BASKETS / POSIES
A tender, thoughtfully composed basket that balances clarity and softness: several immaculate white Gerbera daisies form the bright heart of the design, their smooth, satiny petals opening to stark dark brown centres that anchor the eye. Nestled close to those central blooms are clusters of blush-pink carnations, their layered, ruffled edges producing a plush, almost textile-like softness that invites a hand to linger. Filler sprays of small white and pale yellow daisy-like flowers-likely chrysanthemums or asters-create a luminous halo around the main blooms, while tiny violet-blue star-shaped flowers peek through, adding delicate contrast and a faint suggestion of perfume. The greenery is abundant and carefully chosen: rounded, silvery eucalyptus leaves provide a cool, modern sheen and a faint herbal scent; deeper, glossy ruscus leaves trail from the left in a gentle cascade, giving the arrangement movement and a natural, unforced asymmetry. All floral elements sit within a pale, woven wooden basket whose warm, artisanal weave and curved brown handle add an honest, handcrafted feel. The lighting is soft yet clear, showing the freshness of each stem and the subtle interplay of textures from the satiny Gerbera petals to the frothy carnations. As a crafted piece for the Catford neighbourhood-familiar to those who stroll along Catford Broadway or pause at the station-this basket reads as a versatile, elegant choice for a birthday, a thank-you, or a quiet moment of everyday kindness, suited to delivery across SE6 and nearby Lewisham.
ALWAYS HERE FOR YOU BASKET
£50.00
From the vantage of a seasoned Catford florist, this overhead view presents a Florist Choice Basket that feels both joyful and thoughtful. The white woven basket anchors the arrangement, its rustic texture contrasting with the satin softness of the blooms. The color story reads like a soft romantic moment: warm pinks, creamy ivories, and bold fuchsia punctuations, with eucalyptus and other greenery lending gentle fragrance and woodland freshness. The star blooms include large hot pink peonies with ruffled caps, clusters of delicate white ranunculus, voluminous light pink hydrangeas, and a chorus of blush and cream roses. White anemones with their dark centers offer drama and clarity, while veins of smaller white filler flowers brighten the composition. The bouquet breathes with movement, thanks to the careful spacing and the way stems rise and fall, so every bloom reads in its own right. The overlay in the center proclaims Florist Choice Basket in a refined script, and the price is shown as ?60 in a bold sans serif, making the offer clear at a glance. This image speaks to the giftable nature of the arrangement, perfect for celebrations or a heartfelt gesture. In Catford and the surrounding area, this piece would suit a birthday, an anniversary, or a note of sympathy delivered with warmth, and can be arranged for same day delivery across Catford, Lewisham, and nearby neighborhoods, ensuring freshness and reliability from your local team.
FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY BASKET
£60.00
In this image, a tender funeral flower basket is shown against a crisp white backdrop, every detail of the design laid open to the eye. A round, light-toned woven basket with a smooth, arching handle cradles the arrangement, its off-white fibres echoing the softness of the petals it holds. At the heart, a single creamy white rose unfurls in layers, its tightly formed centre easing outwards in a spiral that suggests purity and eternal love. Around it, two rich purple calla lilies curve with understated grace, their sculptural, trumpet-shaped blooms adding depth and a quiet, almost spiritual intensity. Scattered delicately throughout, pale lavender clematis flowers extend slender star-shaped petals, their subtle yellow centres drawing the gaze in gentle points of light. Small clusters of yellow and white blooms, reminiscent of alstroemeria or freesia, thread between the larger flowers, adding texture and a whisper of sunshine to the otherwise calm palette. From the right edge, a vivid magenta gerbera daisy emerges, its firm, radiating petals bringing a single, bold accent that feels like a tribute to one unique life. All of this rests in a cushion of lush green foliage: broad, glossy leaves, likely Ruscus, mix with finer, fresher green sprigs to give a sense of abundance and care. A soft, natural shadow beneath the basket grounds the arrangement on the white surface, suggesting a tranquil chapel or remembrance space. It is the kind of thoughtful display a Catford family might choose from Catford Flowers for a funeral service near Ladywell Cemetery or a quiet goodbye close to Rushey Green, conveying comfort, respect, and gratitude.
TREASURED MOMENTS BASKET
£65.00
Set against a simple white background, this light-coloured wicker basket holds a funeral flower arrangement that feels both soothing and refined, as though crafted for a thoughtful farewell in Catford. The basket, in soft beige or white, has a curved handle that frames the flowers like a gentle arch, its woven texture suggesting care and tradition. Inside, the composition is rounded and abundant, dominated by large, creamy white roses that open fully to reveal layered, velvety petals. They introduce a sense of calm purity, the kind of roses often chosen for services near Hither Green or quiet gatherings after a ceremony in central Catford. Between the roses, pale lavender clematis blooms stretch their star-shaped petals, each flower centred with a small burst of yellow-green, bringing a delicate contrast that never overwhelms. Clusters of white and pale yellow freesia-like flowers, some still tightly closed, thread through the design, adding airiness and a hint of sweetness you can almost imagine on the air. Soft white filler blooms, possibly lisianthus, contribute to the cloud-like texture, their ruffled petals catching the light. Around and beneath the flowers, rich dark green leaves spread out, some broad and glossy, others fine and slender, lending depth and structure while highlighting the pastel palette above. The arrangement feels peaceful and quietly hopeful, suitable for expressing sympathy, remembrance, or support to a grieving family in and around Catford. It looks like an arrangement chosen when words are difficult, meant to sit gracefully beside a photograph, on a memory table, or near the coffin, reflecting respect, love, and gentle farewell.
PEACE & PURITY BASKET
£65.00
A softly lit funeral floral basket overflowing with roses and carnations sits against a white background, evoking the quiet pause you might feel walking past a window of Catford Flowers on a still morning. The basket is made from pale, natural wood, gently oval with four small feet and an elegant, arched handle, giving it both stability and tenderness of line. Inside, the flowers form a full, rounded mound that spills slightly over the edge, as though the blooms cannot help but lean forward in sympathy. Creamy white roses open in generous spirals, their velvety petals layered like folded fabric, radiating calm and purity. Around them cluster deep red carnations, their rich, ruffled heads bringing warmth and depth, a symbol of enduring love and remembrance. Some of the carnations are softly variegated, white petals edged with blush pink and crimson, adding a gentle, human imperfection that feels comforting. Between these larger flowers, delicate small white blossoms, similar to freesias, lift their tiny bells on slender stems, hinting at a light, fresh scent. A foundation of dark green leaves, glossy and broad, anchors the design, while feathery fern or asparagus foliage breaks the outline, creating a natural, airy finish. The colour palette is restrained yet expressive: cream, red, soft pink, and deep green, all balancing formality with warmth. This arrangement feels especially suited to a farewell service at a Catford chapel, a commemoration near Ladywell Cemetery, or as a respectful sympathy gift delivered to loved ones, offering a quiet message of presence, comfort, and shared loss.
REMEMBRANCE BASKET
£60.00
Set against a pure white backdrop, this rounded bouquet looks like a small captured garden, crafted with the practiced hands of a Catford florist used to blending colour and texture for local celebrations. The arrangement forms a generous dome, densely packed so that petals and foliage almost touch edge to edge, suggesting abundance without a hint of clutter. Garden roses in dusky pink, creamy peach, and soft yellow spill through the center, their layered petals swirling outwards in romantic curls, some blooms fully open, others just beginning to relax. Among them, star-shaped clematis in white and pale lavender stretch out like little constellations, their golden or pale centers catching the light and introducing a wild, airy note reminiscent of climbing flowers seen in front gardens off Bromley Road. Sharp yet beautiful blue eryngium thistles stand proud within the bouquet, each spiky, metallic-blue head bringing an intriguing contrast to the otherwise soft shapes. Rich purple lisianthus blossoms and buds tuck into the spaces, their silky petals adding a velvety depth that feels both modern and timeless. Bright red hypericum berries dot the design, glossy and rounded, like tiny punctuation marks of joy. Around and beneath the blooms, a bed of lush greenery holds everything in place: broad, polished leaves, fine fern-like fronds, and darker burgundy sprigs that give the arrangement dimension and subtle drama. Soft, even lighting highlights the natural colours and textures, while the clean background keeps every detail in focus. The overall effect is of a thoughtfully composed bouquet, ideal for birthdays, congratulations, or a heartfelt gesture delivered to a home or office in Catford.
ETERNAL MEMORY POSY
£100.00
Seen from directly above, this immaculate round bouquet presents a studied simplicity that speaks to careful floristry. Several elegant white lilies dominate the composition with their wide, trumpet-like petals and pale green stamens, each bloom positioned so its graceful form reads clearly from the aerial perspective. Interspersed among the lilies are many creamy white roses-mostly tight buds and half-open blossoms-whose layered, velvety petals introduce a soft, compact texture that contrasts with the lilies' openness. Wisps of tiny white Baby's Breath nestle into the interstices, creating a cloud-like halo that softens edges and lends a gentle, airy punctuation to the overall mass. Bright green foliage peeks around the circumference, the hint of verdant color anchoring the bouquet and accentuating its circular symmetry. The whole piece sits on a pure white backdrop under soft, diffuse light, allowing subtle creamy undertones and petal details to be easily read. It evokes feelings of purity and calm-equally suited for a wedding down the aisle at a local registry or as a thoughtful gift to mark new beginnings. Crafted with the same care we use at Catford Flowers, this bouquet would travel well for same-day delivery across Catford Broadway, Rushey Green and into Lewisham, carrying a quiet fragrance of lilies balanced by the rose's gentle perfume.
COMPASSION POSY
£90.00
A densely packed, dome-shaped bouquet of lilies and roses is shown against a seamless white background, its colours and textures carefully balanced like a bespoke design prepared in a Catford Flowers studio. Dominating the composition are generous white lilies, their long, graceful petals curving outward to reveal pale pistils and green-tinged centres, some blooms fully open and others still in sculptural bud form. Between these elegant forms nestle clusters of roses in two gentle palettes: blush pink blossoms with a soft, romantic glow, and cream-to-ivory blooms that add a feeling of calm refinement. Each rose shows a different stage of life, from tight, promise-filled buds to wide, velvety flowers whose spiralling petals create a sense of depth and intimacy. Cutting through these pastel tones are dramatic deep pink or fuchsia Oriental lilies, likely Stargazers, with upward-facing petals freckled by darker spots and finished with bold, golden-yellow stamens. These striking flowers act as focal points, giving the bouquet a sense of luxury and theatre, much like a showpiece created for a milestone celebration along Catford Bridge or a special dinner near Mountsfield Park. Layered all around and between the main stems is a fine lace of white baby's breath, its tiny, cloud-like blossoms softening the transitions and making the arrangement appear even fuller and more abundant. Slender green leaves and stems add structure and a gentle frame, while the bright, even lighting highlights every curve, edge, and texture of the petals. The result is a bouquet that visually radiates warmth, devotion, and celebration, suited to occasions ranging from weddings and anniversaries in SE6 to thoughtful congratulations or thank-you gifts hand-delivered across the Catford area.
CHERISHED MOMENTS POSY
£90.00
I picture an early morning in a small Catford garden as I describe this compact, perfectly rounded bouquet of pale pink roses and bright white freesia set against a stark white background. The biggest blooms are classic, full-petalled roses in varying pinks, from deeper coral-tinged centers to soft blush edges; smaller spray roses nestle between them, adding delicate texture and scale. Clusters of white freesia lift the arrangement with slender stems and bell-shaped flowers, some newly opened and fragrant, some still in tight buds that promise a gentle unfolding over days. The foliage is dense and varied: broad, glossy leaves-likely salal or ruscus-create a deep-green cushion, while variegated leaves with creamy margins scatter light across the surface, giving the piece a lively but restful contrast. No stems are visible; the silhouette is a smooth, domed cushion, carefully packed to feel both intimate and abundant. Diffuse daylight catches the velvety rose petals and the waxy sheen of the greenery, suggesting freshness and a recent harvest from a local market stall on Rushey Green. This arrangement reads as a tender, understated celebration piece-perfect for welcoming a newborn, marking a gentle birthday, or brightening a bedside in a Lewisham home-offering a soft scent, a soothing palette, and the sort of quiet elegance expected from a neighbourhood florist serving Catford and its nearby streets.
HEARTFELT SYMPATHY POSY
