BASKETS / POSIES
A carefully composed handwoven basket, pale and rustic, holds an airy bouquet of whites, pinks, and fresh greens that feels both modern and deeply comforting. The arrangement is dominated by immaculate white Gerbera daisies, their broad, luminous petals surrounding striking dark brown to nearly black discs that provide a bold graphic centre in each bloom. Intertwined among them are clusters of powder-pink carnations, their layered, frilled petals suggesting softness and intimate tenderness. Smaller, cushiony white and pale yellow chrysanthemum sprays fill the gaps, creating a plush, abundant texture that makes the basket feel generous and full. Scattered throughout, tiny blue-lavender star-like asters add subtle pops of cool colour and an air of cheerful detail, while the foliage palette anchors everything: round, silvered eucalyptus leaves offer a light, aromatic lift and contemporary shape, and deeper, glossy ruscus trails sweep outward-particularly to the left-giving the design a gentle, flowing asymmetry. The woven handle arcs above like a frame, lending a handcrafted charm that pairs well with neutral interiors or a bedside table. The bright, even light in the photograph highlights the delicate veins in the petals and the soft fuzz of the chrysanthemum clusters, evoking a fresh, just-delivered feeling. Ideal for expressing sympathy with quiet dignity, for welcoming a new baby with soft tones, or for sending a thoughtful thank-you, this basket speaks of careful floral craftsmanship and soothing floral poetry.
ALWAYS HERE FOR YOU BASKET
£50.00
From the vantage of a seasoned Leytonstone florist, this close-up basket feels like a carefully staged moment of joy. A lush cascade of peonies, ranunculus, hydrangeas, and roses spills over a pale woven basket, the colours dancing from hot fuchsia to creamy ivory. The large hot pink peonies flare with luxurious ruffles; the white ranunculus show tight petals, the hydrangeas in pale pink provide cloud-like softness, and the roses-blush to cream-add classic romance. Interspersed greenery, including eucalyptus, lends structure and a breath of woodland fragrance. The white anemones with dark centers punctuate the arrangement with bold, glassy contrast. A soft, peachy hint-perhaps from amaryllis or a trumpet-shaped bloom-glimmers near the edges, adding depth. A white square overlay sits at the center, declaring Florist Choice Basket in script, with ?60 in crisp sans-serif type. The basket itself is rustic yet refined, its handle curling gracefully above the blooms. This image reads as a premium gift, perfect for anniversaries, birthdays, or a thoughtful gesture, and it speaks of craft, care, and the joy of generosity. Florist Leytonstone offers same-day delivery across Leytonstone and surrounding areas, for customers seeking timely, fragrant beauty on demand.
FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY BASKET
£60.00
In this studio photograph, a tasteful funeral flower basket sits quietly on a smooth white surface, backed by a seamless white wall that makes the colours of the flowers truly stand out. The basket itself is a light, creamy weave with a solid, curved handle arcing over the floral display, giving the tribute a soft, rounded silhouette. The arrangement feels freshly made, like a piece crafted in a Leytonstone shop just off the High Road, ready to be taken to a chapel of rest or family home. At its centre, a large creamy white rose opens in gentle spirals, its velvety petals suggesting peace, innocence, and a heartfelt farewell. Two deep purple calla lilies rise on either side, their sleek, trumpet-like blooms curling inward with quiet drama, adding depth and a sense of poised elegance appropriate for a funeral or memorial. Throughout the design, starry clematis flowers in pale lavender and lilac appear, each with a subtle yellow centre, bringing a delicate, almost poetic softness to the overall look. Nestled around them, clusters of small yellow and white trumpet-shaped blossoms, similar to alstroemeria or freesia, introduce bright yet gentle accents, like small moments of joy remembered. On the right edge of the basket, a vivid magenta gerbera daisy leans slightly outward, its radiating petals forming a bold circle of colour that feels like a personal tribute within the larger arrangement. All of these blooms are supported by a rich collar of foliage: broad glossy leaves and lighter green sprigs that create layers of texture and volume. A soft, natural shadow beneath the basket gives the composition depth and realism. The finished effect is one of thoughtful balance and warmth, making this basket a fitting sympathy gift for delivery around Leytonstone, whether near Hollow Ponds, Grove Green Road, or the surrounding E11 streets.
TREASURED MOMENTS BASKET
£65.00
A gently lit studio image captures a refined sympathy flower basket, its soft hues and textures standing out against a pure white background. The basket is a light, neutral wicker in beige or off-white, neat and rectangular with softly curved corners, topped by a simple handle that spans the arrangement in an even arc. Inside, the flowers are packed generously, forming a rounded, almost cloud-like dome of blooms. At the heart of the design are large, creamy white roses, fully opened to reveal layered, velvety petals that evoke tenderness, quiet sorrow, and love that lingers. Woven delicately between these roses are star-shaped clematis blossoms in pale lavender and periwinkle, their pointed petals surrounding yellow-green centres that glow subtly, lending the composition a touch of light similar to a gentle sunrise over Wanstead Flats near Leytonstone. Surrounding these standout flowers, clusters of small, white and soft yellow freesia-like blooms and airy white filler flowers, likely lisianthus, add fine detail and softly ruffled edges, with some buds still closed, suggesting stories not yet finished. The stems disappear into a bed of lush greenery: deep, glossy leaves and lighter green sprigs that create contrast and frame each bloom without overwhelming them. The overall colour scheme is cool and soothing, ideal for a funeral service, a wake in a Leytonstone home, or a memorial where quiet reflection is central. The arrangement feels like the work of an experienced local florist, designed to speak gently of support, remembrance, and hope in the midst of loss.
PEACE & PURITY BASKET
£65.00
This image shows a beautifully balanced sympathy basket, designed with the quiet elegance that so often brings comfort at a funeral or memorial service. The basket is made from light, natural wood, its slats curved into a soft oval form that sits gently elevated on four small feet. A smooth, cream-toned handle arches over the arrangement, not dominating but framing the flowers below like a protective curve. Inside, the blooms rise in a compact, domed shape, densely gathered so that petals, not stems, are what the eye is drawn to. Several creamy white roses are positioned across the top and sides, their velvety petals carefully opened to full bloom, creating soft focal points that suggest serenity and loving remembrance. Around them, deep red carnations gather in rich clusters, their ruffled, layered petals catching the light and bringing a warmth that speaks of affection and respect. Softly variegated carnations in white and pale pink, sometimes tinged with red along the edges, weave between the stronger hues, lending a gentle, tender note. Between the larger blooms, smaller white flowers-similar to freesias-rise on slender stems, their open, bell-shaped heads adding a sense of delicacy and quiet fragrance. A generous bed of dark, glossy leaves anchors the arrangement, while upward-reaching, feather-light fronds, reminiscent of asparagus fern, soften the outline and introduce a natural, garden-like movement. Set against a pure white background, each colour and texture is clearly defined, highlighting the care taken in its creation. The overall effect is one of respectful calm, the kind of tribute you might see resting by a coffin in a Leytonstone chapel or laid thoughtfully at a graveside near Whipps Cross, offering sympathy, support, and a touch of beauty in a difficult moment.
REMEMBRANCE BASKET
£60.00
Against a seamless white backdrop, this domed bouquet feels like a snapshot of a flourishing garden in Leytonstone, artfully composed with a florist's practiced hand and an eye for the subtle shifts of colour you notice walking from the station towards Bushwood. The heart of the arrangement is filled with generous garden roses in soft pink, buttery yellow, and delicate peach, each bloom layered with velvety petals that spiral outwards, some fully open, others still gently cupped to give the bouquet a sense of movement. Between the roses, slender-petalled clematis flowers in white and pale lavender spread their star-shaped blooms, each centered with a bright yellow heart that introduces a flicker of light and grace. Rising from within this lush softness, blue eryngium-sea holly-injects structure and drama, its spiky, metallic-blue flower heads and bristling collars offering a contemporary contrast, almost like sculptural accents placed carefully among the petals. Weaving between these focal points are deep purple lisianthus, from tight, ruffled buds to partially opened blossoms, adding velvety richness and gentle shadows that invite the eye to explore. Bright red hypericum berries peep out here and there, their rounded, glossy forms giving playful bursts of colour that echo the joy of a celebration shared in a Leytonstone café. The bouquet rests in a cradle of mixed greenery: broad, glossy leaves provide a solid, verdant base, while finer, fern-like stems and discreet burgundy-tinted foliage wind between the blooms, softening the edges and adding visual depth. Illuminated by soft, even light, every texture-from the smooth berries to the intricate veins in the leaves-is visible, making this arrangement ideal as a centrepiece for a family gathering, a warm get-well gesture delivered locally, or a refined thank-you gift that speaks in flowers rather than words.
ETERNAL MEMORY POSY
£100.00
This top-down view presents a classic, hand-tied round bouquet composed almost entirely of white and cream blooms, arranged with the precise, unhurried care of an experienced florist. Prominent white oriental lilies open wide, their trumpet-shaped petals smooth and slightly reflective, with pale green stamens and a delicate dusting of pollen at their cores. Interspersed are numerous cream and ivory roses, captured mostly as tight buds or in the early, romantic stages of opening - their layered petals forming velvet-soft spirals that contrast the lilies' broader planes. Clusters of Baby's Breath (Gypsophila) weave through the display, lending an ethereal, cloud-like texture that fills gaps and lifts the overall composition. Around the edges, small fresh green leaves peek out, their cool tone intensifying the bouquet's whiteness and giving the design a garden-fresh finish. The bouquet reads as both formal and intimately handcrafted, suitable for a bride walking from Leytonstone Station toward a nearby church or for a peaceful sympathy gesture delivered to a home close to Whipps Cross Road. You can almost sense the scent: a gentle, sweet lily perfume underscored by the warm, honeyed note of fresh roses. Prepared by a local hand - Florist Leytonstone - this arrangement conveys timeless grace, quiet celebration, and the soft optimism of new beginnings, with a presentation that feels refined yet approachable for deliveries within Leytonstone and neighbouring streets.
COMPASSION POSY
£90.00
A sumptuous hand-tied bouquet, glistening against a pure white background, showcases lilies, roses, and clouds of baby's breath in a composition that feels at once romantic and contemporary, much like the homes and cafés around Leytonstone. The bouquet is rounded and generously full, dense with blooms that nestle closely together, giving no sense of emptiness. White lilies dominate the structure, their trumpet-like petals elegant and gently arched, some open wide to display their pale centres and stamens, others kept in sleek green buds suggesting fresh longevity. Intertwined with these are clusters of pastel pink roses and creamy ivory roses, petals layered in soft spirals that range from tightly closed buds, rich with potential, to fully opened flowers that seem to radiate warmth and affection. Deep fuchsia and magenta Oriental lilies, recalling classic Stargazer types, punctuate the arrangement with jewel-toned drama, their darker speckling and bright golden stamens adding intensity and focus. All around, fine stems of white baby's breath weave delicately between the larger flowers, casting a light, cloud-like haze that softens edges and adds a sense of airiness. Glimpses of green leaves and stems peek out between blossoms, hinting at a garden origin and enhancing the natural feel. The lighting is bright and even, picking up the subtle gloss of lily petals and the velvety texture of the roses, inviting you to imagine the soft fragrance drifting through a Leytonstone townhouse near Hollow Ponds or a cosy flat close to Bushwood. This bouquet feels made for milestone celebrations, wedding mornings, or as a thoughtful, uplifting surprise arriving by local flower delivery.
CHERISHED MOMENTS POSY
£90.00
When I look at this rounded floral cushion I think of a gentle morning in Leytonstone, where soft light catches petals and the scent of freesia hangs delicately in the air. The arrangement centres on full-faced pink roses-a mix of deeper salmon tones and lighter blush varieties-each rose presenting layered, velvety petals that open outward like quiet exhalations. Scattered among them are clusters of pristine white freesia: some bells fully opened, exposing pale yellow stamens, others tightly furled, promising to unfurl in the hours to come and lending vertical punctuation to the otherwise domed silhouette. The greens are abundant and textural, with glossy Ruscus or Salal leaves creating a rich backdrop while variegated Pittosporum edges add a crisp, creamy contrast that lifts the palette. No stems are visible; the blooms sit together in a dense, formal shape that feels both composed and intimate. The photographer's soft, diffused light reveals petal veining and the tender softness of the spray roses tucked throughout. As a florist working in Leytonstone I often recommend this composition for quiet celebrations-new baby visits, gentle birthdays-or as a respectful sympathy piece for services near Epping Forest or a small family gathering around Leytonstone High Road. Fresh, fragrant, and thoughtfully arranged, it communicates warmth, calm and quiet affection.
HEARTFELT SYMPATHY POSY
