This heartfelt floral cross, photographed slightly from above against a plain white field, combines the reassuring structure of large tropical leaves with a tender, pale palette of blooms. Broad, gleaming green leaves - likely Ti leaves chosen for their resilience and sheen - are laid out to form the cross's arms and centre, their smooth surfaces and visible venation creating a protective, almost wing-like base. At the heart and along the main axis are clusters of creamy-ivory lisianthus, their multi-petalled, ruffled forms opening like soft cups, paired with small white spray chrysanthemums that add compact texture and luminous points of light. Interspersed throughout are sprays of tiny lavender or pale purple limonium/asters, whose minute star-shaped flowers lend a whisper of colour and an airy, nostalgic feel. Fine green fillers soften the joins between flowers and leaf, giving the design a gentle, hand-crafted quality and a faint green scent that suggests freshly cut foliage. The overall lighting is soft and even, producing a serene, almost devotional mood appropriate for services, wakes, or a graveside. As made by an experienced Reigate florist, this cross would suit a quiet service at St Luke's or a memorial in the town's cemetery, offering a composed and compassionate expression of remembrance that balances strength and tenderness.

A solemn, artfully crafted floral cross photographed from a slight overhead angle against a clean white background, the composition offering a calm, isolated view of each element. The structural base is formed from broad, glossy green tropical leaves - think Ti leaves with visible veins and a waxy sheen - arranged to define the vertical and horizontal arms of the Christian cross. At the intersection and tracing each arm sits a generous, tightly grouped display of soft white and creamy ivory blooms: ruffled lisianthus with layered petals and several closed buds, interspersed with small rounded white spray chrysanthemums that add gentle brightness and body. Scattered through these pale blooms are sprays of tiny lavender-purple star-shaped flowers - likely limonium or small asters - which give the piece a whisper of cool colour and a delicate, lace-like texture. Finer green filler foliage peeks through the clusters, softening edges and lending an organic feel to the geometry. Light is even and soft across the scene, enhancing the creamy whites and the subtle sheen of the leaves while casting almost no shadow, so the cross reads as peaceful and uncluttered. The overall effect is one of dignified consolation - a sympathy or memorial tribute designed to convey peace, remembrance, and quiet faith. As a local Reigate arrangement, it would be equally at home displayed in Priory Park's chapel or brought to a service at St Mary's, offering a restrained, comforting presence for mourners and family members.

    I was worried that the flowers wouldn't be delivered on time thus I called Handy Flowers to check the progress of my order. They contacted the couriers and told me when the flowers were expected to be delivered. Very professional service!
