A reverent floral cross presented against a clean white field, photographed from slightly above to show the cross's precise geometry and reassuring symmetry. The piece is built on a bed of large, lustrous tropical leaves-think Ti leaves-with a deep green sheen and distinct veining that form the cross's arms and central axis, their waxy texture catching soft, even light. Nestled where the vertical and horizontal meet and flowing along each arm is a composed mass of pale flowers in comforting tones: creamy-white lisianthus with layered, ruffled blooms and delicate buds that unfold like quiet prayers; compact white daisy-like chrysanthemums or miniature spray flowers that create points of gentle illumination; and fine sprays of light purple limonium or asters that lend a soft, starry contrast and a sigh of colour. Sprigs of finer green filler thread through the clusters, adding depth and a natural, meadow-like softness without compromising the clean silhouette. The overall sensory impression is hushed and dignified-the petals suggest a soft, powdery touch, the leaves a cool, smooth strength, and the scent a barely-there, green floral note. This elegant arrangement reads as a thoughtful sympathy tribute, suited to funerals, chapel services, or a graveside gathering in and around Greenwich, where quiet craftsmanship and respectful symbolism are desired. Its composition balances firmness and tenderness, embodying dignity, consolation, and the gentle promise of remembrance.

A solemn, hand-crafted floral cross photographed on a plain white background from a slight overhead angle, its clean presentation emphasising both shape and sentiment. The cross is formed from large, glossy tropical leaves-broad Ti-like foliage with visible veins and a smooth, almost waxy surface-laid edge to edge to create the defined vertical and horizontal arms and the central meeting point. At the heart of the cross and trailing gently along each arm sits a generous cluster of pale blooms in a tranquil palette of soft white, creamy ivory and whispering lavender. Ruffled lisianthus in creamy tones provide the principal volume, their multi-layered petals and tight buds lending an elegant, almost linen-like softness. Interspersed are small, bright white daisy-style chrysanthemums and miniature spray blooms that catch the light and add textured highlights, while fine sprays of lavender-hued limonium or asters offer a delicate starry contrast and visual depth. Scattered threads of fine green filler foliage weave between the flowers, enhancing the natural feel without obscuring the clean silhouette. Soft, even lighting washes the arrangement, bringing out the leaf sheen and the petals' subtle translucence and suggesting a quiet, reflective atmosphere suitable for memorial services or a church setting. The scent, though understated in the photograph, reads as faintly green and floral-an unobtrusive comfort. This composition reads as a dignified expression of sympathy and faith, a peaceful tribute appropriate for funerals, graveside services, or a chapel in Greenwich, gently nodding to local reverence and the enduring symbolism of the cross.

    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!
