similar to the wooded paths of Riddlesdown Common. On the lower arm of the cross, three separate clusters of rich, deep purple carnations are positioned with care, their layered, frilled petals forming pockets of intense colour and emotional depth. Threaded among these purple blooms, fine strands of dark green foliage and slim, curling stems soften the lines and give the impression that the flowers might have been freshly gathered from a local Purley garden. The lighting is even and bright, highlighting the three-dimensional form of the cross and the precision of the floral work without distraction. Overall, this Celtic cross arrangement radiates dignity, respect, and remembrance, offering a gentle way to express sympathy and honour a loved one's life, especially where Celtic symbolism or a love of traditional design is meaningful.
WHITE CELTIC CROSS TRIBUTE
£170.00
Displayed on a pure white backdrop, this floral cross appears almost to float, its form captured from above with a gentle diagonal tilt that lends movement and grace. The outline is meticulously defined by a plush border of white spray chrysanthemums, each small head nestled tightly against the next to create a soft, cushion-like frame around the arms and base. Peeking just beyond this border is a narrow band of light green ribbon or folded foliage, following the contours of the cross and adding a refined edge of fresh, leafy colour that recalls the tree-lined avenues around Purley and nearby parks. Within this soothing frame, the centre of the cross bursts with colour and texture. Large roses in vivid hot pink and creamy pale yellow are arranged in balanced clusters, their fully opened petals spiralling outward and catching the light, symbolising love and cherished memories. Between these focal blooms, bright lime-green button chrysanthemums are grouped into compact mounds, their rounded, bobbly texture giving a contemporary feel to this traditional tribute. Threaded delicately among the roses and green chrysanthemums are smaller flowers in rich purple and violet tones, probably lisianthus or statice, filling gaps and lending both depth and subtle contrast. The lighting is bright and even, so each bloom looks fresh and vibrant, as though it has just been prepared in a local Purley studio for same-day funeral delivery. Overall, the cross conveys a deeply respectful yet uplifting mood, suitable for a church service, chapel of rest, or graveside farewell, offering comfort to grieving families while honouring the faith and life of their loved one.
PRECIOUS MEMORY CROSS
£95.00
A carefully crafted memorial pillow, photographed on a clean white backdrop so every texture and hue is clear. The rectangular cushion is composed entirely of tiny, snow-white chrysanthemum blooms (or similar small button flowers), laid densely to create a uniform, cloud-like surface that suggests peace and repose. Anchoring the visual interest is a tasteful cluster in the upper-left quadrant: rich magenta or deep fuchsia roses with layered, velvety petals, paired with sprigs of small white freesias or delicate buds that add a light, fragrant counterpoint. Interspersed among these are glossy green leaves and ferny fronds that lend an organic silhouette and a soothing contrast to the white field. Around the pillow's edge a soft green satin ribbon has been pleated or looped to form a refined border, the ribbon's faint sheen offering a quiet, ceremonial touch and subtle colour echoing local greenery. The bouquet maker's hand is evident in the balanced placement of blooms and foliage-no element competes, each supports the other to convey reverence and calm. A soft, natural shadow beneath the pillow gives depth and affirms its three-dimensional presence, as if ready to be placed beside a casket or at a graveside on a gentle morning in Purley or near Riddlesdown Common. This arrangement reads as a dignified, empathetic expression of sympathy, intended to cradle memories and offer comfort when words are not enough.
DEEPLY CHERISHED CUSHION
£135.00
An elegant sympathy arrangement stretches diagonally across a white backdrop, shaped into a long, tapering spray that feels both tranquil and purposeful, as if guiding the eye along a path of remembered moments. Dominant within the design are several white oriental lilies, their large, trumpet-shaped blooms opening with a quiet confidence, silky petals gently curving back to reveal pale golden stamens. Interspersed among these are tall buds, perfectly formed yet still closed, representing grief that is tender and ongoing. Winding between the lilies, clusters of lisianthus blooms provide a softer, more intricate texture; their white petals are subtly brushed with lavender along the edges, evoking twilight tones over gardens and tree-lined roads in Purley. Some lisianthus flowers are fully open, like tiny ruffled cups, while others remain in tight green and ivory buds, adding visual depth and a sense of time passing. The floral elements are set against a lush foundation of greenery: broad, glossy leaves, possibly aspidistra or arum, form a deep green canvas, a few of them carefully folded, curled, or layered into modern, sculptural shapes. From the lower section and side, slender, palm-like fronds extend outward, reinforcing the gentle diagonal line and lending a feeling of natural movement, like a soft breeze along Purley Way. The overall effect is calm, contemplative, and dignified, perfectly suited for a funeral service or remembrance gathering in Purley, Sanderstead, or nearby churches. This white and green spray offers a subtle yet heartfelt way to convey respect, love, and the hope of peace.
SERENITY SPRAY
£75.00
Displayed against a pure white backdrop, this sympathy sheaf expresses both grace and gravitas through its elongated diagonal composition. The stems are neatly bound at the upper left, from which the flowers and foliage sweep down to the lower right, forming a gentle cascade reminiscent of a falling tear. The centre of the arrangement is dominated by Stargazer lilies, their star-shaped blooms unfolding in rich fuchsia-pink with crisp white edging and subtle burgundy speckling, a combination that feels emotive and deeply respectful rather than overpowering. Some lilies are fully open, showcasing their prominent stamens, while others rest in bud form, cloaked in soft green with a blush of pink at the tips. Tucked around these focal flowers are creamy white roses, their layered petals arranged in tight spirals and half-open blossoms, embodying reverence and love. Soft, ruffled white carnations add volume and a comforting, downy texture. Bright magenta gerberas dot the design with circular bursts of colour, hinting at cherished memories and affection that endures even through loss. Tiny white filler flowers, reminiscent of miniature daisies, weave between the larger blooms, creating a delicate, lace-like veil throughout the spray. The arrangement is cradled by generous greenery: broad, dark green leaves form a solid backing, feathery ferns lend lightness and movement, and long, sword-like leaves extend gracefully, echoing the diagonal line and accentuating the overall length. The balanced palette of pinks, whites, and greens, combined with the careful craftsmanship, makes this tribute a comforting choice for funeral services in Purley, Kenley, or along the quieter roads near Purley Oaks, conveying admiration and condolence in a beautifully composed form.
SPECIAL THOUGHTS SPRAY
£75.00
Set against a clean white background, this circular sympathy wreath appears almost to float, its flowers forming a continuous ring of soft whites, blush pinks, and deep magenta tones that would feel fitting for a quiet gathering in Purley or along the leafy roads nearby. The arrangement is anchored by large white lilies, each flower fully open with smooth, slightly recurved petals that expose delicate green pistils and golden-tipped stamens, drawing the eye to the centre of each bloom. Between these serene lilies, vibrant fuchsia and deep pink lilies provide contrast, their star-shaped faces and subtle speckles introducing flashes of colour that add depth and feeling to the tribute. White gerbera daisies are thoughtfully scattered throughout the circle, identifiable by their neat, layered petals and dark central disks, bringing a fresh, modern accent that keeps the wreath from feeling too formal. Nestled in clusters, soft light-pink roses appear in various stages of opening-from tight buds to semi-open blooms-conveying gentleness, affection, and a sense of unfolding memories. Complementing them are creamy white roses, fuller and more open, their densely packed petals adding a sense of tradition and comfort. To soften the transitions between larger flowers, smaller white blossoms-likely miniature carnations or spray chrysanthemums-are tucked into the design, giving the wreath a plush, seamless texture. A backdrop of rich green foliage outlines and supports the entire circle, its leaves providing contrast and a natural, garden-like structure reminiscent of local Purley greenery. The finished wreath feels both dignified and tender, an expression of respect, condolence, and enduring love suitable for funerals, memorial services, or quiet remembrances at home.
LOVING MEMORY WREATH
£75.00
This photograph shows a bespoke funeral flower arrangement in the shape of the word "SON," carefully composed to create a serene and dignified tribute. Against a plain white background, the three letters stand out in relief, each one completely covered with compact white chrysanthemums. Their small, neatly layered petals form a soft, almost snow-like blanket, evoking calm and purity. Encircling the flowers is a band of red satin ribbon, expertly pleated into a scalloped trim that defines the silhouette of each letter-the curling "S," round "O," and strong "N." The ribbon's smooth, reflective surface provides a warm contrast to the matte softness of the blooms. Three groups of red anthuriums punctuate the arrangement with colour and symbolism. Their glossy, heart-shaped bracts and pronounced central spadices are unmistakable, standing proud above the white base. One generous cluster, framed by lush dark greenery and feathered fern, sits on the upper left of the "S." A single anthurium decorates the lower edge of the "O," almost as if resting there in quiet contemplation, while a larger cluster of several anthuriums and rich foliage crowns the upper right of the "N." Fine trailing stems and leaves weave across the letters, visually tying the red focal points together and softening the geometric outline. It is easy to imagine this tribute being carried into a Purley church or laid carefully at a local crematorium, a hand-crafted expression of remembrance and love, chosen by a family to say farewell to their son with grace and heartfelt pride.
FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS SON TRIBUTE
£155.00
Presented on a crisp white background, this funeral wreath offers a gentle, soothing presence, the kind of design you could imagine being carried into a service for a Purley family at a local church. The wreath is perfectly circular and lavishly packed with white baby's breath, each wiry stem branching into countless tiny blooms that merge into a velvety, cloud-like texture. This snowy halo forms the foundation of the piece. Interspersed throughout are graceful lisianthus flowers, whose petals are mostly white but delicately painted at the edges with shades of lavender and light purple, deepening to violet along certain folds. The ruffled nature of the lisianthus gives the wreath dimension and movement, as though a gentle breeze might stir the petals. A mix of fully open blossoms and tighter buds brings a sense of natural rhythm: the open flowers reveal intricate layers and darker inner tones, while the buds are pale green and creamy, suggesting tenderness and new beginnings amidst loss. The central void of the wreath is neat and clearly defined, emphasising the symbolism of continuity and the circle of life. There is no heavy greenery or decorative bow; the emphasis remains purely on the union of white gypsophila and purple-edged lisianthus, a colour pairing that conveys peace, respect, and soft-spoken sympathy. This design would be particularly fitting for funerals, memorials, or graveside tributes around Purley, resonating with those who prefer a refined, elegant floral expression of farewell.
WARM EMBRACE WREATH
£70.00
A striking heart-shaped floral tribute is presented against a bright white background, every bloom and curve visible as if it has just been set down by a careful Purley florist preparing for a quiet service near Foxley Lane. The heart itself is perfectly proportioned, with a precise vertical division that creates two complementary halves. On the left side, tightly massed creamy white and soft pale yellow roses form a serene expanse of light, the petals thick and velvety, opening in smooth spirals that suggest purity, peace, and fond recollection. Opposite them, on the right, an equally dense grouping of medium pink roses balances the design, their shades reminiscent of a gentle sunset over Surrey skies, the petals a touch more curled at the edges to give a feeling of softness and intimacy. Interlaced throughout both halves, and delicately outlining the full curve of the heart, are countless tiny white blossoms of gypsophila. These airy clusters gather like a fine lace edging, filling any gaps between the roses and adding a light, cloud-like frame that softens the strong heart silhouette. The overall impression is of great care and intention, the type of arrangement chosen when families in Purley want to express love and gratitude at a funeral or memorial. The simplicity of the background keeps all attention on the flowers, allowing the gentle contrast between cream and pink to convey both sorrow and solace, making this heart a tender, dignified farewell for someone deeply cherished.
INFINITY ROSE HEART
£105.00
A graceful sympathy wreath of white and lilac blooms is presented as a complete circle on a pure white background, the simplicity of the setting drawing the eye directly to the flowers. The wreath is composed predominantly of large white Oriental lilies, each with six smooth, slightly arching petals surrounding a soft green centre and poised stamens touched with golden-brown pollen. Some lilies are fully opened, their star-shaped forms commanding attention, while others remain partly closed or tightly budded, introducing variation in height and texture. Nestled among them are numerous frilled lisianthus-style flowers, their ruffled petals edged with gentle lavender and purple tones, creating a delicate halo of colour that remains subtle and serene. Interspersed throughout are fine sprigs of fresh greenery and eucalyptus-like foliage, the cool greens providing grounding structure and gentle contrast, echoing the peaceful, tree-lined feel of Purley's residential streets and local churches. The density of the blooms means the base of the wreath is entirely hidden, giving the impression of a plush, floral cushion shaped into a perfect ring. Light falls evenly from above, bringing out the lilies' satiny sheen and the lisianthus' soft, almost feathery texture. This funerary wreath, likely crafted by an experienced Purley florist for a local service or crematorium, conveys purity, peace, and heartfelt condolence. It is the kind of arrangement that would sit with quiet dignity beside a loved one's coffin or on a stand at a memorial, offering a calm, visual expression of love and remembrance for family and friends gathered to say goodbye.
ETERNAL AFFECTION WREATH
£80.00
The photograph captures a lovingly made floral tribute spelling out the word "DAD," designed as three individual letter shapes joined in a neat row, ideal for resting alongside a coffin or at the front of a chapel in the Purley area. Each letter is framed by a border of rich, glossy green fern foliage, the delicate fronds overlapping to create a softly textured outline that contrasts beautifully with the smooth, bright white background. Within this leafy frame, the front of each letter is completely covered with flowers, placed closely together so no frame shows through. Large white chrysanthemums and open-faced white gerbera daisies form the main body, their rounded petals giving a cushion-like effect that feels calm and reassuring. Woven among the whites are small bursts of cheerful yellow in the form of mini gerberas, button chrysanthemums, and delicate yellow spray roses, adding a gentle warmth that suggests hope and cherished memories, like sunlight across a familiar Purley street. To add depth and an extra layer of sentiment, the florist has tucked in clusters of purple lisianthus and rich magenta or deep pink spray roses, their deeper hues bringing a dignified yet loving tone to the tribute. Tiny lavender-coloured filler flowers and vivid green button chrysanthemums provide contrast, hinting at the freshness of early spring walks around local parks such as Riddlesdown or Purley Way. Slim dark green support bars discreetly link the three letters, ensuring they stand as one cohesive message of remembrance. The arrangement as a whole feels thoughtfully balanced and deeply personal, the kind of bespoke funeral flower design a local Purley florist would create to help a family say goodbye to their dad with grace, respect, and heartfelt affection.
LOVING DAD TRIBUTE
£190.00
An elegant sympathy spray stretches across the frame on a white background, composed in a flowing diagonal line that guides the eye from the full upper section to a refined point at the lower right. The central focus is on several large white lilies, their trumpet-shaped blooms open and luminous, each petal gently arched and slightly ruffled at the edge, revealing delicate stamens nestled within. Some buds remain closed, tall and pale green, promising fresh beauty in days to come. Gathered intimately around the lilies are clusters of white roses, in stages from tight buds to cups just beginning to open, and ruffled white carnations that add fullness and softness. Clean, daisy-like white Gerbera blossoms with subtle yellow or cream centres punctuate the arrangement, offering a gentle contrast in shape. Fine clusters of white filler flowers are woven throughout, giving a sense of lightness and quiet intricacy. Below and behind the blooms, the foliage is layered with care: broad, glossy deep green leaves build a sturdy base, feathery ferns bring airy movement, and rounded eucalyptus leaves in a soft blue-green hue introduce a cool, serene tone. At the top, slender strap-like leaves are artistically folded and bound, while from the lower right, long, elegant palm fronds fan out and taper away, giving the spray its distinctive elongated silhouette. Designed as a one-sided tribute, this piece would be fitting for a funeral service or memorial gathering in Purley, perhaps resting in a local church or delivered to a family home near the Downs. The calming palette of whites and greens speaks of purity, respect, and gentle farewell, evoking quiet moments of reflection.
SIMPLICITY SPRAY
£75.00
At the center of a pristine white canvas rests an exquisitely handcrafted heart-shaped floral arrangement, thoughtfully designed by Purley Florist to evoke deep emotion. Around thirty soft pink and creamy white roses make up the heart's foundation, their petals artfully furled and boasting a rich, velvety sheen. Pale yellow hints in several roses bring a warm undertone, harmonizing perfectly with the arrangement's romantic palette. Interwoven among the lush blooms, ethereal sprays of baby's breath appear like little clouds, softening the overall structure and creating pockets of airy brightness. The bouquet's deliberate symmetry and fullness result in a striking heart silhouette-an unmistakable symbol of love, remembrance, and heartfelt tributes. Gently diffused lighting helps the arrangement's colors and textures stand out, highlighting the exceptional freshness only a local Purley florist can provide. Reminiscent of tranquil afternoons at Purley Oaks or peaceful moments near the High Street, this floral heart exudes comfort and gentleness, ideally suited for expressing sympathy at a memorial or sending love on special occasions. Each detail, from the layered petals to the ethereal gypsophila, reflects care and artistry honed in the heart of Purley.
DEAREST ONE HEART
£130.00
An elegant rectangular sympathy cushion arranged on a clean white field, its surface lovingly formed from dense clusters of tiny white chrysanthemums that produce a plush, serene texture reminiscent of a resting pillow. Around the edge, a pale lime-green satin ribbon is pleated into a refined frill, adding a whisper of colour and a satin glow that complements the cool whites. At the upper left, an artful cluster anchors the design: two open white oriental lilies, their pale petals curving back to reveal warm yellow stamens, set beside a closed lily bud and a handful of deep burgundy spray carnations whose ruffled faces introduce depth and solemn warmth. Rich, varied greenery - ferny fronds and broader leaves - frames these flowers, creating pockets of shadow and a natural, cathedral-like backdrop. Two slender, arching strands of salal or bright green bear grass sweep from the left cluster across the chrysanthemum field, culminating in a single deep-red rosebud resting on the right edge; its velvety bud, barely unfolding, reads as a poignant symbol of undying affection. The scent is quietly present: the lilies' soft perfume and the faint sweet-green notes of fresh foliage, all captured in soft studio light that emphasises texture rather than gloss. As a local Purley florist I arrange pieces like this for wakes near Purley High Street and services by Purley Station - here presented with respectful simplicity by Purley Florist for those seeking a comforting, traditional tribute.
EXPRESSION OF LOVE CUSHION
£135.00
A lovingly composed memorial display spelling out DAD in large freestanding block letters, each letter clothed in a thick blanket of immaculate white chrysanthemums that create a soft, uniform surface and a calming visual presence. Each letter is neatly edged with a dark-green ruffled ribbon that provides a crisp, formal outline against the white blooms, while slim dark metal bars behind the letters form a sturdy frame that binds them into a cohesive tribute. The left-hand D carries a bright accent of 3-4 yellow roses, sunlit and warm in tone, nestling among sprigs of tiny white freesia and fresh green foliage; two slender arching stems extend from that cluster toward the centre, creating a gentle diagonal movement. The central A is given a more contemplative focal point: two deep purple, almost burgundy calla lilies with their smooth, sculpted curves, set low on the left leg and surrounded by delicate white fillers and glossy greenery, bringing a note of reverence and depth. The right D reflects the left, with a matching cluster of yellow roses and textural greens on its upper right curve, producing a reassuring symmetry. The piece reads as a respectful and personal memorial, its clean white background and subtle scent of freesia and chrysanthemums lending a sense of calm. As a local Purley florist I often prepare this style for services at nearby venues or for delivery to families around Purley Station and Purley Downs; Purley Florist can adapt the scale and ribbon tone to suit a chapel, crematorium or wake with the same careful craftsmanship and sensitivity.
FOREVER CHERISHED DAD TRIBUTE
£165.00
A handcrafted memorial piece spells out DAD in bold, three-dimensional lettering composed of a dense carpet of small white chrysanthemums, their rounded heads pressed close to create a continuous, cloud-soft surface that catches gentle studio light. Each letter is crisply defined by an emerald green pleated ribbon that follows the outer and inner contours, the ribbon's folded texture giving a quiet formality to the arrangement while complementing the cool white blooms. A narrow, dark green support bar runs discreetly behind the letters, keeping the trio level for display on a stand or at a graveside. Thoughtfully placed accent clusters punctuate the composition: the first D is adorned on its upper left curve with a compact spray of deep magenta roses at varying stages of bloom, intermingled with small white freesia and rich green foliage; the central A cradles its cluster in the lower V, where roses and freesia nestle together; the final D receives a matching cluster on the upper right curve, balancing the piece visually and emotionally. The contrast between the pristine chrysanthemums and the jewel-like roses reads as both reverent and affectionate, the freesia adding fine, citrusy-floral notes to the quiet scent. Presented as an appropriate sympathy tribute for a father, this arrangement is the sort of bespoke memorial we prepare for families around Purley High Street and Purley Station, and Purley Florist can arrange local delivery to nearby Croham Hurst or Purley Oaks on request. The overall impression is one of careful craftsmanship, comforting texture, and dignified remembrance.
GRACIOUS DAD TRIBUTE
£155.00
There is a calm dignity to this MUM tribute, designed to read clearly from the front pew on a soft morning when light filters through chapel windows around Purley Station. The letters are large, connected and entirely formed from tight clusters of snowy white chrysanthemums; each bloom is small and layered, producing a uniformly plush surface that speaks of purity and timeless remembrance. A soft, ruffled ribbon in muted rose-pink traces the outline of each letter, adding a maternal warmth that frames the white blooms like a gentle embrace. Visible between the characters is a dark green structural frame, the discreet skeleton that ensures the tribute stands steady at a graveside or funeral home viewing. Three coordinated bunches of accent flowers add colour and balance: the first M carries a compact posy of fuchsia-pink roses, glossy green fern-like foliage and tiny coral hypericum berries at its upper left; the U is graced with a similar cluster at its lower curve; and the second M echoes this arrangement at its upper right. Together, the crisp mums, velvety roses and shiny berries create an interplay of texture and scent - a soft, floral perfume that is subtle rather than overpowering. As a local floral designer familiar with Purley and the surrounding roads, I imagine this piece arriving with quiet reverence, appropriate for a memorial, wake or graveside dedication; it is an intimate expression of love and respect for a mother whose memory will be kept close.
FOREVER ADORED MUM TRIBUTE
£155.00
A carefully composed sympathy letter tribute spelling out DAD, handcrafted with hundreds of small, snowy white chrysanthemums that create a soft, uniform field across each block letter. Each letter is outlined with a ribbed, emerald green ribbon which crisply defines the shapes against the bright studio-white background, offering the visual calm of a chapel display. Thoughtful clusters of deep red roses paired with delicate white freesia sit at focal points: the upper curve of the first D, the base of the A's left stem, and the upper curve of the final D. These clusters introduce a layered contrast - the roses' velvety depth, the freesia's faint citrus-sweet perfume and the cool green foliage - while subtle loops of bear grass or slender greenery add a contemporary lift to the central A. Behind the letters thin dark green or black metal bars are discreetly visible, giving the piece stability for display at a church service, funeral cortege or graveside near Purley High Street or the quieter lanes around Sanderstead. Under soft, diffused light the chrysanthemums read pure and textured, the green ribbon catches a faint sheen, and the rose clusters bring a quiet warmth that is both tender and dignified. As a local Purley florist I would suggest this arrangement when a family wishes to honour a father with a clear, personal message; Purley Florist can create and deliver similar bespoke letters across Purley and nearby Kenley, with attention to scent, proportion and the solemn context of remembrance.
ENDLESS LOVE DAD TRIBUTE
£155.00
This photograph depicts a thoughtfully crafted sympathy basket, the kind of arrangement often chosen in Purley when families wish to send something gentle yet expressive to a funeral or memorial. The basket itself is woven in a pale cream or off-white hue, with a softly arched handle that frames a rounded dome of flowers. Set against a clean white background and lit with even, natural-looking light, every colour and petal is clearly defined. At the composition's heart is a large creamy white rose, its petals wrapped in a perfect spiral that draws the eye inward, radiating calm and quiet affection. On either side, deep purple calla lilies tilt and curve, their smooth trumpet shapes and velvety colour lending a sense of formality and gravitas, tones often associated with remembrance services in churches around Purley and Kenley. Woven between them are light lavender and lilac clematis blossoms, with fine, star-shaped petals and soft yellow centres, adding a delicate, almost ethereal layer to the design. Scattered throughout are bright yellow and crisp white filler flowers, similar to freesia or alstroemeria, whose small, bell-like blooms bring texture and gentle flashes of brightness. On the right side of the basket, a single vivid magenta gerbera daisy stands out, its radiating petals suggesting a joyful memory amid sadness. All the flowers rest in a cradle of lush greenery: broad, glossy dark leaves and lighter, feathery sprigs combine to create a rich, full base that frames the colours beautifully. A subtle shadow beneath the basket grounds the scene. The overall impression is one of soothing elegance, a floral tribute that feels both respectful and uplifting, suitable for sending condolences within the Purley community.
