TRIBUTES
Set against a pure white background, this striking floral cross appears as a deeply considered work of sympathy art, ideal for a North Kensington farewell service or memorial gathering. The cross is shaped entirely from roses, packed so closely that the flowers form a seamless, velvety surface. Large, fully opened deep red roses dominate the design, their petals rich and sumptuous, curling outwards in layered spirals that suggest enduring devotion and respect. Between these, clusters of fuchsia-pink garden roses glow with a softer, almost luminous quality, their slightly frilled petals offering a tender contrast that lightens the solemn palette and hints at cherished, joyful memories. Here and there, smaller rosebuds in matching tones emerge from the body of the cross, adding subtle height and a sense of life continuing beyond grief. Around the entire outline runs a tight, precise border of small white blossoms-possibly spray chrysanthemums, daisies, or petite carnations-that create a delicate, snowy trim, clearly defining the traditional Christian cross shape while infusing the design with an air of innocence and peace. Thin threads of fresh green foliage and discreet green ribbon tuck beneath the flowers, lending structure and a hint of natural movement without disturbing the ordered symmetry. The image is lit with soft, even light, allowing every colour, shadow, and petal edge to be gently revealed. This is the sort of floral tribute a family might have delivered from a trusted North Kensington florist to a church near Portobello Road or along Ladbroke Grove, a gentle yet powerful symbol of faith, love, and remembrance placed by the casket or at the front of the chapel.
SINCEREST CARE CROSS
£115.00
Captured in soft, even light against a clean white backdrop, this heart-shaped floral tribute radiates quiet dignity and tenderness. The entire heart is densely carpeted with pristine white spray chrysanthemums, each tiny flower head nestled so closely that together they form a plush, cloud-like cushion. Their uniform whiteness evokes purity, peace, and the stillness of reflection, much like a calm pause along the tree-lined streets around St Charles Square or Golborne Road in North Kensington. Tracing the outline of the heart is a narrow band of emerald green satin ribbon, precisely folded and secured in place to create a smooth, continuous frame that subtly defines the shape without overpowering it. At the upper left edge of the heart, a dramatic spray of deep magenta calla lilies sweeps diagonally down towards the centre, immediately drawing the eye. Three of these calla lilies are fully open at the top of the cluster, their rich fuchsia petals curling inwards to reveal darker central spadices, while two more blooms extend gracefully downward, partially unfurled as though they are gently bowing. Threaded between the lilies are delicate white freesias or similar petite white blossoms, their slightly ruffled petals adding a lighter texture and suggesting a gentle, sweet fragrance. Surrounding and supporting this focal spray is an arrangement of lush greenery-broad, glossy leaves and fine, feathery fern fronds-that frames the colour and adds a natural, garden-like softness. The entire tribute feels intentionally balanced and composed, the kind of thoughtful memorial piece a local North Kensington florist might prepare for a funeral gathering near Ladbroke Grove, offering bereaved families a refined yet deeply personal expression of remembrance.
ALWAYS REMEMBERED HEART
£95.00
This image shows a striking floral Union Jack, shaped into a rectangular tribute that looks almost like a cushioned flag made entirely of flowers. Deep blue blooms form the background panels and outer edges, their heads set close together so that they resemble a soft, woven fabric rather than individual stems. Across this field of blue, a strong red St. George's Cross runs vertically and horizontally, joined by the diagonal red lines of St. Patrick's Cross, all carefully defined using small, densely clustered red flowers with a rich, saturated tone. Between these red sections, narrow and wide bands of pure white blossoms create the familiar St. Andrew's Cross and precise borders, ensuring every part of the United Kingdom's flag is recognisable at a glance. The tribute is photographed against a clean, white background, which helps the layered crosses stand out, much like a flag seen on a bright day over North Kensington, near Portobello Road or along the quieter residential terraces. The texture is plush and three-dimensional, as if a gentle hand could press into the surface and feel the resilience of each bloom. There are no additional decorations or wording, allowing the patriotic design to speak for itself at funerals, remembrance services, or commemorative gatherings. The overall atmosphere of the arrangement is solemn yet reassuring, its balanced geometry and vivid colours offering a focal point for reflection and shared grief. It feels like a piece created by a florist who understands both the symbolism of the Union Jack and the need for tenderness and respect when marking a final farewell.
PEACEFUL DREAMS CUSHION
£150.00
A poignant heart-shaped floral tribute is shown against a clean white backdrop, the entire interior densely packed with small-headed white chrysanthemums that form a soft, quilted texture, almost like a gentle cushion cradling a memory. The blooms sit shoulder to shoulder, their snowy petals creating a sense of peace and sincerity. Standing out from this serene background, five rich red roses trace a diagonal line from the upper left curve towards the lower right area of the heart. At the top left, three roses are gathered in a focal spray, their velvety petals unfurling in perfect spirals, framed by dark green rose leaves, feathery greenery, and a scattering of dainty white filler flowers reminiscent of freesias or gypsophila. Slightly lower, two further red roses continue the line of colour, visually connected by slender arcs of bright green decorative grass that sweep across the chrysanthemums in graceful curves, adding flow and structure. Around the entire perimeter, a deep green satin ribbon is pleated into a neat border, its subtle shine beautifully outlining the heart and enhancing the contrast between red, white, and green. The arrangement feels composed and reverent, the sort of tribute a family in North Kensington might choose for a funeral at a local chapel or crematorium, wishing to express heartfelt condolences and timeless love. Crafted with care by a neighbourhood florist familiar with the community's traditions, it embodies quiet dignity, respect, and tender remembrance.
BEAUTIFUL MEMORIES HEART
£95.00
This image shows a beautifully crafted floral pillow, designed as a soft-edged cushion of blooms that seems to float against a clean white background. The tribute is built with the care of a seasoned North Kensington florist, its compact, rectangular shape softened at the corners so it evokes a sense of peaceful repose. At its heart are generous roses in an array of pink tones, from rich fuchsia and raspberry to gentle blush, intermingled with creamy pale yellow roses that brighten the palette and add a touch of warmth. Each rosehead is plump and layered, some fully unfurled, others slightly cupped, giving a sense of movement and life. Threaded among them are deep violet and royal purple lisianthus, their velvety petals and bell-shaped blooms adding a serene, almost contemplative depth of colour. Tiny clusters of lavender-toned filler flowers, likely statice or limonium, peek through like soft clouds of mist, filling every space without crowding the eye. Supporting this floral tapestry is a bed of mixed greenery: round, silvery eucalyptus leaves offer a cool, soothing note, while darker, fine-textured foliage provides structure much like the feathers in a down pillow. The lighting is even and gentle, allowing the colours to sing clearly while casting a faint shadow that hints at the cushion's thickness. The overall impression is one of quiet dignity and heartfelt remembrance, ideal for a funeral service in North Kensington, a chapel near Portobello Road, or a graveside tribute that carries the comfort of a final, tender embrace.
HEARTFELT SORROW CUSHION
£95.00
A dignified floral pillow composed almost entirely of compact, snowy-white chrysanthemum heads forms the focal image, arranged with the precision of a seasoned floral craftsman. Each chrysanthemum is placed close to its neighbour until the surface becomes a continuous, cushion-like expanse of white - soft in appearance and symbolic of peace and purity. The tribute retains a rectangular silhouette with softly rounded corners and a gently raised profile, evoking the quiet comfort of a pillow laid to rest. A light, lime-green ribbon is worked around the perimeter in neat pleats, the fresh green edge giving a whisper of hope and a clear visual boundary to the design. Nestled on the top-left is an artful spray of white lisianthus and deeper purple lisianthus or freesia buds, their layered petals and closed buds bringing both tenderness and a restrained pop of colour. Lush fern fronds and dark-green leaves weave through the cluster, adding sculptural texture; a broad green leaf wrap secures the bouquet and conceals the stems with clean, natural lines. Subtle studio lighting casts a soft shadow beneath the pillow, enhancing its three-dimensional presence without detracting from the calm palette. This arrangement is meant as a respectful token for wakes, memorial services or graveside placement, conveying consolation and dignity. As a local piece suited to the streets and cerements of North Kensington, Ladbroke Grove and Golborne Road, it reads as a thoughtful expression of sympathy - crafted with care, mindful scent, and a tactile serenity that comforts those gathered to remember.
PEACEFUL THOUGHTS CUSHION
£135.00
A traditional Christian cross made entirely of flowers rests against a clean, white backdrop, its calm presence evoking the contemplative spaces of North Kensington's chapels and memorial gardens. The cross itself is richly covered in tightly clustered white cushion chrysanthemums, or similar small white blooms, creating a plush, velvety surface that looks almost like freshly fallen, untouched snow. Along the full edge of the cross, a neat collar of vivid green foliage provides a defined border, the fresh leaves cradling the white blooms and clearly outlining the sacred shape from head to foot and arm to arm. At the heart of the cross, where the beams meet, a beautiful spray of roses becomes the emotional centrepiece. Soft peach, gentle apricot, and pale blush-pink roses, together with creamy ivory blossoms, are arranged in a graceful, slightly domed cluster, as if gathered tenderly by hand. Their rounded forms are framed by feathery green fern fronds, fine strands of looping grass, and discreet flecks of tiny purple or lavender filler flowers that introduce a quiet hint of colour and movement. The white background and even daylight help every detail stand out, from the cushiony texture of each chrysanthemum to the smooth curve of each rose petal. This floral cross, reminiscent of the thoughtful tributes often seen on Lancaster Road or near Notting Hill churches, is designed as a heartfelt funeral or sympathy arrangement, offering a comforting symbol of faith, remembrance, and peace for families in and around North Kensington.
DEEP SYMPATHY CROSS
£90.00
A tranquil floral cross for a funeral or memorial service is shown in close detail, set against a crisp white studio backdrop that highlights every petal and curve. The cross itself is generous in size, its arms and stem densely packed with flowers so that only a gentle outline of foliage can be seen at the edges. The design is led by elegant roses in a soothing range of tones: cool white and creamy ivory, delicate blush pink, and soft peach that deepens to apricot in some blooms. These roses sit at different stages of opening, from tight buds that promise fullness to wide, cupped blooms that suggest a life well lived and lovingly remembered. Between them, billowing clusters of white hydrangea or similar textured flowers add body and volume, creating a thick, almost quilted surface that invites the imagination to feel its softness. Tiny accents of lavender-toned statice are scattered sparingly throughout the cross, giving a whisper of pale purple that breaks up the whites and pastels with gentle sophistication. Slender leaves and small sprays of deep green foliage peek around the perimeter, subtly framing the cross and echoing the calm greenery of nearby Holland Park or the tree-lined streets around North Kensington. The edges of the cross are rounded and smooth, a sign of expert craftsmanship and careful placement of every stem. This floral tribute feels steady yet tender, perfect for resting beside a casket, standing at the front of a chapel, or being delivered to a North Kensington home as a dignified expression of sympathy, faith, and enduring love.
DIVINITY CROSS
£105.00
This heart-shaped floral masterpiece, crafted by North Kensington Florist, captures the spirit of love and remembrance so often felt within the local community. Rows of approximately thirty-five pastel pink and creamy white roses nestle closely together, their lush petals forming a symmetrical heart that draws the eye and soul alike. Each bloom, from the softly opening bud to the elegantly unfurled flower, adds depth and character to the design. Wisps of baby's breath thread between the roses-each tiny cluster offering a gentle, cloud-like softness that brings both lightness and a subtle sweetness reminiscent of fresh arrangements delivered to homes along Portobello Road. The varied textures and serene color palette evoke solace and tender care, honoring North Kensington traditions of heartfelt gestures in times of celebration or sympathy. Under balanced, even lighting, the bouquet's subtle hues glow, making each detail-velvet-like petals, intricate folds, and shimmering baby's breath-stand out beautifully against the crisp background. This arrangement elegantly encapsulates emotions of gratitude, comfort, and enduring love, whether set as a centrepiece for intimate gatherings or gifted in celebration of heartfelt occasions such as Mother's Day, anniversaries, or thoughtful farewells for loved ones within the community.
DEAREST ONE HEART
£130.00
Gazing down on this meticulously formed heart, you sense both comfort and refined care in every petal. The arrangement is densely packed with pristine white and creamy ivory flowers that form a soft, cloud-like base of hydrangea clusters, their tiny florets billowing beneath dozens of roses arranged with deliberate rhythm. The roses range from small, tight buds to large, open blooms, their colours graduating from bright white through warm ivory and pale peach to the palest blush pink, creating a whispering ombre across the heart. Narrow glimpses of deep green, slightly variegated leaves surface between the blossoms, adding freshness and grounding the pastel palette. The photograph, taken from a slightly elevated overhead angle against a clean white backdrop, captures a subtle, natural shadow that lends depth and confirms the work as a sculpted floral composition rather than a flat image. Close your eyes and imagine the soft, clean fragrance of garden roses mingling with the airy sweetness of hydrangeas; the tactile impression is one of plush, petal-soft layers. This arrangement carries a quiet dignity, rendered with the attentive hand of an experienced florist, and it suits tender occasions - weddings that favour understated elegance, anniversaries that honour enduring affection, or memorials where reverence and solace are required. Delivered with care across nearby streets and laneways in North Kensington, it arrives looking fresh and composed, a serene expression of love and remembrance crafted to soothe and uplift in equal measure.
HEAVENLY HEART
£150.00
Set against a spotless white background, this floral teddy bear design appears almost like a cherished toy brought to life with petals instead of fabric. The entire figure is shaped from densely packed royal blue flowers, likely spray chrysanthemums or similar small blooms, layered so closely that they form a luxuriously textured pelt, reminiscent of velvety fur. Creamy white and soft buttery yellow flowers create the circular muzzle, inner ears, and the distinct pads on each paw, giving the bear a familiar, huggable look. Dark, rounded eyes with a gentle shine, paired with a tidy black triangle nose and a fine, curved stitched-style mouth, give the bear a sweet, peaceful expression as if it is quietly watching over someone. Around its neck, a sheer white mesh bow is carefully tied, the translucent loops and tails adding a delicate, almost angelic finish. The bear is designed to lie flat yet photographed at a slight angle, which adds depth and movement to the arrangement, while even studio lighting emphasises every petal and subtle colour shift. From my work here near Portobello Road and the tree-lined streets of North Kensington, I know pieces like this are chosen as tender funeral tributes, particularly for little ones, or for services where a teddy bear holds special meaning. The deep blue tone suggests serenity and a sky-like calm, making it a fitting floral memorial to send to local chapels, crematoria, or family homes, where its gentle presence can bring a small measure of comfort and remembrance.
BLUE TEDDY BEAR TRIBUTE
£100.00
This image shows an exquisitely detailed floral cross laid out against a bright white background, its subtle shadow giving the impression of soft depth and presence. Every inch of the cross is densely covered with blossoms in a harmonious palette of blush pink, warm mauve, and gentle lilac, creating a velvety, cushion-like texture. Clusters of lisianthus, with their lightly ruffled petals and occasional darker centres, trail gracefully along the arms and length of the cross, forming a continuous river of colour. At the exact heart of the design, where the arms intersect, three prominent roses in a quiet dusty rose shade open fully, their layered petals curling back in soft spirals that draw the eye inward. These central roses are framed by fresh green fern fronds and smaller, deeper green leaves, which lend a natural contrast and help shape the cross clearly against the white. Scattered throughout are delicate filler flowers in pastel pink and light purple tones, interspersed with tiny white blossoms and pale green buds that suggest new beginnings amidst remembrance. Slender traces of a darker purple ribbon or backing peek out from beneath the flowers along the outer edges, adding depth without breaking the gentle colour story. The arrangement feels calm, reverent, and deeply consoling, the kind of cross a family in North Kensington might choose for a funeral at a local church or crematorium, when they wish to express love, faith, and gratitude that words alone cannot hold. Crafted with care, it speaks of quiet reflection, shared memories, and enduring affection.
ETERNAL PARADISE CROSS
£95.00
Viewed from above against a clean white background, this circular funeral cushion appears almost like a calm, white lake edged with green. The base is entirely formed from small, pristine white chrysanthemums, tightly massed so that their many layered petals merge into a plush, cloud-like surface. Tiny hints of green at each chrysanthemum centre add a quiet, natural glow, preventing the white from feeling cold and instead suggesting purity and gentle comfort. Around the rim, a deep emerald satin ribbon has been meticulously folded into soft pleats, creating a scalloped frame that lends formality and care to the design, as if the flowers have been lovingly cradled. Set slightly towards the top of the circle is a focused cluster of vivid greenery, where a lime-green spider chrysanthemum explodes outward with fine, curling petals. Around it, bright green Hypericum berries and small green button blooms contribute round, glossy forms, while fern fronds and other dark foliage add depth and shadow. Two distinctive Scottish thistles, in muted blue and violet tones, rise from this greenery with their spiky, globe-shaped heads, giving the arrangement a sense of character and symbolic strength, ideal for honouring someone with Scottish connections or a love of wild landscapes. The composition feels calm yet expressive, the cool palette evoking fresh air after rain over nearby Kensington Memorial Park or along the quiet streets off Ladbroke Grove. It is the kind of carefully made tribute a local North Kensington florist might prepare for a funeral or memorial service, offering solace and a beautifully personal touch to a final goodbye.
ETERNAL PEACE TRIBUTE
£90.00
A traditional Christian cross crafted entirely from flowers appears against a clean, luminous white background, its soft shadow suggesting depth and presence, as if displayed in a quiet North Kensington chapel. The main body of the cross is lavishly covered in pure white button chrysanthemums, packed so densely that they form a continuous, cushion-like surface with no gaps. Each small petal contributes to a plush, snowy texture that conveys innocence, serenity, and the gentle hush associated with moments of farewell. At the central meeting point of the vertical and horizontal arms, the design gathers into a graceful focal cluster of roses. These roses unfold in delicate tones of pastel pink, creamy white, and warm peach, their rounded heads fully open, revealing spirals of satiny petals. Nestled among them are light, feathery fern fronds and tiny accents of lavender-hued filler flowers, which introduce soft movement and a faint hint of fragrance. Tracing the outer perimeter of the cross is a narrow lime green ribbon border, peeking from beneath the white blooms, adding clarity to the cross shape and a subtle halo of fresh colour. The composition feels both formal and tender, an arrangement that might accompany a funeral service, cremation ceremony, or memorial gathering for a North Kensington family wishing to express faith and remembrance. Every element-from the purity of the white chrysanthemums to the gentle blush of the roses-has been chosen to evoke solace, respect, and the enduring warmth of cherished memories.
GRACEFUL CROSS
£90.00
An elaborate saxophone-shaped floral tribute is captured against a simple white backdrop, its colours glowing as if in soft daylight. The body of the saxophone is meticulously crafted from tightly packed yellow chrysanthemum heads, each bloom nestling closely into the next to form a plush, continuous surface. The iconic sweeping curve of the neck, the straight line of the body, and the flared bell at the base are all clearly defined in flowers, so the instrument is instantly recognisable. Dotting this golden surface are small, rich red rosebuds and tiny spray roses, placed where the instrument's keys and mechanisms would usually appear, like notes picked out on a musical score. The roses' velvety texture and deeper hue bring an emotional intensity that contrasts with the cheerful brightness of the chrysanthemums. Fine strands of green foliage and trailing vine-like stems run along the outline and within the design, suggesting the fluid movement of a melody and giving the tribute a touch of garden freshness. Near the upper left, a few delicate green or metallic stems project from the mouthpiece area, indicating subtle structural support and adding a sculptural flourish. The overall composition feels still and reverent, yet somehow full of song, as if it might begin to play a gentle tune remembered from evenings around Golborne Road or quiet gatherings near Kensington Memorial Park. Created with the care of an experienced local florist, this design offers a meaningful way to say goodbye to a music lover, turning their passion for jazz, soul, or big band sounds into a lasting floral embrace of remembrance.
SAXOPHONE TRIBUTE
£130.00
Presented on a spotless white background, this Celtic cross funeral tribute is crafted with the calm precision and care you might expect from a long-established North Kensington florist creating flowers for a family service off Ladbroke Grove. The cross is generously cushioned with firm, snowy-white chrysanthemum heads, each tiny bloom nestled so closely together that the surface appears smooth and softly domed, almost like pressed linen. Threading through this white canvas, vibrant lime-green button chrysanthemums form the unmistakable Celtic circle and interlaced details, their compact, spherical shapes giving the design sculpted definition. The contrast between the cool white and fresh green evokes a sense of purity and quiet renewal, reminiscent of early morning walks through nearby Avondale Park. On the lower length of the vertical arm, three distinct clusters of rich purple carnations create a gentle cascade, their frilled petals deep in tone, adding emotional weight and dignity to the tribute. Among these, small accents of dark green foliage and fine, twining stems soften the line of the flowers, as if nature itself were gently wrapping the cross in comfort. The lighting is bright yet gentle, revealing the subtle textures of every petal and the crisp outline of the Celtic ring. Overall, the arrangement feels peaceful, considered, and respectful, a floral cross that would sit beautifully beside a coffin at a funeral, a cremation chapel, or a memorial gathering anywhere in North Kensington, offering family and friends a simple, eloquent way to say goodbye.
WHITE CELTIC CROSS TRIBUTE
£170.00
A lovingly crafted floral teddy bear is shown in full view, resting against a plain white backdrop that allows every nuance of the design to shine, much like a display in a peaceful North Kensington studio. Its entire form is sculpted from creamy white chrysanthemums, each flower nestled closely to create the rounded head, perky ears, and cuddly body of a classic soft toy. The petals form a dense yet feathery coat, giving the bear an inviting, velvety texture that suggests warmth and protection. Two tiny dark blooms shape the eyes, while a small black floral button creates the nose, together giving the bear a gentle, tender gaze that seems to watch over whoever it honours. A suggestion of a soft smile is created using subtle shading and petal placement around the muzzle, adding to the feeling of reassurance. Across the front, the bear wears a floral "vest" crafted from clusters of deep pink and lilac-toned blooms, arranged in two symmetrical panels that resemble lapels, echoing the thoughtfulness of dressing a cherished toy for a special occasion. At the neckline, a light, airy bow of purple netting is tied neatly, its translucent folds catching the light like a whisper of tulle. The neutral background and soft, even lighting keep the focus firmly on the craftsmanship and emotion held within each petal. It's the kind of tender tribute a North Kensington family might choose for a child's memorial or a baby's farewell near Holland Park, a floral companion that carries innocence, remembrance, and quiet love.
WHITE TEDDY BEAR TRIBUTE
£100.00
Delicately shaped like a pair of angel wings, this all-white funeral tribute rests against a clean white backdrop, its quiet beauty reminiscent of the stillness you might feel in one of North Kensington's small, tucked-away churches on a calm afternoon. The main body of each wing is formed from a tightly woven bed of petite white flowers-likely spray carnations or chrysanthemums-clustered so closely that they create a plush, cushion-like texture. The flowers' centers carry the softest tones of pale green and buttery cream, giving the design a gentle, natural variation that draws the eye along the curve of each wing. Surrounding this floral core, generous arcs of soft white feathers are carefully layered and fanned out, their wispy edges and downy barbs suggesting the touch of a guardian angel's embrace. These feathery plumes taper elegantly at the wing tips, giving the impression of lightness and potential flight, as though a breeze from nearby Holland Park could lift them at any moment. The lighting is even and luminous, causing both petals and feathers to glow subtly against the white background, while a faint shadow below adds depth and makes the wings appear to hover. Crafted in a style that a local designer from North Kensington Florist might create for a family farewell, this piece carries strong symbolism of purity, protection, and spiritual transition. It feels especially suited for a memorial or funeral service, offering loved ones a visual expression of peace, remembrance, and the hope that the departed has been gently carried onward.
ANGEL WINGS TRIBUTE
£170.00
An exquisite angel-wing funeral tribute fills the frame, crafted with the kind of patience and care that experienced North Kensington florists bring to the most delicate moments of farewell. The two wings are shaped with graceful, sweeping curves, each one formed from tightly clustered white chrysanthemums or similar tiny blossoms, their petals overlapping in a soft, velvety carpet of white. The subtle green eyes at the centre of each bloom add a gentle, living freshness, preventing the design from feeling flat and drawing the gaze along the arc of the wings. Encircling this floral body, soft white feathers form a light, fluffy border, as if the wings might lift at any moment on an unseen breeze; the feathers catch the light, adding a faint shimmer and emphasising the celestial theme. At the point where the wings meet, a bold fuchsia satin bow becomes the emotional focal point, its rich colour standing out against the pristine white. The bow is elegantly tied with generous loops and long, flowing tails that lay across the blossoms like a ribbon of remembrance. Cradled within its knot is a single pink rosebud, freshly opened at the edges, suggesting innocence, grace, and cherished memories. A small cluster of dark purple thistles or spiky foliage beneath the rose adds texture and a dignified depth of tone. This serene arrangement, perfect for services around Westbourne Park, Golborne Road, or the quiet streets off Portobello Road, conveys heartfelt condolences and a sense of spiritual comfort to families saying goodbye.
PINK ACCENTED ANGEL WINGS TRIBUTE
£180.00
JAMAICAN FLAG TRIBUTE
JAMAICAN FLAG TRIBUTE
£150.00
A meticulously designed Star of David sympathy tribute fills the image, its precise geometry and lush texture standing out against a plain, bright white backdrop. The entire Magen David shape is composed of tightly packed fresh flowers, mostly in crisp white and a rich, almost indigo blue, giving the piece a serene yet powerful presence. Along the outer edge, a continuous band of soft white chrysanthemums, or similar small-petalled blooms, outlines each point and angle, creating a gentle, cushion-like border. Inside this border, the centre of the star forms a bold white hexagon, its dense blanket of petals suggesting purity, peace, and light. Surrounding this central shape, deep blue flowers fill the triangular arms of the star, their colour reminiscent of the night sky over Ladbroke Grove or Portobello Road, adding visual weight and solemnity. Carefully placed within each dark blue triangle is a smaller internal triangle of white blossoms, positioned near the base of each outward-pointing tip. This interplay of white and blue triangles produces a layered, interwoven pattern that feels both modern and timeless, reflecting Jewish identity and tradition. The petals appear velvety and fresh, as though arranged that day for a funeral service or memorial in North Kensington's local synagogues or chapels. The tribute conveys a quiet strength, offering comfort and respect to grieving families, and stands as a meaningful floral expression of remembrance, faith, and enduring love within the local community.
STAR OF DAVID TRIBUTE
£160.00
IRISH FLAG TRIBUTE
IRISH FLAG TRIBUTE
£150.00
The composition hums with quiet devotion: thousands of velvety orange marigold florets are packed to sculpt the sacred Khanda, their compact surfaces creating a textured, glowing form that seems almost tactile. The chakkar and crossed kirpans are rendered with disciplined curves and negative space, giving the symbol a reassuring architectural balance, while at its heart a small cluster of pristine white lilies anchors the design. Two or more lilies are fully open, their petals arching back to reveal pale green and yellow stamens, surrounded by delicate buds and a halo of tiny white gypsophila, which softens the fiery orange and adds a breathy, ethereal quality. Deep green leaves thread through the composition, offering contrast and a sense of freshness as if hand-harvested from a market stall on Portobello Road that very morning. The subtle drop shadow beneath the piece implies a freestanding ritual display, suitable for a Gurdwara doorway, community celebration, or intimate remembrance. The visual story is both tactile and fragrant in imagination: the warm, slightly resinous note of marigolds beside the cool, cleansing scent of lilies suggests comfort and clarity. This arrangement, conceived with North Kensington sensibilities and an eye for respectful tradition, communicates reverence, unity, and a gentle resilience - floral language for Vaisakhi, Gurpurab, memorials, and other moments when community and devotion meet.
ORANGE KHANDA SIKH TRIBUTE
£190.00
A classic heart-shaped funeral flower arrangement is shown in close detail, evoking a sense of stillness and compassion that feels at home in North Kensington's peaceful residential streets. The heart itself is entirely filled with compact white chrysanthemums, each flower carefully placed to form a continuous, cloud-like blanket of petals. Their crisp white tone suggests purity and farewell, creating a serene foundation that draws the eye inward. Encircling the heart, a rich emerald green pleated satin ribbon is folded into neat ruffles, its glossy surface catching soft highlights as it curves around the shape. This green border gives structure and definition, echoing the lush trees you might see along Ladbroke Grove or around Avondale Park. At the upper left of the heart, an accent spray introduces gentle depth: two creamy white roses in full bloom sit at the centre, their layered petals open yet composed, surrounded by smaller white flowers such as freesias or similar delicate blossoms. Wisps of feathery foliage and broad, deep green leaves cradle the flowers and stretch slightly across the white chrysanthemum base, adding texture and a sense of natural flow. The arrangement is photographed on a pure white background, allowing every petal and fold of ribbon to stand out clearly. This heart tribute feels like a quiet embrace in floral form, ideal for funeral services, wakes, or crematorium chapels in and around North Kensington, where families seek a dignified, meaningful way to express sympathy and remembrance.
ETERNITY HEART
£95.00
A thoughtfully designed floral cross is shown on a brilliant white background, angled slightly so the top left appears closer and the lower right recedes, giving the tribute a sense of movement and depth. The structure of the cross is traced with a dense border of small white spray chrysanthemums, their tiny, daisy-like heads pressed tightly together to form a soft, cushiony outline that suggests purity and peace. Tucked just beneath this snowy fringe is a band of pale green ribbon or carefully folded foliage, circling the entire shape like a gentle halo of spring green and adding a refined, almost tailored finish you might associate with elegant homes off Portobello Road. Within this clearly defined frame, the interior bursts into colour. Large roses in vivid fuchsia pink and gentle, buttery cream are fully opened, their petals spiralling outward in lush layers. These roses are arranged in clusters and lines along the arms and centre of the cross, drawing the eye from top to base. Between them sit rounded lime-green button chrysanthemums, their tidy, domed heads giving a lively, tactile contrast that makes the design feel fresh and modern. Slender sprays of smaller deep purple and violet blooms, perhaps lisianthus or statice, weave among the larger flowers, adding depth, richness, and a slightly wild, meadow-like softness reminiscent of the greenery around Little Wormwood Scrubs. The lighting is bright and even, revealing every nuance of colour and texture without harsh shadows. Overall, the floral cross conveys a sense of dignified remembrance, making it a fitting sympathy tribute for a funeral or memorial service for families in North Kensington seeking both comfort and a gentle celebration of life.
PRECIOUS MEMORY CROSS
£95.00
A striking Sikh Khanda floral tribute dominates a clean white background, its powerful outline rendered entirely in a saturated royal blue that feels both contemplative and commanding. The emblem's familiar shapes-the central sword, the encircling chakkar, and the two protective kirpans-are carefully built from masses of small blue chrysanthemum florets, pressed closely together until they form a soft, almost fabric-like texture. This dense surface gives the tribute a sense of substance, as though it could be lifted from the table of a Gurdwara near Ladbroke Grove and carried gently into a remembrance service. At the point where the central blade narrows towards the base, a serene focal cluster rests like a blessing. Three white roses, perfectly formed and just opening, are surrounded by clouds of tiny white filler flowers and a halo of dark green foliage, offering a luminous counterpoint to the depth of the blue. The white blooms suggest peace, humility, and a quiet farewell, similar to the hush that falls over the streets around Golborne Road in the early evening. Subtle shadows cast on the white background add dimensionality, highlighting the careful curvature and symmetry of the Khanda. This floral design feels deeply considered, every petal placed with care, suitable for a Sikh funeral, memorial ceremony, or a special anniversary of passing. It conveys respect for Sikh identity and courage, while providing a gentle, comforting presence for families in North Kensington saying a final, heartfelt goodbye.
BLUE KHANDA SIKH TRIBUTE
£190.00
A large, perfectly shaped heart of roses and baby's breath is shown against a clean white backdrop, the simplicity of the setting drawing all attention to the tribute itself. The design is split with absolute precision down the middle, creating a visual balance that feels as calm as a quiet walk through North Kensington's garden squares. On the left, tightly packed creamy white and pale yellow roses form a soft, luminous field, each rose at full, rounded bloom, petals layered like folded silk. Opposite them, on the right side of the heart, sit lush, soft pink roses in the same compact style, their colour suggesting gentle affection and cherished memories. Between the blooms and along the outer outline of the heart, fine sprays of white baby's breath weave in and out, like lace stitching holding the two halves together. The tiny gypsophila flowers give the impression of mist or breath on a cold morning along nearby Golborne Road, adding depth and tenderness to the arrangement. Every rose appears thoughtfully placed, with no gaps, creating a full, generous display that reads clearly as a symbol of united hearts. The tribute feels ideal for a funeral or memorial service, especially when you want to express deep love and remembrance in a single, eloquent gesture. Crafted with the care of an experienced local florist, this heart arrangement would sit beautifully on a casket or as a central display at a North Kensington farewell, radiating quiet grace and enduring devotion.
INFINITY ROSE HEART
£105.00
A trio of rose-filled hearts cascades down the frame in a graceful diagonal, each heart overflowing with tightly clustered blossoms that evoke tenderness and remembrance. The arrangement is composed of miniature and medium roses in a refined palette of dusty lavender, soft mauve, and pastel pink, creating a gentle, romantic haze of colour against a pure white backdrop. Each heart appears plush and full, with the layered petals forming a velvety surface that suggests both delicacy and strength, much like cherished memories held close. Fresh green ivy vines wind around the curves of the hearts, defining their shapes and linking them together in a flowing ribbon of foliage. The ivy's glossy leaves introduce subtle shadows and highlights, adding depth and giving the impression that the hearts are suspended in mid-air, almost floating. To the left, faint vertical reflections hint at a clear glass or polished surface, framing the design with a quiet, contemporary elegance that would feel at home in a serene chapel or family home near Holland Park or Golborne Road. The overall mood is one of peaceful tribute and enduring affection, as though the hearts are gently descending from above, carrying messages of love. Crafted with the careful eye of a seasoned North Kensington florist, this design feels ideal for funeral services, memorial gatherings, or a commemorative display where family wishes to honour a life with softness, grace, and a visually striking symbol of unity.
APPRECIATED & ADMIRED CASKET HEARTS
£120.00
This U-shaped toran is a careful study in colour and cultural function, captured against a stark white field so every texture reads clearly. Starting from the top of each arm, a compact block of creamy-white florets-soft-edged, densely layered-acts as a luminous crown; these silk-like petals resemble miniature chrysanthemums and pick up diffuse studio lighting with a soft glow. Beneath each white crown a firm band of reddish-brown follows, its flattened, layered elements feeling almost woody, like terracotta or mahogany tones translated into petal form, providing weight and contrast. The garland's main sweep is a broad, exuberant band of golden-yellow clusters that emulate marigolds: round, fluffy, and tightly threaded to maintain fullness. Suspended at the lowest meeting point is a bold, multi-layered pendant of vivid orange ruffles that serves as the piece's heart, dense and tactile, hinting at marigold or calendula inspiration. Narrow green accents appear where sections meet, a careful touch of foliage that defines transitions. The construction is clearly artificial-silky textiles and durable cord-designed for repeated use in puja, festival doorways, or as a wedding welcome. As a North Kensington florist I picture this garland brightening thresholds from Ladbroke Grove to Portobello Market; North Kensington Florist would recommend it for Diwali displays, Ganesh Chaturthi altars, or as a long-lasting decorative toran for homes along Westbourne Grove. The mood is celebratory and reverent, a crafted symbol of welcome that balances tradition with practical durability.
COLOURFUL GARLAND
£75.00
From an angled overhead view on a clean white surface, this lovingly composed cushion of flowers reads like a memory stitched in colour and scent. Its rectangular, pillow profile is densely packed with hot pink roses forming the luminous heart of the piece; their glossy petals catch the light and draw the eye inward. Pale pink carnations weave among them in soft, frilly waves, lending a tactile, almost textile-like softness. Sprightly yellow ranunculus scatter warmth across the surface, while purple lisianthus provide elegant depth and a subtle, twilight note. The inclusion of bracing silver-blue Eryngium thistles introduces sculptural contrast - a hint of wildness against the cultivated blooms - and small sprays of tiny pink filler flowers knit the composition together. Lush eucalyptus leaves with their round, silvery tones fan out beneath and between blooms, offering a cool fragrance that calms the arrangement. The pillow is defined by a dramatic ruffled edge of deep red satin ribbon that frames the flowers like a ceremonial sash and gives the cushion a finished, reverent silhouette. Bathed in soft, diffused light, the bouquet reads as a celebration of life: bright, comforting and attentive to detail. Designed for moments of remembrance, it would sit gently in a North Kensington chapel, on a chapel hymn book, or be placed at a memorial in the Portobello Road area - a tactile statement of love and thoughtful sympathy for family and friends.
COMFORTING FEELING
£95.00
A full, heart-shaped floral tribute fills the frame, set against a pristine white background that allows every petal and curve to stand out with quiet dignity. The heart is meticulously constructed, dense with blossoms so closely nestled that no base is visible, only a tapestry of colour and texture in pastel pink, creamy ivory, gentle yellow, bright white, and deep magenta. At its core, several large cream-to-buttery-yellow roses open in generous spirals, their soft, layered petals suggesting reassurance and unwavering affection, like a gentle embrace held a moment longer at the end of a service in North Kensington. Encircling these focal roses, cushions of pale pink carnations provide a plush, ruffled foundation, clearly defining the rounded lobes and tapering point of the heart. Interspersed between them, crisp white spider chrysanthemums stretch out their long, fine petals from lime-toned centres, introducing a cool, airy brightness and a sense of movement. Nestled more deeply in the design, clusters of rich magenta-pink lisianthus, with their slightly curled, bell-like blooms, bring emotional depth and a note of solemn beauty to the arrangement. Small accents of fresh green foliage and tiny buds slip between the flowers, adding a natural rhythm and preventing the pastel tones from becoming too sweet. At the lower point of the heart, a soft pink ribbon peeks out discreetly, indicating this design is intended as a sympathy or memorial tribute, perhaps to be placed in a North Kensington church, a local crematorium chapel, or carried with care to a graveside. The overall impression is of a lovingly crafted floral heart that speaks of remembrance, gratitude, and enduring love when words feel too fragile.
DEEPLY ADORED HEART
£89.00
This pillow-shaped sympathy tribute sits like a small, gentle monument: a rectangular cushion completely covered in tiny, pristine white chrysanthemums that form a soft, cloud-like surface. The dense packing of each bloom creates a uniform texture reminiscent of a well-stitched fabric, conveying calm, purity, and a sense of restful sleep. On the upper left a concentrated flourish of colour breaks the white - several rich magenta or deep fuchsia roses with petals unfurling in layered spirals, contrasted by clusters of delicate white freesias or similar small blossoms that add brightness and a tender fragrance. Behind and between these focal blooms, slender fern fronds and glossy green leaves fan outward, creating a natural backdrop that lifts the roses and gives the spray a sense of movement and life. A subtle pleated border of pale green satin ribbon trims the pillow, the satin catching a hint of light and providing a fresh, refined outline that complements the white and jewel-toned accents. Photographed on a crisp white surface, the arrangement casts a soft shadow that enhances its three-dimensional form and solemn presence. This classic design is an expression of sympathy often chosen for funerals or memorial services, meant to offer solace and to symbolise eternal rest. As a local creation, it fits quietly into North Kensington's traditions of remembrance - appropriate for delivery to churches, chapels, or Kensal Green Cemetery, where its understated beauty can support families in mourning.
DEEPLY CHERISHED CUSHION
£135.00
Centered on a pristine white field, this luxuriant heart-shaped bouquet is a study in rich reds and soft whites, its form precise and its textures vividly apparent. Dense clusters of deep crimson roses build the heart's core, their petals ranging from tightly furled to fully open, each bloom presenting layered velvet folds that catch a soft, natural gleam. Interwoven throughout are clouds of baby's breath (Gypsophila) - tiny white blooms that cushion the roses and create an airy halo around the silhouette, adding a lightness that balances the intensity of the scarlet. In the upper-left curve a single white lily makes a quiet dramatic statement; its broad, pristine petals sweep outward with a subtle cream at the throat and visible yellow stamens, providing both contrast and compositional focus. The overall effect is romantic and reverent, a floral heart that reads as both personal and ceremonial, suitable for anniversaries, declarations of love, or a refined Valentine's offering. As a local florist on North Kensington's streets, I picture this arrangement being carried past Portobello Market or delivered to a Notting Hill flat, its combined scent of rose and lily warming a cool London morning. Prepared with the care customers expect from North Kensington Florist, the bouquet shows technical skill, fragrant harmony, and neighborhood sensibility - an emblem of affection shaped with exacting craft and quietly resonant emotion.
DEVOTED HEART
£130.00
A meticulously crafted heart of flowers appears almost to float against a crisp white backdrop, its rich reds and fresh greens forming a bold yet tender tribute that would feel at home in any North Kensington farewell service. At the heart of this piece are several large red roses, each bloom lush and velvety, their petals closely whorled at the centre and opening gradually outward, symbolising love that unfolds over a lifetime. Around them, clusters of red carnations nestle tightly together, their soft, fringed petals creating a dense, cushion-like surface that fills the heart shape without a single empty gap. Punctuating this sea of red, bright lime-green button chrysanthemums rise up like tiny domes, their compact florets catching the light and offering a gentle contrast that keeps the design fresh and uplifting rather than sombre. Along the outer edges and between key blooms, small sprigs of variegated pittosporum weave through the design, their green and cream leaves framing the heart with subtle movement and texture. Near the bottom tip of the heart, feathery fern fronds peek out, adding a final touch of natural elegance, like a soft sigh of farewell. The overall impression is of a full, generous tribute, carefully composed by an experienced local florist who understands how families in North Kensington wish to honour their loved ones, whether gathered near Portobello Road, Golborne Road, or a quiet residential street. This floral heart speaks eloquently of devotion, gratitude, and cherished memories, making it ideal for funeral tributes, memorial remembrances, or solemn services where love needs no words.
ENDURING LOVE HEART
£95.00
A dignified floral cross tribute fills the frame, set against a spotless white background so that every flower and ribbon edge stands out with gentle clarity. The entire cross is densely filled with immaculate white spray chrysanthemums, each bloom pressed closely to the next, forming a pillowy, textured surface that feels both comforting and reverent. Their tiny green eyes peek from the centre of each flower, adding subtle detail without breaking the impression of soft, continuous white. Encasing the shape is a slim border of lime-green ribbon, carefully pleated and pinned to follow the contours of the cross, lending a fresh, modern outline that frames the arrangement with quiet elegance. At the heart where the arms meet, a generous spray of deep purple lisianthus spills outward, their velvety petals swirling in layers of plum and violet tones. The lisianthus are interlaced with light, feathery greenery, a few unopened buds, and occasional lighter blooms, adding texture and a sense of natural growth. From this central cluster, a small cascade of purple flowers and buds travels down and across one arm, creating a feeling of gentle movement, like a ribbon of colour flowing downward in remembrance. The cross is lit with soft, even light, casting a delicate shadow underneath that makes it appear as if it rests quietly on a white cloth in a North Kensington chapel near Ladbroke Grove or Portobello Road. Crafted with the care of an experienced local florist, this traditional sympathy tribute offers peace, faith, and loving memory for a funeral or memorial gathering.
EVERLASTING MEMORY CROSS
£90.00
This cross-shaped memorial reads like a quiet, loving message: densely packed white chrysanthemums form the body of the cross, each bloom tucked tightly to create a cushiony, cloud-like surface that reads as purity and peacefulness. The perimeter is traced with a ruffled purple satin ribbon, pleated and slightly raised so the border presents a soft, stately contrast against the white. Down the centre of the upright arm, the letters "MUM" are carefully formed from small, deep purple flower heads-likely eustoma or petite spray chrysanthemums-standing out with considered clarity against the pale base. At the intersection of the arms, a rich, rounded spray gathers attention: deep violet roses with tightly furled petals, gentler lavender lisianthus, and sprigs of variegated greenery whose pale-edged leaves lend texture and a breathing space between blooms. The lighting in the image is soft and neutral, allowing the layered purples-from smoky mauve to saturated plum-to read with solemn dignity; a subtle, powdery scent of fresh blooms seems implied, as if the tribute had just been prepared in a cool studio. I picture this arrangement being chosen for a service in Notting Hill or delivered to a chapel near Ladbroke Grove or Golborne Road, a design meant to offer consolation and to honour memory with thoughtful craftsmanship and restrained, heartfelt beauty.
