Set against a spotless white background, this elegant funeral spray forms a sweeping, asymmetrical arc that runs from the bound stems at the top left down to a soft point at the bottom right, echoing the gentle line of a resting figure. At the heart of the composition, large Stargazer lilies command attention with their striking colouring: the petals open widely in shades of magenta and deep pink, edged in pure white, each bloom scattered with tiny burgundy spots that add depth and character. A few buds, still tightly wrapped in green with hints of pink, rest alongside the open flowers, reminding one of lives and memories still held close. Tucked between the lilies are magenta gerbera daisies, their bold, structured faces bringing a contemporary flair and a note of warmth, like cherished moments remembered along the streets of St Paul's Cray and nearby Orpington. Creamy white roses, some just beginning to unfurl, lend a classic touch of reverence, while soft, frilled white carnations fill spaces with a comforting, pillow-like texture. Fine sprays of small white daisy-style blooms and airy filler weave through the arrangement, breaking up the solid colour blocks and adding a delicate, almost whispering presence. The flowers are supported by an abundance of greenery: broad, glossy leaves create a strong base; feathery ferns soften the edges; and long blades of green foliage reach outwards, accentuating the elongated profile. The spray feels thoughtfully balanced, with colour and texture harmonised to create a soothing, dignified tribute. It is easy to imagine this piece being carried into a local St Paul's Cray service, or laid at a graveside near Foots Cray Meadows, as a gentle expression of sympathy, love, and enduring respect.

An elongated teardrop-style sympathy arrangement is shown against a pure white background, its diagonal flow drawing the eye from the neatly bound stems at the top left down through a cascade of colour and foliage to the tapered point at the lower right. Dominating the focal area, several large Oriental or Stargazer lilies open wide, their deep fuchsia-pink petals edged in clean white and dusted with dark speckles, suggesting both passion and tenderness. Nearby, partially opened lily buds, washed with shades of pale green and soft pink, offer a quiet sense of life continuing beyond the moment of farewell. Interwoven among the lilies are bright magenta gerbera daisies, their circular faces and layered petals bringing a vibrant accent that recalls joyful memories shared in St Paul's Cray, from quiet walks around local green spaces to family gatherings at home. Creamy white roses, some tightly furled, some beginning to open, create a serene contrast, while ruffled white carnations add extra softness and volume, like small cushions supporting the larger blooms. Fine clusters of dainty white filler flowers are scattered throughout, adding airy brightness and delicate detail. The arrangement is framed and extended by generous greenery: broad, dark leaves form a solid backing; feathery ferns trail softly outward; and long, slender blades of foliage arc gracefully towards the bottom right, emphasising the cascading shape. The lighting is even and gentle, allowing every petal and frond to be clearly visible without harsh shadows. This carefully composed funeral spray feels calm, reverent, and deeply respectful, perfectly suited to rest beside a casket at a local chapel in St Paul's Cray or to be delivered as a heartfelt condolence tribute to a grieving family.
