GERMINI
A radiant bouquet of Gerbera daisies, styled with an air of refined exuberance, graces the scene in the gentle daylight often seen along Poverest Road in St Paul's Cray. This striking arrangement features large, open-faced daisies in rich yellows, bright oranges, and the luxurious depth of magenta or fuchsia, each bloom centered with a dramatic dark core that sharpens their brilliance. Nestled among the blooms are clusters of verdant foliage, their cool green tones adding both contrast and a fresh, earthy scent. The flowers are hand-tied and embraced by a rustic wrap of brown kraft paper, whose spun texture adds an inviting, natural warmth. Over this, a shimmering layer of crinkled cellophane envelops the bouquet, tracing the gentle outline of the blossoms and reflecting soft highlights. The stems rest elegantly in a clear, minimalist vase, fresh water sustaining their vibrancy-clearly visible as evidence of their just-gathered freshness. Around the base, a twine bow gathers the stems, and a dainty rectangular tag, adorned with a simple rose illustration, hints at the thoughtful gesture within. This composition summons the spirit of St Paul's Cray: joyful, welcoming, and crafted for special moments-ideal as a celebratory gift, a centrepiece for Sunday gatherings, or simply a way to brighten a local home on a misty morning.

ENGAGED DUO
£65.00
In this softly lit scene, a joyful bouquet bursts with colour and texture, as if it has just been set down in a bright living room overlooking the quiet streets of St Paul's Cray. The eye is immediately drawn to the bold gerbera daisies in deep magenta, each flower a perfect circle of smooth petals surrounding a dark, velvety centre that adds depth and drama. Threaded between them are dainty yet vivid chrysanthemums, their petals cleverly tipped in white so that the rich purple shades seem to glow around sunny yellow centres, creating a starburst effect. Nestled gently among these lively companions are creamy white roses, their petals layered and satiny, suggesting tenderness and a hint of classic romance, ideal for a birthday surprise or a just-because delivery to a friend near Orpington High Street. Wisps of tiny white baby's breath weave through the composition, softening the transitions between colours and giving the bouquet a light, cloudlike halo. Fresh green leaves emerge here and there, their crisp texture anchoring the arrangement and lending a sense of just-cut freshness from a local florist's workbench. All the stems are gathered in a rounded, clear glass vase, the water inside sparkling slightly, while a wrap of rustic twine is tied around the neck, finished with a simple white tag bearing a stylised pink rose and green lettering. To the right, a gleaming foil balloon in a heart shape floats slightly forward, edged in reflective silver and filled with an upbeat message, "Love n' Hugs 24-7," spelled out in playful, patterned letters of pink, purple, and blue. Set on a pale, uncluttered surface with a glowing, blurred background hinting at a sunlit window, the whole scene radiates warmth and affection, like a thoughtfully chosen gift arriving the same day in St Paul's Cray.
LOVE AND HUGS
£65.00
Bathed in clear, natural light against a brilliant white backdrop, this hand-tied arrangement reads like a pocket of sunshine culled from a local market stall on St Paul's Cray High Street. As a florist who often sources stems near the River Cray, I describe the centerpiece roses first-broad, fully opened blooms in deep orange and sunlit golden-yellow whose sweet, heady perfume anchors the bouquet. Plush coral and peach carnations surround them, their ruffled layers adding a soft, generous texture that invites touch. Gerbera daisies-some in muted peach with pale green eyes, others in vivid orange-offer playful faces that brighten the composition. Scattered among these larger forms are small white accent blooms, reminiscent of freesia or tiny spray carnations, which lift the palette and introduce an airy, elegant brightness. Feathery, pale-green astrantia-like clusters and delicate filler stems peek through, giving the bouquet depth and movement, while rounded eucalyptus leaves in silvery-green provide cool contrast and a soothing, resinous fragrance. The stems are expertly gathered and tied at the base in a neat hand-tied fashion, designed to sit cleanly in a vase or to be carried to a celebration. This arrangement, prepared with local sensibility and seasonal awareness, is available for thoughtful delivery across St Paul's Cray and nearby Orpington; it feels equally at home as a birthday gift, an anniversary surprise, or a warm 'thinking of you' gesture. Florist St Paul's Cray crafts it with the same care we bring to every order along the High Street.
BRIGHT KISS
£55.00
A carefully composed white floral wrist corsage is shown resting at a slight angle on a fair-toned forearm against stark white surroundings that highlight texture and form. Dominating the arrangement is a vibrant white Gerbera daisy, its abundant petals arranged in concentric layers around a bright lime-yellow and green center that reads like a tiny sunburst. Nestled close are soft, rounded clusters of white spray flowers - delicate chrysanthemums or budding lisianthus - that provide a gentle, cloud-like counterpoint to the Gerbera's architectural petals. Beneath and around the blooms, rich, deep green ruscus leaves arch outward, their smooth, glossy finish adding depth and a natural frame to the composition. The ensemble is fastened to the wrist by multiple strands of small, pearlescent beads, the bracelet-style band lending a classic, heirloom quality while keeping the stems secure and the profile elegant. You can almost sense the cool, clean scent of fresh-cut petals and leaves and the soft, papery texture of the Gerbera when you imagine lifting the wrist. Suited to weddings, proms or milestone ceremonies, this corsage was crafted with local care - Florist St Paul's Cray prepares similar pieces for occasions across the Cray Valley and nearby Bexley events - and conveys a gentle, timeless grace that photographs beautifully under soft morning light.
DREAM COME TRUE WEDDING CORSAGE
£72.00
This photograph presents a comforting, celebratory 'Good Luck' ensemble that feels hand-tied in a small St Paul's Cray workshop on a quiet morning. Dominating the left side of the frame is a lush bouquet set in a simple clear glass vase, its cylindrical form visible beneath a neat twine knot around the neck. The bouquet blends soft peach and pale pink roses with peachy-orange Gerbera daisies whose dark brown centres add a grounding contrast. Fragrant clusters of delicate white baby's breath thread through the composition like airy lace, while small white and lime-green chrysanthemum-type blooms bring fresh, crisp highlights. Rich green foliage frames the flowers and gives the arrangement a natural, garden-picked appearance. In the foreground, overlapping the lower right of the vase, a shiny silver foil balloon gleams with reflective sheen and playful graphics: tiny hearts, stars, dots and cross shapes in bright hues scatter across the surface, and the cheerful message "Good Luck!" arcs in multicoloured, bouncy type. The two letter-o's in "Good" are replaced by two sunny yellow smiley faces-one winking, one sticking its tongue out-adding a cheeky, human element. The clean white background and soft, even lighting focus attention on texture and tone-the velvet of petals, the papery disk of gerbera centers, the smooth metal sheen of the balloon-making this arrangement an ideal uplifting gift for someone leaving for a new role, sitting exams, or moving house near Foots Cray Meadows or along the High Street.
GOOD LUCK COMBO
£60.00
I pictured this arrangement to marry polished restraint with a playful pop of colour: creamy, almost porcelain-white roses sit among exuberant purple-pink gerbera daisies so that romance and cheer exist side by side. The roses are tightly furled at their centres and unfurl in layered petals that whisper of classic gardens, while the gerberas deliver effusive energy - broad magenta petals radiating from dark, intricate discs that catch the light like tiny, cheerful faces. Sprays of Alstroemeria (Peruvian lilies) in deep purples and fuchsia weave through the main blooms; their trumpet shapes and delicate speckled markings introduce a softly exotic texture that keeps the eye moving. Lush green foliage, a mixture of glossy broad leaves and finer, linear greenery, provides structure and a fresh, cool counterpoint that enhances each petal's hue. The bouquet is photographed against a bright white background with a subtle suggestion of a clear glass vase at the bottom, which allows the saturated colours to sing without distraction. In a gentle morning light this composition reads as a refreshing breath - ideal for brightening someone's day, offering congratulations, or adding modern floral warmth to a dining table in St Paul's Cray or a nearby sitting room. As a local florist's design, it balances expert craftsmanship with the kind of friendly exuberance that suits community gatherings, small celebrations, or thoughtful deliveries around the high street.
MESMERIZING HARMONY
£49.00
Brought to life with the eye of an experienced neighbourhood florist, this joyful birthday arrangement balances romance and fun in equal measure. Soft pink roses form the arrangement's romantic core, each bloom opened to reveal layered, satiny petals that move from delicate blush at the edges to a deeper pink near the heart; interspersed among them are generous pale-pink Gerbera daisies, their radial petals and warm yellow-green centres offering a fresh, optimistic counterpoint. Clusters of vivid purple statice or limonium are threaded throughout, their crisp, papery texture and concentrated colour creating pockets of contrast and visual rhythm. Small white spray flowers and a variety of glossy green foliage-broad leaves and slender stems-give the bouquet fullness and a natural silhouette. Everything sits in a clear glass vase with a slightly wider base so the stems and clear water remain visible, reinforcing the clean, just-arrived-from-the-market freshness. Tucked to the right is a cheerful cake-shaped Mylar balloon: a white frosted design trimmed in blue piped 'icing,' scattered rainbow sprinkles, and four brightly striped candles with yellow flame tips; the phrase "Happy Birthday" stretches across the front in playful, multi-coloured letters, with a small 'KALEIDOSCOPE' logo at the bottom. Prepared locally by Florist St Paul's Cray, this arrangement is well suited for deliveries across St Paul's Cray, the Cray Valley and nearby Orpington-an elegant, heartfelt present that reads as both pretty and celebratory.
PINK DAZE & BIRTHDAY BALLOON
£70.00
An exuberant birthday scene features a luxurious pink flower arrangement paired with a cheerful foil balloon, styled as though it's ready to be hand-delivered to a doorstep in St Paul's Cray. Center stage is a tall, clear glass vase brimming with stems and water, topped by a carefully shaped bouquet that feels both modern and romantic. Large Gerbera daisies in strong magenta and deep fuchsia command attention, their dark, almost chocolate-coloured centres creating a striking contrast with the bright petals. Between these, soft pink roses in differing stages of bloom add a layered, storytelling quality: some are tight buds, others loosen into spirals of petal that suggest gentle fragrance and tenderness. Fine clusters of rich purple filler flowers weave around the larger blooms, introducing depth and an almost cloud-like softness. A collar of vibrant green foliage encircles the flowers, the leaves overlapping to build a lush, full silhouette that hints at skilled local craftsmanship. The stems are wrapped at the base with pale, translucent pink cellophane that catches and diffuses the light, forming a delicate halo around the arrangement. Around the vase neck, a piece of rustic twine holds a small cream gift tag, adorned with a subtle rose logo that suggests a high-end florist and a thoughtfully chosen present. Just in front and slightly to the right, a round Mylar balloon adds a playful flourish. Its white surface is sprinkled with grey and decorated with bright, cartoon-style flowers and circular patterns in yellow, blue, lime green, pink, and purple. Bold pink cursive lettering across the middle reads "happy birthday," echoing the joyful feeling of the bouquet. The softly out-of-focus indoor background, likely a light-filled room off a quiet St Paul's Cray street, keeps the composition intimate and celebratory, ideal for marking milestones and special birthdays nearby.
SORBET & BALLOON
£73.00
A light, natural wicker basket brimming with white and green flowers is photographed against a bright white backdrop, its rustic texture and gentle curves easy to imagine under your fingertips. The basket, woven from pale straw-coloured wicker, has a sturdy arched handle and is dressed with a nostalgic red and white checkered ribbon tied neatly at the front, the bow resting just where the weave tightens. The arrangement feels like something a local St Paul's Cray florist might prepare for an intimate anniversary dinner at home off Main Road: thoughtful, balanced, and quietly luxurious. Inside, tall stems of lily buds rise above the rest, still mostly closed, their creamy white petals wrapped in pale green sheaths that speak of blossoms still to come. Between them, several white Gerbera daisies open fully, with crisp petals radiating out from deep brown centres, creating clear focal points. Around these, pale green and soft ivory lisianthus flowers form gentle ruffles, filling the gaps and softening the structure. A single calla lily, sleek and sculptural, curves gracefully from the greenery, its pure white funnel contrasting with the more textured blooms. The base is richly padded with foliage: silvery-blue eucalyptus discs, variegated green and white leaves that may trail slightly over the rim, and broader, darker green leaves that give depth and shadow. The overall impression is fresh and serene, like a cool breath of morning air drifting across a garden near St Mary Cray Country Park. This wicker basket arrangement would be ideal for anniversaries, quiet celebrations, or as a comforting, elegant gift delivered across St Paul's Cray to express appreciation, remembrance, or gentle encouragement.
SWEET MOMENTS BASKET
£65.00
A joyful, textural arrangement presented on a crisp white background, composed by an experienced hand with attention to balance and local sensibility from Florist St Paul's Cray. At first glance the bouquet is a sunlit chorus of yellow Asiatic lilies - some fully unfurled with freckled throats and others held as upward buds - which lend a soft, honeyed fragrance that drifts through the composition. Muted lavender-purple roses settle into the central bowl, their velvety spirals cooling the palette and offering a quiet, romantic focal point. Vivid orange Gerbera daisies, with their broad petal faces and darker centers, punctuate the scene like cheerful exclamation marks, while orange and golden spherical accents add lively, almost playful texture. Bright lime green button chrysanthemums build the lush volume, creating a moss-like cushion that supports the taller lilies and daisies. Unexpected blue-grey Eryngium thistles appear along the lower edges, their spiky silhouettes and steely hue introducing an architectural contrast that modernises the warm tones. The bouquet is framed by a variety of leaves - glossy, matte and serrated - which catch soft lighting and create gentle shadow for depth. Evocative of a late spring morning by Foots Cray Meadows or a celebratory table on St Paul's Cray Road, this design suits birthdays, thank-yous, or an uplifting sympathy gesture; available for local delivery across St Paul's Cray and the surrounding neighbourhoods, it balances cheer with considered craftsmanship.
