BASKETS / POSIES
This carefully composed basket, woven from pale willow strips with a gently arched brown handle, presents a tranquil palette of whites, blush pinks, and verdant greens that feels both modern and timeless. At its heart sit several immaculate white Gerbera daisies, their wide, sun-like petals focused around deep brown-black centres that draw the eye and anchor the composition. Surrounding them are abundant pale pink carnations-soft, frilly blossoms that add a romantic, tactile softness-while clusters of small white and creamy-yellow chrysanthemum sprays pad the arrangement to a lush fullness. Speckled through the foliage are tiny violet-blue aster sprigs, introducing cool accents and a whisper of fragrance. The greenery is deliberately varied: round, silvery eucalyptus leaves give a contemporary, calming silhouette and a faint citrus-like scent; darker glossy ruscus cascades out to the left, creating a gentle, flowing asymmetry; and other fresh greens provide structure and volume. The overall effect is luminous; soft, diffused daylight emphasizes petal detail and the handcrafted texture of the basket. As a local florist in Addington, we think of this design as versatile-appropriate for Mother's Day, to say thank you, or as a thoughtful sympathy gift-and it's arranged to travel well for delivery around Addington Village and the lanes near Addington Palace. Prepared with care by Addington Flowers, this basket reflects traditional craftsmanship with a contemporary, comforting tone.
ALWAYS HERE FOR YOU BASKET
£50.00
Picture a welcoming, sunlit bouquet from Addington Flowers, captured as a radiant overhead view of a Florist Choice Basket. The petals glow in soft pinks and creamy whites, punctuated by deep fuchsias that spark the eye, while greens-especially eucalyptus-provide tranquil contrast. A vivid chorus of large hot pink peonies dominates the scene, their ruffled edges catching the light, complemented by white ranunculus with tightly wound layers, and opulent hydrangeas in pale pinks that feel like a gentle snowfall of petals. Roses in blush and cream add timeless elegance, with white anemones offering a dramatic focal point through their dark centers. Filler blooms and greenery weave through the composition, adding depth and a sense of natural abundance. The basket itself is a pale, woven container that embraces the bouquet with rustic refinement, the handle subtly visible beneath the blooms. An immaculate white square overlay sits at the heart of the arrangement, displaying the Florist Choice Basket in graceful script and a bold, sans-serif price reading with a question mark before 60. The image radiates warmth and craftsmanship, suggesting a gift refined for weddings, anniversaries, or celebratory moments, and inviting delivery through Addington Flowers across Addington and surrounding communities for a thoughtful, same-day floral treat.
FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY BASKET
£60.00
A tranquil funeral flower basket sits centered in a bright white studio setting, its pale woven sides and high, arching handle offering a gentle frame for the blooms inside. The arrangement feels rounded, full, and carefully balanced, as though a local Addington florist has taken time to consider every angle before placing the final stem. Dominating the centre is a creamy white rose, its tightly layered petals opening in a calm, symmetrical swirl that speaks of innocence, respect, and quiet remembrance. Nearby, deep purple calla lilies rise with graceful curves, their satin-smooth trumpets adding depth and a touch of drama that never feels harsh. Scattered between them are delicate, star-like clematis flowers in soft lavender and pale lilac, each slender petal radiating from a subtle yellow centre, creating a light, airy layer that softens the darker tones. Smaller yellow and white blossoms, reminiscent of alstroemeria or freesia, nestle into the gaps, their bell-shaped blooms introducing cheerful flickers of brightness that hint at hope and cherished memories. To the right, a single magenta gerbera daisy appears, bold yet tender, its many thin petals fanned out like a circle of quiet energy. All of this colour and form is anchored by a wealth of lush greenery-broad, glossy ruscus-like leaves and finer, fresh green sprigs that cascade here and there over the basket's rim. The overall effect evokes the feeling of a peaceful walk through the green spaces around Addington, perhaps after a service, when flowers continue to comfort long after words fall away. It is a dignified, expressive tribute suited to funerals, memorials, and moments of farewell.
TREASURED MOMENTS BASKET
£65.00
In this detailed image, a light, natural wicker basket with a smooth, curved handle sits centred against a clean white background, allowing the funeral flowers to speak with quiet strength. The basket is generously packed with creamy white roses, their petals unfurled into perfect spirals, creating a sense of calm and grace. Nestled among them are star-shaped clematis blossoms in pale lavender and cool lilac, each bloom marked by a bright yellow-green centre that draws the eye and adds a gentle touch of contrast. Clusters of smaller white and pale yellow flowers, similar to freesia and lisianthus, weave through the arrangement, some blooms open and others in tender bud, hinting at memories still unfolding. Deep green foliage, glossy and abundant, cups the flowers and spills slightly over the basket's edge, adding structure and natural texture, much like the mature greenery found along Addington's tree-lined streets. The colour palette-cream, soft yellow, and muted lavender-creates a tranquil, luminous effect that feels appropriate for a chapel farewell, a crematorium service, or a thoughtful delivery to a mourning family. The craftsmanship suggests an attentive florist who understands local funeral traditions, placing each stem so that no angle feels empty. The arrangement seems designed for those moments when words are hard to find, offering instead a soothing blend of scent, softness, and serenity. It is a dignified tribute that would sit comfortably beside a framed photograph, a condolence book, or a candlelit space of reflection in an Addington home.
PEACE & PURITY BASKET
£65.00
This image shows a serene, traditional funeral flower basket arranged with the care and balance you might expect from a trusted local Addington florist preparing tributes for a memorial at the village church. The basket itself is made from pale, natural wood, oval in shape and slightly shallow, resting on four discreet feet that give it a neat, finished look on a table or pedestal. A smooth, arched handle in a matching light tone rises from side to side, framing a generous mound of flowers that spills just beyond the rim. At the heart of the display sit several creamy white roses, fully opened so their layered petals form soft, cupped rosettes, symbolising purity, remembrance, and gentle sympathy. Around them, rich red carnations with deeply ruffled petals create clusters of colour, suggesting devoted love and respect, while more delicate pink and white-edged carnations weave through the arrangement, softening the contrast and adding a tender note. Smaller white blossoms, reminiscent of freesias or fine filler flowers, are tucked among the larger blooms, their slender stems and bell-like shapes adding movement and a suggestion of light fragrance. The flowers are cradled in a generous bed of deep green foliage, including broad, glossy leaves that provide structure and contrast, along with airy, feathery fronds that lift the eye and create a gentle, cloud-like outline. Set against a clean white background, every petal and leaf is clearly visible, giving the tribute a composed, dignified presence suitable for funerals, services of thanksgiving, or quiet family gatherings across Addington and the surrounding area, where thoughtful, understated elegance is often most appreciated.
REMEMBRANCE BASKET
£60.00
A domed, luxuriant bouquet sits against a pure white background, the neutral setting drawing the eye into a rich world of colour and fine detail that feels at home in leafy Addington. The arrangement is tightly crafted so that the blooms touch and overlap, creating a plush, cushion-like effect. Garden roses are the stars, their petals unfolding in soft spirals of pale pink, warm yellow, and delicate peach, capturing that dreamy, romantic look often requested for celebrations and anniversary deliveries around Addington Village and nearby parks. Threaded through these classic blooms are graceful clematis flowers, each star-shaped with slender lavender or white petals and a glowing center of yellow stamens, giving the design a gentle, garden-grown charm. Blue eryngium, with its thistle-like, spiky heads in metallic blue-grey, brings edgy texture and a contemporary twist, standing slightly proud of the other flowers like little sculptures. Between them, velvety purple lisianthus blossoms weave in and out-some still in tight, ruffled buds, others softly opening-adding depth and moodier tones. Small clusters of bright red hypericum berries glisten among the petals, providing pockets of vivid colour reminiscent of berries spotted along local woodland walks near Addington Hills. The flowers are cradled in an abundant mix of foliage: broad, glossy leaves give structure; lighter, feathery sprigs add airiness; and darker, almost burgundy accents lend sophistication. Soft, even lighting enhances the creaminess of the roses and the cool shimmer of the sea holly, as if freshly arranged on a florist's workbench. The bouquet feels joyful yet refined, perfectly suited as a centerpiece for a family gathering in Addington, or as a thoughtful same-day delivery to send comfort, congratulations, or simple affection.
ETERNAL MEMORY POSY
£100.00
Seen from a top-down vantage, this meticulously crafted round bouquet pairs large white oriental lilies with creamy ivory roses and airy clusters of Baby's Breath to create a seamless, monochrome impression against a pure white backdrop. The lilies open wide, their trumpet-shaped petals curving outward to reveal pale green stamens that anchor the arrangement visually, while the roses remain mostly in bud or half-bloom, their layered petals building soft, pillowed texture beneath the lilies' architectural forms. Fine sprays of gypsophila weave through the spaces, creating an almost cloud-like veil that softens edges and gives the bouquet a light, floating quality. Subtle green leaves emerge around the circumference, their fresh tones offering just enough contrast to define the circular silhouette without disturbing the overall sense of calm. A florist's eye will spot the balance of scent and structure here: the lilies' delicate, sweet perfume tempered by the rose's mellow fragrance, and an artful use of smaller filler flowers to ensure longevity and movement. Crafted with the attention to detail Addington Flowers brings to orders across Addington and New Addington, this arrangement reads as both classic and contemporary - ideal as a bridal bouquet for a ceremony at the village church, an elegant centerpiece for a reception at Addington Palace, or a comforting sympathy arrangement. The image conveys purity, trustworthiness and refined taste, reflecting the quiet pride of a local florist who selects each bloom for freshness, form and lasting beauty.
COMPASSION POSY
£90.00
A sumptuous, hand-tied bouquet is shown against a crisp white background, its rounded shape overflowing with lilies and roses that seem ready to be lifted straight from a studio table in Addington and carried to a joyful celebration. The eye is first drawn to large white lilies, their long, refined petals arching outward in graceful curves, some blooms fully open while others remain in tight green buds that promise days of continued beauty. Scattered among them are roses in gentle blush pink and rich cream, each bloom layered with velvety petals that spiral inward, some just beginning to unfurl as if slowly waking, others already wide open in a romantic display. Cutting through the softness, several vibrant magenta and fuchsia Oriental lilies, likely Stargazers, add a dramatic splash of colour; their petals are dusted with darker speckles and centered by bold yellow stamens that suggest energy and passion. Surrounding and softening every edge, fine clusters of white baby's breath form a lacy halo, giving the bouquet an airy, almost ethereal quality, like a delicate mist over nearby Addington parks after a light rain. Hints of glossy green foliage emerge between the blooms, providing gentle contrast and a sense of natural abundance, as though the flowers were freshly gathered that morning. The bright, even lighting highlights the contrast between the smooth, satiny lilies and the plush, cushioned roses, while keeping shadows to a minimum so each detail is clearly defined. This arrangement radiates warmth and affection, perfect for marking milestone birthdays, anniversaries, or simply sending love with same-day delivery to homes and offices around Addington.
CHERISHED MOMENTS POSY
£90.00
This compact, dome-like bouquet reads like a soft morning in a well-tended village garden: pale pink roses taking centre stage, their layered petals opening with patient grace, surrounded by frothy clusters of white freesia that lift the composition with vertical, bell-shaped accents. The roses vary from full, voluptuous blooms to smaller spray varieties in lighter pinks, creating a gentle rhythm of scale and tone. White freesia punctuates the pinks with clarity-some blossoms presented fully open, others held as tight buds-promising a slow reveal of scent and shape. Deep green, glossy leaves form a solid backdrop, while striking variegated foliage edged in cream threads light through the arrangement, adding brightness and a touch of garden-worn charm. The design is densely constructed so that stems are hidden, producing a polished, cushion-like profile that casts a soft shadow on the white surface beneath. Natural daylight in the photograph accentuates the velvety texture of roses and the crisp, papery feel of freesias, suggesting a tender fragrance that would be reassuring at a bedside or quiet service. As a florist working in and around Addington Park and Addington Village, I would choose this palette for gentle celebrations-new baby mornings, intimate birthdays, or peaceful remembrances-because its balance of softness, formality, and freshness feels both personal and timeless.
HEARTFELT SYMPATHY POSY
