Funeral Flowers
A large, heart-shaped sympathy tribute rests against a clean white background, its entire surface densely carpeted with small, pristine white chrysanthemums that create a soft, velvety effect, as if the heart were cushioned with pure light. Every bloom sits closely beside its neighbour, forming an unbroken field of white that speaks of peace, innocence, and quiet remembrance, much like the stillness you might feel on an early morning walk through Plaistow Park. Along the outer edge, an emerald green ribbon winds neatly around the heart, its satin finish catching the light and giving a graceful, tailored frame to the arrangement. Cutting diagonally across the upper left side is a dramatic spray of deep magenta calla lilies, their curved, funnel-shaped flowers unfurling around darker centres. Three of these lilies are fully open and stand prominently at the top of the cluster, while a couple of slender, partially opened blooms trail downward, adding a gentle sense of flow, as though the flowers themselves were bowing in respect. Delicate clusters of white freesia-like flowers are nestled among the calla lilies, with small, starry petals that suggest a soft, comforting fragrance. Lush greenery, including glossy broad leaves and feathery fern fronds, fans out around the focal blooms, adding depth, volume, and a natural woodland texture. The overall composition feels both elegant and deeply personal, the pink and green accents standing in tender contrast to the white base, creating a heartfelt floral tribute that could be chosen by a Plaistow family to honour a cherished relative or friend at a funeral or memorial service.
ALWAYS REMEMBERED HEART
£95.00
A striking Union Jack funeral tribute is crafted entirely from compact, vividly coloured flowers, forming a rectangular flag design that feels both dignified and deeply personal. Dense clusters of rich blue blooms create a plush background, their small petals sitting so close together they resemble a soft textile rather than individual stems. On this blue base, a broad red St George's Cross runs vertically and horizontally through the centre, its lines strong and unwavering. The diagonal red bands of St Patrick's Cross are layered with equal precision, each one carefully edged with crisp white flowers to produce the intricate fimbriation of the British flag. Wider ribbons of white blossoms compose the St Andrew's Cross beneath, so that every intersection of red and white appears clean, sharp, and thoughtfully measured. The floral heads create gentle shadows and subtle height differences, giving the otherwise flat rectangle a subtle three-dimensional quality. Presented on a plain white background, the colours appear especially vivid, the red and blue deepening against the brightness of the white areas. This patriotic floral piece carries the quiet weight of remembrance, suitable for a funeral or memorial where British service, identity, or shared history is being honoured. It is the kind of tribute a family in Plaistow might choose for a loved one who served in the forces or cherished royal occasions marked across East London, from Armistice commemorations on the local high street to national events watched from homes near Balaam Street or Plaistow Underground. The overall impression is of respect, unity, and a life remembered with pride.
PEACEFUL DREAMS CUSHION
£150.00
A softly contoured floral cushion, shaped like a plump rectangular pillow with rounded corners, fills the image, floating against a clean white backdrop that accentuates every petal and leaf. The tribute is lavishly covered in a tapestry of roses and seasonal blooms, blending shades of bright fuchsia, gentle pastel pink, and creamy pale yellow with cool notes of purple. Large roses dominate, many fully open so their swirling petals form romantic rosettes; their tones move from rich, almost magenta pink to whisper-light blush and buttery cream, giving the design depth and warmth. Nestled between them are deep royal-purple lisianthus, their velvety, layered blooms providing a soothing contrast and a sense of quiet dignity. Smaller clusters of blush spray roses and tiny lavender-hued flowers, similar to statice or limonium, drift through the arrangement like a fine lace, filling spaces and softening the edges of each blossom. A base of greenery creates a cushioned effect beneath the flowers: rounded, silvery eucalyptus leaves catch the light, while darker, more slender fern-like foliage adds texture and shadow. The overall impression is one of tenderness and care, as if crafted by a Plaistow florist who understands the need for gentle beauty at a time of loss. The serene, evenly lit setting suggests a tribute ready for delivery to a local chapel of rest or a quiet service near Plaistow station, offering comfort to family and friends as they say goodbye and honour cherished memories.
HEARTFELT SORROW CUSHION
£95.00
A carefully composed funeral tribute spells out "DAD" in large, upright letters, each one formed entirely from dense clusters of pure white chrysanthemums that create a smooth, cushion-like texture. The tribute is photographed against a bright white background, so the subtle shadows between the petals and the crisp outlines of each letter stand out clearly. Around the outer edges, a vibrant deep green ribbon is pleated and pinned with precision, framing the word and giving it the same kind of fresh, living green you see along the tree-lined streets leading from Plaistow Station. The first "D" carries a delicate accent of white freesia and fresh foliage at its top left curve, their slender buds and open blooms adding a hint of movement and airy lightness to the solid block of chrysanthemums. From this cluster, two slender green stems sweep diagonally across the design towards the central "A", guiding the gaze gently from left to right. Resting near the centre is an asymmetrical spray: two rich, velvety purple calla lilies, with their elegant, rolled trumpets, sit among smaller white freesia blossoms and polished green leaves, creating a thoughtful contrast of colour and shape. The final "D" mirrors the first with a more compact spray of white freesia and greenery at its upper right edge, tying the composition together. Slim, dark bars behind the letters hint at a sturdy frame, showing that the arrangement is designed to stand at a funeral service, wake, or memorial gathering. The overall mood is serene and respectful, a tender floral message of love and remembrance for a father, suitable for families across Plaistow saying their last goodbye.
PEACEFUL DAD TRIBUTE
£160.00
I designed this circular sympathy wreath to feel like a calm, steady embrace, shown here on a pure white background that highlights every careful detail. The main body is a dense ring of pristine white cushion chrysanthemums whose many ruffled petals form a seamless, velvety plane - a visual metaphor for purity, continuity and peaceful remembrance. At the wreath's upper-left quadrant, a cluster of purple Eustoma (Lisianthus) creates a quiet focal point: petals range from deep violet to soft lavender, with a mix of fully opened blooms and delicate buds that introduce subtle movement and tonal depth. Interspersed among the purple flowers are varied green leaves - some broad and variegated, some finely textured - which brighten the composition and add natural structure. Along the inner and outer rims a delicate band of dark purple mesh or lace peeks through, its crinkled texture echoing the lisianthus tones and framing the white cushion of flowers with a refined accent. The studio lighting is gentle and diffused, producing a soft shadow beneath the wreath that lifts it from the background and reveals its three-dimensional craftsmanship. As an experienced local florist serving Plaistow, Canning Town and nearby Upton Park, Plaistow Florist often creates arrangements like this for funerals and memorial services; it's the kind of tribute that conveys respect, quiet dignity and heartfelt sympathy while remaining composed and comforting for family and friends.
HONORING MEMORY WREATH
£75.00
A dignified funeral wreath, meticulously assembled from hundreds of small white chrysanthemums, fills the eye with a sense of calm and respect. Each chrysanthemum head contributes to a uniform, cushion-like ring whose ruffled petals create a soft, cool texture that invites touch in the imagination. The wreath's perfect circle is subtly edged by a dark purple net or ribbon that slips in and out of sight between the flowers, introducing a whisper of depth and a restrained note of colour that complements the main blooms. Crowning the upper-left curve is a thoughtful spray of accent flowers: three pale yellow roses open gently at the center of the composition, their velvety layers suggesting care and enduring friendship. Around them, clouds of fine white gypsophila and touches of lavender-hued statice add lightness and a tender contrast, while assorted fresh greenery - from smooth, broad leaves to delicate ferny fronds - gives structure and a sense of living presence. The lighting is soft and even, as if photographed in the quiet of early daylight near Plaistow station, which highlights the subtle interplay of white and cream and the faint purple trim. The overall effect is one of restrained elegance and compassionate intent; this wreath would serve as a measured, respectful tribute at a memorial service in Plaistow or a nearby chapel, offering those who gather a visual expression of remembrance and peaceful consolation.
IN MY PRAYERS WREATH
£75.00
A carefully crafted heart-shaped floral tribute fills the frame, designed as a tender expression of sympathy and remembrance for a loved one from the Plaistow area. The heart is completely carpeted with closely packed white chrysanthemums, their tiny petals forming a smooth, plush surface that feels visually soft and almost cloud-like. This snowy backdrop speaks of innocence, peace, and a sense of gentle rest. At the upper left curve of the heart sits a graceful spray of three deep red roses, each bloom perfectly formed with layers of velvety petals unfolding in a rich crimson hue. These roses are surrounded by delicate white filler flowers, perhaps freesias or similar blossoms, and a mix of dark green leaves and airy, fern-like greenery that add depth and natural texture. Two additional red roses extend the diagonal line of colour, placed thoughtfully toward the centre-right and lower-right of the design, as if guiding the eye slowly down the heart. Fine strands of bright green ornamental grass arc between the roses, creating elegant sweeps across the white chrysanthemums, like gentle brushstrokes on a canvas. A narrow border of forest green satin ribbon runs neatly around the edge, framing the heart and giving it a polished, professional finish. Set against a stark white background, the contrast between the pure white blooms, the vivid red roses, and the lush greens is striking yet serene. It feels like the kind of tribute a local family might send through a Plaistow florist for a funeral service, burial, or memorial gathering near Plaistow Park, honouring a life with quiet dignity and heartfelt affection.
BEAUTIFUL MEMORIES HEART
£95.00
A meticulously crafted bouquet of roses is presented against a crisp white backdrop, its rounded, almost perfectly domed shape showing the practiced hand of an experienced Plaistow florist. The arrangement is built around two harmonising shades: deep, royal-blue roses and soft cream roses that border on ivory, each bloom layered with velvety petals that curl outward in graceful spirals. The blue roses hold a cool, contemplative tone, while the cream roses soften the palette, creating a quiet dialogue of light and shadow that feels comforting, like a peaceful walk along the quieter streets off Barking Road. Threaded throughout the roses are fine sprays of white baby's breath, each tiny floret adding a misty, cloud-like layer over the sturdier forms of the larger blooms. Lush, dark green foliage nestles between the roses, emerging here and there at the edges to frame the design and suggest freshness and life. The stems are gathered cleanly at the base, forming a neat handle that shows this is a hand-tied bouquet, ready for a vase or to be carried as a personal condolence gesture. Clear, even lighting reveals subtle details-the slight sheen on the leaves, the velvety texture of the petals, the gentle shadows where blooms overlap. The overall mood is serene and reflective, a tasteful sympathy bouquet suited to expressing quiet support and heartfelt condolences for families in and around Plaistow, from local homes to nearby chapels and remembrance services.
REMEMBRANCE
£80.00
A round, lavish bouquet of lilies and roses is centered against a crisp white backdrop, its colours and forms arranged with the care of an experienced Plaistow florist. The composition feels almost like a blooming sphere, densely packed yet perfectly balanced, with no stem or tie visible, so that only the flowers and foliage command attention. Dominating the design are generous white lilies, their trumpet-shaped blooms opening in layered arcs, some flowers fully spread and others still in elongated buds tipped with green, suggesting freshness and longevity. Threaded between these are soft blush pink roses and elegant cream roses, their petals velvety and spiralled, ranging from just-opening buds to fully open cups that invite the eye inward. At intervals, vivid magenta Oriental lilies, probably Stargazers, break through the pastel palette, their deep pink petals freckled with burgundy spots and accentuated by golden anthers, lending a dramatic, celebratory flair. Airy sprigs of white baby's breath drift across the arrangement like fine lace, filling in spaces and adding a gentle, cloud-soft texture that contrasts with the smoother petals. Hints of glossy green leaves and stems can be glimpsed beneath the blossoms, grounding the bouquet in nature. The bright, even studio lighting flattens any distracting shadows, making this arrangement ideal for showcasing online for same-day flower delivery across Plaistow, Upton Park, and nearby streets. Emotionally, the bouquet speaks of joyful milestones and deep affection, perfectly suited to romantic surprises, engagement celebrations, or an elegant centrepiece for a family gathering in an East London home.
CHERISHED MOMENTS POSY
£90.00
This heartfelt sympathy tribute reads "MUM" in three bold, sculpted letters, each built from a dense congregation of pristine white chrysanthemums whose tiny petals create a cloud-like, tactile surface. The bright white blooms give the arrangement a serene, luminous quality-pure, understated and full of quiet reverence. Placed with intention, three clusters of accent roses in softened lavender and pale pink break the white field like gentle notes: the first adorns the upper left arm of the initial 'M', the second nestles into the gentle curve of the 'U', and the third graces the upper right of the final 'M'. These roses, some opening wide, others still tender buds, bring a velvety texture and a faint, classic rose scent that complements the chrysanthemum's crispness. Slender fern fronds and sprays of fresh green foliage thread through the design, adding depth and a natural movement against the immaculate white. Beneath the blooms the darker green structural frame-conceivably ribboned or moss-wrapped-shows as a subtle outline, providing stability and a neat base that connects each letter into a unified tribute. Bathed in soft light, this arrangement communicates peace and loving remembrance, and is crafted with the care of an east London florist familiar with local services around Upton Park, West Ham Lane and the Barking Road corridor-an elegant, personal expression of condolence for a mother's funeral or memorial.
PURPLE ACCENTED MUM TRIBUTE
£155.00
A large, pristine heart-shaped floral tribute fills the frame, its silhouette sharply defined yet softened by a luxurious blanket of white chrysanthemums. Each tiny chrysanthemum head is nestled closely beside the next, forming a smooth, cloud-like surface that speaks of calm, purity, and quiet remembrance. Around the entire edge of the heart runs a vibrant emerald green satin ribbon, pleated and ruffled into gentle scallops that mark out the heart's contours and lend a tailored, respectful finish. Set into the upper left arc is an artfully composed cluster of sympathy flowers, where two elegant white roses open fully, their creamy petals spiralling outward in a symbol of love that endures beyond loss. They are accompanied by dainty white freesias or similar buds, which introduce subtle curves and a hint of fragrance, as though the arrangement is quietly breathing in the stillness. Rich green foliage, with a mix of glossy larger leaves and airy, feathery sprays, wraps around and beneath the roses, extending here and there over the white chrysanthemum base and adding depth and natural movement. The design is photographed against a simple, bright white background, allowing every petal, pleat, and leaf to stand out clearly. Created in a style often chosen by families in Plaistow for funeral services and graveside tributes, this floral heart reflects the care and sensitivity of a local florist who understands the importance of saying goodbye with grace, compassion, and beautifully fresh flowers.
ETERNITY HEART
£95.00
In this detailed funeral tribute, the word "GRANDMA" is formed from seven bold letters, each one tightly packed with snowy white chrysanthemums that give the arrangement a velvety, cushion-like surface. The flowers look freshly picked, the petals layered neatly so that not a single gap of foam beneath is visible, evoking the sense of care that goes into every farewell. A fine lilac ribbon trims each letter, its gentle pastel tone bringing a calm, dignified outline that softens the strong shapes and lends a touch of quiet elegance. Small grouped posies of pink gerbera daisies and blush roses are arranged at three key points - on the starting "G", the central "A", and the final letter - where their rounded forms and richer pink tones introduce subtle bursts of joy amid the white. Short, glossy leaves and wisps of fresh foliage surround the pink flowers, adding movement, texture, and a hint of garden freshness you might associate with a stroll past front gardens off Barking Road or tree-lined corners near Plaistow Park. The lighting in the image is even and gentle, catching on the chrysanthemum petals so they appear almost pearly, while the ribbon edges form a clean, defined border. This piece feels steady and reassuring, like the presence of a much-loved grandmother who shaped family life over many years. Designed with thought and precision, it is ideal for a funeral service or crematorium farewell in Plaistow, offering relatives a beautiful, readable tribute that carries both sorrow and affectionate remembrance through the language of flowers.
HONORED GRANDMA TRIBUTE
£330.00
IN LOVING MEMORY WREATH
IN LOVING MEMORY WREATH
£75.00
Set against a spotless white backdrop, this moving funeral tribute spells "MUM" in large, block letters that appear almost sculpted from flowers. The structure of each letter is completely hidden beneath a dense layer of small chrysanthemums in shades of deep magenta and fuchsia purple, the petals forming a plush, almost quilted texture. Tiny lime-green centers wink through the colour, adding light and a natural sense of movement, as though the flowers have just been freshly arranged for a service in Plaistow or nearby Upton Park. Along every outer edge, a pale pink, softly frilled ribbon is carefully pinned in place, tracing the contours of the letters and lending a gentle, feminine finish that feels especially fitting for a mother's tribute. The first "M" is topped on its left shoulder with an accent spray of vivid pink roses, some fully open and others still unfurling, nestled among fronds of fresh green fern and complementary foliage. At the base of the "U", a graceful cluster of pale blush and cream roses is arranged with variegated greenery and dainty white filler flowers, forming a small crescent that echoes the curve of the letter. The second "M" carries a matching flourish on its right side, where more deep pink roses and airy fern leaves create a sense of balance and symmetry. This bespoke memorial piece feels both strong and tender, capturing the warmth, gratitude, and lasting bond between a family and their mother, and would make a striking, heartfelt display at a chapel, crematorium, or home-going gathering in the Plaistow community.
LOVING MUM TRIBUTE
£160.00
A carefully composed sympathy pillow formed from a dense sea of pure white chrysanthemum heads, each bloom placed close together to create a gently rounded rectangular cushion that suggests peace and rest. The chrysanthemums' delicate, petal-dense faces produce a clean, soft texture that absorbs the light and lends a serene, monochrome field across the arrangement. A soft, light green ribbon trims the entire edge in a continuous, pleated band, the satin folds catching a subtle sheen that frames the white like new spring leaves. Nestled at the upper left is a small, considered spray of flowers: layered white lisianthus, and rich purple lisianthus - some unfurled, some in bud - whose cool violet tones offer a dignified contrast and a quiet note of remembrance. Interspersed among the blooms are wisps of feathery fern and broad, glossy foliage, introducing organic movement and a fresh green lift; at the base the stems are bound within a darker green leaf wrap that keeps the cluster tidy and reverent. The arrangement sits against a bright white background with a faint drop shadow that reveals its puffy depth and the florist's precision. Prepared by Plaistow Florist with local sensibility, this pillow is designed as a respectful tribute for memorial services, graveside placements, or intimate wakes, carrying the soft scent of blooms and the understated craftsmanship familiar to neighbors around Plaistow Station and Upton Lane.
PEACEFUL THOUGHTS CUSHION
£135.00
An elegant, circular memorial wreath crafted with a full, plush base of pristine white chrysanthemums that form a soft, cloud-like halo of texture and light. Tucked beneath the surface, a ribbon of deep purple mesh or fine netting peeks out along the inner ring, adding a discreet, dignified contrast to the white. At the top-left quarter I arranged a small bouquet of mixed foliage and blooms: a single, perfectly shaped cream-to-pale-yellow rose gently opens at the centre, its scent faint and tender beneath the sharper green notes. Around it, variegated leaves with lighter margins and feathery fern fronds create softness and structure while tiny lavender-purple statice sprigs add a papery, serene punctuation. On the opposite side two graceful calla lilies curve from about two o'clock through to five o'clock; their elongated trumpets show a subtle gradient from deeper violet at the tips down to a peachy-blush near the base, the green stems arcing along the wreath's lower-right curve to create movement and balance. A single, longer green stem runs across the lower section from the left cluster toward the callas, secured discreetly to lead the eye and physically bind the composition. Bathed in soft, natural light and photographed against a clean white backdrop, this wreath conveys quiet dignity and comfort-an arrangement we often prepare for memorial services at Plaistow chapels and nearby West Ham Park commemorations. Prepared with local care by Plaistow Florist, it offers a gentle, respectful expression of remembrance.
PEACEFUL WREATH
£75.00
BRO TRIBUTE
PERSONALISED BRO TRIBUTE
£165.00
A beautifully detailed Celtic cross floral tribute rests against a clean white studio backdrop, its shape instantly recognisable and lovingly rendered in white, lime green, and purple blooms. The arms of the cross, both vertical and horizontal, are tightly carpeted with small white chrysanthemums, creating a plush, almost cloud-like surface that seems soft to the touch. These snow-white flowers are meticulously aligned, giving the tribute a formal, respectful presence, ideal for a funeral or memorial gathering in Plaistow or nearby Stratford. Encircling the heart of the cross, a continuous band of lime green button chrysanthemums forms the classic Celtic ring, their rounded heads sitting slightly proud of the white base and catching the light in a fresh, lively way. The green flowers thread through the design, outlining small knot-like patterns and lending the piece an intricate, hand-crafted character that suggests continuity and eternal life. On the lower arm of the cross, three generous clusters of deep purple carnations cascade on a gentle diagonal, their layered petals rich and velvety, evoking love, devotion, and solemn respect. Slender strands of greenery and fine tendrils wind through these purple blooms and trail softly over the white chrysanthemum background, adding movement and a natural, garden-like feel. The composition is balanced and three-dimensional, every bloom placed with care, as a skilled local florist might arrange it for a service at a chapel off the Barking Road. The overall impression is one of calm dignity and enduring remembrance, a floral cross that quietly supports family and friends in their moments of goodbye.
WHITE CELTIC CROSS TRIBUTE
£170.00
A striking floral cross is presented on a pure white background, the image taken from a slight overhead angle so every flower and fold can be seen in detail. The outline of the cross is defined by a dense border of white spray chrysanthemums, their tiny petals forming a plush, almost quilted frame that feels calm and serene. Just beneath this white halo, a band of neatly folded pale green ribbon or foliage curves around the shape, like a gentle echo of new leaves in spring, giving structure and a subtle touch of colour. Inside the cross, the florist's artistry unfolds in a tapestry of vivid blooms. Large, fully opened roses in hot fuchsia pink and creamy pale yellow are positioned along the arms and length of the cross, their layered petals unfurling softly, catching the light and guiding the gaze from top to base. Dotted between them are bright lime-green button chrysanthemums, round and playful, adding fresh energy and a lively texture that contrasts with the smoothness of the roses. Interwoven among these focal blooms are smaller flowers in deep purple and violet - perhaps lisianthus or statice - bringing richness and depth, like quiet shadows in a stained-glass window. The cross is tilted gently from top left to bottom right, enhancing its three-dimensional presence and making it feel as though it could be resting on a stand at a Plaistow church or crematorium chapel. Crafted with the sensitivity of an experienced local florist, this floral cross conveys tender sympathy and lasting remembrance, ideal for funeral services and graveside tributes throughout Plaistow and the nearby East London community.
PRECIOUS MEMORY CROSS
£95.00
This memorial pillow is a study in quiet restraint: a rectangular cushion completely covered in a uniform sea of small, immaculate white chrysanthemums so closely set they create a plush, fabric-like surface. The lighting is soft and even, revealing subtle textural ripples across the white field while a soft shadow beneath suggests three-dimensional form. Anchoring the composition at the top-left, a compact cluster of deep magenta-fuchsia roses commands attention - their velvety petals opening in layered spirals - and they are softened by interspersed sprays of fragrant white freesias that lend a gentle perfume and delicate contrast. Sprigs of fern-like foliage and glossy greens cradle the accent cluster, their shapes giving the tribute natural movement and a fresh, living quality. Around the perimeter the pillow is trimmed in a pleated, pale green satin ribbon that peeks out and neatly defines the shape, a subtle ceremonial touch that complements the cool whites and rich pinks. Intended as a sympathy or funeral arrangement, the overall mood is one of peace, comfort and reverence; it conveys rest and remembrance more than exuberance. Made with local care for families in Plaistow and neighbouring Upton Park or Canning Town, this style is a common choice for chapel displays or graveside services. At Plaistow Florist we craft each pillow with the same attention to texture, scent and proportion to honour memory gently and respectfully.
DEEPLY CHERISHED CUSHION
£135.00
Set against a stark white backdrop, this classic sympathy spray from a Plaistow-based florist stretches gracefully on the diagonal, broad at the upper left and tapering to a fine point at the lower right. The composition is built around majestic white lilies, their trumpet-shaped blooms unfurling in stages, from tightly held buds to fully opened flowers with softly arching petals and pale golden centres. These lilies bring a sense of purity and stillness, the kind of calm presence many families look for when sending condolences across Plaistow and the neighbouring streets that run towards Upton Park. Threaded between the lilies, delicate Lisianthus flowers add a quieter note: small, ruffled, cup-like blossoms in white with refined lavender edging, accompanied by tiny, closed buds that lend depth and promise. The foliage is abundant and carefully structured. Broad, dark leaves form a secure foundation, some left smooth and flat, others expertly curled into loops that introduce a modern, almost architectural detail. Long, slender fronds, reminiscent of palm or aspidistra, sweep outward from one side, giving the arrangement movement, like a gentle bow or a final gesture of farewell. The overall colour palette remains cool and tranquil-white, soft green, and muted lavender-while the textures invite the imagination: velvety petals, firm stems, and the polished gloss of the larger leaves. This is the kind of dignified floral tribute one might picture resting near a casket at a local Plaistow service, laid on a memorial table, or delivered in sympathy to a family home, quietly expressing love, remembrance, and grace.
SERENITY SPRAY
£75.00
Set against a crisp white backdrop, this graceful sympathy sheaf creates a striking yet tender visual, its elongated form drifting diagonally from top left to bottom right like a final, loving gesture. At the heart of the design, several large Stargazer lilies command attention, their petals a vivid fuchsia-pink with fine burgundy speckling and clear white edges, catching the light on each gently curved surface. Some lilies are fully open, revealing their star-shaped centres, while others remain partly in bud, with soft green tips tinged in pink, suggesting moments still unfolding. Around them, magenta gerbera daisies bring confident bursts of colour, their rounded faces symbolising cheerful memories, while creamy white roses-some in tight buds, some just beginning to unfurl-introduce a note of purity and peace. Ruffled white carnations add a velvety, cushion-like texture, evoking comfort, and tiny white daisy-like fillers weave between the larger blooms, softening every transition. The arrangement is anchored by a generous layer of foliage: broad dark leaves create depth, airy fern fronds extend gently outward, and long blades of vibrant green foliage arc and cascade toward the lower right, guiding the eye along the spray's gentle curve. The stems are neatly bound at the upper left, a clear sign of careful, hands-on craftsmanship from a local Plaistow florist who understands the sensitivity of farewell tributes. Perfect for a funeral service at a local chapel near Plaistow Park or as a delivery to families along Barking Road, this design conveys enduring admiration, quiet strength, and heartfelt condolences through its harmonious blend of colour, shape, and texture.
SPECIAL THOUGHTS SPRAY
£75.00
A full, open circular wreath of sympathy flowers rests against a clean white backdrop, its colours shifting gracefully from pure white to soft pink and rich magenta. Around the ring, large white lilies open wide, each bloom showing firm, satiny petals, a pale green throat, and slender golden stamens that lend a quiet, sacred feel. Interwoven with them are vivid fuchsia and deep pink lilies, their star-shaped, sometimes speckled petals adding drama and a sense of heartfelt intensity to the tribute. Clusters of white gerbera daisies punctuate the design, their dark central disks offering contrast and drawing the eye along the curve of the wreath. Between the larger flowers, you can almost feel the softness of pale blush roses and creamy white roses, some in tight buds, others fully unfurled, the layered petals suggesting whispered memories and enduring affection. Smaller white filler blooms, likely petite carnations or spray chrysanthemums, are tucked thoughtfully into every gap, so the wreath appears lush, complete, and comforting from every angle. The surrounding greenery, in varied shapes and shades of fresh leaf, provides structure and a natural frame, echoing the greenery you might see lining the streets around Plaistow station or near West Ham Park. The overall impression is one of calm and quiet dignity, a carefully composed funeral wreath that local families in Plaistow might choose when they wish to express sympathy, respect, and lasting love through beautiful, freshly arranged flowers.
LOVING MEMORY WREATH
£75.00
This image shows a deeply moving funeral tribute spelling "SON" in large, upright letters, designed with the care and precision you would expect from an experienced Plaistow florist. Each letter is built on a sturdy base and upholstered in a thick carpet of white chrysanthemums, so closely arranged that no gaps show, creating a smooth yet softly textured surface reminiscent of freshly fallen snow. The brightness of the white blooms suggests peace, innocence, and a gentle goodbye. Encircling every letter is a vivid red satin ribbon, gathered into a neat, scalloped border that clearly defines the shapes and adds a handcrafted touch, like a carefully stitched frame around a cherished memory. Three distinct accents of red anthuriums, instantly recognisable for their waxy, heart-shaped spathes and golden-tipped spadices, introduce a rich, emotional contrast. A prominent cluster, interwoven with deep green foliage and feathery fern, sits on the upper left of the "S." Another single anthurium nestles in the lower curve of the "O," almost like a quiet heartbeat, while a final, fuller grouping adorns the upper right of the "N," anchoring the word visually. Slender green leaves and stems are artfully draped across the letters, gently linking each red feature so the design feels connected and flowing. Set against a clean white background, the tribute appears calm and contemplative, making it ideal for a funeral or memorial held in and around Plaistow, from local churches to services for families gathering from nearby Stratford or Upton Park. The overall impression is one of dignified love and heartfelt remembrance for a treasured son.
FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS SON TRIBUTE
£155.00
Set against a spotless white background, this circular funeral wreath appears like a soft ring of cloud, built from countless stems of fine white Baby's Breath and accented with graceful lisianthus. The gypsophila creates a feathery, snow-like texture across the whole circumference, its tiny clusters forming a continuous, cushiony surface. Nestled into this white haze are lisianthus blooms in varying stages of life: some fully opened with generous, rippling petals, others partially closed, their buds still tinged with soft green and cream. Each lisianthus petal begins in clear white and gently deepens into lavender and rich violet at the outer edges, as though brushed with watercolour, adding depth and gentle movement all around the wreath. There is a calm balance between light and shadow, with the darker purple edging drawing the eye while never disturbing the overall sense of tranquillity. The hollow centre is clean and perfectly round, emphasising the timeless symbol of eternity that makes this style so fitting for funerals, memorials, or moments of quiet remembrance at home. One can imagine this wreath delivered to a service in Plaistow, perhaps along Balaam Street or near Plaistow Station, as a respectful tribute from family or friends. The arrangement carries a feeling of hushed stillness and dignity, like an early morning walk through the quieter streets of E13, offering comfort and a gentle visual blessing when words are difficult to find.
WARM EMBRACE WREATH
£70.00
Large heart-shaped floral funeral tribute composed of two contrasting yet harmonious halves of fresh roses, carefully photographed against a clean white background so every petal is visible. On the left side of the heart, tightly clustered creamy ivory and pale yellow roses form a smooth, almost satin-like surface, their layered petals curling inwards like small, protective embraces. On the right side, equally abundant soft pink roses echo the same rounded shapes, but with a warmer, more romantic tone, reminiscent of evening light slipping across a quiet Plaistow side street. Fine, airy strands of white baby's breath weave gently between all the blooms, with slightly fuller sprays tracing the outer edge and the central dividing line, giving the heart a feathery, haloed outline. The design is meticulously symmetrical, so the two colours meet in a perfectly straight, vertical seam, suggesting the joining of two lives, or the balance between remembrance and gratitude. There is no foliage to distract the eye, only the dialogue between cream, pale yellow, pink, and the delicate mist of gypsophila. This tribute feels both modern and timeless, suitable for resting atop a casket at a Plaistow chapel, for display at a memorial gathering near Barking Road, or for sending as a deeply personal farewell to a loved one. The arrangement communicates love, tenderness, and a quiet, dignified beauty that lingers long after the service has ended.
INFINITY ROSE HEART
£105.00
Displayed against a pure white background, this circular sympathy wreath has a calm, almost ethereal presence, as if it has been captured in a moment of stillness before a service begins. The design is built around generous white Oriental lilies, each bloom opening like a star, with velvety petals curving outward from a soft green center and slender stamens tipped with warm, russet pollen. Some flowers are just beginning to open, their buds still pointed and elegant, creating a natural rhythm of life stages around the ring. Between the lilies, you can see clusters of white lisianthus whose petals are trimmed with gentle purple and lilac tones, adding a whisper of colour that never disturbs the overall sense of purity. Small, creamy buds and occasional miniature roses are tucked in among the ruffled blossoms, giving the wreath a layered, plush texture that feels both refined and tender to the touch. Deep green foliage peeks out from beneath the blooms, like glimpses of shrubs and hedges along the quieter residential streets of Plaistow, grounding the design in nature. The wreath forms a full, unbroken circle of flowers, suggesting continuity, remembrance, and the ongoing bond with a loved one who has passed. Illuminated with even, soft light, the image highlights the careful craftsmanship and thoughtful balance that a seasoned local florist would bring to a funeral tribute, suitable for services at local chapels or crematoria where families gather to honor a cherished life.
ETERNAL AFFECTION WREATH
£80.00
Three freestanding floral letters spelling out "DAD" rest side by side against a clean white backdrop, forming a classic funeral tribute with a gentle, modern freshness. Each letter is built on a pronounced cushion of white blooms - plump chrysanthemums and large white gerbera daisies - arranged so that every face points forward, creating a smooth, cloud-like surface when viewed from the front. Between these white petals, small bursts of sunny yellow flowers, including bright gerbera centres and dainty yellow spray roses, bring a soft warmth that lightens the overall tone, much like a shaft of sunlight over the streets of Plaistow after rain. Rich purple lisianthus and vivid magenta or deep pink spray roses are woven through the design to add contrast and emotional depth, their jewel-like colours hinting at enduring love and cherished memories. Tiny lavender flowers and neat lime-green button chrysanthemums tuck into the spaces between larger heads, giving the arrangement a layered, garden-style texture. All three letters are surrounded and edged with lush, arching fern fronds and deep green foliage, which outline their shapes clearly and provide a natural, almost woodland feel. The tribute sits securely on slim, dark bars that link the letters together, so the word reads easily from a distance during a service. This "DAD" arrangement feels particularly suited to a family farewell at a Plaistow chapel, crematorium, or graveside, offering a heartfelt, handcrafted expression of remembrance, tenderness, and respect from those saying goodbye to a beloved father.
LOVING DAD TRIBUTE
£190.00
A graceful sympathy spray in shades of white and green rests against a pure white backdrop, its asymmetric form drifting diagonally like a quiet breath. Dominating the central cluster are several impressive white lilies, some fully open with broad, satin-smooth petals and softly curved edges, others still in elongated buds that hint at unfolding beauty. Nestled between them, creamy white roses and softly frilled carnations create a layered, cloud-like texture, while white gerbera-style blooms with neat round faces and pale centres add clarity and focus. Fine sprigs of tiny white filler flowers are threaded throughout, lending a delicate, lace-like veil that gently connects the larger blossoms. The arrangement is anchored by abundant greenery: glossy dark leaves that frame the flowers, airy fern fronds that add feathery movement, and rounded eucalyptus leaves in muted blue-green that provide a cool, calming contrast. At the top, slim green leaves are carefully folded and bound, creating a tidy structural line, while from the lower right corner, slender palm fronds fan outward, giving the piece a flowing, contemporary outline that feels both strong and tender. The lighting is soft and even, highlighting each curve of petal and leaf without harsh shadow, allowing the white tones to glow rather than glare. This is the kind of thoughtfully crafted memorial piece a Plaistow family might choose for a farewell at the local cemetery or a quiet service near West Ham Park, its gentle palette and elegant composition offering comfort, dignity, and a sense of enduring peace.
SIMPLICITY SPRAY
£75.00
In this meticulously arranged heart-shaped floral tribute, a tender harmony of approximately three dozen roses speaks volumes of affection and remembrance, lovingly assembled by the hands of a Plaistow florist. Soft pink roses mingle with creamy whites, their velvety petals gently opening to reveal layers of emotion, from quiet gratitude to deep love. Delicate sprigs of pure white baby's breath are woven throughout, infusing the bouquet with a sense of airy lightness and gently bridging the spaces between each bloom. The interplay of pinks and creams, with subtle hints of pale yellow, creates a visual warmth that is both soothing and elegant, echoing the diverse character of Plaistow's welcoming avenues and local parks. This heart, designed with genuine care and floristry expertise, forms a strong yet gentle silhouette, symbolizing everlasting feelings and serving as a comforting presence-whether for a memorial service along Balaam Street or to offer solace and appreciation in a neighbour's time of need. The arrangement's clean lines, bathed in bright and even light against a crisp white background, allow every detail to shine, from the intricate petal structures to the feathery lace of baby's breath. There is both serenity and depth here-a sanctuary of florals that reflects the trust and compassion at the core of the Plaistow community. Perfect for marking significant milestones, offering heartfelt condolences, or expressing timeless bonds with loved ones nearby.
DEAREST ONE HEART
£130.00
An elegant sympathy cushion photographed on a plain white background, carefully constructed to comfort and to honour. The rectangular pillow is entirely covered in tight clusters of small white chrysanthemums, their compact heads creating a soft, tactile surface that suggests peace and rest. A pale lime-green pleated ribbon frames the shape, the satin folds giving a delicate formal edge that reads like a handmade trim. On the upper left a naturalistic spray forms the focal point: two white Oriental lilies fully open, their prominent yellow stamens visible, alongside a poised closed lily bud, with rich burgundy spray carnations interwoven for depth and solemn colour. Behind these blooms, varied green foliage-feathery ferns and broader glossy leaves-builds a lush backdrop and a subtle green perfume. From the left cluster a single arching strand of green salal or fine bear grass curves gently toward the right where it culminates in one deep red rosebud, tucked softly on the pillow's surface and suggesting enduring affection. The composition is balanced, the textures intentional, and the overall palette-white, deep red, soft green-reads as purity, remembrance, and comfort. As Plaistow Florist serving Plaistow and surrounding Newham neighbourhoods, we craft this style of tribute for local funerals and memorials; it is designed to lay beside a coffin or rest on a remembrance table, conveying quiet condolence and dignity with traditional floral workmanship and attention to scent, line, and proportion.
EXPRESSION OF LOVE CUSHION
£135.00
An expertly arranged memorial piece from a Plaistow florist, spelling DAD in substantial, three-dimensional block letters crafted entirely from compact white chrysanthemums or spray carnations that create a uniformly soft surface. Each letter is neatly edged with a ruffled, dark green satin ribbon or tightly clipped foliage, which provides a crisp, elegant outline against the white blooms and helps the lettering read clearly from a distance. Thin, dark green metal support bars run horizontally behind the letters, visible only as slim lines that subtly connect and stabilise the composition for chapel or graveside display. On the upper left curve of the first D sits a radiant cluster of warm, golden-yellow roses-about three to four fully opened blooms-accompanied by small white freesia or gypsophila and fresh green leaves; from this cluster two delicate green stems reach diagonally toward the centre, drawing the eye across the A. The central A is adorned low on its left stem with two dramatic deep purple calla lilies whose smooth, sculptural forms add a note of solemn elegance, surrounded by small white filler blooms and glossy foliage. The final D mirrors the first, with an identical yellow-rose cluster on its upper right curve. The composition is photographed in soft, neutral light that highlights texture and colour-an arrangement intended to convey comfort, honour and the quiet dignity of farewell, suitable for services across Plaistow, Upton Park and neighbouring Newham chapels.
FOREVER CHERISHED DAD TRIBUTE
£165.00
Crafted with the care you'd expect from a neighbourhood florist around Plaistow station, this memorial piece spells DAD in three-dimensional capital letters, each formed from a tightly layered mass of immaculate white chrysanthemums. The texture reads soft and pillowy, the individual florets creating a continuous white plane that suggests serenity and peace. A pleated emerald-green ribbon trims every outer and inner edge, the colour of deep lawns and the city's pocket parks, providing a crisp, comforting outline that highlights the shape of each character. The letters are joined by a subtle, dark green horizontal support behind them, giving the tribute a steady, composed profile suitable for display at a service or graveside. Each letter carries a deliberate accent cluster of rich magenta roses - some in tight bud, others showing velvety petals unfurling - paired with sprays of white freesia and compact dark-green foliage. The first D is graced with a cluster at the upper left curve, the A with a petite grouping nestled in the lower central V, and the final D mirrors the first with its cluster on the upper right curve. There is a gentle contrast between the pure whites and the vivid rose tones, intended to read as love and remembrance. In the soft studio light familiar to Plaistow Florist at our shop near Plaistow Market, the arrangement's lines and colours are clear and composed, offering a dignified, personal tribute for a father, and suitable for local delivery across Plaistow, Upton Park and nearby Newham communities.
GRACIOUS DAD TRIBUTE
£155.00
A carefully composed memorial piece spelling MUM in bold, interlinked capital letters, set against a clean white backdrop that highlights every floral detail. Each letter is densely covered in pristine white chrysanthemums; the tiny, layered blooms form a uniform, cushiony texture that looks almost like carved snow, yet breathes a soft, green-sweet perfume when viewed up close. The perimeter of each letter is finished with a softly ruched light-pink ribbon that frames the white with a hint of tenderness - a subtle nod to maternal warmth. A dark green support frame is visible between the letters, discreetly anchoring this standing tribute so it can be displayed upright at a service. To introduce colour and focal points, three composed clusters of accent flowers have been placed with intention: at the shoulder of the first M, the hollow of the U, and the shoulder of the final M. Each cluster features deep fuchsia roses in varied opening stages, feathery green foliage such as fern fronds, and little coral-hued hypericum berries that provide a lively textural contrast. The overall mood is restrained, respectful and lovingly appointed - ideal for a funeral, memorial or graveside tribute. As Plaistow Florist, we often create pieces like this for families arranging services near Plaistow Park, Plaistow tube or the East London Cemetery, offering the option of careful local delivery and placement with attention to scent, scale and the comfort these colours bring.
FOREVER ADORED MUM TRIBUTE
£155.00
A reverent, expertly made sympathy tribute forms the letters D-A-D in bold, block capitals, each letter completely covered in a dense, cushion-like blanket of small white chrysanthemums. The chrysanthemums' delicate petals create a uniformly soft surface that seems to glow under soft studio light, while an emerald green pleated ribbon crisply traces the outer edges of each letter to heighten definition and add cool contrast. Each letter is embellished with a focused cluster of deep red roses and tiny white freesia, their colours and scents providing a comforting warmth against the serene white. The red roses are chosen for their velvety texture and open, layered centers; the freesia lends a delicate, sweet lift and the interwoven dark green foliage gives the clusters a natural, living depth. On the left D and the right D, sprays sit gracefully on the upper curves, while the A carries a similar arrangement near its base, with a slender loop of green bear grass sweeping upwards to connect the composition visually. Behind the letters, discreet dark metal support bars are visible only on close inspection, ensuring the structure's stability at a funeral chapel or graveside. Presented against a clean white background, the tribute reads as dignified and restrained-an intimate floral language saying love, respect and remembrance. Prepared by local hands for families in Plaistow and surrounding areas, this kind of bespoke funeral lettering is a considered way to honour a father's memory; for enquiries and local delivery across Plaistow and Newham, Plaistow Florist (plaistowflorist.co.uk) can advise on size, placement and fresh flower choice.
ENDLESS LOVE DAD TRIBUTE
£155.00
In this detailed image, a thoughtfully composed sympathy basket sits serenely against a crisp white background, the neutral setting allowing every colour and texture in the flowers to be clearly seen. The container is a pale, woven basket with a solid, curved handle arching overhead, evoking a sense of being carried with care to a farewell service in Plaistow or along the quieter streets towards West Ham Park. From this basket, the flowers rise in a rounded, abundant mound, yet the design remains gentle and composed. At its visual centre, a single creamy white rose opens in even, velvety layers, a classic symbol of purity and remembrance. Two rich purple calla lilies, almost burgundy in depth, lean gracefully nearby, their sculpted, trumpet-like forms lending a dignified, almost ceremonial feel. Scattered throughout are delicate clematis-like blooms in soft lavender and pale lilac, each one with a small yellow centre that catches the light, suggesting tiny stars within the design. Sprays of small yellow blossoms, similar to alstroemeria or freesia, weave between the larger flowers, adding soft warmth and texture without disturbing the calm mood. On the right edge, a single magenta gerbera daisy stands out with its bold, daisy-shaped face and slender petals, offering a quiet hint of joy and a reminder of brighter days. All of this is anchored by a generous bed of lush greenery, including broad, glossy leaves and lighter, feathery sprigs that spill to the edges of the basket. The mixed foliage provides structure and softness, framing the blooms and creating gentle shadows that add depth. Designed with the sensitivity of an experienced local florist, this funeral basket feels appropriate for expressing sympathy, celebrating a life well lived, or offering comfort to a Plaistow family during a difficult time.
