FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY BASKET
£60.00
A light, off-white woven basket with a high, curved handle is filled to overflowing with a thoughtful funeral flower arrangement, presented against a clean white backdrop that lets every bloom in this Temple tribute be clearly seen. At the heart of the design rests a single, creamy white rose, its petals smoothly coiled and softly opening, symbolising purity and a gentle goodbye. On either side, deep purple calla lilies rise with understated drama, their satin-like trumpets bending gracefully, adding depth and a sense of solemn elegance that would feel at home in a quiet service near Temple Church. Interspersed throughout are delicate clematis blossoms in soft lavender and pale lilac, each star-shaped petal leading into a tiny yellow centre, like small lights scattered through the arrangement. Cheerful notes of yellow and white from freesia- or alstroemeria-style flowers offer a touch of hope and comfort, preventing the design from feeling too heavy, while still keeping a respectful tone. A single magenta gerbera daisy emerges from the right side, its bold circle of petals adding a poignant highlight, reminiscent of cherished memories that stand out clearly over time. All of these flowers are supported by generous greenery-broad, glossy foliage and finer, lighter sprigs-creating a full, rounded shape that fills the basket without looking crowded. A soft shadow anchors the basket to the surface, lending realism and calm. This carefully crafted composition speaks of remembrance, support, and quiet strength, suitable for funeral services, memorials, or condolence deliveries across Temple and nearby Fleet Street addresses.
TREASURED MOMENTS BASKET
£65.00
Set against a bright, uncluttered white background, this funeral flower basket feels like a moment of calm carefully captured in petals and leaves. A light beige, woven wicker basket, elongated and gently oval, rises into a matching handle that arcs gracefully above the flowers, framing the arrangement like a subtle halo. Inside, the design is lush yet composed: large creamy white roses open fully, their petals soft and velvety, forming rounded cups that speak of tenderness and respect. Between them, rare-looking clematis blooms in pale lavender and muted periwinkle unfurl their pointed, star-shaped petals, each one centred with a ring of yellow-green stamens that glows softly against the cooler tones. Clusters of delicate white and pale yellow freesia-style flowers, some still in tight buds and others just beginning to open, weave through the composition, adding fine texture and a suggestion of gentle perfume. Ruffled white filler blossoms similar to lisianthus fill the spaces, ensuring there is no harsh edge, only smooth transitions of shape and shade. The entire dome of flowers rests on a bed of dark, glossy green foliage, with broad leaves and slender stems radiating outwards, enhancing the sense of freshness and giving the pastels a rich backdrop. The palette of cream, white, soft yellow and lavender feels contemplative and soothing, ideal for a tribute sent from Temple to a nearby church service or memorial gathering along Fleet Street. Crafted with the eye of a local florist who understands the quiet moments our city holds, this basket seems designed to sit peacefully at a service or by a photograph, offering a gentle expression of sympathy and remembrance.
PEACE & PURITY BASKET
£65.00
A softly spoken funeral flower basket is presented on a clean white background, its colours and shapes thoughtfully balanced to offer comfort to grieving families in Temple and the nearby Inns of Court. The basket itself is fashioned from pale, natural wood, shallow yet wide, with small feet that lift it lightly from the surface and an off-white handle arching protectively over the blooms. Inside, the flowers are arranged in a rounded, almost cushion-like mound, giving a sense of fullness and quiet generosity. Creamy white roses open gracefully at the heart of the design, each bloom composed of layered, velvety petals that suggest peace, honour, and remembrance. Around them, deep red carnations form rich pockets of colour, their tightly ruffled petals adding texture and the emotional depth of love and devotion. Pale pink and white bi-coloured carnations appear here and there, their petals streaked and edged with soft reds, introducing a more personal, tender note. Finer details reveal clusters of delicate white freesias, their slim stems and bell-shaped flowers adding movement and a whispered hint of fragrance. A bed of glossy, dark green leaves anchors the composition, while feathery sprigs of fern-like foliage lift and soften the edges, giving the arrangement a natural, garden-like feel. Crafted as one might prepare flowers for a quiet service near Temple Church or along the Embankment, this basket feels appropriate for saying a gentle goodbye, sending condolences to a family home, or placing on a remembrance table. It communicates respect, love, and solace without overwhelming, letting the flowers speak with calm sincerity.
REMEMBRANCE BASKET
£60.00
A beautifully rounded bouquet sits alone against a clean white backdrop, its shape almost like a soft, blooming dome crafted by a careful hand in a Temple studio. The flowers are massed closely together, so the eye travels over a continuous tapestry of petals, leaves, and berries without interruption. At the core, generous garden roses unfold in gentle spirals of blush pink, warm yellow, and creamy peach, some blooms fully open and lush, others just beginning to open, holding a sense of promise. Threaded among them are airy clematis flowers in pale lavender and soft white, their star-like petals splaying outward around yellow centres, adding a fresh, garden-grown feel that recalls hidden courtyards off the Embankment. Among the softness, blue eryngium-sea holly-rises up in sculptural tufts, their metallic blue heads and spiky collars introducing a cool, modern edge that contrasts beautifully with the romantic roses. Deep purple lisianthus, from tight ruffled buds to open, cup-shaped flowers, deepen the colour story and add a velvety richness. Scattered throughout, glossy red hypericum berries cluster in tiny sprays, bright accents that catch the light and add a playful rhythm to the design. The whole arrangement rests in a cradle of lush greenery: broad, lacquered leaves anchor the base, while delicate, feathery sprigs weave through the bouquet, and hints of darker burgundy foliage bring a subtle, moody undertone. The lighting is even and soft, highlighting natural textures-the silky rose petals, the prickly eryngium, the smooth berries. This bouquet feels like a celebration captured in flowers, ideal for sending warm congratulations to a Temple law office, marking a birthday near the Royal Courts of Justice, or simply bringing a gentle burst of colour and fragrance into a quiet City of London flat.

COMPASSION POSY
COMPASSION POSY
£90.00
A lush, domed bouquet of lilies and roses is shown against a spotless white background, as if resting on the counter of a Temple flower studio moments before delivery. The eye is first drawn to the pristine white lilies, their wide trumpet petals opening like quiet exclamations of grace, a hint of green at their base adding depth and natural warmth. Between them, blush pink roses and soft cream roses nestle together, some just beginning to unfurl, others fully open with velvety spirals that seem to invite the fingertips to trace each petal. In vivid contrast, rich fuchsia and deep magenta Oriental lilies, similar to Stargazers, flare at the centre with speckled petals and bright golden stamens, bringing a sense of theatre and passion to the arrangement. Fine sprays of white baby's breath weave through the bouquet like a veil, softening every line and creating a romantic haze reminiscent of wedding portraits taken around Temple Gardens or along the Embankment at dusk. Slender green leaves and stems appear here and there, grounding the design and suggesting the crisp scent of freshly cut foliage. The even lighting heightens every colour and texture, making the flowers appear almost touchable. This bouquet feels ideal for heartfelt occasions in and around Temple-an anniversary surprise to a chambers on King's Bench Walk, a wedding gift delivered to a nearby registry office, or a radiant expression of affection for someone who loves elegant, timeless blooms that blend London sophistication with gentle romance.
