This heartfelt cross arrangement, photographed from a slight overhead angle against a plain white background, combines bold structural foliage with tender, pale blossoms to create a composed sympathy tribute. Broad, glossy green leaves form the cross's framework - their smooth surfaces and prominent veins arranged deliberately to emphasise the central meeting point and the extended arms. Around that intersection, generous clusters of creamy ivory and pure white lisianthus are placed for their ruffled, layered texture, supplemented by small white chrysanthemum sprays that introduce a friendly, rounded intricacy. Throughout the floral band, delicate lavender-toned limonium or tiny aster sprays appear as starry accents, their pale purple hue offering a soft counterpoint to the whites. The arrangement includes wisps of fine green filler foliage that knit the flowers into the leaf base and add a subtle sense of motion, as if a light breeze had passed. Lighting is even and gentle, illuminating the petals' soft translucence and the leaves' polished sheen, creating a quiet, spiritual radiance appropriate for a funeral chapel or a memorial service near Figges Marsh or London Road in Mitcham. The scent is imagined as faintly green and clean, reinforcing the arrangement's understated dignity. Balanced between the permanence of the glossy leaves and the ephemeral grace of each bloom, this piece embodies consolation and hope, a floral gesture crafted to help hold a family's remembrance with compassion and skill.

A solemn, carefully constructed floral cross photographed against a plain white backdrop and seen from a gentle overhead angle, the image emphasising the clean, sacred silhouette. The cross is built on a foundation of large, glossy tropical leaves - broad Ti-like foliage whose deep green colour and visible veins form the strong horizontal and vertical arms. At the heart and running along each arm, tightly clustered blossoms create a soft, reverent focal band: ruffled white and creamy lisianthus with their layered, papery petals, interspersed with small, rounded white chrysanthemum sprays that add bright points and a cushion-like texture. Scattered among the white blooms are sprays of tiny, star-shaped lavender-lilac flowers - delicate limonium or small asters - which give a quiet, cool contrast and gentle depth to the arrangement. Fine green filler foliage is woven through the clusters, lending an overall natural softness against the sleek leaf base. Light falls evenly across the composition, picking out the waxy sheen of the leaves and the subtle translucence of the lisianthus petals, suggesting a calm, overcast morning light that suits a solemn occasion. The scent, if imagined, would be green and barely-there, a whisper of fresh cut stems rather than fragrant perfume. This piece reads as a dignified sympathy tribute - the Christian cross shape symbolising faith and remembrance - appropriate for a funeral service, church on Cricket Green, or graveside ceremony in Mitcham. The arrangement balances structural strength and delicate beauty, offering a comforting, composed expression of condolence for family and friends gathered to remember a loved one.

    I was worried that the flowers wouldn't be delivered on time thus I called Handy Flowers to check the progress of my order. They contacted the couriers and told me when the flowers were expected to be delivered. Very professional service!
