“I'M SORRY” FLOWERS
A refined floral arrangement of white roses, lavender alstroemeria, and delicate baby's breath stands gracefully in a clear cylindrical vase, illuminated by soft daylight that seems to filter through a nearby window, as you might find in a bright Upper Norwood townhouse overlooking Church Road. The white roses are fully formed and luxuriously petalled, their velvety surfaces catching the light and creating subtle shadows in the folds of each bloom. Woven among them are stems of alstroemeria in gentle purple and lilac shades, some buds still slender and half-closed, others opening to show intricate markings and deeper violet veining that lend depth and quiet drama. Wispy sprays of gypsophila thread through the arrangement, tiny white florets clustering like a fine lace veil that softens the contrast between the roses and the alstroemeria. Around the edges and tucked between the flowers, glossy green leaves and fresh stems provide a deep emerald backdrop, enhancing the creamy whites and cool purples while giving the bouquet a rounded, carefully balanced silhouette. The transparent vase reveals the straight, cleanly cut stems immersed in clear water, a reminder of the bouquet's freshness and the hands-on skill that went into its design. The atmosphere is tranquil, almost meditative, evoking the calm of a quiet side street off Westow Hill on a still afternoon. This is the kind of bouquet chosen to send gentle congratulations, to mark a new beginning, or to offer comfort without overwhelming the recipient, a timeless piece that feels equally at home on a dining table, in a reception area, or by a bedside where its soft beauty can be quietly appreciated.
MAKE A WISH
£60.00
An elegant hand-tied bouquet of about twelve creamy white roses and feathery baby's breath sits poised in a clear glass vase, its trimmed stems revealed through the water and a bright white background that keeps attention entirely on the blooms. The roses vary from tightly furled buds to generous, fully opened heads, their petals layered with a velvety, almost luminous cream that catches soft, natural light as if from a north-facing window near Crown Lane. Interspersed between the main flowers, delicate sprigs of Gypsophila create a soft halo-tiny white points that give the arrangement an ethereal, almost snowfall-like quality. A rich palette of foliage in deep green and lighter fresh tones frames the composition, offering both structure and a refreshing colour counterpoint. The overall texture balances plush rose petals with the diaphanous breath-like clusters, conveying both substance and lightness. The scent is gentle: a faint, clean floral note that suggests a morning in a sunlit conservatory or a short stroll past the markets around Anerley, and it brings a feeling of calm confidence to any room. As a local florist, Florist Upper Norwood often composes bouquets like this for intimate celebrations, quiet remembrances, or to brighten a neighbour's day, and the pictured arrangement reflects careful handling-crisp stems, clear water, and blossoms arranged to speak of enduring elegance. There's a thoughtful simplicity here that feels both ceremonial and warmly personal, perfect for gifting or for bringing a measured serenity to a home in the Upper Norwood area.
MY ONLY
£70.00
As an Upper Norwood florist, I see this bouquet as a living canvas evoking the area's gentle hills and vibrant street life. In a thoughtfully shaped glass vase, richly layered carnations bloom in tones of deep cherry red, powdery pink, and pure white-all clustered together in a design that invites touch and admiration. Wisps of baby's breath meander among the carnations, lending an ethereal, almost whimsical softness reminiscent of early fog rolling across Crystal Palace. The arrangement forms a dense, generous sphere, a testament to florists' artistry from Westow Street to Church Road. Each detail is brought to life by bright, diffused lighting, where the creamy opacity of carnation petals contrasts with the crisp, starlike sprigs of gypsophila. The stems, visible through the vase, anchor the arrangement in freshness and authenticity, hinting at flowers sourced from local markets. Suited for anniversaries, milestone birthdays, or as a thoughtful gesture for friends living near Gipsy Hill, this bouquet balances celebratory vibrance with tranquil refinement, creating an atmosphere that elevates both daily moments and special occasions in Upper Norwood homes.
WARM WISHES
£55.00
This composition unfolds like a quiet, celebratory story held in glass: a clear, slightly curved vase reveals stems submerged in water, the mechanics of life quietly on display against a clean white field. Tall, sculptural white calla lilies reach upward with smooth, porcelain-like trumpets and pale yellow spadices that lend a modern simplicity to the arrangement. Interspersed behind and between them, a lofty column of white stock softens the skyline with its clustered, delicate florets, adding both scent and vertical rhythm. Grounding the design are opulent magenta peonies-two wide-open heads of deeply ruffled petals sit low and full, while a smaller, button-like bud hints at unfolding beauty-their rich colour and honeyed fragrance bringing depth and warmth. A single creamy white rose nestles nearer the vase's mouth, its compact spiral of petals offering quiet refinement beside the more theatrical peonies. Sprays of baby's breath float through the bouquet like light threads, and a mix of ferny fronds and broader glossy leaves create a lush green backdrop that makes the whites appear cooler and the magentas more vivid. In the calm morning light of a Westow Hill kitchen table or a living room near Knight's Hill, this bouquet reads as both an elegant gift and a comforting presence-appropriate for anniversary celebrations, thoughtful get-well wishes, or simply to brighten a neighbour's day with local delivery across Upper Norwood.
HOPELESS ROMANTIC
£65.00
Bathed in gentle daylight reminiscent of Upper Norwood's leafy side streets, this bouquet exudes restraint and quiet sophistication, as if echoing the area's Victorian charm. The deep crimson roses at the bouquet's heart are sumptuous and inviting, recalling special moments celebrated in local tearooms along Westow Hill. Creamy white gerbera daisies, each with a chocolate-brown center, soften the roses' intensity, while lavender lisianthus buds intersperse subtle notes of romance and hope. Eucalyptus branches stretch outward, their cool silvery tones adding a refreshing modern edge, like the breeze in Norwood Park. Soft clusters of white filler blooms create a fluffy, cloudlike surround, while a structured collar of lush green leaves gives a professional finish. The gleaming glass vase below reveals strong stems submerged in clear water, signifying freshness and the care of a local florist. The bouquet's gentle scent carries whispers of rose and eucalyptus, making it an ideal arrangement for commemorating life's milestones or sending an elegant gesture of sympathy or joy. Designed with the discerning taste of Upper Norwood in mind, this bouquet is crafted to grace any home, from Alexandra Drive to Auckland Road.
VANITY FAIR
£50.00
As a florist deeply rooted in Upper Norwood's traditions, I seek the subtle balance of palette and feeling, beautifully captured in this radiant rose bouquet and chocolate pairing. The bouquet itself is a living composition: roses unfurl from tight centres in luminous coral, peach, and salmon, with the slightest wash of gold or cream glowing from within. Petals spiral outwards, shifting to rich, rosy pink and deeper coppery tones, creating a gentle, almost sunrise-like progression of colour-much like the ever-changing hues seen over the South Norwood Hill skyline. The blooms are densely nestled, a chorus of velvety softness framed by glossy, deep-green leaves that invoke the serene woodland of Upper Norwood's gardens. Set gracefully to the left is a Thorntons Orange Crisp chocolate pack-its gentle beige packaging inscribed with classic branding and an appetizing depiction of smooth truffles. Two perfectly rounded chocolates, their milk chocolate shells catching the light like chestnuts in autumn, rest before the pouch. This ensemble is designed not just for the eyes but for treasured moments: a birthday surprise on Central Hill, anniversary grace on Biggin Hill, or a thoughtful gesture to mark new beginnings. It offers a tactile blend of luxury and heartfelt artistry, carrying the fragrance, texture, and generosity that define Upper Norwood's unique community spirit.
SWEET SERENADE
£89.00
Staged against a crisp white background, this stunning arrangement from a local Upper Norwood florist brings together bold sunflowers and butter-yellow garden roses in a low, rounded glass vase. The sunflowers lift their deep gold faces skyward, evoking the warm light over Church Road on a summer morning. Between them, the roses unfold in plush spirals, their layered petals inviting touch. Glossy red hypericum berries weave playful pops of colour, reminiscent of the vibrant gatherings in Norwood's parks or cafés. Feathery green ferns and trailing foliage soften every edge, adding a sense of unhurried movement that echoes the breeze along Westow Hill. Here and there, slim golden spikes and muted eucalyptus leaves provide gentle contrast, mirroring the diverse beauty of local gardens. The arrangement's stems are clearly visible through the bowl-shaped vase, grounded in clean water that accentuates their fresh, verdant lines. This bouquet is a celebration of joy and friendship, crafted for Upper Norwood homes, family milestones, or simply infusing a space with the colour and spirit of summer's end-always available for same-day delivery to neighbours near Crystal Palace.
SUNNY FIELDS
£70.00
A lush, round arrangement that balances drama and delicacy: intense ruby and burgundy roses mingle seamlessly with pale lavender and mauve roses, each flower fully bloomed so the petals cup and spiral outward in soft, tactile layers. Dark, glossy greenery - likely Salal or Ruscus - creates a cool backdrop and gentle rustle, while the small, bright red-orange berries threaded through the bouquet offer a crisp, autumnal punctuation against the roses' velvety faces. The flowers are gathered in a bulbous, crackled mercury glass vase whose silvered surface glints in the light and echoes the bouquet's vintage elegance; a simple length of natural raffia is tied around its neck and a white rectangular gift tag hangs forward, bearing a tiny floral sketch and room for a short, handwritten note. Set on a pure white field, the arrangement's colours sing with clarity: the reds read deep and passionate, the lavenders calm and consoling, and the greens cool and restorative. Close your eyes and you can imagine the faint green-rose scent and the contrast between the satin softness of petals and the glossy firmness of berry skins. Crafted with the same care we bring to local deliveries around Westow Hill and Norwood High Street, the bouquet feels suited to anniversaries, quiet apologies, or an elegant 'thinking of you' - a composition that reads as romantic and refined yet warmly familiar to anyone who knows Upper Norwood streets and gardens.
LOVE & PASSION
£65.00
A hand-tied bouquet of pastel hydrangeas is carefully styled and photographed against a pristine white backdrop, its rounded shape and gentle colours giving it an air of refined calm. Dominating the arrangement are generous, globe-like hydrangea heads in pale pink, light sky blue, and creamy white, each one made up of countless tiny florets that layer over one another like fine fabric. The pink blooms bring a soft, affectionate warmth, evoking the charm of Upper Norwood's leafy residential streets in late spring. The blue hydrangeas introduce a cool, restful note reminiscent of distant views from the heights near Crystal Palace, while the white hydrangeas infuse the bouquet with brightness and a sense of purity that keeps the palette clean and balanced. Interlaced between these larger blooms are delicate sprigs of deep fuchsia filler flowers, possibly waxflowers, whose miniature blossoms cluster along thin stems, creating rhythmic dots of vivid colour that enliven the pastel tones. A rich mix of foliage frames the flowers: broad, glossy dark green leaves provide structure and depth, while smaller, lighter leaves soften the silhouette and lend a freshly gathered, garden-inspired feel, as if cut from a border near Norwood Recreation Ground. The stems are carefully gathered and tied, their trimmed ends visible at the base, ready for placing in a favourite vase. The lighting is gentle and even, emphasising the velvety textures of the petals and the subtle gleam on the leaves, with minimal shadow so the colours appear true and clear. Overall, the bouquet conveys quiet celebration and kindness, perfectly suited to birthdays, get-well wishes, or thoughtful same-day delivery around Upper Norwood.
FAIRYTALE BLISS
£60.00
A rich, spherical bouquet of roses in red, white, and royal blue fills the frame, glowing vividly against a clean white background that strips away distraction and lets the flowers speak for themselves. The arrangement is tightly composed into a rounded dome, suggesting thirty or more blooms, each one turned carefully to reveal its most beautiful angle. The red roses are deep crimson, their velvety petals densely layered and catching the light in subtle highlights and shadows. Nestled among them, ivory-white roses open in gradual spirals, some still partially closed so that the centres appear gently curled and sheltered. The blue roses bring a striking, contemporary twist: an intense, almost electric royal blue that adds a distinctly patriotic note, reminiscent of local gatherings, sporting celebrations, and community events around Upper Norwood, Gipsy Hill, and nearby Crystal Palace Triangle. Slivers of dark, glossy green foliage emerge at intervals from the mass of petals, giving the composition structure, depth, and a touch of wildness amidst the otherwise refined design. At the bottom, a cluster of stems is bound tightly together and cut to an even length, a hallmark of a hand-tied bouquet ready for same-day delivery across SE19, whether to a period townhouse or a modern apartment overlooking Norwood Park. The lighting is bright and neutral, enhancing the strong colour contrasts and the polished, celebratory mood, making this arrangement well suited to national holidays, commemorative services, or marking significant personal milestones with a sense of dignity and shared pride.
LIKE A ROYAL
£85.00
Set against a clean white backdrop, this hand-tied bouquet glows with a gentle palette of blush pinks, creamy whites, and leafy greens, the flowers arranged in a rounded, almost domed shape that looks both generous and carefully considered. At its heart are several full-bloomed cream roses, the petals unfurling in graceful layers that create a focal point of understated luxury. Around them cluster pink spray roses, some still tightly closed, others just starting to open, their small, cup-like shapes adding delicate texture and an air of anticipation, like the first blossoms appearing in gardens around Upper Norwood in early spring. Bright pink gerbera daisies break through the softer tones with their wide, radiating petals and deep coffee-coloured centres, giving the bouquet cheerful highlights that draw the eye. Light pink carnations, with their densely ruffled petals, provide cushiony volume and a tactile softness, evoking the feel of gently crumpled silk. Woven delicately between these larger blooms are white alstroemeria, each flower marked with subtle stripes and tiny speckles of reddish-brown, adding a layer of visual detail and refinement. Ethereal sprays of white gypsophila, or baby's breath, are scattered throughout, forming a haze of miniature blossoms that makes the bouquet feel airy rather than heavy. Fresh, glossy green foliage peeks from within, framing the pastel flowers and giving the arrangement a natural, garden-fresh feel. At the bottom, the stems are visible, neatly gathered and tied, highlighting the precision and skill of an experienced florist. The overall impression is one of romance and reassurance-a bouquet perfectly suited to sending gentle congratulations, comforting wishes, or expressions of love to homes and businesses throughout Upper Norwood, from Beulah Hill to the streets surrounding Crystal Palace Triangle.
AMALFI LOVE
£59.00
A serene, hand-tied bouquet in white, cream, and rich green sits against a bright white background, giving the flowers a calm, luminous presence. At its centre, full-headed ivory and creamy white roses unfurl layer upon layer of soft petals, each bloom forming a gentle spiral that suggests comfort, affection, and timeless romance. Cradling these roses are sculptural heads of ornamental cabbage, their deep emerald outer leaves clasping tightly ruffled hearts of pale green and yellow-green, adding a contemporary, textural note that feels right at home in stylish Upper Norwood apartments overlooking the London skyline. Around them, clusters of small white chrysanthemums and daisy-like flowers with subtle yellow or greenish centres bring a sense of lightness, like a scattering of wildflowers gathered after a wander through nearby Crystal Palace Triangle. Delicate, star-shaped blossoms-reminiscent of astrantia-are tucked between the larger flowers, lending intricate detail and a slightly wild, meadowy character that keeps the arrangement from feeling too formal. Fine hints of white alstroemeria, with their slender, trumpet-like petals and faint striping, peek through the greenery, rewarding a closer look. The bouquet is framed by an abundance of fresh foliage, with leaves in varying shades of green-from bright, almost lime tones to deeper, forest hues-creating depth, contrast, and a sense of natural movement. At the base, the stems are cleanly gathered and tied, showing off the craftsmanship of an experienced local florist. The overall impression is one of quiet sophistication and sincere emotion, suitable for comforting sympathy flowers, an understated bridal design, or a thoughtful gift delivered the same day across Upper Norwood and nearby streets.
AMAZON SANGRIA
£50.00
A carefully composed bouquet of white roses, pink alstroemeria, and delicate baby's breath is photographed against a clean white backdrop, giving it the look of a freshly arranged piece ready for delivery around Upper Norwood. The design is soft yet structured, with several full-bloom white roses arranged across the top of the dome. Their petals unfold in graceful curves, forming layered spirals that create subtle pockets of shadow and an impression of depth, while their centers show the faintest glow of pale yellow. Tucked between the roses, clusters of pink alstroemeria bring a cheerful, contemporary note. Each trumpet-shaped flower displays petals that transition from light pink at the edges to more saturated fuchsia and magenta closer to the center, finely decorated with streaks and tiny speckles that catch the light. Threads of Gypsophila wind delicately through the entire bouquet, their countless tiny white flowers forming a soft haze that unites the different blooms and adds a sense of airiness. Lush green leaves and foliage provide a fresh backdrop, framing the flowers and grounding the composition in rich, natural tones. At the base, the stems are clearly visible, trimmed evenly and bound together, creating a neat hand-tied finish that suggests expert craftsmanship from a local Upper Norwood florist. Bright, even lighting emphasizes the gentle contrast between creamy whites and vivid pinks, while the plain white background keeps all focus on the flowers. The overall feel is both romantic and joyful, perfect for celebrating milestones, marking anniversaries, sending birthday wishes, or simply brightening a home near Crystal Palace Park or along Westow Street.
AMOUR
£50.00
Bathed in clean daylight, this compact, rounded bouquet captures the sensation of a sunlit moment and the tactile pleasures of fresh stems brought together with care. Dominant orange and golden roses form a lush centre, their full, spiralled heads unfolding like small suns and releasing a gentle, classic rose scent that combines with the crisp, resinous aroma of eucalyptus. Plush carnations in coral and burnt-peach create a soft, ruffled halo around the roses, adding depth and the kind of density that makes the arrangement feel generous and comforting. Intermittent peach gerbera present open, paper-like petals that radiate outward and catch the eye with their bright, green-tinged centres, while tiny white filler flowers-resembling freesia or delicate spray blooms-lift the composition with points of bright contrast and an airy cadence. Wisps of pale green astrantia-style fillers peek through, lending a feathery, almost meadow-like texture, and the rounded, silvery eucalyptus leaves provide a calming counterpoint to the warm tones. The stems are bound carefully at the base in a traditional hand-tied manner, the arrangement photographed against white to emphasise colour, form and workmanship. As a local florist's piece, it feels at home in Upper Norwood: imagine it brightening a birthday table near Westow Street cafés or arriving as a thoughtful surprise to a neighbour on Anerley Road. The overall impression is joyful, artisanal and seasonally versatile-suitable for celebrations, thank-you gestures, or simply to bring a sunlit moment indoors.
BRIGHT KISS
£55.00
This image presents a heartfelt romantic scene, photographed against a clean white backdrop that emphasises every detail of the flowers and the cuddly companion beside them. On the left, a clear glass vase cradles a full bouquet of around twelve deep red roses, the sort of classic arrangement often chosen by couples in Upper Norwood to mark an anniversary or special date night. Each rose is richly coloured, with velvety petals that curl and fold into one another, creating round, full blooms that feel both luxurious and intimate. The roses vary in openness; some are fully unfurled, while others are still in that perfect in-between stage, suggesting romance that is continuing to blossom. Between the roses, airy tufts of white baby's breath weave through the arrangement, their tiny blossoms forming a delicate, cloud-like haze that softens the intensity of the red. Flecks of deep green foliage are visible here and there, providing structure and contrast, and reinforcing the sense of freshness one might associate with a same-day delivery from a trusted Upper Norwood florist. The vase's transparency allows the stems and water to be clearly seen, reminding the viewer of the natural simplicity beneath the elegance. To the right of the bouquet sits a medium-sized teddy bear with light brown plush fur, looking soft and welcoming. Its small black button eyes, neat embroidered nose, and subtle stitched smile give the bear a gentle, reassuring expression, as if ready to be hugged. Around its neck, a dark brown ribbon is tied in a tidy bow, adding a modest decorative touch. The pairing of opulent roses, soft white gypsophila, and an endearing teddy bear evokes themes of love, gratitude, and tender apologies-perfect for surprising someone in Upper Norwood, whether they live close to Church Road or near the leafy edges of Crystal Palace Park.
FOREVER & TEDDY BEAR
£80.00
A rounded, generously filled bouquet in cheerful yellows, crisp whites, and lively greens sits neatly in a clear, square glass vase, its stems visible through the water while the blooms seem to hover above a bright white backdrop. The arrangement is dominated by yellow roses whose velvety petals unfold in spirals, some fully open, others still in bud, adding a sense of movement and time. These roses are accompanied by smaller yellow spray roses that cluster close together, creating pockets of intense colour, like sunlit corners you might notice walking through Upper Norwood's residential streets. Interspersed among the yellow tones are white pompom chrysanthemums, compact and spherical, each bloom made up of countless tiny petals that create a soft, cushiony texture. Lime green button chrysanthemums peek through like tiny globes, lifting the entire palette with their fresh, zesty hue, while larger pale green blooms-carnation-like in their ruffles-add volume and a touch of gentle whimsy. Lush greenery provides contrast and support: broad variegated leaves with paler margins fan out around the edge, while darker, more delicate foliage weaves through the design, giving the bouquet depth and a natural, garden-inspired feel. Sprigs of tiny white filler flowers, scattered among the larger stems, resemble little stars, adding lightness and intricacy. Around the centre of the vase, a band of rustic, textured material-perhaps woven fibre or bark-is wrapped firmly, topped with a sleek lime green ribbon that mirrors the bright green flower heads above. The mood of this arrangement is bright yet soothing, ideal for a living room near Gipsy Hill, a welcoming accent on a shop counter along Westow Street, or a comforting gift for someone who needs a calm, hopeful reminder. It carries the quiet message of renewal and care, as if saying, "You're being thought of," in fresh, fragrant colour.
FRESH BLOSSOM
£64.50
This image shows a sophisticated bouquet photographed against a stark white backdrop, the simplicity of the setting allowing every floral detail to come forward clearly. At the heart of the arrangement, several large creamy white roses are fully open, their tightly layered petals forming generous spirals that suggest both tenderness and luxury. Woven between these roses are clusters of deep purple and magenta alstroemeria, the elongated, trumpet-like petals and fine interior markings bringing richness and contrast to the creamy tones. Fine sprays of white baby's breath are scattered throughout, their tiny blooms creating a soft haze that lightens the bouquet and adds a delicate, romantic atmosphere. Rising subtly among the larger flowers are green-white astrantia, with distinctive pincushion centres and slim, pointed bracts, introducing texture and a quiet, natural charm reminiscent of a walk through the greenery around Crystal Palace Park, just beyond Upper Norwood. The entire design is carefully framed by broad, dark green aspidistra leaves, artfully folded and wrapped around the base to form a smooth collar that accentuates the compact, rounded shape. The stems are tightly bound and neatly trimmed beneath, giving a glimpse of the precise hand-tied work that holds everything together. Soft, even lighting bathes the bouquet, highlighting the interplay of cream, purple, and green without casting heavy shadows. The result is a bouquet that feels calm, balanced, and refined - ideal for expressing sympathy, celebrating an anniversary, or adding a touch of classic elegance to homes and venues across Upper Norwood, from Church Road to the quiet residential streets climbing the hill.
IN THE STARS
£60.00
Captured against a bright white background, this chrysanthemum bouquet feels like a breath of fresh air drifting in from the heights of Upper Norwood. The main blooms are generous white and creamy-yellow chrysanthemums, their petals arranged in dense, layered rings that open outward from soft green or buttery centres, creating a lush, traditional silhouette. Sprigs of smaller white spray chrysanthemums weave through the arrangement, each slender petal and tiny central disk adding a note of delicacy and a gently scattered effect, as if the bouquet has been gathered from a particularly bountiful garden border. Among them, clusters of lime green pompon chrysanthemums stand out, their neat spherical shapes and tightly packed petals offering a bold yet cheerful contrast that brings modern character to the piece. Deep, rich green foliage curls and fans between the flowers, grounding the design and echoing the mature trees lining the streets around Crystal Palace Triangle. The stems are gathered together with care and wrapped at the base with a wide satin ribbon in bright lime green, tied into an elegant multi-loop bow that feels festive but not over-stated. The overall impression is one of serene freshness and quiet optimism, ideal for a "get well soon" delivery to a home near Gipsy Hill station, a calm focal point on a dining table after a busy day, or a gentle, respectful tribute to mark moments of remembrance. The bouquet's soft whites and lively greens work beautifully in both modern apartments and period houses that characterise Upper Norwood's varied streets.
LIME ZEST
£50.00
A generous bouquet of oriental lilies occupies the image, its round silhouette made luminous by a clean white background that highlights the interplay of white and deep pink blooms. The white lilies are a soft, creamy off-white with hints of pale green or buttery yellow at their throats; the pink flowers range from rose to intense fuchsia, their petals sometimes marked with lighter veins and a creamy centre that draws the eye inward. Several blossoms are fully unfurled, revealing star-like interiors populated by slender stamens tipped with delicate anthers, while other flowers remain long, tight buds-evidence of freshness that promises days of evolving beauty. Sprays of dark green, lance-like foliage thread through the bouquet, adding sculptural lines and a verdant counterpoint to the velvety petals. The arrangement rests in a simple clear glass vase placed low in the frame, its transparency offering a glimpse of trimmed stems and clean water and reinforcing the sense of meticulous florist craftsmanship. The lighting is bright and neutral, bringing out petal texture and the subtle sheen on the leaves, and the whole composition evokes a soft, uplifting fragrance one might experience in a sunlit kitchen near Gipsy Hill or a sitting room just off Anerley Road. This is an elegant choice for a thoughtful gift, a Mother's Day tribute, or an anniversary bouquet for someone in Upper Norwood, presented with the confident care local clients have come to expect from experienced florists.
MARVELOUS BLOOMS
£63.00
A carefully crafted bouquet is pictured upright against a bright white background, each bloom and leaf sharply defined as if arranged in a light-filled studio near the heart of Upper Norwood. At its centre, lush pink roses unfurl in soft spirals, their petals tightly layered at the core and gently curling at the edges, evoking a sense of elegance and affection. Flanking them, bold yellow gerbera daisies with dark chocolate-brown centres add a lively burst of sunshine, their wide petals radiating outward in smooth, even lines that immediately draw the eye. Rising from behind this cluster, tall, graceful stems of deep blue delphiniums provide a cool, vertical accent, their many tiny florets echoing memories of summer walks near Crystal Palace and the expansive views over London. Surrounding these focal flowers is a rich cloak of greenery. Fine, feathery fern fronds peek from beneath and around the blooms, introducing a light, airy texture, while more substantial, glossy dark green leaves create a solid foundation and reflect gentle highlights. Tucked between the larger stems, compact tufts of bright green, almost moss-like filler add texture and fullness, making the bouquet look lush and freshly gathered. Thin, pale green stems tipped with small, unopened buds weave upward, adding subtle height and a whisper of new beginnings. At the lower edge of the flower cluster, broad, curved leaves with delicate lighter stripes are wrapped into a neat collar, cupping the blooms like a natural frame. Below this structured ring of foliage, straight stems are drawn together and wrapped in a soft cream or pale green material, tied simply to suggest a hand-tied design, ready to be carried through Upper Norwood streets or delivered to mark a birthday, thank-you, or quiet celebration at home.
NATURAL POETRY
£60.00
The bouquet shown is a lush, rounded hand-tied design set against a bright white background, allowing its soft pink and lavender tones to stand out with elegance. Dominating the arrangement are two ample heads of blush pink hydrangea, their globes of closely packed petals forming a luxurious, cushion-like texture that feels both abundant and tender. Tucked between these hydrangeas are classic light pink roses, some fully bloomed with their layered spirals unfurled, others still in tighter bud form, adding a sense of rhythm and quiet anticipation to the design. Slender, arching stems of bell-shaped flowers in pastel lavender and gentle lilac emerge gracefully from among the larger blooms, evoking campanula or bellflowers and bringing a touch of airy, almost wildflower charm. Threaded throughout are smaller clusters of deeper fuchsia and rich pink filler blossoms, perhaps waxflower or a phlox-style bloom, which provide intricate detail and create small bursts of colour that deepen the overall palette. Surrounding and supporting the flowers, fresh green foliage and young buds break up the pinks and purples with vibrant contrast, giving the sense of a bouquet freshly gathered from a garden overlooking Upper Norwood's hills or near the paths that wind through Norwood Grove. The stems are gathered neatly at the base, tied in a traditional hand-tied style that showcases the craftsmanship of a skilled local florist. This bouquet feels gentle yet joyful, perfect for Upper Norwood flower delivery when you want to celebrate a birthday, mark an anniversary, welcome a new baby, or simply brighten a loved one's home with a comforting wash of soft colour.
PINK CASHMERE
£59.00
An elegant hand-tied bouquet overflowing with pink, mauve, and purple blooms rests against a bright white background, its rounded shape and intricate textures echoing the careful work of a seasoned Upper Norwood florist. At the heart of the design, soft pastel pink roses open slowly, their velvety petals arranged in layered spirals that move from deeper rose at the centre to softer, almost cream-tinted edges. These romantic blooms are complemented by full, frilled carnations in dusty rose and muted mauve, their ruffles adding a plush, tactile dimension that invites the viewer to imagine running a hand gently over the flowers. Piercing through this softness are slender, upright spires of deep lavender-blue Veronica, their graceful lines adding height and visual rhythm much like the tree silhouettes seen along Beulah Hill at dusk. Woven between the main flowers, clusters of rich purple lisianthus and clouds of tiny star-shaped asters in light lavender and periwinkle bring a sense of airiness, as if wildflowers had been gathered thoughtfully and refined into a polished bouquet. The foliage is richly layered yet controlled: vivid lime-green filler provides refreshing bursts of colour, while eucalyptus and other cool, sage-green leaves in varied shapes soften the edges and lend a gentle, aromatic presence. The stems, all neatly aligned and bound at the base, emphasise the hand-crafted nature of the arrangement and its readiness to be placed directly into a favourite vase on a mantle or dining table near Crystal Palace Triangle. The overall impression is of a luxurious yet approachable bouquet, perfect for marking meaningful milestones, offering sympathy with grace, or sending a sophisticated thank-you across Upper Norwood.
SPRING CHARM
£57.00
A meticulously composed display of white lilies stands proud in a classic clear glass vase against an unblemished white backdrop, the kind of arrangement a local florist in Upper Norwood might place on a mantel or beside a bedside. The blooms present multiple smooth, overlapping petals that unfurl in gentle curves, each petal a brilliant, luminous white graduating inward to a soft cream-yellow at the throat, which gives the flowers a quiet warmth. Slender stamens with pale green filaments and warm brown anthers project from the centers, their lines offering fine, tactile contrast to the petals' broad sweeps. Rich, dark green lanceolate leaves are artfully threaded through the bouquet, their glossy texture and deep hue framing the white flowers and lending the arrangement depth and volume. Clear water within the vase shows the neatly trimmed, pale green stems and produces small reflections of light, emphasizing both freshness and careful floral handling. One can almost sense the lilies' subtle perfume-fresh, sweet, and reassuring-filling a calm room on a morning walk from Westow Hill to Crown Point. This arrangement reads as both dignified and uplifting, suitable for occasions of remembrance, an elegant housewarming gift for a neighbour near Norwood Road, or a refined centrepiece that whispers thoughtful sentiment rather than shouting it. The photograph's simple white background ensures every tactile and chromatic detail is clear to the eye and to the mind.
STRIKING BEAUTY
£65.00
A striking bunch of pink oriental lilies sits upright in a clear glass vase, photographed against a crisp white studio background to showcase each botanical detail with exacting clarity. The bouquet features numerous fully opened flowers, their wide, star-shaped petals ranging from deep fuchsia at the edges to softer rosy pinks and pale cream toward the throat, where a splash of chartreuse-yellow breathes life into the centre. Dark, almost burgundy stamens stand in contrast, their pollen-laden tips adding a tactile sense of vitality. Interspersed are multiple buds - slim and pale to taut and magenta, some with tiny green tips - that promise several more days of blossoming, a hallmark of a carefully chosen cut-lily selection. Robust green leaves and erect stems provide a rich, dark backdrop that accentuates the vivid pinks and gives the arrangement architectural balance. The clear vase shows the trimmed stems and water below, signaling the flowers' freshness and the careful handling typical of a studio shoot designed to highlight longevity and form. Soft reflections on the glass and the subtle sheen on the petals convey texture and scent, inviting the viewer to imagine the lilies' sweet, enveloping fragrance. This composition feels both celebratory and contemplative - suited to a birthday table, a Mother's Day surprise, or a quiet expression of sympathy - and would arrive beautifully to homes across Upper Norwood, from Westow Hill flats to houses near Crown Lane, where local customers often appreciate long-lasting, elegant blooms.
VIBRANT DELIGHT
£60.00
A richly coloured bouquet of roses, tightly gathered into a generous dome, stands out vividly against a pristine white background, as if placed on a studio table in Upper Norwood moments before delivery. The roses are arranged so closely that they form an almost continuous surface of petals, a tapestry of reds, yellows, oranges, pinks, creams, and magentas that blend together yet still retain their individual beauty. Deep ruby and wine-red blooms provide a romantic core, while bright golden and lemon-yellow roses introduce notes of joy; warm orange petals bring a sense of sunset glow, and gentle pastel pinks and creamy whites soften the palette. Scattered among them, fuchsia roses offer bright flashes of colour that enliven the whole design. Each flower head is captured at a flattering moment: some fully open with layered, velvety petals spreading wide, others midway through unfurling, with their inner spirals still tight and intriguing. Between the blooms, pockets of lush, dark green foliage appear, adding structure and a cool contrast that enhances the vibrancy of the colours. Below the floral dome, long, straight stems are brought neatly together and bound with a green and white checked ribbon, suggesting the careful, hand-tied craftsmanship of a local shop like Florist Upper Norwood. The stems extend beyond the tie and gently fan out where they meet the white surface, giving the arrangement a natural, slightly relaxed stance. The light is clean and bright, allowing you to sense the softness of the petals and the freshness of the greenery. The bouquet's atmosphere is one of celebration and affection, ideal for a special delivery to a home off Church Road or a surprise gift after a walk near Crystal Palace Park.
WAIKIKI SUNSET
£69.00
This lush, hand-tied bouquet is described as if I had just arranged it at Florist Upper Norwood, with careful attention to balance and scent for local deliveries around Church Road and the Triangle. Dominating the composition is a bright lime-green hydrangea whose dense cluster of petals forms a soft, cloud-like centre; it anchors an ensemble of blooms chosen for contrast and harmony. Deep red roses offer a velvety, dramatic counterpoint to delicate pastel-pink and cream roses whose petals open in softer, more romantic spirals. Coral-pink carnations, with their crinkled, frilly edges, introduce a cheerful, tactile note and warmth across the mid-layer of the bouquet. Cool, metallic blue-grey Eryngium thistles (sea holly) add a contemporary, architectural edge - their spiky, star-like heads giving the arrangement an intriguing, slightly wild silhouette. Rounding the composition are long, lively blades of grass or narrow green foliage that create dynamic lines, and abundant silvery-green eucalyptus whose rounded leaves add a modern, aromatic layer that smells faintly citrus and mint when handled. The stems are hand-gathered and bound with a natural tie, the trimmed green stems visible beneath, a testament to traditional floristry craft. Photographed on a bright white backdrop, the colours pop vividly and the textures are easy to read; this bouquet suits celebrations from birthdays to anniversaries, or as an elegant centrepiece for a kitchen table in a cosy Upper Norwood home.
WILD AT HEART
£59.00
Visualise holding this sumptuous bouquet curated by seasoned Upper Norwood floral artisans, its tactile richness welcoming you like a friend's embrace near the bustling Triangle. The velvety petals of deep red roses and organza-like chrysanthemums are set off by the peachy glow of apricot roses, which illuminate the core with a gentle, sunlit hue that ripples through the arrangement. Breezy tufts of white gypsophila drift among the blooms, as delicate as early mist over Norwood Park, offering a soft counterpoint to the bouquet's passionate reds. Anchored in a crystal-clear vase, robust stems soak in pure water, their health and freshness on display-a silent promise reminiscent of the renewal found at nearby Gipsy Hill allotments. Each element is purposefully chosen and arranged, resulting in a harmonised display that brings immediate joy and a touch of luxury. Perfect as a centrepiece for celebratory dinners, milestone birthdays, or meaningful moments with loved ones in Upper Norwood, this bouquet's aroma delicately blends fresh greenery with the sweet perfume of just-cut roses. Close your eyes, and you can almost sense the blooms sending quiet congratulations or lighting up the day with natural, heartfelt beauty-a true testament to the art of local floristry.
WONDROUS BLOOMS
£50.00
Presented in a clean, transparent vase that reveals neatly trimmed stems and fresh water, this tall arrangement centres on a voluminous cluster of vivid blue hydrangeas whose tightly grouped florets create a plush, tactile focal point. Encircling the hydrangea's base are several creamy white roses, their petals unfolding in soft, layered spirals that catch a soft studio light and read as warm, inviting surfaces against the cool blue. Above and weaving through the composition, pristine white calla lilies stand with sculptural grace; each trumpet-shaped bloom reflects light like fine porcelain, introducing a refined vertical rhythm. Slim stalks of white snapdragons (or stock) push up through the upper tiers, contributing narrow, whimsical spikes that contrast pleasantly with the roundness of the hydrangeas. Dark, glossy foliage-probably salal-grounds the bouquet while delicate fern fronds trail and feather near the vase's rim, offering a garden-fresh softness. The textures here range from velvety to satiny to crisp, and though the scent is understated, the bouquet communicates quiet elegance and comfort. This composition feels particularly suited to sympathy or remembrance, as well as thoughtful celebrations such as birthdays and anniversaries where a restrained, sophisticated statement is desired. As a florist who knows Upper Norwood's streets and subtle seasonal moods-picture it delivering calm to a home off Westow Hill or brightening a bedside in Anerley Hill-this arrangement reads as both professionally crafted and warmly personal. Its clear vase and serene colour palette make it easy to place in any living room, church reception, or event table without overpowering the space.
