WREATHS
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
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
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
Captured against a clean, high-key white background, this circular memorial wreath appears almost to float, its ring of flowers and greenery forming a gentle halo of colour. The base is composed of dense, dark green fern foliage, with each frond curling slightly outward to create a soft, fringed border that frames the flowers without overwhelming them. Nestled tightly together on this verdant foundation are roses in a harmonious blend of pastel shades: large ivory and creamy white roses fully open, their layered petals forming generous cups; blush pink spray roses in tiny clusters, some no more than buds and others half unfurled; and warm peach and pale yellow roses that introduce a gentle warmth to the design. Threaded through the softer hues are dusty lavender and muted mauve roses, adding a quiet, vintage richness to the palette, like a treasured keepsake. The arrangement is densely packed so that the colours flow seamlessly from one bloom to the next, creating a continuous band of petals around the centre. The interplay of different flower sizes and stages of opening gives the wreath depth and dimension when viewed from the front, suggesting careful, expert craftsmanship. The atmosphere is one of tranquillity and respect, ideal for funerals or remembrance services across Purley, whether the wreath is intended to rest on a stand at the front of a chapel or lie gently on a coffin. The even, soft lighting accentuates the natural textures of the petals and the ferns, allowing the viewer to imagine the subtle fragrance of fresh roses and greenery in a quiet room filled with reflection.
FOND MEMORIES WREATH
£90.00
A tranquil circle of remembrance emerges from the skilled hands of a Purley-based florist, forming a lush wreath where classic floristry meets heartfelt sentiment. Pure white lilies dominate-some wide open, their whorled petals catching soft light, others still in bud, exuding a sense of calm that speaks to peace and renewal. Peppered throughout are vibrant stargazer lilies in fuchsia pink, with boldly speckled petals bringing vitality and cherished memory to the composition, mirroring the balance of joy and sorrow felt by families through Purley and nearby Kenley. Clusters of gentle blush and creamy roses appear between the lilies, their tightly furled and gently blossoming forms imparting comforting texture and tenderness. Underlying greenery, perhaps echoing the verdant spaces of Purley Oaks or Woodcote Park, peeks through, providing grounding freshness. Arranged perfectly in a seamless circle and set against a clean white backdrop, this wreath embodies both solemnity and quiet hope-ideal for offering condolences at local services or sending thoughtful comfort to a grieving home. Each detail, from petal to leaf, reflects a caring respect for life's moments of loss and remembrance.
IN MEMORIAM WREATH
£90.00
Arranged with careful regard for tradition and local feeling, this circular sympathy wreath sits against a clean white field and reads as a gentle emblem of remembrance. The broad majority of the design is a tightly packed ring of fresh white spray chrysanthemums; their many small petals form a seamless, velvety surface that feels almost cloud-like to the touch, suggesting calm and reverence. Crowning the upper-left arc is a concentrated spray of colour: luminous yellow roses, each unfurling in warm golden spirals, paired with rich, royal purple lisianthus whose ruffled throats bring refined drama to the composition. Scattered unopened lisianthus buds in muted lavender and pale green add softness and a sense of unfolding, while varied green foliage-including glossy, rounded leaves with faint variegation and delicate fern fronds-creates supportive texture and visual breathing room. A subtle dark purple mesh trim peeks out from under the chrysanthemum base at the inner and outer ring, a small flourish that echoes the lisianthus tones and gives the piece a finished, considered look. The wreath's open centre holds space for reflection; under gentle studio or morning light the white blooms glow with quiet dignity and the roses offer a faint, comforting scent. As prepared for families across Purley and nearby Sanderstead or Kenley, this arrangement is the kind of sympathy tribute we craft with care at Purley Florist, intended to convey respect, warmth, and heartfelt farewell in moments of loss.
ETERNAL LIGHT WREATH
£75.00
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.

£80.00
MY ADMIRATION WREATH
MY ADMIRATION WREATH
£75.00
Set against a spotless white background, this memorial wreath forms a seamless ring of foliage and roses that suggests both continuity and calm, echoing the unhurried pace of Purley's tree-lined avenues. The outer edge is defined by a thick collar of dark green fern fronds, their feathered, segmented leaves layered to create a textured halo that extends just beyond the flowers. This rich greenery acts as a supportive frame, grounding the design and giving the inner blooms a deep, natural contrast. Within this verdant ring sit large roses fully open in shades of dusty lavender, smokey mauve, and gentle greyish-purple, each one placed with deliberate spacing around the circle so that no flower overwhelms another. Their petals are many and softly ruffled, curling at the edges like pages of a beloved book, creating a sense of softness and stillness. Threaded among these are clusters of blush-toned spray roses, their smaller size and varied stages of opening-from tight bud to half-unfurled flower-introducing a lighter, more tender note. In the shadows between these main elements, small touches of darker foliage and tiny dark buds can be glimpsed, lending depth and a slightly more intimate, garden-like character, as if the wreath had been composed from flowers just brought in from a Purley back garden after a gentle rain. The lighting is even and flattering, bringing out the contrast between cool purples, warm pinks, and deep greens without any harsh glare. This wreath feels especially suited for a funeral, cremation, or celebration of life in Purley, conveying respect, sympathy, and remembrance. It appears as the kind of carefully considered tribute Purley Florist might prepare for families who want a floral expression that is both understated and deeply sincere.
LOVING GRACE WREATH
£90.00
EXCEPTIONAL LIFE WREATH
EXCEPTIONAL LIFE WREATH
£80.00
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
A graceful, circular sympathy wreath is shown in full against a clean white background, allowing its red and green color harmony to shine without distraction. The outer and inner edges of the ring are softened by masses of deep red carnations, their petals delicately frilled and layered so each bloom appears lush and full, almost like a miniature ruffled cushion. The carnations vary slightly in size and opening, which keeps the wreath from feeling rigid and instead gives it a gentle, organic flow. Between the red blooms, clusters of lime green button chrysanthemums are carefully spaced, their small, rounded forms and tightly packed florets adding a fresh, modern texture. The vibrant green of these pompon mums contrasts beautifully with the warm crimson, bringing a touch of brightness that feels quietly optimistic. Beneath and around the flowers lies a foundation of mixed foliage: fine, feathery fern fronds in deep green, broader glossy leaves, and variegated pittosporum with pale, creamy edges that introduce a light, dappled effect. A ribbon detail in differing tones of green, subtly striped, loops through the greenery in a graceful curve, adding a tailored finishing touch. The entire wreath sits serenely against the white background, reminiscent of the calm, open skies over Purley's surrounding hills and green spaces. Crafted with the care of an experienced local florist serving Purley and nearby areas like Sanderstead and Whyteleafe, this floral tribute feels perfectly suited to a funeral service, remembrance at a crematorium, or a quiet family gathering, expressing love, respect, and the enduring memory of someone dearly missed.
MY CONDOLENCES WREATH
£65.00
This elegant sympathy wreath forms a complete, unbroken circle of blooms, set against a crisp white background so every colour and contour stands out with clarity. Two prominent Asiatic lilies in a glowing coral-orange hue act as the visual anchors, one placed near the top of the ring and the other poised at the lower edge, their open petals and dusted stamens symbolising devotion and the warmth of shared memories. Between these lilies, the wreath is richly layered with blush and lavender-pink roses, their velvety petals opened to varying degrees, from tight spirals to fully unfurled blooms that suggest a life lived fully. Woven among the roses are lisianthus blossoms in gentle pink and deep, velvety purple, bringing ruffled softness and depth to the design. Delicate clouds of tiny lavender-blue filler flowers drift between the larger blooms, adding a cool, airy tone, while spiky blue-grey eryngium thistles punctuate the arrangement with an intriguing, slightly wild texture, echoing the rugged charm of plants you might notice along the edges of gardens in Purley. A lush foundation of greenery supports the flowers, with silvery eucalyptus, fern fronds, and darker green foliage creating volume and structure. Artistically folded bright green leaves are tucked around one of the lilies, showcasing the detailed craftsmanship often used by Purley Florist when preparing tributes for local funeral homes and churches. The wreath as a whole radiates calm and respect, making it a fitting choice for offering condolences, standing by the coffin, or resting beside a memorial to bring a sense of living beauty and comfort.
DEEPEST CONDOLENCES WREATH
£75.00
The photograph presents a serene, circular funeral wreath, perfectly composed on a bright white background. The entire ring is almost completely covered by tiny white Baby's Breath blooms, arranged so thickly that they seem to merge into a single, continuous cushion. Each Gypsophila floret has a soft, cloud-like quality, yet together they create a sense of fullness and gentle presence, like mist settling over the green spaces around Purley Oaks. The centre of the wreath is left open and uncluttered, a smooth circle that invites contemplation and gives the design a calm, meditative feel. On the lower right curve, two elegant calla lilies introduce a note of quiet drama. Their sculpted, trumpet-shaped flowers rise from slender green stems that arc inwards with natural grace. The petals shift from fresh green at the base to a velvety magenta-burgundy at the edges, a deep, wine-like tone that stands in thoughtful contrast to the sea of white. This subtle play of colour and shape transforms the wreath from simple to sophisticated, without losing its purity. The arrangement feels deeply personal, the white Baby's Breath symbolising innocence and peace, while the calla lilies suggest strength, admiration, and enduring love. Crafted in a style Purley Florist often provides for local funerals and celebrations of life in nearby areas like Kenley and Coulsdon, this wreath would be fitting as a main tribute at a chapel service or a quieter remembrance at home, offering a gentle, floral expression of sympathy and support when words are hard to find.
PURE LOVE WREATH
£70.00
Centered on a bright white background, a beautifully balanced circular wreath designed for sympathy and remembrance appears almost to glow, its colours and textures carefully layered. The entire ring is lushly covered so that only flowers and greenery are visible, forming a perfect, unbroken circle. Rich fuchsia and deep magenta roses create a dramatic base, their petals unfolding from compact buds into fully opened blooms that look almost velvety to the touch. Interwoven among them are lighter pink and blush roses, whose softer tones evoke gentler memories and affection. Large double lilies, in creamy white washed with blush pink and hints of peach, punctuate the wreath at intervals, giving the design a sense of rhythm. Some lilies are wide open, displaying multiple layers of petals and softly coloured throats, while a few buds in bright yellow-green rise modestly above the surrounding blooms, promising further unfolding beauty. Beneath and around the flowers, a plentiful mix of foliage holds the design together. Fine-textured fern fronds radiate out to create a soft, feathery edge, while thicker, glossy leaves with occasional variegated markings add weight and depth to the inner circle. The interplay of vivid pinks against deep emerald greens stands out crisply against the white background, drawing the viewer into the calm, circular flow of the arrangement. This is the sort of wreath a Purley family might see resting on a stand at a service near the high street or laid carefully at the graveside, expressing respect, love, and continuity. The design feels both composed and deeply heartfelt, offering gentle comfort in moments of farewell.
SPIRITED GRACE WREATH
£95.00
FOREVER LOVED WREATH
£95.00
In this image, a large circular wreath for a funeral or memorial is set against a clean, white background, making each flower and leaf stand out in clear detail. The wreath is crafted mainly from deep red roses, their lush, velvety heads forming the main body of the ring. The roses are fully opened, with petals layered in soft spirals that gradually relax toward the outer edges, moving from a vibrant crimson at the tips to deeper burgundy tones in the shadows. Among them, clusters of sunny yellow chrysanthemums and small button-style blooms are tucked in, their fine, feathery petals softening the boldness of the roses and adding a gentle brightness that feels like a quiet ray of light on a sombre day in Purley. The contrast between the rich reds and vivid yellows is balanced by a generous layer of greenery. Glossy, dark green leaves, most likely salal or similar foliage, create a sturdy backdrop, while sprigs of more muted, grey-green leaves suggest eucalyptus, adding a softer, almost misty touch reminiscent of the tree-lined paths near Purley's open spaces. The wreath forms a perfect, unbroken circle with an open centre, a traditional symbol of eternity, continuity, and unending love, often chosen by families across Purley for funeral services and remembrance gatherings. The arrangement is tightly bound and evenly filled, showing careful craftsmanship and attention to detail. With its balanced colours, fresh textures, and gentle radiance, this floral tribute feels both dignified and compassionate, suitable for honouring a loved one at a local church, chapel, or crematorium service in the Purley community.
HEARTFELT CONDOLENCES WREATH
£85.00
PEACE AND PRAYERS WREATH
£90.00
Set against a bright white background, this floral arrangement is designed as a lifebuoy-shaped funeral wreath, its perfect circular form and clear centre immediately evoking the reassuring image of safety at sea. The ring is densely constructed from numerous small blooms, likely chrysanthemums or similar flowers, giving it a plush, tactile surface that feels both soft and substantial. The design is carefully divided into four balanced colour blocks, alternating between rich royal blue and clean white as you travel around the circle. The blue segments look deep and velvety, like calm ocean water under a clear sky, while the white segments introduce a serene brightness, suggesting clarity, peace, and a gentle farewell. Along the inner rim, a narrow band of dark blue ribbon is neatly pleated, adding a subtle ruffled edge that accentuates the lifebuoy silhouette and adds a note of refined craftsmanship. The lighting is even and neutral, allowing the bold contrast between blue and white to take centre stage and revealing the precision with which the florist has maintained sharp boundaries between each colour block. This wreath carries a strong emotional message of rescue, guidance, and unwavering support, making it particularly meaningful for families around Purley, Riddlesdown, and along the Brighton Road who want to honour someone connected with the sea, the navy, lifeguarding, or emergency services. It also feels appropriate for commemorating a person known as a stabilising, protective presence within their family or community, offering the symbolic comfort of a lifeline during times of grief and reflection.
