A refined funeral floral sheaf lies diagonally against a clean white background, its form flowing like a gentle river of petals from a generous cluster of blooms at the top left to a delicate, tapering end at the bottom right. The focal point is a group of white oriental lilies, their large, trumpet-shaped flowers open in graceful arcs, with creamy petals that curl slightly at the edges and reveal soft yellow-green stamens. Nearby, several tightly closed lily buds stand tall, hinting at flowers still to come and the continuation of cherished stories. Threaded between the lilies are sprays of white lisianthus, many with subtle lavender or pale purple outlines at the petal edges, as if brushed with evening light. These smaller flowers, along with their unopened buds, lend the arrangement depth and a feeling of gentle movement. The base is formed from a rich mix of greenery: wide, glossy, dark green leaves create a calm, solid backdrop, while slender palm fronds stretch outward, particularly from the right side, mirroring the sweep of branches you might see along Barking Road or near Plaistow Park. Some leaves are carefully curled into elegant loops, adding a modern, crafted touch that speaks to the hand of an experienced florist. The colour palette of white, cream, soft lavender, and deep green conveys tranquillity and remembrance, making this arrangement suitable for a casket, a memorial table, or a graveside service for families across Plaistow who wish to express sympathy with quiet grace.
SERENITY SPRAY
£75.00
Displayed on a crisp white background, this substantial red funeral spray appears almost to drift diagonally across the space, wider at the upper left and gently narrowing to a fine point at the lower right. The composition creates a graceful, cascading teardrop that feels both deliberate and naturally flowing, like a quiet procession. At its heart are numerous deep red roses, fully opened so that each layered petal reveals its velvety texture and rich, wine-red tone. Their classic form gives the arrangement a deeply traditional feel. Interspersed among them are clusters of brighter red spray carnations, their ruffled, feathered petals adding movement and depth, echoing the small, thoughtful details that local families in Plaistow often request when commemorating a loved one. The flowers are cradled by an abundant base of foliage: broad, dark green leaves create a dense, supportive bed, while soft, rounded eucalyptus in a muted silvery green threads through the design, cooling the palette and adding a gentle, calming presence. From the lower right edge, delicate tendrils of light green trailing foliage extend outward, softening the outline and enhancing the sense of flow, as though the flowers are quietly cascading toward the edge of the frame. The lighting is even and gentle, picking up the satin sheen on the rose petals and the matte texture of the leaves without harsh shadows. This refined casket spray, the sort of design Florist Plaistow might create for services held near Newham cemeteries or local churches, conveys a message of deep respect, lasting love, and dignified farewell.
DEEP AFFECTION CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY SPRAY £300
£300.00
Set against a clean white background, this graceful funeral sheaf stretches diagonally from top left to bottom right, forming a soft crescent that feels like a final, tender embrace. The focal blooms are dramatic Stargazer lilies, their star-shaped petals glowing in deep fuchsia with white edges and fine burgundy speckles, some fully open, others still in bud with hints of pink and green. Tucked between them are bright magenta gerbera daisies, their neat, circular faces adding a cheerful yet respectful burst of colour, while white roses in bud and partially opened form offer a more contemplative, timeless note. Ruffled white carnations bring a gentle, cushion-like texture, symbolizing affection and remembrance, and small white daisy-style flowers weave lightly through the arrangement, adding points of brightness and innocence. Around the blooms, a rich collar of foliage shapes the spray: dark, glossy leaves form the backbone at the bound stem end, feathery fern fronds soften the edges, and long, blade-like green leaves fan outward and trail towards the lower right, enhancing the sense of movement and flow. The composition feels tranquil and carefully considered, as if arranged by a skilled local florist preparing flowers for a farewell gathering near Plaistow station or a quiet service close to Balaam Street. The interplay of strong pinks, calm whites, and verdant greens creates a tribute that is both expressive and restrained, an elegant choice for offering condolences and support to families throughout Plaistow who wish to honour a life with beauty and grace.
SPECIAL THOUGHTS SPRAY
£75.00
Set against a clean white backdrop, this elongated teardrop funeral spray appears as a gentle flow of pink and white blossoms drifting on a bed of deep green leaves. Soft pink roses, some still cupped and others fully open, are arranged in natural clusters, their spiralled petals creating an impression of tenderness and enduring love. Interwoven among them, fluffy white carnations and spray carnations bring a cloud-like texture, their frilled edges catching the light and softening the overall design. The flowers rest on a substantial base of foliage: glossy dark green leaves, reminiscent of salal, give the spray its full, sculpted outline, while rounded, silvery eucalyptus leaves add cooler accents and a sense of calm. From the tapered point of the arrangement, delicate trails of dark green ruscus extend outward like a quiet sigh, accentuating the teardrop form and adding a graceful, flowing movement. The composition is thoughtfully balanced, fuller and rounded at the top, then gradually narrowing toward the tip, suggesting both release and gentle farewell. Although the background is simple and studio-clear, you can easily imagine this tribute placed with care at a Plaistow service, perhaps in a small church near Greenway or a funeral home off the Barking Road, where families gather to remember a loved one. The colours are muted yet warm, evoking compassion, solace, and dignity. Every stem has been positioned with intention, as a local florist would do when creating a meaningful sympathy piece, offering a quiet yet heartfelt presence beside the casket or at a memorial.
IN YOUR HONOUR CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
A graceful, asymmetrical sympathy spray in white and green rests against a clean white backdrop, its form flowing diagonally like a gentle breeze moving through a quiet Plaistow street. The composition is designed to be viewed from the front, with a cluster of open white Oriental lilies at its core, their trumpet-shaped blooms bowed slightly, as if in a moment of silent reflection. Around them, creamy white roses and softly ruffled carnations nestle together, their petals layered and plush, while simple white Gerbera-style daisies with muted centers add a touch of innocence and clarity. Wisps of tiny white filler flowers weave between the larger heads, suggesting breath, light, and space, so the spray feels airy yet full. Lush green foliage supports the flowers: dark, glossy leaves create structure, arching fern fronds introduce delicate movement, and rounded eucalyptus leaves soften the outline with their grey-green hue. At the top, slim green leaves are looped and bound into a tidy vertical flourish, guiding the eye along the arrangement's spine. From the lower right edge, a fan of slender palm fronds sweeps outward in a dramatic, modern arc, stretching the spray into an elegant, elongated teardrop. The colour palette of snowy whites and fresh greens conveys purity, comfort, and a grounded sense of peace, ideal for a funeral or memorial service in and around Plaistow, whether placed beside a casket in a local church near Plaistow Road or delivered as a heartfelt tribute to a crematorium serving families across Newham.
SIMPLICITY SPRAY
£75.00
Capturing the tranquil spirit of Plaistow, this cascading floral arrangement is a vision of grace and remembrance, stretching in a gentle diagonal across a pristine white background. The design draws the eye with pure white lilies-some blooming to reveal golden-yellow stamens, others poised in bud-offering an air of serenity and hope. Nestled among these are clusters of deep pink and fuchsia roses, each petal delicately opening like memories shared along Greengate Street. Loosely woven between the lilies and roses, ruffled mini white carnations and tumbling green santini chrysanthemums provide lively, mossy texture and visual intrigue, reminiscent of Plaistow's local green spaces. Bright red hypericum berries pepper the arrangement with cheerful bursts, adding natural contrast and uplifting the soft palette. Abundant foliage-broad and glossy, light and feathery-builds a layered backdrop, with palm-like fronds elegantly trailing to emphasize the bouquet's flow, mirroring the movement of a gentle River Lea breeze. The entire piece is suffused with soft, natural light, its fresh colours bright and clear as a new day in E13. Ideal for sympathy, memorial, or funeral settings, this arrangement crafted by Florist Plaistow offers a heartfelt embrace, blending contemporary flair with time-honoured traditions rooted in the local community.
FOREVER ADMIRED SPRAY
£75.00
A refined, cascading sheaf-style funeral spray stretches diagonally across a stark white backdrop, its form narrowing delicately from a full, rounded head at the top left to a tapered point at the lower right. At its centre, around two dozen roses are arranged with deliberate care: half are an intense sapphire blue, the other half a gentle ivory and creamy white. Each bloom appears freshly opened, with layered, velvety petals that curl softly outward, the blues providing dramatic depth while the whites bring serenity and light. Between them, tiny constellations of white baby's breath dot the design, their fine stems barely visible, creating the impression of soft, floating clouds. A generous sweep of foliage anchors the flowers, beginning with broad, glossy dark green leaves that cradle the arrangement and frame the roses like a natural border. From behind, bright green fern fronds rise and fan outward at the upper left, adding feathery texture and suggesting a sense of upward movement. In contrast, long, slender palm fronds arc gracefully down at the lower right, giving the spray its characteristic teardrop silhouette and a gentle sense of flow, as if bowing in quiet respect. Bluish-green eucalyptus-style sprigs peek through the roses, lending a subtle hint of silvery tone and a fresh, woodland feel. Several broad leaves are folded and coiled into decorative green and cream bands, a signature florist's detail that hints at skilled local craftsmanship. The overall impression is one of composed beauty and heartfelt condolence, perfectly suited to a funeral or celebration of life in Plaistow, from intimate gatherings off Barking Road to services near Plaistow Park, where families wish to honour a loved one with blue and white roses that symbolise peace, devotion, and enduring memory.
GENTLE THOUGHTS SPRAY
£90.00
Set against a clean white backdrop, this elegant funeral spray appears almost to float, its colours vivid yet composed. The design is horizontal and gently mounded, starting broader and more compact on the left before flowing into a slimmer, trailing point on the right, echoing the shape of a traditional casket spray. Deep red roses, rich and velvety, rise from the centre, each bud carefully nestled to show its curled, layered petals without overwhelming the eye. Between and around them, numerous white carnations add a soft, cushion-like texture; their frilled edges catch the light, offering contrast and a sense of purity. The blooms are cradled in a generous base of foliage, including glossy dark green leaves that anchor the arrangement, and softer, silvery eucalyptus that threads through like a quiet whisper. Delicate, lighter green stems extend from the right side, giving a gentle, cascading finish that feels almost like a final bow. The overall effect is one of poised remembrance-formal enough for a church or crematorium service in Plaistow, yet warm and personal, as if chosen by someone who knew the deceased well. You can almost imagine the faint fragrance of roses and fresh greenery lingering in the air as this tribute rests on a casket or memorial table, a final expression of love and respect from family and friends gathered nearby.
FOREVER BELOVED CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
A refined sympathy spray of red roses and berries lies diagonally across a crisp white background, capturing the solemn grace of a final farewell. At the top left, the stems are gathered with precision and wrapped in a wide band of glossy green leaf, giving the design a tailored, formal look often favoured for services in Plaistow's local churches and chapels. From this point, the flowers cascade gently toward the lower right, forming a long, tapering composition that resembles a flowing sheaf. The arrangement is dominated by lush, velvety red roses, their petals rich and deep in colour; some blooms are still in bud, hinting at lives interrupted too soon, while others are open and generous, expressing a full, unwavering love. Interspersed throughout are clusters of small, pinkish-red Hypericum berries, each berry round and smooth, offering a lighter, coral-red nuance and a subtle shimmer that catches the light. Supporting this river of red are strong, dark green leaves-likely Salal or Ruscus-layered to create a solid, verdant base. Delicate palm fronds and finer stems of greenery extend beyond the central mass, adding movement and a soft, feathered outline that keeps the tribute from feeling heavy. The white background is uncluttered, allowing every petal, leaf, and berry to stand in quiet focus. Designed with the sensitivity of an experienced local florist, this spray would be fitting for a funeral, memorial, or graveside service in Plaistow, a respectful floral expression of sympathy, remembrance, and courage, ready to be delivered with care to a family in mourning.
EVERLASTING LIGHT SPRAY
£75.00
A dignified white funeral spray is arranged in a long, elegant crescent, positioned diagonally so it stretches from the top left to the bottom right of a spotless white background. At the heart of the design are numerous white and ivory roses, some cupped tightly, others fully open in layered spirals that seem to cradle the light. Nestled among them, clusters of soft white carnations provide a delicate, frilled texture, filling any gaps so the arrangement appears luxuriously full yet never heavy. The flowers sit on a lush bed of greenery: broad, cool-toned eucalyptus leaves weave between the blooms, while darker green ruscus and similar foliage trail outwards and down, subtly reinforcing the teardrop form. The greens vary from deep forest tones to soft grey-green, adding depth and movement as they extend from the fuller top section to the more slender, flowing tail. Seen as a whole, the spray feels tranquil and composed, a quiet river of white petals and leaves. The clean lighting and uncluttered background mirror the sense of clarity and peace the flowers evoke. It is the kind of refined tribute a local Plaistow family might send to a funeral at City of London Cemetery or to a memorial gathering near Balaam Street, expressing love, remembrance, and gentle sympathy. Every carefully placed stem suggests the steady, practiced hands of an experienced florist, creating a respectful farewell for someone deeply cherished.
DIVINE GRACE CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
A refined sympathy spray is laid out on a bright white background, its elongated shape flowing diagonally from the upper left to the lower right like a gentle, floral sigh. The design is dominated by a generous gathering of yellow roses, somewhere between fifteen and twenty blooms, each one at a slightly different moment of opening. Some roses remain cupped and modest, while others spread their petals wide, revealing soft, layered whorls of golden yellow that feel both hopeful and soothing, much like a sunbeam breaking through Plaistow's morning clouds over nearby Greenway or Barking Road. Nestled between these roses are tight clusters of small, spherical red berries, likely Hypericum, their deep crimson tones adding a jewel-like richness and a subtle textural contrast against the smooth petals. A bed of dark green foliage forms the backbone of the spray, with broad, glossy leaves overlapped and, in places, folded back on themselves to create depth and structure around the bound stems at the top left. From the opposite end, long and slender palm-style fronds sweep outward, their fine, pointed leaflets creating a sense of motion that guides the eye along the full length of the tribute. The composition is carefully balanced to lie flat for a funeral service, whether placed in a local Plaistow church or delivered directly to a crematorium nearby. Under soft, even lighting, the colours appear vivid yet tasteful, combining warmth, respect, and a quiet feeling of comfort, making this spray a thoughtful expression when words may not suffice.
HEAVEN'S LIGHT SPRAY
£70.00
An elongated sympathy spray in gentle pink tones stretches diagonally across a clean white background, shaped like a classic teardrop that feels both dignified and tender. At the heart of the design are numerous blush pink roses, many fully open to show their layered, velvety petals, while a few are still slightly cupped, holding the promise of bloom. Their soft pink shades range from pale, almost porcelain tones to warmer dusty rose, creating a soothing, harmonious palette. Nestled between the roses are clusters of light peach-pink carnations, their frilled, ruffled petals giving the arrangement a plush, textured depth, like a delicately quilted blanket of flowers. Dark green leaves frame and thread through the entire spray, some broad and ovate, others narrower and more tapered, giving the piece structure and a sense of movement. From the gently pointed lower end, slender stems and airy greenery extend outward, echoing the natural drift of foliage you might notice walking through Plaistow's quieter residential streets on a still morning. The spray looks carefully balanced-full and rounded at the top, gradually softening as it tapers, suggesting a gentle bow or farewell. There is no visible vase or stand; instead, the design is clearly meant to lie flat, making it appropriate for a casket, memorial table, or graveside tribute. The overall mood is one of quiet compassion and solace, as if the pastel flowers were gathered by a thoughtful local florist who understands the tender moments faced by families in Plaistow as they come together to honour a loved one's memory.
COMPASSIONATE FEELING CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
An abundant bouquet of approximately two dozen long-stemmed roses in a muted blush pink rests diagonally across a pristine white surface, radiating a calm, sympathetic elegance. The roses are closely grouped, filling the lower portion of the image with a cloud of soft colour and texture. Each bloom displays layers of satiny petals, some wrapped tightly in a neat spiral, others just beginning to open to reveal slightly deeper pink and almost lavender shadows within their centres. The petals appear smooth and cool, with gentle curves and occasional subtle ruffles at the edges, suggesting both freshness and quiet fragility. Rich green leaves frame the blooms, clustering thickly around the stems and adding depth with their deep, natural tone and faint sheen. The stems themselves stretch out toward the upper right, long and straight, forming a strong, supportive foundation behind the delicate flowers. The crisp white background removes any distraction, allowing the viewer to focus solely on the roses and their soothing pastel hues. The lighting is bright but soft, evenly illuminating each petal and leaf without harsh contrast, as though the bouquet were placed under natural daylight in a calm Plaistow home near Greenway or a peaceful chapel off Barking Road. This arrangement feels especially suited to expressing sympathy or offering quiet comfort, a gentle way to say you are thinking of someone in their time of loss. It evokes the tender care of a local Plaistow florist who understands how flowers can speak softly when words feel difficult.
PINK ROSES SERVICE ARRANGEMENT
£90.00
A grand, one-sided funeral spray lies against a bright white backdrop, its shape gently tapering from a full, luxurious heart of red blooms into a more slender point, evoking the curve of a teardrop. In the centre, velvety red roses mingle with rich, frilled carnations, their layered petals overlapping to form a plush carpet of crimson. Here and there, bold red gerbera daisies open wide like small suns, their circular faces and darker eyes adding structure and rhythm to the design. Interwoven among these dominant blooms are delicate clouds of small white filler flowers, like baby's breath or fine chrysanthemum clusters, softening the intensity of the red and creating tiny glints of light within the arrangement. Around this vivid core, generous dark green foliage spreads outward: long palm leaves stretch and fan from the sides, giving width and presence, while dense salal- or ruscus-style leaves and a few airy fern fronds build up the depth beneath. A lustrous red satin ribbon is anchored near the top, sculpted into a multi-looped bow, with extended tails that weave downward, echoing the direction of the spray and reinforcing the strong red theme. Every bloom looks freshly cut, as if prepared that morning in a Plaistow flower shop not far from the high street, ready to be delivered to a local funeral service. The overall feeling is one of warmth, dignity, and heartfelt passion, a fitting floral tribute for saying a final goodbye, whether placed atop a casket or displayed near the front of a memorial gathering.
ALWAYS IN MY HEART CASKET SPRAY
£120.00
SINCERITY SPRAY
SINCERITY SPRAY
£70.00
Set against a clear white background, this elongated funeral spray appears as a river of flowers, flowing gently from left to right like a final, loving gesture offered in a Plaistow farewell. The arrangement is luxurious and tightly composed, with no harsh gaps, only layers of soft petals and greenery in harmonising shades of red, pink, white, and purple. Bold red lilies, with wide, star-shaped blooms and slightly recurved petals, rise above the other flowers to create striking focal points that suggest strength, courage, and enduring love. Around them cluster creamy white, blush pink, and faintly lavender-tinted roses, some just beginning to open, others fully expanded, their many petals giving a feeling of tenderness and cherished memories. Between the roses, pale pink carnations with delicate, frilled edges and compact white chrysanthemum sprays help build volume and texture, softening the stronger colours. Here and there, spiky blue-purple thistles and little tufts of lavender-blue filler flowers introduce cool, silvery notes, almost like a quiet whisper amid the richer tones. The entire composition is cradled by dark green leaves and airy, fern-like fronds that reach out beyond the main form, especially at the narrower tip, enhancing the natural, flowing silhouette. The spray feels peaceful yet expressive, the kind of tribute that might rest atop a coffin at a Plaistow funeral service, or be delivered to a local memorial venue, offering comfort and beauty at a time of grief and reflection for family and friends.
CARING THOUGHTS CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
Set against a crisp white background, this elegant funeral spray stretches diagonally from upper left to lower right, like a gentle arc of colour and comfort one might see resting in a quiet Plaistow chapel. The composition is richly layered, with a base of deep green foliage that seems to cradle the blooms. Wide, glossy leaves give structure and depth, while soft, feathery ferns and long, tapering palm fronds drift towards the lower right, enhancing the sense of a natural cascade. Threaded through the greenery, rounded, silvery eucalyptus leaves introduce a cool, contemporary note and hint at a fresh, calming fragrance. At the centre of the tribute, generous gerbera daisies in pale blush pink and vivid fuchsia-magenta stand out, their open faces warm yet serene, offering a sense of gentle remembrance. Around them, classic pink roses with tightly furled petals unfold with quiet elegance, echoing the timeless expressions of sympathy that local families send across Plaistow for wakes and memorials. Ruffled white flowers, likely carnations or miniature chrysanthemums, cluster between the richer tones, providing softness and bright contrast. Scattered among the larger blooms, tiny white daisy-like flowers create a light, dancing texture, giving the spray a feeling of movement and air. Bright red hypericum berries are tucked in small groups along the length of the arrangement, adding a subtle touch of richness and a woodland-like detail. At the upper left corner, the neatly gathered stems are visible, revealing the careful hand-tied construction and skilled floristry behind the piece. Overall, this lush, asymmetric spray conveys deep sympathy, tenderness, and peace, an ideal floral tribute for funeral services and celebrations of life throughout Plaistow and nearby East London communities.
LIGHT IN YOUR HONOUR SPRAY
£75.00
ETERNAL REST SPRAY
ETERNAL REST SPRAY
£70.00
A wide, almost fan-shaped cluster of approximately 24 yellow roses stretches across a crisp white backdrop, creating a serene yet uplifting focal point. Each rose is at a slightly different stage of opening, from tightly curled buds that hint at future beauty to partially unfurled blossoms revealing velvety, golden-yellow petals. The colour is bright but not harsh, more like early morning sunshine over Plaistow's streets than the height of midday, bringing a gentle sense of comfort. Around the blooms, glossy, dark green leaves intermingle with softer, paler undersides, adding depth and a natural, garden-fresh feel, as though the stems were just gathered from a well-kept East London garden. The stems angle away to one side, loosely aligned, giving the impression of a bouquet that has just been set down on a clean table in a quiet room after a funeral or memorial service in the Plaistow area. There are no elaborate props or vases, only the roses and their foliage, allowing the eye to rest on their soft textures and subtle shadows. This arrangement carries a tender message of sympathy and remembrance, the kind of simple yet heartfelt floral tribute that can be delivered to grieving families near Plaistow Park or surrounding neighbourhoods, offering a quiet reminder that even in sorrow, kindness and warmth remain.
YELLOW ROSES SERVICE ARRANGEMENT
£90.00
