A carefully designed funeral cross in crisp white and royal blue lies diagonally across a bright white background, its simplicity highlighting the care that has gone into every flower and ribbon fold. The entire cross shape is completely padded with small, round white spray chrysanthemums, each bloom placed tightly side by side to form a smooth, plush surface reminiscent of fresh snow. The petals appear soft and slightly curved, creating a gentle, comforting texture that conveys purity and peace. Along the outer edge, an expert border of deep cobalt blue satin ribbon has been meticulously pleated and secured, forming a continuous frame that defines the cross and adds a dignified contrast to the white flowers. At the centre junction, a rich cluster of royal blue blooms stands out: full, frilled blue carnations or possibly dyed chrysanthemums mingle with upright florets that resemble blue delphinium or orchid spikes, giving vertical interest and a sense of lift. Interwoven among these blue flowers are dark green fern fronds and broader foliage, their differing shades and shapes providing natural depth and a slightly woodland feel. Down the vertical arm, the word "DAD" is artfully spelled out using loops of the same satin ribbon, each letter resting clearly atop the chrysanthemum cushion, offering a deeply personal note of remembrance. The lighting is even and soft, casting only a light shadow around the edges to emphasise the three-dimensional construction. This classic sympathy arrangement, often chosen by families in Catford and nearby Hither Green, would make a thoughtful tribute at a church service, crematorium chapel, or graveside committal for a beloved father. Prepared by local florists used to serving families across SE6, it speaks quietly of respect, devotion, and lasting memory.

A large, elegant floral cross created as a memorial for a father is displayed on a pristine white background, photographed from overhead so its proportions and detailing are easy to imagine. The foundational shape of the cross is completely covered with compact white spray chrysanthemums, arranged so closely that they form a thick, cushion-like bed of petals with a soft, velvety appearance. Surrounding this pure white centre is a neatly folded ribbon border in deep royal blue satin, the slightly glossy fabric catching the light and creating a refined, formal outline to the cross. At the central intersection, where the vertical and horizontal arms meet, sits a prominent cluster of blue flowers: lush, ruffled blue carnations and more delicate, feathery blooms similar to blue delphinium or orchid blossoms, all nestled into a collar of dark green fern and shining foliage. This central spray of blue and green rises slightly above the level of the chrysanthemum base, adding dimension and drawing the eye inward. Along the vertical stem of the cross, the word "DAD" has been lovingly fashioned from the same royal blue ribbon, the letters formed with graceful loops and carefully positioned folds that rest on the white floral bed. The overall mood of the design is serene and reverent, with the blue and white palette suggesting peace and remembrance. This type of floral tribute, often requested for services in Catford, Mountsfield Park's vicinity, or churches along the South Circular, would be a meaningful choice for families wishing to honour a much-loved father with a personalised, hand-crafted funeral arrangement.

    The tribute was perfect. I requested to have the ribbon color changed and they were nice enough to arrange that. Good florists.
