This cross is composed with quiet dignity, photographed from a slight overhead perspective on a plain white field so each botanical choice reads like a small prayer. The backbone of the design is formed from large, lustrous tropical leaves-Ti-style, deep green and subtly veined-which create a sculpted, protective frame for the flowers that adorn the arms. Where the arms meet, a concentrated cluster of blooms unfolds: creamy white lisianthus with their layered, ruffled petals and tender buds provide a soft, cloud-like centre, while compact white spray chrysanthemums or miniature roses punctuate the surface with bright, rounded faces. Interwoven are pale lavender sprays of tiny star-shaped flowers, likely limonium or small asters, lending a cool, reflective counterpoint that draws the eye inward. Fine green filler stems weave through the composition, adding feathery texture and a sense of gentle movement against the smooth leaf planes. The lighting is soft and even, bathing the arrangement in a serene glow that enhances the creamy and lavender tones without overpowering them. In tone this tribute is contemplative and consoling-suitable for a chapel service, cemetery placing, or church ceremony-and suggests both permanence and compassion. As a Wennington florist might say, its understated elegance sits well against local places of remembrance by the Ingrebourne and the marshes, where the colours echo morning mist and dewy grass.

A solemn, elegant sympathy cross photographed against a pure white background from a gentle overhead angle, its clean isolation emphasizing thoughtful craftsmanship. The cross is constructed from broad, glossy tropical leaves-think Ti or similar waxy greens-with visible central veins and a smooth, reflective surface that forms the strong horizontal and vertical arms. At the central intersection and flowing along each arm sits an abundant band of blooms in a tranquil palette of soft whites, creamy ivories and pale lavender. The principal flowers are ruffled white lisianthus, their multiple delicate petals and tight buds creating a sense of softness and grace; interspersed are small, rounded white spray chrysanthemums or miniature daisies that add brightness and a compact textural counterpoint. Scattered through the clusters are tiny star-like lavender accents-likely limonium or small asters-providing cool, purple flecks that deepen the composition's calm mood. Finer green filler stems are tucked through the blossoms to lift and separate the sprays, offering gentle textural contrast against the broad leaf foundation. Soft, even lighting bathes the arrangement, bringing out the sheen on the leaves and the subtle cream tones of the lisianthus without harsh shadows, so the piece reads as peaceful and restrained. As a floral tribute often chosen for funerals, memorials or church services, this cross communicates reverence and quiet consolation, evoking hope and enduring remembrance. A florist in Wennington might recommend this design for a graveside or chapel service near the Ingrebourne marshes, where the arrangement's serene colours and natural textures resonate with the surrounding landscape.

    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!
