BASKETS / POSIES
I picture this basket set on a modest kitchen table near Chatsworth Road, the arrangement offering a calm, gracious presence to a small Upper Clapton flat. A cluster of immaculate white Gerbera daisies commands the view, their broad discs of white petals surrounding deep brown-black centres that catch the eye like small, natural medallions. Soft blush carnations form gentle clouds between the gerberas; their layered petals are downy to the touch and bring a soft, romantic warmth to the overall feel. Interspersed among these are tiny white and pale yellow daisy-like blooms - likely spray chrysanthemums or asters - which create a lush filler and lend a sense of abundance without overpowering the primary blossoms. Tiny pinpricks of pale blue or lavender accent flowers appear like stars against the greenery, giving the palette a whisper of cool contrast. The greens are varied: rounded silvery eucalyptus leaves add a calming, aromatic lift while darker, glossy ruscus stems trail outward, especially to the left, producing a graceful cascade that softens the basket's edge. Everything sits within a light, handwoven wicker basket with a sturdy arched handle, its tactile weave and warm wood tones enhancing the natural, handmade quality of the piece. Bright but diffused studio lighting reveals the texture and freshness of each petal and leaf. This design feels well suited as a soothing get-well gift, a quiet thank-you, or a sympathetic offering, and reflects the careful hand of an Upper Clapton florist familiar with local tastes and quiet moments.
ALWAYS HERE FOR YOU BASKET
£50.00
FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY BASKET
£60.00
This detailed image captures a refined funeral flower basket set against a crisp white background, the overall effect calm and contemplative. The light, cream-toned woven basket features a smooth, arched handle that sweeps over the arrangement, giving the design a sense of structure and gentle shelter. At its heart, a single large creamy white rose blooms in perfect form, each petal curling softly outward, evoking peace and heartfelt sympathy. Flanking this central flower are two rich purple calla lilies, their sleek, sculptural trumpets adding a touch of modern grace and solemn drama that feels fitting for a farewell arrangement. Threaded between them, fine clematis blossoms in soft lavender and pale lilac open like tiny stars, with subtle yellow centres that hint at warmth and remembrance. Pockets of yellow and white, from bell-shaped filler flowers reminiscent of freesia or alstroemeria, brighten the composition just enough to suggest hope without diminishing its quiet, respectful tone. On the right-hand side, a single magenta gerbera daisy adds a vivid accent, like a cherished memory shining through grief. All of the blooms are nestled in an abundance of lush greenery-broad, dark green leaves and lighter sprigs that spill gently over the basket's rim, creating a rounded, abundant profile. The natural textures and fresh appearance suggest flowers prepared that morning by a skilled florist serving the Upper Clapton community, perhaps destined for a memorial near Clapton Common or a chapel gathering, where colours, fragrance, and thoughtful design help convey love, support, and the promise that someone's life will be remembered with tenderness.
TREASURED MOMENTS BASKET
£65.00
In this refined funeral basket arrangement, a pale, almost ivory woven container with a matching handle holds a generous cloud of fresh blooms, carefully composed to feel both gentle and reassuring. At the heart of the design are large creamy white roses, fully open and plush, their layered petals forming calm, circular shapes that draw the eye inward like a moment of stillness beside Millfields Park in Upper Clapton. Nestled among them are clusters of pale yellow and white freesia-style flowers, some tight and green at the tips, others just unfurling, suggesting the quiet progression of time and healing. Threaded between these softer forms are star-shaped lavender clematis flowers, their cool lilac and periwinkle petals opening around luminous yellow-green centres, adding a subtle note of colour that never feels overpowering. Deep, glossy green foliage surrounds and supports the blooms, its varied shapes and textures creating depth and a sense of natural abundance, as though the stems were gathered from a well-tended garden just off Clapton Common. The basket sits alone against a crisp white background, so every nuance of colour and shadow is visible, from the warm cream of the roses to the faint blush on some petals. Designed by an experienced Upper Clapton florist, this arrangement feels appropriate for a chapel service, a memorial at home, or a quiet condolence delivery, offering comfort through its soft hues and understated elegance. The overall impression is of peace, affection, and a respectful farewell that honours a life with grace.
PEACE & PURITY BASKET
£65.00
A softly lit funeral flower basket sits alone against a pure white background, offering a calm, composed tribute that feels at home in Upper Clapton's quiet streets. The shallow, pale-wood basket, gently oval with four discreet feet, has a smooth arched handle that curves gracefully above the flowers, giving the piece a sense of shelter and care. Within it, creamy white roses, fully open and velvety, draw the eye with their classic, peaceful beauty, each layered petal seeming to unfold in a quiet breath. Deep red carnations add depth and gravity, their ruffled petals forming rich, textured domes that suggest devotion and respect, while softer pink and white-edged carnations introduce a tender note of remembrance. Threaded among these are smaller, bell-shaped white blooms, reminiscent of freesias, offering a lighter touch and the hint of a gentle floral fragrance. A cradle of lush greenery-broad, glossy leaves and delicate fern-like fronds-surrounds and supports the flowers, creating a rounded, abundant mound that appears to gently spill over the rim of the basket. The colours remain true and dignified: ivory, crimson, blush, and deep green, all highlighted by the simplicity of the background. This arrangement feels especially suited to a farewell gathering, whether placed at a crematorium service near Clapton Common or delivered to a family home off Upper Clapton Road, carrying with it a message of comfort, love, and quiet strength from those who commissioned it.
REMEMBRANCE BASKET
£60.00
Against a clean white studio background, this beautifully rounded bouquet looks as if it has just been placed on the counter of a favourite Upper Clapton flower shop. The design is densely composed, forming a perfect dome of colour and texture where no stem feels out of place. Soft pink, warm yellow, and gentle peach garden roses dominate, their petal-packed heads opening in romantic spirals, some still cupped like promises yet to unfold. Between these classic blooms, delicate clematis flowers reach outward, their pale lavender and soft white petals surrounding sunny yellow centres that draw the eye and lighten the whole palette. Adding a striking contrast, several stems of blue eryngium stand proudly, their thistle-like, spiky globes in cool metallic blue-grey giving a hint of wild heathland, not unlike the rugged plantings you might spot around the wilder corners near Clapton Pond. Deep purple lisianthus nestle into the gaps, some in tight buds, others unfurling into soft, ruffled cups, enriching the bouquet with jewel-like shadows. Scattered throughout are clusters of vivid red hypericum berries, smooth and rounded, which punctuate the flowers with cheerful dots of colour and an almost tactile appeal. A mix of lush greenery frames the entire arrangement: broad, glossy green leaves, airy feathery fronds, and subtle touches of darker, almost wine-coloured foliage to ground the lighter tones. The lighting is soft and even, enhancing the freshness of every petal and leaf, and revealing the careful craftsmanship involved. This bouquet feels perfect for sending a thoughtful message, whether to brighten a home off Lea Bridge Road or to celebrate a special moment with flower delivery anywhere in Upper Clapton.
ETERNAL MEMORY POSY
£100.00
Seen from above on a pristine white background, this densely packed round bouquet is a study in white-on-white elegance with green punctuation. Several large oriental-style white lilies form the focal points, their wide trumpet petals unfurling to expose pale green stamens and hints of purple near the throat, which add a delicate shadow of depth. Surrounding and nesting between the lilies are numerous creamy ivory roses, largely held as tight or gently opening buds; their layered petals create a soft, tactile mass that contrasts with the lilies' open architecture. Wisps of baby's breath (Gypsophila) are sprinkled throughout like snowflakes, lending an airy, filament-like texture that lifts the composition and fills negative space with light. A few glossy green leaves appear at the edges, offering crisp colour contrast and a natural frame to the circular silhouette. The lighting is soft and overhead, emphasizing the bouquet's rounded symmetry and the subtle sheen on petals. This arrangement reads as timeless and ceremonial - ideal for a wedding bouquet crossing Stamford Hill or for a quiet tribute left near Clapton railway station. As a bouquet I prepare at Florist Upper Clapton, it represents quiet confidence: fresh-scented lilies, the honeyed scent of roses, and an overall feeling of purity and hopeful new starts. It is suited to weddings, christenings, anniversaries or moments when understated sophistication and sincere sentiment are required.
COMPASSION POSY
£90.00
A densely packed, perfectly rounded bouquet of lilies and roses fills the frame against a clean white background, evoking the feeling of a freshly hand-tied arrangement ready to leave a studio in Upper Clapton. Dominating the design are several pristine white lilies, their broad, satiny petals arching outward in graceful trumpets, each bloom revealing soft green centres and slender stamens tipped with golden pollen. Tucked closely around them are romantic blush-pink roses and creamy white roses, some only just beginning to unfurl, others open wide to show off their layered, velvety petals. Piercing through the softer tones, a handful of vivid fuchsia and deep magenta Oriental lilies, similar to Stargazer lilies, create dramatic bursts of colour; their petals are richly pigmented, with darker speckles and subtle gradients that draw the eye to their bright yellow anthers. Delicate clouds of white baby's breath (gypsophila) drift between the larger flowers, softening the overall look, while hints of glossy green foliage provide a fresh, natural contrast without breaking the bouquet's rounded silhouette. The lighting is bright and even, enhancing every texture-from the silken lily petals to the fine, papery blossoms of gypsophila-so the arrangement appears freshly cut and full of life. This design suggests the gentle fragrance of lilies and roses mingling in a Hackney townhouse near Springfield Park, perfectly suited for weddings, anniversaries, or a luxurious romantic gesture. It feels like a bouquet chosen to mark a milestone, prepared with the kind of care local Upper Clapton florists bring to every special delivery across the neighbourhood.
CHERISHED MOMENTS POSY
£90.00
A meticulously rounded floral cushion photographed on a pure white surface, this arrangement centers on an elegant duet of soft pink roses and pristine white freesia. The roses vary from large, fully opened blooms with layered, velvety petals to smaller spray roses that provide delicate texture and tonal depth, moving from pastel blush to a modest coral-pink. White freesias punctuate the design with slender, bell-shaped flowers-some revealing pale yellow stamens, others still closed-releasing a clean, honeyed fragrance that pairs beautifully with the rose scent. Tucked around the blooms is a dense framework of greenery: broad, glossy dark leaves (likely ruscus or salal) and variegated foliage edged in cream (suggestive of pittosporum), which together create a lush backdrop and subtle highlights without showing any stems. The compact, domed shape and absence of visible mechanics give the piece a refined, cushion-like quality, while soft natural light skims the petals and leaves, accentuating texture and depth.

Prepared with local sensibility for families and services in Upper Clapton-often requested for memorials at nearby churches or to comfort relatives in homes off Lower Clapton Road-this bouquet communicates calm, reverence and gentle remembrance. Florist Upper Clapton composes such pieces with attention to scent, colour balance and longevity, creating an arrangement that reads as both a dignified tribute and a tender expression of care for the community around Chatsworth Road market and Clapton Pond.
