Purple
A sumptuous rose-filled hat box dominates the centre of the frame, photographed from just above eye level so the viewer can almost feel themselves leaning in to breathe in the soft, mixed fragrance. The round box is a deep, velvet-like black with a fine red ring tracing its base, the simple detail giving a tailored, gift-ready appearance. From this container bursts an extravagant dome of roses, packed closely together until no space remains, forming a rich, curved surface that overflows with colour. Deep red roses are scattered throughout, their petals lush and velvety, speaking of devotion and romance. Between them, layers of blush pink, dusky fuchsia, and delicate peach roses create a gentle gradient, while creamy white blossoms bring brightness and a hint of classic bridal charm. Here and there, lavender and soft purple roses appear, cooling the palette and adding a note of quiet sophistication reminiscent of calm walks through the green spaces around Millfields Park in Upper Clapton. Each bloom is at a different stage of opening: some tightly furled, others fully expanded into generous rosettes, which gives the arrangement movement and natural texture. Fine stems of greenery, likely ruscus or eucalyptus, are slipped between the heads, their smooth leaves and subtle curves lifting the design and stopping it from feeling heavy. The clean white background strips away all distraction, leaving the focus entirely on the craftsmanship of the dome and the harmony of colours. This is the sort of luxurious hatbox bouquet a local Upper Clapton florist might send out for a special anniversary dinner at home, a Valentine's Day surprise, or a heartfelt thank-you gift delivered to a friend living off Clapton Common, radiating modern romance and polished elegance.
SWEET LOVE
£97.00
A richly coloured bouquet is captured in crisp detail against a clean white backdrop, the kind of arrangement you might see carried through Upper Clapton on the way to a birthday gathering by the River Lea. Dominating the composition are several dramatic Vanda orchids in a saturated fuchsia-purple, their wide, flat petals marked with a distinctive speckled pattern that speaks of faraway tropical gardens. They create an opulent focal point, like jewels set at the top of the bouquet. Surrounding them, warm orange roses glow with a tangerine brightness, each bloom perfectly formed with tight, spiralling petals that promise longevity and freshness. Nestled between are clusters of soft pink garden roses, some still cupped and shy, others opening to reveal layers of silky petals, adding a gentle, romantic note reminiscent of cottage gardens off Clapton Common. Tall, slender calla lilies in soft plum and dusty mauve rise gracefully from the mass of blooms, their smooth trumpets curving elegantly, providing a modern sculptural contrast to the rounder flowers. The base of the bouquet is dense with fresh greenery: cool, silvery-green eucalyptus leaves stretch outward, mingling with smaller, darker foliage that frames the bright blooms and adds depth. Tiny clusters of lavender and lilac filler flowers are tucked between the larger stems, lending flickers of colour and fine, lace-like texture. The stems at the bottom are cleanly cut and neatly tied, revealing the craftsmanship of a professional hand-tied design. This lush, rounded bouquet feels joyful yet refined, perfect for marking an engagement, a promotion, or simply brightening a Clapton home with same-day delivery from a nearby local florist.
BALI DREAM
£95.00
A round, hand-tied bouquet rests against a bright white backdrop, its colours unfolding like a soft sunrise over the terraced streets of Upper Clapton. At the centre, generous light pink peonies are in full bloom, their many ruffled petals layered in airy, romantic swirls that give the arrangement a pillowy, almost cloud-like presence. Around them, clusters of powder blue hydrangeas form a dense, rounded base, each floret adding to a cool, misty effect that balances the warmth of the pinks. Scattered artfully throughout are deep purple Vanda orchids, their wide petals rich with intricate, darker speckles, creating pockets of dramatic contrast that feel both exotic and sophisticated. Slender stems of fuchsia pink calla lilies arc through the bouquet, their sleek, trumpet-shaped blooms introducing a contemporary line that guides the eye from one side of the composition to the other. Interwoven among these statement flowers are small blush pink spray roses, each bud tightly packed with petals, lending the charm and delicacy of an old-fashioned romance, perfect for a quiet celebration at home overlooking the River Lea. Soft, silvery-green dusty miller and glossy dark foliage peek out from around the edges, their varied textures framing the flowers and adding depth without overwhelming the pastel palette. The natural stems are gathered neatly at the bottom, tied to show this is a hand-crafted piece rather than a mass-produced bouquet. The overall mood is one of gentle luxury and heartfelt sentiment, ideal for marking milestones such as engagements, anniversaries, or special birthdays for those living in and around Upper Clapton.
COSTA DEL MAR
£114.00
A vibrant magenta and purple bouquet glows in gentle natural light, as if placed near a bright window in an Upper Clapton townhouse, bringing warmth and colour into the room. Dominating the arrangement are large fuchsia gerbera daisies, each bloom perfectly open, with velvety petals circling deep, dark centres that draw the eye inward. Around them, clusters of striking chrysanthemums add drama: their petals are a rich plum-purple at the base, gradually fading to clean white at the tips, encircling sunny yellow centres that lend a cheerful, almost playful character. Creamy white roses, still beautifully structured with layered petals, nestle among the brighter flowers, offering a soft, romantic counterpoint. Fine sprays of white baby's breath drift between the blooms like tiny stars, lending delicacy and a gentle, cloud-like texture. Fresh, glossy green foliage frames the design, giving the bouquet structure and a sense of lush fullness reminiscent of the greenery around Springfield Park. All the stems are gathered in a classic round clear glass vase, the green stems clearly visible through the water, suggesting freshness and careful conditioning. A rustic loop of natural twine encircles the neck of the vase, holding a small white tag printed with a pink rose motif and informal green lettering, evoking a thoughtful handwritten note from a local florist. Beside the arrangement, a shiny silver-edged heart-shaped balloon leans playfully, its white centre filled with colourful patchwork-style letters spelling out "Love n' Hugs 24-7," echoing the bouquet's affectionate tone. The overall scene rests on a light surface with a softly blurred, bright background, creating a calm, uplifting setting that feels ideal for sending encouragement, birthday wishes, or everyday love across Upper Clapton and the surrounding streets.
LOVE AND HUGS
£65.00
Set against a pure white backdrop, this romantic gift set feels like a still life crafted for a couple celebrating their story somewhere in Upper Clapton. The central bouquet is generously filled with creamy white roses, their buds tightly wound, edges smooth and cool like porcelain, symbolising a quiet yet steadfast love. Between them, rich magenta and burgundy carnations gather in textured clusters, their frilled petals layered so densely that each flower becomes a cushion of colour, deep and embracing. White alstroemeria add a lyrical note; their slender petals stretch gracefully outward, each inner surface brushed with fine stripes and speckled markings in soft reddish tones, as if painted by hand. Around the blooms, glossy green foliage and touches of variegated leaves offer contrast, echoing the leafy streets and pockets of greenery found near Clapton Pond. The wrapping enhances the composition: inside, a precise fold of white paper gives structure; outside, a translucent purple cellophane layer crinkles upward, catching reflections like stained glass, framing the flowers without hiding them. At the stems, a thin, bright green satin ribbon is tied into a neat bow, its sheen catching the light, with a small, plain brown gift tag hanging ready for a personal message. To the right of the bouquet lies a round, metallic purple foil balloon with a rosette-like scalloped edge. In the softer lavender centre, the words "To Loving Partners" curl in graceful script, while a tiny jagged-edged rainbow holographic sticker adds a playful glimmer. The overall mood is one of joyful partnership and shared milestones, perfect for an anniversary dinner at home or a same-day romantic delivery across Upper Clapton.

Large, fully open pink peonies form the main focal points, their generous, layered petals creating a soft, cushiony texture that evokes romance and comfort. Woven gracefully among them are striking Vanda orchids in deep purple and vibrant magenta, their broad, almost leathery petals traced with fine, net-like veining that lends an exotic, modern flair reminiscent of the bold colours seen around Springfield Park in spring. Nestled between the statement blooms sit clusters of smaller spray roses in tones of blush, peach, and cream, some held in tight little buds, others just beginning to spiral open, adding depth and a sense of gentle anticipation. Tiny white filler flowers, likely spray chrysanthemums or asters, are dotted throughout the arrangement, bringing sparkle and contrast against the richer hues. A generous collar of glossy green foliage encircles the bouquet, with leaves arching and overlapping to frame the flowers and suggest freshness and life, as if cut that morning from a local Clapton allotment.

SANTORINI DREAM
SANTORINI DREAM
£119.00
Captured against a crisp white studio background, this round, luxuriant bouquet appears almost luminous, its soft pastel tones glowing gently as if lit by an early morning sky over Upper Clapton. The composition is dominated by large, cloud-like heads of blue hydrangea, their countless, papery florets overlapping to form a billowing base of cool colour and plush texture. Curving around and between them, generous peonies in layered shades of blush, ballet pink, and richer rose bring a sense of romance, each bloom packed with rippling petals that look as though they might unfurl further at any moment. Rising gracefully out of this softness, sculptural calla lilies in vivid coral-pink and magenta provide striking vertical accents, their smooth, trumpet-shaped blooms adding a contemporary flair. Scattered delicately through the design, petite blush spray roses and a few creamy yellow roses lend a classic garden feel, like walking past front gardens on the residential streets near Clapton Common in late spring. Soft, velvety sprigs of silvery dusty miller contrast with glossy green leaves, offering cool, frosted tones that deepen the sense of texture and depth. The stems, visible and neatly gathered at the bottom, reveal this as a hand-tied arrangement thoughtfully balanced from every angle.

SUGAR VELVET
£110.00
A richly detailed hand-tied bouquet sits against a clean white backdrop, every stem arranged with the care of an experienced Upper Clapton florist. The first flowers to command attention are the Vanda orchids, their large, velvety petals glowing in shades of magenta and fuchsia, each one dusted with fine white speckling that creates a delicate, net-like pattern. They rise from the centre and edges of the design like small works of art, bringing an unmistakably exotic note. Cradling these orchids are generous mounds of powdery sky-blue hydrangeas, whose countless tiny florets combine into cloudlike clusters. Their gentle blue hue cools the palette, echoing the calm of a walk along the water near Clapton Pond or through Millfields Park on a bright morning. Nestled between the hydrangeas are roses in two contrasting but harmonious tones: lively orange blooms, their spiral centres just beginning to loosen, send out a bright, optimistic energy, while soft lavender and mauve roses offer a quieter, nostalgic romance. Tucked amid the main flowers, slender stems of deep blue accent blooms, similar to compact delphiniums, add flickers of darker blue and extra texture, pulling the eye deeper into the arrangement. Surrounding everything, broad, glossy green leaves provide structure and a fresh, garden-like feel, enhancing the vibrancy of the colours. At the bottom, the stems are trimmed clean and bound tightly together, showcasing the bouquet as a carefully crafted, artisan piece. This arrangement would feel perfectly at place gracing a dining table in Upper Clapton, ideal for congratulating a milestone, welcoming a new home, or sending a luxurious "thinking of you" with local same-day delivery.
SUNSET COLADA
£105.00
A richly detailed floral bouquet is shown in sharp focus against a bright white backdrop, creating a clean canvas that lets its colours and textures sing. Dominating the composition are several lavish Vanda orchids, their petals a mesmerizing blend of violet, indigo, and deep purple, overlaid with intricate speckles and veins that give each bloom a one-of-a-kind, almost patterned-fabric look. These exotic flowers are cradled by layers of pastel pink roses, some still tightly furled and others fully open, their soft, velvety petals curling outward like the pages of an old love letter. Among them, smaller creamy white spray roses tuck into the gaps, softening the transitions between the larger flowers and adding a sense of fullness that feels both luxurious and welcoming, like stepping into a warm florist shop just off Upper Clapton Road. Scattered through the bouquet are clusters of dainty white filler flowers and rounded white or ivory hypericum berries, bringing crisp, bead-like details that catch the eye. Silvery-green dusty miller leaves, with their feathery, almost frosted surfaces, mingle with deep, glossy green foliage, creating a layered, tactile backdrop that adds structure without overwhelming the blooms. The stems are gathered and secured with a semi-sheer ribbon in shimmering tones of silver and purple, its trailing ends giving the design a soft, romantic finish. The overall impression is of a modern, elegant bouquet that fuses classic roses with tropical orchids, ideal for sending thoughtful congratulations, an anniversary surprise, or a meaningful thank-you gift to someone in Upper Clapton, whether they live near Millfields Park or along the quieter residential streets.
VIOLET SKY
£115.00
A richly detailed bouquet is captured upright against a clean white background, every colour and texture crisp and clear. The top of the arrangement is densely packed, creating a rounded, luxurious dome of flowers that instantly suggests celebration and care. Creamy white roses, with their smooth, layered petals, sit like quiet centres of calm, reminiscent of peaceful moments in Springfield Park near Upper Clapton. Around them, deep magenta carnations supply rhythm and movement, their ruffled edges catching shadows and light so that each bloom looks almost like folded silk. Scattered among these stronger tones are delicate white alstroemeria, their slim petals brushed with fine pinkish-red streaks and centred by dark stamens that add intriguing contrast. The flowers are surrounded by fresh green foliage, the leaves varied in size and tone, some with pale edges that bring a lively, garden-fresh feel to the composition. All of this is wrapped with obvious care: an inner layer of crisp white floral paper forms a neat, structured collar, while an outer layer of translucent purple cellophane or tissue flares outward in soft, crinkled folds, giving the bouquet a modern, slightly playful silhouette. At the base, a vivid green satin ribbon is tied in a small, shining bow, holding a narrow light brown tag that hints at a personal message ready to be penned. The bouquet feels like a versatile, heartfelt gift, the sort of hand-crafted design a local Upper Clapton florist might prepare for same-day delivery to nearby homes and cafés, equally fitting for congratulations, gratitude, or simply brightening a grey London afternoon.
BLACKBERRY FUSION
£55.00
This lush bouquet evokes warmth and heartfelt connection, meticulously crafted by a local Upper Clapton florist with a nod to the community's creative flair. The focus falls on pale lilac roses at the center, their silky petals opening as if coaxed by the gentle sun filtering through Hackney's treetops. Around these, bold fuchsia Gerberas and velvety magenta chrysanthemums radiate vibrant energy, their colours reflecting the dynamic hues found in Chatsworth Road markets. Feather-light sprigs of baby's breath dance between the blossoms, creating a soft veil that lightens the whole composition. Deep greens, both glossy and matte, peek from beneath, grounding the arrangement and suggesting the abundant foliage seen along nearby Millfields Park. All elements are set within a distinctive, textured clear glass vase whose 'cracked ice' surface catches the light and adds extra personality. A band of pale raffia tied at the neck embraces a small gift tag, hand-inscribed for personal messages-ideal for sending to friends on Lower Clapton Road or for cheering up a colleague after a long week.

EVERLASTING LOVE
EVERLASTING LOVE
£110.00
This composition reads like a small piece of garden architecture: elegant, textured and quietly festive. In the centre, white calla lilies stand tall with their smooth, trumpet-shaped blooms and pale yellow spadices, creating clean vertical lines and a cool, linen-like presence that draws the eye upward. Interspersed among them is a prominent spire of white stock whose clustered florets introduce a soft, fragrant volume and a sense of upward movement. Rich magenta peonies bring theatrical colour and tactile luxury - two fully opened peonies display layers of velvety ruffles in saturated fuchsia, while a nearby tight bud on a long stem hints at the slow, pleasing progression of a summer bloom. A creamy white rose, compact and elegantly spiralled, rests near the lower centre to offer a calm focal point and timeless sentiment. Sprays of Gypsophila float throughout like breathy highlights, and varied greenery - from narrow, fern-like fronds to broader glossy leaves - surrounds and supports every bloom. The clear, gently curved glass vase reveals stems and water, reinforcing the fresh, honest look and the careful mechanics of good arranging. As a local Hackney florist I picture this bouquet arriving by bicycle to a birthday on Lea Bridge Road or as a refined choice for a Mother's Day table near Upper Clapton; at Florist Upper Clapton we often craft similar pieces for intimate events and deliveries in the area.

HOPELESS ROMANTIC
£65.00
This lush, hand-gathered arrangement brings together deep crimson and dark burgundy roses with delicate lavender and lilac blooms for a layered, romantic effect. Each rose appears freshly opened, petals unfurling in tight spirals that hold subtle variations of mauve and dusty purple within the same head. Interspersed throughout, glossy dark-green foliage - evocative of Ruscus or Salal - provides a cool, leafy frame and gentle structure, while clusters of small orange-red rose hips add playful specks of color and a tactile, almost autumnal texture. The bouquet is presented in a rounded mercury glass vase with a slightly weathered, silvered finish that reflects light in a soft, antique way; a natural twine or raffia is tied at the neck, from which a white gift tag with a tiny rose sketch dangles, ready for a personal note. Photographing the arrangement against a brilliant white background makes every hue read clearer: the burgundy feels warm and velvety, the lavender breathes calm. I imagine this piece arriving on a pale morning from a local Upper Clapton florist after a walk past Millfields Park, its scent of rose and green leaves warming a small kitchen table. It suits occasions where sincerity matters - quiet anniversaries, sincere thank-yous, or comfort after a difficult day - the kind of bouquet a neighbour might send to say both "congratulations" and "I'm here."
LOVE & PASSION
£65.00
An elegant floral arrangement of creamy white roses, lavender-tinted alstroemeria, and delicate baby's breath stands gracefully in a clear, cylindrical glass vase, bathed in soft daylight that diffuses across a pale background like a calm Upper Clapton morning. The white roses are at the heart of the bouquet, each bloom fully open with gently layered petals that curl outward in soft, romantic spirals, creating a sense of purity and quiet luxury. Nestled around them are stems of alstroemeria in muted shades of lilac and dusky purple, their slender buds and partially opened flowers edged with green sepals and touched with fine, darker streaks that add subtle depth and intrigue. Between these larger blossoms, tiny clouds of gypsophila float effortlessly, their airy white clusters filling the negative space and giving the design a light, almost weightless quality. Lush green foliage, both broad and slender, provides a rich backdrop, arching and tapering in a way that shapes the bouquet into a rounded, harmonious dome. The stems, visible through the clear water of the vase, are neatly trimmed and aligned, speaking to the careful craftsmanship of a skilled local florist who knows how to balance texture, color, and proportion. The light catches on the glass and the glistening stems, suggesting freshness, as though the flowers were just arranged in a studio off Upper Clapton Road before being sent out for same-day delivery. The mood is tender and hopeful, perfect for expressing sincere congratulations, sending a thoughtful get-well wish to a neighbour near Clapton Pond, or simply bringing a soothing presence to a dining table where gentle conversation and reflection are welcome.
MAKE A WISH
£60.00
Bursting with visual energy yet refined in manner, this bouquet of oriental lilies pairs creamy white blooms with regal pink-to-fuchsia flowers for a striking contrast that reads as both joyful and composed. Many lilies are fully open, their broad, silky petals forming graceful trumpets that expose stamens dusted with pale yellow pollen; others are at varied stages of unfolding, elongated buds that promise continued bloom over several days. Deep green, sword-like leaves weave through the grouping, lending structure and a fresh garden-like vitality that helps each blossom breathe. The arrangement sits in a clear glass vase centered at the lower edge of the frame, the glass revealing neatly trimmed stems and pristine water that underline the cut flowers' freshness and careful handling under bright, flattering light.

There is an unmistakable sensory suggestion - a heady, sweet floral scent and the tactile smoothness of the petals - that evokes warm gatherings and quiet remembrances. This is a bouquet I would recommend for celebrations, anniversary tables, or a calming gift for someone recuperating at home, with the kind of lasting presence familiar to residents around Upper Clapton and the nearby Lea Bridge Road.

Lit by gentle afternoon daylight, a sumptuous bouquet flourishes-a floral tapestry capturing the spirit of Upper Clapton in bloom. The eye is drawn immediately to the plush mounds of hydrangea, with their dusky indigo, teal, and softened mauve hues, each petal opalescent and textured like the clouds over Hackney Marshes. Roses in soft lavender and classic creamy white unfurl gracefully, their velvety spirals inviting close admiration and lending a romance reminiscent of community celebrations on Upper Clapton Road. White ranunculus with their intricately layered petals provide quiet depth, contrasting beautifully against the bolder florals. Intermingled throughout, slender eustoma blooms in pale yellow lift the overall palette, suggesting sunlit optimism. Pops of fuchsia-pink from petite filler blossoms infuse energetic joy, while the airy, feathery pink astilbe at the edges seems to breathe whimsy into the design. Near-translucent light green and white floret clusters-perhaps Ammi or Queen Anne's Lace-bring a delicate, lace-like finish that feels local and fresh. Rich green foliage wraps around the base, forming a lush, supportive canvas. The arrangement's well-gathered stems are elegantly tied with a glossy royal purple ribbon, its lustre complementing the cool purple tones above.

TIMELESS VICTORIAN
£57.00
Composed with a florist's eye for balance, this upright arrangement in a clear glass vase presents a harmonious study in blue, white and green against a spotless white backdrop. The visual anchor is a dense, rounded mass of deep blue hydrangeas whose clustered florets create a plush, cushion-like texture that feels nearly velveteen to the imagination. Around their base, creamy white roses open in compact, velvety spirals, lending a classic softness and warmth to the cool hydrangea tones. Above and threading through the central cluster, several elegant white calla lilies rise in sculptural arcs, their smooth, trumpet-shaped blooms catching light and suggesting the refined simplicity of porcelain. Slim spires of white snapdragons or stock weave vertical interest through the arrangement, their small blossoms adding delicate rhythm and a hint of whimsy. Verdant foliage - glossy broad leaves such as salal or lemon leaf and airy fern fronds reminiscent of leatherleaf - provides a rich backdrop and frames the composition, the greenery punctuating the blue-and-white palette with life and depth. Stems are cleanly gathered and visible through the transparent vase, standing in clear water that emphasizes freshness.
