Photographed against a bright white background, this dignified sympathy spray takes on a graceful, diagonal form, broader at one end and narrowing to a refined, pointed tip. The central focus is a line of white oriental lilies, each bloom at a different stage of opening. Some lilies are wide and open, with broad, softly curved petals that create a star-shaped silhouette, while others are partially opened or still encased in sleek buds, symbolising memories unfolding over time. Their pure white petals have a subtle sheen, catching the light in a way that suggests both fragility and strength. Twined gently among the lilies are sprigs of lisianthus, their smaller, cup-like flowers layered and slightly ruffled, many with delicate lavender edging that introduces a soft, almost whispered colour, reminiscent of early morning skies above New Eltham station. Small lisianthus buds and slender stems enhance the sense of depth and movement. Beneath and around the blooms lies an artful arrangement of greenery. Large, dark green leaves provide structure and weight, while some are folded or rolled to create gentle curves that echo the spray's overall shape. From the outer edge, fine palm-style fronds and long, linear leaves reach outward, extending the line of the tribute and adding a feeling of gentle expansion, like a final embrace. The composition has been crafted with the sensitivity of an experienced New Eltham florist, used to helping families choose the right farewell flowers. Intended for use as a funeral spray on a casket or display stand, this piece speaks of purity, remembrance, and peace, offering a quiet yet eloquent expression of sympathy.
SERENITY SPRAY
£75.00
Against a clean white background, this large red casket spray is shown in full, its flowing shape and rich tones capturing the solemnity of a final farewell. The arrangement is crafted in a substantial teardrop form, broad and weighty at the top left and narrowing to a gentle, elongated point at the lower right. At its heart, velvety deep red roses dominate, each bloom fully open and displaying spiralled petals that convey a sense of timeless romance and profound respect. Nestled between the roses are clusters of red spray carnations and full carnations, whose ruffled, feathered petals lend a softer, more textured feel to the design. The pairing of the smooth, rounded rose heads with the more intricate carnation blooms creates a tapestry of crimson shades, from darker, almost wine-red blossoms to brighter, vivid scarlets.   

Anchoring the flowers is a lush selection of greenery. Broad, dark green leaves form the structural base, outlining the classic spray shape and offering a deep, cool backdrop for the warm red tones. Scattered through the arrangement are rounded, silvery eucalyptus leaves, adding a muted green-grey that breaks up the intensity and introduces a sense of calm. At the narrower end, lighter green trailing foliage extends outward and downwards, giving the arrangement a gentle, cascading movement reminiscent of branches dipping toward the ground in a quiet corner of Avery Hill Park.   

The overall mood is reflective and composed, as if crafted by an experienced New Eltham florist who understands how flowers can speak when words falter. This tribute would be fitting for a funeral or memorial service in and around New Eltham, resting on a casket or placed by a photograph, offering a visual expression of love, remembrance, and heartfelt sympathy.
DEEP AFFECTION CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY SPRAY £300
£300.00
On a clean white backdrop, a thoughtfully arranged sympathy sheaf stretches diagonally from top left to bottom right, its tapered form evoking the curve of a gentle cascade. Dominating the centre are several striking Stargazer lilies, their petals a rich fuchsia-pink with crisp white margins and sprinkled with burgundy spots, some fully open in star-shaped splendour, others still in elegant, closed buds that blend pale green with hints of rose. Bright magenta gerbera daisies sit alongside, their bold, rounded faces injecting vibrant colour that speaks of cherished memories and enduring affection. Nestled between these vivid blooms are clusters of white roses, many in tight bud form with smooth spiralling petals, suggesting innocence, love, and respect, while ruffled white carnations add an extra layer of softness and depth. Tiny white daisy-like filler flowers are dotted throughout, forming a delicate veil that links each bloom. The arrangement is anchored by lush greenery: broad, dark green leaves create a strong structural backdrop, fine fern fronds introduce lightness and texture, and long, narrow leaves sweep gracefully outward and downward, accentuating the spray's elegant line. The visible bound stems at the top left hint at fresh, hand-tied craftsmanship, as if this tribute has just emerged from a New Eltham florist's workbench near the station or Avery Hill, ready for same-day delivery to a local church or crematorium. Overall, the spray exudes a calm, dignified beauty, combining vivid and serene tones to offer comfort and convey heartfelt sympathy during times of loss in the New Eltham community.
SPECIAL THOUGHTS SPRAY
£75.00
This serene funeral spray, photographed on a pure white background, is crafted in a classic teardrop shape that begins with a broad, rounded head and narrows gently to a fine tip. The central focus is on pastel pink roses, each bloom carefully positioned to create a flowing rhythm along the length of the design. Some roses are fully open, their velvety petals forming generous spirals, while others remain partly closed, capturing a sense of tenderness and quiet emotion. Interspersed among them are clusters of soft white carnations and spray carnations, their frilled petals arranged in compact mounds that add both volume and a cloud-like lightness to the tribute. The blooms are supported by a substantial base of dark green, glossy foliage, likely salal or camellia, which frames the flowers and enhances their gentle colours. Threaded throughout are rounded eucalyptus leaves in muted silver-green, bringing depth, contrast, and a hint of cool freshness, like the air on an early stroll through Avery Hill or along the quiet roads of New Eltham. From the tapered end, slender trails of ruscus greenery extend outwards, introducing a natural, cascading line that suggests a sense of release and farewell. The composition feels calm and contemplative, an elegant choice for a casket or as a central tribute at a service, offering families in New Eltham a floral expression of remembrance, solace, and enduring affection.
IN YOUR HONOUR CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
Displayed on a stark white background, this sophisticated sympathy spray in white and green has been shaped into a graceful diagonal, flowing from a fuller upper left to a gently pointed lower right. At the heart of the piece, stately white Oriental lilies open wide, their smooth petals slightly curled at the tips and encircling pale yellow-green stamens, while a few tall, closed buds stand nearby, giving the design a sense of living progression. Embracing the lilies are creamy white roses, some tight and rounded, others beginning to reveal intricate layers of silky petals, and soft white carnations with their familiar frilled edges that bring a comforting texture. White daisy-like blooms, reminiscent of Gerberas with subtle yellow or soft dark centres, dot the arrangement with delicate highlights. Between all these, fine stems of tiny white filler flowers create a gauzy veil, filling gaps without disturbing the peaceful rhythm of the main blossoms. Lush greenery frames the flowers: deep green, glossy leaves curve around the edges; light, feathery fern fronds introduce a sense of softness; and rounded eucalyptus in muted green-blue adds a soothing, cool-toned contrast. At the top, a cluster of long, narrow leaves is carefully folded and wrapped together, forming an understated vertical accent, while at the base a fan of slender palm fronds sweeps outward toward the lower right, giving the spray a modern, elongated profile. The overall impression is one of quiet strength and purity, a fitting tribute for a funeral or memorial gathering in New Eltham, accompanying loved ones as they say their final farewells in the calm surroundings of local chapels and crematoria.
SIMPLICITY SPRAY
£75.00
Evoking the tranquil settings of New Eltham's leafy parks, this sophisticated cascading funeral spray is a heartfelt composition set against a pristine white backdrop. Flowing diagonally from top left to bottom right, the arrangement showcases the timeless elegance of white oriental lilies. These lilies, some fully open and revealing dazzling golden centres, others tenderly in bud, bring an aura of serenity and remembrance. Amidst the lilies, generous clusters of pink and fuchsia roses bloom, their swirling petals a symbol of affection and fond memory-a theme echoed in the gentle presence of white spray carnations, whose ruffled forms bridge softness and structure. A modern flare is added by lime-green santini chrysanthemums, their spherical shapes drawing the eye and lending a fresh, textural counterpoint that recalls the vibrancy of New Eltham's local gardens. Crimson red hypericum berries, interspersed with the flowers, provide sparkling contrast and cheerful punctuation. The arrangement is lavishly underpinned by a range of green foliage: broad, glossy aspidistra leaves, expertly folded, and feather-light sprigs that suggest the gentle breeze along Footscray Road. Cascading palm fronds at the base amplify the composition's flowing elegance. Carefully curated by Florist New Eltham, this tribute not only expresses sympathy and respect, but also offers quiet comfort through its harmonious blend of classic blooms and modern touches. Each element-colour, texture, and scent-has been thoughtfully tailored for the local community to capture the true spirit of remembrance.

£75.00
GENTLE THOUGHTS SPRAY
GENTLE THOUGHTS SPRAY
£90.00
This image captures a horizontally arranged sympathy spray laid out against a clear white background, the simplicity of the setting drawing full attention to the flowers themselves. The design begins with a full, mounded cluster of blooms on the left and gradually narrows towards a graceful, trailing finish on the right, creating a sense of gentle direction and quiet progression. Rich red roses and crisp white carnations dominate the arrangement, their colours forming a poignant contrast. The roses, in deep crimson tones, show off tight, velvety petals that hold a sense of intensity and depth, while the carnations offer a softer, cushion-like presence with their many ruffled layers. Together they create a meaningful interplay between devoted love and peaceful remembrance. Underpinning the flowers, a generous selection of foliage provides both structure and fullness: wide, dark green leaves form the base, adding weight and definition, while strands of pale, silvery eucalyptus weave gracefully through the blooms, lending a cool, misty hint of colour and a delicate fragrance. On the right side, slender, trailing stems of light green foliage extend beyond the main body of the spray, introducing a natural, cascading effect that softens the outline. The piece is clearly designed to lie flat, ideal for use as a casket spray or placed prominently during a funeral or memorial service in New Eltham. It feels at home in the calm surroundings of local chapels or community spaces near Avery Hill Park, offering families a traditional yet heartfelt floral tribute that speaks quietly of love, respect, and enduring memory during a time of loss.
FOREVER BELOVED CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
A long, elegant spray of red roses and berries is presented at a diagonal on a crisp white background, allowing its full, graceful outline to be seen clearly from the neatly bound stems at the top left to the slender, tapering point at the lower right. Down the centre runs a continuous ribbon of red roses, some tightly closed and others just beginning to open into soft spirals, their velvety petals catching subtle highlights. Between these blooms, clusters of pinkish-red Hypericum berries sit snugly, their small, rounded shapes introducing a delicate texture and a slightly lighter red hue that gives the arrangement depth. Surrounding this floral core is a generous layer of deep green foliage: broad, shiny leaves overlap to form a sturdy base, while feathery palm fronds arc outward from the lower section, lending a sense of motion and emphasising the spray's elongated form. Slender stems of finer greenery are woven throughout, bridging the shapes and adding a fresh, airy quality. At the upper left, the stems are carefully gathered together and wrapped with a smooth band of green leaf, creating a natural, leaf-covered collar that signals professional craftsmanship, typical of arrangements created for families in New Eltham. The pure white background removes any distraction, focusing attention entirely on the interplay of rich reds and layered greens. This classic red rose funeral spray would look at home on a coffin top, at the front of a chapel, or resting near the lectern at a memorial service in New Eltham, quietly expressing love, remembrance, and gratitude for a life lived.
EVERLASTING LIGHT SPRAY
£75.00
An elongated white funeral spray is carefully arranged on a pristine white background, its composition forming a gentle teardrop that flows from a lush, rounded head at the upper left to a narrow trailing tip at the lower right. At the fullest point, a multitude of white and creamy roses are gathered together, some tightly closed and others open wide, showing smooth, velvety petals in soft spirals that seem to invite a lingering look. Interspersed among these classic blooms are clusters of white carnations, their finely fringed petals lending a rich, tactile texture, like delicate ruffles among the smoother rose petals. The flowers emerge from a bed of foliage that has been thoughtfully layered: cool-toned eucalyptus leaves add touches of silvery green, while deeper green leaves provide structure and contrast. Following the natural line of the spray, slender fronds of ruscus and trailing greenery reach out from the tapered end, almost like a quiet stream of leaves guiding the eye. The strictly white-and-green colour harmony creates a sense of calm and purity, perfect for moments of reflection and remembrance. On the simple white background, the spray looks as though it could be laid gently atop a casket at a New Eltham funeral service, or placed near a framed photograph at a memorial gathering by Avery Hill Park. It carries the feeling of a tribute prepared by an experienced local florist who understands how to express sympathy and support through the understated beauty of roses, carnations, and foliage, offering comfort to families as they say goodbye.

£160.00
HEAVENS LIGHT SPRAY
HEAVEN'S LIGHT SPRAY
£70.00
Presented on a bright white background, this elongated sympathy spray forms a flowing teardrop silhouette, wide and lush at the head and gently narrowing into a soft, pointed tip. The design is a harmonious tapestry of soft pink roses and light peach-pink carnations, arranged so closely that the viewer sees almost nothing but petals and the occasional glimpse of deep greenery. The roses, in varying stages of openness, reveal swirling layers of velvety petals in hues ranging from pale blush to slightly deeper dusty pink, each bloom carrying an air of tenderness and remembrance. Between them, clusters of ruffled carnations fill every space, their delicate frills softening the overall texture and giving the arrangement a plush, almost pillow-like quality. A backdrop of dark, glossy foliage anchors the flowers, with broad leaves framing the outer edges and finer, elongated greenery emerging along the sides and lower point, as if the spray is gently cascading downward. The colour harmony of pastel pinks against rich green creates a calming, respectful mood, suited to quiet farewells and reflective moments. One can imagine this floral tribute created by Florist New Eltham and placed on a casket or memorial table at a local service, perhaps near New Eltham station or a chapel along Green Lane.

PINK ROSES
PINK ROSES SERVICE ARRANGEMENT
£90.00
Displayed against a crisp white background, this elongated red sympathy spray has the poised elegance of a carefully composed farewell, echoing the thoughtful calm of New Eltham's tree-lined streets. At its center, deep red roses cluster in abundance, some still in tight bud and others fully open, each velvety petal curving gently and catching the light with a soft sheen. Tucked closely among them, red carnations contribute sumptuous volume, their finely ruffled edges adding a sense of softness and comfort. Red gerbera daisies punctuate the arrangement at intervals, their open, daisy-like faces and darker centers providing a modern contrast that draws the eye along the length of the spray. Tiny white flowers-perhaps baby's breath or miniature chrysanthemums-are scattered delicately between the red blooms, creating subtle points of brightness and adding a feeling of air and space. Near the top, a glossy, satin red ribbon is tied into a generous bow, its long streamers weaving gracefully through the flowers, like a gentle gesture of remembrance from family and friends. The composition is framed by lush greenery: long palm fronds fan outward to create an elegant teardrop outline, while darker, broader leaves and feathery fern-like foliage build depth within the spray, ensuring it feels full and carefully balanced from every angle. The image suggests a freshly made tribute, ready to be delivered to a funeral service near New Eltham Station or a quiet ceremony close to Avery Hill.

SINCERITY SPRAY
£70.00
A long, gently tapering funeral arrangement, designed as a casket spray, is showcased against a pristine white background, as if waiting to be carried from a New Eltham florist's workbench to a nearby chapel. The spray is lush and full, composed of a tapestry of blossoms that blend shades of red, pink, white, and lavender with rich, grounding greens. Striking red Oriental lilies provide the most dramatic accents, their large, starry flowers opening like quiet declarations of love and courage. Around these, roses in cream, pale pink, and soft blush hues appear at various stages of opening, some still tight and modest, others spread wide and generous, suggesting cherished memories gradually unfolding in conversation. Ruffled light pink carnations and clusters of small white chrysanthemums add softness and volume, ensuring no gaps appear and giving the design a comforting, cushioned appearance. Between the more familiar blooms, you can see spiky blue-purple thistles and clusters of delicate, airy lavender-blue filler flowers, which introduce cooler tones and interesting shapes that catch the eye, like the unexpected vistas when walking through Avery Hill Park. Everything rests on a generous foundation of deep green foliage, from bold, glossy leaves to finer, feather-like sprigs that trail gracefully at the edges and along the tapering tip.
