A solemn yet beautiful floral cross laid out in precise, loving detail: thousands of small white chrysanthemum blooms form the body, packed so closely the surface reads as soft and seamless, a pure foundation of white that suggests peace and repose. The entire edge is traced with a ruffled purple satin ribbon, its deep violet hue giving a formal frame to the pale centre and lending the tribute a refined, ceremonial air. The vertical arm bears the word "MUM" in clear, purple letters fashioned from compact purple petals-likely lisianthus or spray chrysanthemums-so the message sits prominently and lovingly on the white field. Nestled at the intersection of the arms is the arrangement's heart: a lush, layered spray of deep violet roses and lighter lavender eustoma/lisianthus, interspersed with variegated greenery whose lighter edges and darker midribs add visual relief and natural rhythm. In some places tiny, rounded green berries peek through, offering a subtle textural contrast and a touch of earthiness against the soft blooms. Light falls evenly across the composition, bringing out the satin sheen of the ribbon and the velvety depth of the purple roses while casting soft shadows between petals. The scent is quiet and refined-powdered floral notes with a cool, green undercurrent-perfect for an atmosphere of gentle mourning. I describe this with the practiced eye of a local Harlesden florist: it is a dignified, personalised tribute meant for a funeral service, wake or graveside gathering, made to endure through the service and to convey steadfast love and remembrance.

A tender, cross-shaped funeral tribute composed entirely from thousands of small, snow-white chrysanthemum heads, each floret tucked closely to create a pillowy, cloud-like surface that reads as calm and reverent. The silhouette of the cross sits against a bright white backdrop so every petal and shadow is visible; around the perimeter a ruffled purple satin ribbon has been gently pleated and woven, its deep lilac edge giving the piece a quiet formality and framing the white with a soft, dignified contrast. Down the vertical arm the word "MUM" is set in clearly formed letters of rich purple blooms-small eustoma or spray chrysanthemum heads-so the dedication is unmistakable and beautifully personal against the pale field beneath. At the centre where the arms meet, a lush focal spray gathers dark violet and lavender roses with ruffled lisianthus (eustoma), their velvety petals easing from deep indigo to soft lavender and anchoring the design with both colour and depth. Variegated green foliage, leaves edged in pale lime and washed with deeper green towards the centre, fans and cushions the central bouquet, adding cool texture and breathing space between the florals. The arrangement gives off a subtle, clean floral scent-powder-soft and almost tea-like-which together with the cool tones evokes a sense of hush and consolation. As a Harlesden florist's description intended for sight-impaired guests and mourners, I emphasise the careful craftsmanship: dense petal placement for solidity, a satin border for ceremony, and the personalised purple letters to convey intimate remembrance. This cross is suited for a funeral service, graveside tribute, or a wake in the Harlesden area, offering a composed, respectful message of love and farewell.

    I ordered flowers for a funeral, and they were delivered the next day, just before the service. The people at the florals were very helpful in fulfilling my special requests. My family told me two weeks later how beautiful they still looked. I would use Funeral Flowers again whenever I need to send flowers or a plant.

    It was a sad moment arranging our mum's funeral. Even coming up with ideas for the wreaths and funeral posies was a problem. In the end, we just picked what we saw on this website. Everything turned out well.
