FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY BASKET
£60.00
This image shows a thoughtfully designed funeral flower basket set against a crisp white studio background, the simplicity of the scene allowing every flower and leaf to be clearly distinguished. The container is a light woven basket in an off-white hue with a prominent arched handle, its subtle weave catching the light and giving a homely, comforting feel familiar to many Bow households. Rising from the basket is a mound of fresh blooms and greenery, centred by a large creamy white rose whose velvety petals swirl inward in perfect symmetry, suggesting peace and heartfelt respect. On either side, two deep purple calla lilies stand with understated elegance, their trumpet-shaped blooms in tones of plum and aubergine gently folding inwards, as if bowing in remembrance. Threaded through this central trio are delicate clematis-like flowers, star-shaped and airy, coloured in pale lavender and lilac with tiny yellow centres that provide a touch of light in the more muted palette. Scattered throughout are clusters of small yellow and white blossoms, reminiscent of freesia or alstroemeria, which add cheerful notes and a soft fragrance you might associate with springtime walks through Mile End Park. Near the right side of the design, a vivid magenta gerbera daisy emerges, its bright, radiating petals creating a focal pop of colour that symbolises individuality and cherished memories. The arrangement is supported by lush green foliage: broad, glossy leaves and smaller, lighter green sprigs that fill out the shape into a generous, rounded dome. A gentle shadow beneath the basket suggests a solid surface, making it easy to imagine this tribute delivered by Flowers Bow to a local service, crematorium, or family home as a tender expression of condolence.
TREASURED MOMENTS BASKET
£65.00
This image shows a beautifully composed sympathy flower basket placed before a pure white background, where every bloom is allowed to tell its part of the story. The basket is light in colour, woven from pale wicker or rattan, with an oval-to-rectangular form and a matching handle arching gracefully over the centre, like a protective frame. Inside, the arrangement is lush and rounded, formed by a generous gathering of premium flowers. At the heart of the design, creamy white roses open fully, their soft, layered petals forming gentle spirals that speak of timeless love and quiet respect. Threading through the roses are rare, star-shaped clematis flowers in shades of pale lavender and periwinkle blue, their striking yellow-green centres offering a subtle, uplifting brightness. Between these focal blooms, clusters of delicate, freesia-like flowers in white and pale yellow create a soft, airy texture, some blossoms just beginning to open, suggesting hope and continuation amid farewell. Fingertip-fine ruffles from white filler flowers add another layer of softness. Rich green leaves, from broad glossy foliage to smaller, lighter sprigs, wrap around the pastel blooms and spill slightly over the edge of the basket, giving the piece a natural, garden-like feeling, reminiscent of a calm walk through a Bow green space after a service. The cool, luminous palette of cream, white, lemon, and lilac feels soothing and composed, suitable for a funeral, celebration of life, or condolence delivery anywhere around Bow and nearby Mile End. It looks like the work of an experienced local florist, arranging each stem with care to offer comfort, support, and a sense of gentle presence in a time of loss.
PEACE & PURITY BASKET
£65.00
This image shows a graceful funeral arrangement in a light wooden basket, designed to bring quiet comfort to families in Bow and the neighbouring East London streets. The basket is shallow yet wide, gently oval in shape and crafted from pale wood slats, resting on four discreet feet that give a sense of refinement. Rising from either side is a softly arched handle in the same light tone, forming a frame around a beautifully rounded dome of flowers. At the heart of the composition, creamy white roses are fully open, their velvety petals spiralling outward in gentle curves, symbolising purity, grace, and loving remembrance. They are surrounded by deep red carnations, whose ruffled, generous petals offer both richness and subtle drama, echoing the deeper emotions that accompany loss. A few carnations show bi-coloured petals, white edged or brushed with shades of pink and red, bringing a more intimate, individual detail to the tribute. Threaded between these focal blooms are small white flowers that resemble freesias, with slender stems, bell-like florets, and clusters of buds that hint at continuity and quiet hope. The flowers emerge from a lush bed of greenery: broad, glossy dark green leaves create a solid foundation, while fine, feathery fronds-similar to asparagus fern-reach up and out, breaking the outline and adding texture and softness. Set against a clean white background, every petal edge and leaf vein is clearly visible, allowing the design's balance to stand out. This style of basket would be fitting for a funeral at a local church off Mile End Road, a chapel near the Regent's Canal, or as a sympathy basket delivered from a Bow florist to a grieving family's doorstep.

Captured against a pure white backdrop, this lush, circular bouquet showcases the artistry of a skilled Bow florist, blending soft romance with striking colour. Dominating the structure are several pristine white lilies, their long, trumpet-like petals opening outwards to create a sculptural and graceful frame. The centres of these lilies reveal pale green pistils and warm yellow stamens, offering a subtle contrast to the cool whiteness of the petals. Nestled closely among them are numerous roses in blush pink and creamy ivory tones, each one carefully placed; some remain tight, promising future bloom, while others unfurl fully, their velvety layers forming generous cups that feel classic and timeless. Cutting dramatically through these gentle shades, vibrant fuchsia and magenta Oriental lilies-reminiscent of Stargazers-introduce a bold note, their petals dusted with darker speckles and surrounding vivid golden anthers that catch the light. Threaded throughout the entire bouquet are delicate sprays of white baby's breath, or Gypsophila, its tiny star-like flowers clustering on slender stems, creating a misty softness that fills the spaces between the larger blooms. Glimpses of slim green leaves and stems add freshness, suggesting a just-arranged quality. The lighting is bright, even, and neutral, highlighting the contrast of textures-the silky smooth lilies, the plush roses, and the feathery gypsophila-while preserving the bouquet's rounded, abundant shape. This arrangement would feel right at home at a Bow wedding reception near the canal, as a radiant anniversary surprise delivered around Old Ford, or as a joyful thank-you bouquet for a neighbour near Roman Road Market, quietly expressing affection, admiration, and celebration.
