In this heartfelt cross every element is chosen to speak softly of remembrance and consolation. Broad, lustrous green leaves-reminiscent of Ti foliage-compose the cross's framework, their waxy texture and tidy veins creating a protective, unfurling backdrop that anchors the piece visually and emotionally. Where the arms meet, and traveling along each axis, a generous concentration of creamy-white lisianthus forms the main chorus: ruffled, layered blooms whose gentle curves and closed buds evoke tenderness and unfolding memory. Nestled among them are neat, white chrysanthemum clusters, small and bright, bringing delicate points of clarity that catch the eye like recollected smiles. Intermingled lavender-hued limonium or petite asters provide a soft counterpoint that cools and deepens the palette, as if lending a twilight hush to the arrangement. Finer greenery is woven through the flowers, a subtle lace that blurs hard edges and gives the cross a lived-in, natural softness. The composition sits against a stark white field and is lit uniformly, so colours read true and textures-smooth leaf, feathery filler, satiny petals-are easy to imagine. The mood is quietly spiritual and consoling, suitable for a chapel service or graveside gathering in White City, close to familiar landmarks such as Westfield and the BBC Television Centre. This cross is crafted to convey respect and comfort, a dignified floral message of faith, continuity, and gentle remembrance for those honouring a life.

A solemn, elegant floral cross arranged on a pure white background and photographed from a slight overhead angle so every curve and texture reads clearly. The cross is built from broad, glossy tropical leaves-think Ti leaves-with smooth, waxy surfaces and visible veins that form a deep green, structured base for the design. At the intersection and running along each arm, dense clusters of pale florals rest against the verdant canvas: soft, ruffled creamy-white lisianthus with their layered petals and gentle buds, alongside compact, daisy-like white chrysanthemums that add small points of brightness and a comforting, understated cheer. Threaded through these larger blooms are sprays of tiny, star-shaped lavender or pale purple accents, likely limonium or small asters, that lift the composition with a whisper of cool colour and delicate texture. Finer green fillers are tucked between petals, their feathery shapes softening the contrast between leaf and bloom. Light is diffused and even, giving the whites a quiet radiance and letting the greens keep their glossy depth without harsh shadows, as if lit by a soft morning sky above Wormwood Scrubs or the calm of a chapel in White City. The overall mood is one of reverent calm-an arrangement intended for funerals, memorial services, or graveside tributes, conveying peace, respect, and eternal remembrance. You can almost imagine the faint, green scent of the leaves and the subtle, clean perfume of lisianthus as a gentle, consoling presence. This piece demonstrates careful floristry craft: balanced proportions, thoughtful texture, and a dignified palette suited to expressions of sympathy and solace.

    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!
