FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY BASKET
£60.00
A refined sympathy basket sits alone against a pure white background, its light cream woven sides and gracefully arched handle giving the composition a gentle, homely charm. This funeral arrangement, the kind you might see delivered to a Cowley church or a quiet family home, overflows with fresh, carefully chosen flowers. At its heart, a large creamy white rose blooms softly, each petal layered like a whispered prayer, offering calm in the midst of sorrow. Nearby, two deep purple calla lilies rise in sculpted trumpets, their velvety, almost blackened tones lending a sense of solemnity and devotion. Threaded throughout, delicate clematis flowers in shades of pale lilac and lavender open their star-like petals, light yellow centres glowing faintly, bringing a feeling of airiness and spiritual uplift. Sprays of small yellow and white blossoms, similar to freesia or alstroemeria, are woven between the larger blooms, adding gentle touches of brightness that hint at hope and remembrance of happier days walking through Cowley's green spaces and riverside paths. A single magenta gerbera, positioned towards the right of the design, stands out with its bold, daisy-like face, symbolising a vibrant life well lived amid the quieter tones. The flowers are supported by a rich mantle of greenery, including broad, glossy leaves and lighter green sprigs that spill naturally over the rim of the basket, creating a rounded, abundant silhouette. The soft, natural shadow beneath the basket anchors it, enhancing the three-dimensional feel of the display. Altogether, it is a dignified, uplifting floral tribute, suitable for funeral services, memorials, or as a comforting condolence gift across Cowley.
TREASURED MOMENTS BASKET
£65.00
In this detailed funeral arrangement, a light-coloured wicker basket with a neat, woven handle takes centre stage, set crisply against a pure white background that emphasizes its soft, peaceful colours. The basket is filled to overflowing with carefully placed blooms, the design rounded and full so that no gaps disturb the gentle rhythm of the flowers. Dominating the composition, several large, open ivory and creamy white roses appear velvety and tender, their unfurled petals suggesting both vulnerability and enduring affection. Woven among them are exquisite clematis flowers in pale lavender and periwinkle shades, each bloom star-shaped with a bright yellow-green centre, giving the tribute a slightly dreamy, garden-like quality that would not feel out of place in a quiet Cowley back garden near the River Thames. Smaller white and pale yellow freesia-style flowers, some in tight buds, cluster throughout the basket, hinting at a light, sweet fragrance and adding movement and texture. White ruffled flowers, similar to lisianthus, soften the transitions between the larger blooms, creating a cloud of gentle colour. Around and beneath everything, luxurious dark green foliage forms a dense, protective cradle, with shiny broad leaves and finer stems adding contrast and structure. The overall mood is tranquil and contemplative, a basket that would sit beautifully beside a coffin, at a memorial table, or in the family home after a service. Crafted with the care of an experienced Cowley florist, the arrangement conveys sympathy, remembrance, and a quiet promise of comfort to those gathered to say goodbye.
PEACE & PURITY BASKET
£65.00
A serene funeral basket arrangement is pictured against a clean white backdrop, the overall impression one of gentle warmth and dignified farewell. The basket itself is fashioned from pale, natural wood slats, softly oval and slightly raised on discreet little feet that lend stability and refinement. A smooth, arched handle rises from side to side, its light tone echoing the calm mood of the display. Within this frame, the flowers are packed closely together into a rounded dome, creating the sense of a small, abundant garden gathered with care. Creamy white roses sit proudly at the heart of the composition, their velvety petals unfolding layer by layer, as if in a quiet gesture of remembrance. Around them, velvety red carnations bring depth, their ruffled, frilled petals delivering a rich, heartfelt scarlet that suggests devotion and respect. Interspersed are soft pink and white, sometimes speckled carnations, where delicate pink washes and fine red tracings soften the stronger red blooms. Threaded gently among these are modest, bell-shaped white flowers, perhaps freesias, whose slim stems and open throats add lightness and a hint of fragrance. The blooms are cradled in generous greenery: broad, glossy leaves at the base provide structure, while feathery fern or asparagus foliage rises and spills outward, lending movement and a natural, airy feel. Designed with the quiet streets and churches around Cowley in mind, this arrangement feels well suited to a memorial table, a crematorium service, or a family gathering of remembrance, offering a peaceful balance of love, purity, and gratitude in floral form.
REMEMBRANCE BASKET
£60.00
A round, luxuriant bouquet of mixed seasonal flowers is set against a pure white backdrop, its full, domed shape drawing the eye to every layered bloom. The composition is dominated by romantic garden roses in pastel shades of pink, yellow, and peach, each head densely petalled and slightly different in its stage of opening, from tight, promising buds to wide, generous rosettes. Nestled among them are delicate clematis blossoms in tones of white, pale lilac, and soft lavender, their slender, star-like petals framing bright centres that add a subtle sparkle to the arrangement. Bold accents of blue eryngium, or sea holly, rise up like tiny sculptures, their spiky, cone-shaped centres in steely blue giving a modern counterpoint to the softness of the roses. Around them, deep purple lisianthus add velvety richness, with both closed buds and partially open flowers hinting at gentle movement, as though the bouquet has just been gathered from a well-tended garden near Cowley's quiet residential streets. Scattered clusters of shiny red hypericum berries bring playful pops of colour that stand out among the petals. The bouquet is cushioned by layers of varied foliage: broad, lacquered leaves, airy green sprigs, and flecks of darker, wine-toned greenery that create a sense of depth and structure. Subtle shadows beneath the bouquet on the white surface suggest soft studio lighting, highlighting the natural textures and the freshness of each stem. This thoughtfully crafted arrangement feels suited to celebrations in Cowley, from intimate dinners at home to milestone anniversaries, and would make a comforting, elegant gift for get-well wishes or simple everyday appreciation.

COMPASSION POSY
£90.00
A full, rounded bouquet of fresh flowers is captured in sharp detail against a pure white background, as if it has just been lifted from the counter of a trusted Cowley flower shop. At first glance, your mind lingers on the generous white lilies, their long, satin-smooth petals curling back to reveal soft green centers and upright stamens, evoking purity and calm. Clustered closely around them are roses in two gentle shades: creamy white blooms that glow softly in the light, and blush pink roses whose petals deepen in color toward the center. Some roses remain as neat, spiraled buds, while others open wide, creating a tapestry of textures from tight curls to broad, velvety cups. Adding a rich, romantic note, several vivid fuchsia and magenta Oriental lilies, likely Stargazers, unfurl dramatically, their petals speckled with deeper tones and crowned with golden-yellow pollen. Fine sprays of white baby's breath lace through the arrangement like mist, lightening the overall look and softening the transitions between each larger bloom. Hints of glossy green foliage frame the flowers, bringing a fresh, just-cut feeling that calls to mind morning walks through Cowley's leafy side streets and riverside paths. Even though the image is still, you can almost sense the fragrance: that unmistakable blend of lily's perfume and rose's gentle sweetness. The bouquet feels perfectly suited for emotional moments-weddings, milestone birthdays, or a tender gesture delivered to a loved one's door in Cowley, expressing joy, admiration, or quiet devotion without a single word spoken.
