LETTER TRIBUTES
A quietly dignified floral memorial that spells out 'DAD' in large, three-dimensional block letters, each letter completely covered in tiny, immaculate white chrysanthemum florets that create a plush, tactile surface. The white chrysanthemums reflect soft studio illumination, their feathery petals forming a serene, monochrome field that suggests purity and devoted remembrance. Each letter is neatly bordered with a rich emerald green ribbed ribbon, giving the shapes a crisp, tailored contour against the pale backdrop. Accenting the white are three thoughtfully placed floral clusters composed of deep red roses, petite white freesia, and a mix of glossy greenery; the left 'D' wears a cluster on its upper curve, the 'A' bears a flourish near the base of its left stem with a gentle loop of bright green bear grass or foliage reaching upward, and the right 'D' mirrors the first with a corresponding spray. These clusters introduce contrasting colour, texture, and a soft fragrance-rose warmth against cool chrysanthemum airiness-while the dark supporting rods behind the letters remain almost hidden, ensuring the piece reads as a cohesive whole. Picture this arrangement presented at a chapel service or placed by a headstone at nearby roads or green spaces around Nunhead and Honor Oak, where local families often seek a composed and personal tribute. The combination of spotless white chrysanthemums for sincerity and red roses for deep affection makes this a precise, heartfelt expression for commemorating a father-crafted with the steadiness and respectful attention of experienced hands.
ENDLESS LOVE DAD TRIBUTE
£155.00
In this image, a softly lit grey background provides a tranquil stage for a "MOM" floral tribute, the kind many families in Nunhead choose when saying farewell to a much-loved mother. Three substantial letters stand side by side, each one densely massed with white chrysanthemums. The flowers are packed so closely that their tiny ruffled petals blend into a seamless, cushion-like texture, symbolising purity, gratitude, and protection. On the left-hand "M," a small spray sits at the upper left: a vibrant fuchsia rose opening to reveal its layered centre, accompanied by delicate lighter pink rosebuds and feathery fern foliage in fresh green. This splash of colour introduces warmth and personality without disturbing the quiet dignity of the white base. The circular "O" in the middle is equally full of chrysanthemums and carries just one soft pink rose at its lower curve, like a single cherished memory anchored within the design. The right-hand "M" repeats the accent of the first, this time with the fuchsia rose and fern nestled at the top right, bringing symmetry and a sense of completeness to the tribute. Overlaid across the centre is a sharp white rectangular border. Inside it, white text in two styles reads "3 LETTER" in a bold modern font, and beneath, "Tribute" in a graceful script, identifying the type of custom funeral flowers pictured. At the outer edges, partially visible chrysanthemum letters with similar pink rose and fern sprays suggest that more letter combinations can be created, perhaps spelling names or family titles for services held in Nunhead, Peckham Rye, or along the quiet streets around Evelina Road. The arrangement radiates tenderness and careful thought, as if crafted by a florist listening closely to a family's stories.
3 LETTER TRIBUTE
£155.00
In this image, the word "DAD" is formed by three large, upright letters, each one meticulously covered with pure white chrysanthemums. The blooms are densely packed, their rounded petals overlapping to create a thick, almost quilted surface that feels gentle and cushioning to the eye. Soft, even lighting allows the subtle shadows between petals to show, giving the design depth without disturbing its sense of peace. Encircling each letter is a ruffled band of emerald green ribbon, which traces the outline cleanly and adds a vivid, leaf-like contrast, reminiscent of the greenery lining Nunhead's quiet residential streets and the paths around nearby Brockley and Peckham Rye. Faint glimpses of a dark frame behind the flowers reveal the solid structure that supports this tribute during a funeral or memorial service.   

Delicate embellishments bring individuality to the piece. On the upper left of the first "D", a small spray of white freesia and fresh green foliage softens the sculpted outline, the slender buds and starry blossoms adding a hint of scent and movement. From this accent, two long, arching green stems extend diagonally across the tribute towards the central "A", drawing the gaze along in a gentle sweep, as if tracing the journey of shared memories. At their meeting point, resting at the base of the "A", a striking accent of colour appears: two deep purple calla lilies, with elegantly curved, trumpet-shaped blooms, emerge from a cluster of white freesia and lush leaves. Their velvety, darker petals introduce a note of depth and quiet drama. On the final "D", at the upper right, a more modest cluster of white freesias and foliage echoes the first spray, balancing the whole design. The tribute feels both traditional and intimately personal, a style that many families in Nunhead might choose to honour a devoted father at his final farewell.
PEACEFUL DAD TRIBUTE
£160.00
This image presents an elegant four-letter floral tribute, evoking the kind of thoughtful arrangements created for funerals and memorials across Nunhead and the surrounding South London streets. Four bold letters, here illustrated as K, A, T and E, stretch horizontally across the scene. Each letter is entirely cloaked in a carpet of white chrysanthemums, the tightly overlapping petals forming a rich, textured surface that seems both soft and reassuring. Along the outer sides runs a narrow trim of delicate pale pink ribbon or fabric, just visible where the blooms meet the edge, giving a gentle, romantic outline that enhances rather than competes with the white flowers. Artfully placed among the chrysanthemums are deep red roses, their velvety spiral centres adding intense flashes of colour. These roses are set within clusters of glossy green foliage-possibly fern fronds or ruscus leaves-bringing a natural, garden-like freshness to the design. Over the centre of the word sits a square, semi-transparent dark grey overlay, crisply framed in white. Across this overlay, in bright white type, the words "4 LETTER" occupy the top area, while "Tribute" flows beneath in an elegant, script-style font, and the number 4 is especially prominent, making the purpose of the design clear at a glance. Despite the overlay, the forms of the letters, and the red and green details, can still be made out beneath, reinforcing that this is a real, customisable floral tribute. The backdrop is a smooth, light grey, allowing the arrangement to take full focus and echoing the calm, reflective mood of a Nunhead funeral service or quiet farewell at the cemetery or crematorium.
4 LETTER TRIBUTE
£200.00
This image captures a bespoke five-letter floral tribute carefully positioned on a smooth, light grey background, photographed from above so that each curve and line of the design is easy to appreciate. Large, block-style letters are completely covered in tightly massed white chrysanthemums, their small petals overlapping to create a dense, cloud-like surface that feels both pure and gentle. On the left, a clear "J" stands out, followed by partially visible letters "O," "H," and "N" towards the centre, with an "A" on the right, suggesting how any five-letter name or word can be crafted in the same style. Around the edges of each letter runs a rich band of deep purple satin ribbon, its smooth texture and subtle shine framing the white blooms with a touch of elegant formality. At carefully chosen points on the letters, delicate clusters of mauve and blush pink spray roses sit among feathery green fern fronds and fine foliage, adding soft colour and natural movement without overwhelming the calm simplicity of the design. Across the middle of the arrangement lies a square overlay in a slightly darker shade of grey, edged with a slim white border; within it, the words "5 LETTER" are written in clear white capitals above the script word "Tribute," making the purpose of the piece unmistakable. The overall atmosphere is one of tenderness and respect, the kind of customised floral lettering that might be placed beside a coffin during a service in Nunhead, carried along Evelina Road on the way to the cemetery, or displayed at a gathering in nearby Peckham Rye. It reflects the thoughtful, hand-crafted work of a local florist who understands how personal farewell flowers can be.
5 LETTER TRIBUTE
£240.00
A carefully composed memorial piece spells DAD in bold, three-dimensional letters, each letter densely covered in small, immaculate white chrysanthemums or similar fluffy white florets to create a smooth, cloud-like texture. The letters' edges are crisply defined by a pleated emerald-green ribbon that traces both the outer silhouette and inner voids, its cool tone anchoring the arrangement with composed dignity. At three accent points - the first D's upper left curve, the A's lower central V, and the second D's upper right curve - clusters of rich magenta roses form intimate vignettes, their perfume mingling with the faint honeyed scent of white freesia or delicate spray flowers woven through the foliage. Dark green leaves provide a shadowed backdrop that increases the roses' colour intensity and the white blooms' soft radiance. A discreet dark green or grey horizontal bar behind the letters indicates the mounting that keeps the tribute level and display-ready for a funeral chapel or graveside. The composition reads as both traditional and personal: clean white surfaces for purity and the magenta accents for enduring affection. I picture this arranged with quiet care in Nunhead Cemetery chapels or delivered to local services around Brockley and Honor Oak, the piece intended to be placed where family can gather around it and remember. The overall feeling is peaceful and consoling, a tactile, visual embrace for those saying goodbye to a beloved father.
GRACIOUS DAD TRIBUTE
£155.00
6 LETTER TRIBUTE
£290.00
A lovingly crafted sympathy tribute that spells out DAD in three freestanding, softly rounded letters, each entirely covered in dense, pristine white chrysanthemums that create a uniform, cushiony surface. The silhouette of every letter is defined with a ruffled, deep green satin ribbon or foliage edging that adds a tactile, finished border and a flattering contrast to the white blooms. Behind the letters, discreet dark green metal bars connect and support the composition, offering structural strength while remaining visually unobtrusive. On the upper left curve of the first D sits a radiant cluster of bright yellow roses, roughly three to four blooms, nestled with small white filler flowers and fresh greenery; two slender, bare stems arc toward the centre like an informal salute. The centre A bears an elegant clustering on its lower left diagonal of two rich, burgundy-purple calla lilies, their sleek, trumpet-shaped forms lending quiet dignity and depth, surrounded by tiny white accents. The final D mirrors the first with the same sunny rose cluster on its upper right curve. Presented against a plain white backdrop with gentle, cool lighting, this arrangement conveys purity, affection, and respect - qualities we create daily at Florist Nunhead for families attending services at nearby Nunhead Cemetery or holding wakes at local chapels. The scent is clean and subtle, the textures soft and reassuring; this is a composed and personal memorial piece intended to comfort and honour a beloved father.
FOREVER CHERISHED DAD TRIBUTE
£165.00
The photograph shows a striking "DAD" floral arrangement designed as a funeral tribute, carefully composed so that each letter stands distinct yet forms one flowing word. Set against a plain, bright white background, the three capital letters-"D", "A", and "D"-are framed by rich, deep green fern foliage, which outlines their shapes with soft, feathery curves. Inside these leafy borders, the florist has densely packed the letters with pristine white chrysanthemums and broad-petalled white gerbera daisies, their soft layers overlapping to create a tranquil, traditional base that feels both respectful and comforting. Scattered among the white blooms are cheerful yellow gerbera daisies and clusters of yellow spray roses, providing small pools of warmth and light that seem to lift the mood, much as sunshine brightens the paths around Nunhead Green or nearby Peckham Rye Park. To introduce depth and emotional nuance, accents of purple lisianthus and deep pink spray roses are threaded throughout, accompanied by delicate lavender fillers and touches of lime-green button chrysanthemums. These richer tones and textures balance the lighter flowers, suggesting love, gratitude, and lasting memories. The letters are supported by slim, dark green bars that discreetly connect them from behind, ensuring perfect alignment while remaining almost invisible to anyone viewing from the front. Overall, the image conveys a bespoke, heartfelt sympathy tribute such as a local Nunhead florist might create for a funeral or memorial service, a floral expression designed to say goodbye to a cherished father with grace, colour, and quiet strength.
LOVING DAD TRIBUTE
£190.00
The scene is composed on a soft grey background that feels calm and understated, ideal for a memorial setting. At the centre, a darker charcoal-grey square is outlined with a fine white border, immediately drawing focus. Inside this square, pure white text quietly proclaims "7 LETTER Tribute". The number "7" is large and prominent at the top, "LETTER" follows below in smaller, tidy uppercase sans-serif type, and "Tribute" is written in a graceful script font, its loops and curves adding a gentle sense of movement. Behind this central panel, and partially hidden by its edges, lies a seven-letter funeral flower arrangement spelling "GRANDMA", similar to the tributes you might see carried through Nunhead's tree-lined streets to a local chapel or crematorium. Each letter is formed from densely packed white chrysanthemums or comparable small blooms, their layered petals giving the tribute a plush, cushioned appearance that softens the strong lines of the lettering. Here and there, clusters of rich purple flowers are threaded into the design, accompanied by sprigs of lush green foliage that tuck between the white blossoms and trail delicately along the contours. The curved "G" on the left is the most visible, followed by suggestive glimpses of the "R", "A", "N", "D", "M" and the final "A" as they extend beneath the central square. The balance of cool greys, bright whites, and purple accents conveys both serenity and heartfelt affection. It clearly communicates a bespoke seven-letter name tribute for "GRANDMA", the sort of lovingly crafted piece a skilled Nunhead florist would prepare for a family wishing to express their love and gratitude at a funeral or memorial service near Peckham Rye or along Evelina Road.
7 LETTER TRIBUTE
£330.00
This heartfelt funeral tribute is crafted as three connected capital letters reading MUM, each letter densely covered in pristine white chrysanthemums that produce a soft, pillowy surface against a stark white background. The chrysanthemum heads are closely packed to form a uniform, silvery-white canvas, and each letter is framed with a delicate ruffled ribbon in a muted pink tone that lends a warm, comforting outline. Visible between the letters is a discreet dark-green support frame that stabilises the standing design and keeps the composition poised for display. Carefully placed accent posies punctuate the arrangement: the first M bears a cluster of rich fuchsia-pink roses, glossy green fern-like foliage and small coral-hued hypericum berries at its upper left; the U is balanced by a similar bouquet at the base of its curve; the final M mirrors the first with another tight spray of pink roses and berries at its upper right. The combination of velvety roses, crisp white mums and glossy berries creates a layered textural interplay that feels tactile even to the imagination, while the faint floral scent evokes quiet remembrance. As a local tribute suitable for services around Nunhead - from small chapels to memorials at Nunhead Cemetery or a family wake near Nunhead Green - the piece speaks of respect, love and the gentle dignity of saying goodbye. The design reflects seasoned florist workmanship: balanced proportions, considered colour contrasts and an intention to comfort bereaved families in the moments when a meaningful farewell matters most.
FOREVER ADORED MUM TRIBUTE
£155.00
This image shows a traditional funeral flower tribute spelling out "OUR MUM" in large, upright block letters, arranged in a neat line across a clean, white backdrop. Each letter is intricately covered in small white chrysanthemum heads, arranged so closely together that they form a smooth, plush surface with no gaps, like a soft floral blanket. The pure white of the chrysanthemums conveys calm and innocence, creating a gentle contrast with the deeper colours that frame them. Around the edge of every letter runs a tidy border of rich red blooms, most likely spray carnations, which form a continuous outline. Their velvety, ruffled petals and warm crimson shade give the design a sense of depth and definition, echoing the enduring love and respect so often expressed at funerals in Nunhead and the surrounding streets of SE15. Three focal clusters of deep red roses are woven into the composition at considered points: one between the first two letters, "O" and "U"; another between the "U" and the first "M"; and a final spray at the right side of the second "M". These roses, accented with lush green foliage and delicate fern fronds, rise slightly above the chrysanthemum base, drawing the eye gently along the tribute without overwhelming the message. A slim, dark green frame or rail can just be seen behind the floral work, linking the letters and ensuring they remain steady when placed on stands at a service in Nunhead Cemetery or a nearby church. The tribute as a whole feels personal and composed, a meaningful way for a family to say farewell to their mother in a setting close to home.
OUR MUM TRIBUTE
£290.00
Presented against a brilliant white backdrop, this large sympathy tribute spells "MUM" in strong, three-dimensional capitals, each letter densely covered with hundreds of small white chrysanthemums to create a pillowy, tactile surface that reads as pure and peaceful. The uniform white blooms catch soft light and suggest serenity and reverence; they are offset by three carefully placed accent clusters of soft lavender and blush pink roses-one perched on the upper left arm of the first "M", another settled into the curved dip of the central "U", and a third adorning the upper right of the final "M". The roses range from open, velvety lavender heads to gentle pink buds, introducing a delicate colour chorus and a sense of human tenderness. Bright, lighter green leaves and fine fern fronds thread through the composition, adding natural rhythm and a cool, slightly aromatic note beneath the sweeter rose scent. A darker green structural frame-possibly ribbon-wrapped or felted moss-can be seen tracing the base and inner edges of each letter, giving the piece solidity and a subtle contrast to the white blooms. As an experienced local florist, Florist Nunhead would place this arrangement as a dignified focal tribute at a funeral or graveside near Nunhead Cemetery or delivered for services across Nunhead, East Dulwich and Peckham, chosen by families who want a personal, quietly comforting memorial for a cherished mother.
PURPLE ACCENTED MUM TRIBUTE
£155.00
A graceful "MOM" funeral flower arrangement is shown here, placed against a clean white backdrop so its detail can be clearly appreciated. The three capital letters, "M-O-M", are constructed on a slim, dark green frame whose bars discreetly connect and support each shape. Every letter is generously covered with tiny white chrysanthemum heads, their compact petals forming a dense, cushion-like surface that feels soft and serene. The white flowers are arranged so neatly that they create a uniform texture, with the slightest variations in petal direction giving a gentle sense of depth and movement. Along the lower edges, the dark green base and framing add a fine outline, keeping the letters distinct and strong. To soften the formality of the white, three accents of pink roses and foliage are tucked in with careful symmetry: one at the upper left of the first "M", one nestled at the lower point between the "O" and final "M", and another crowning the top right of the last "M". Each cluster includes a prominent fuchsia rose or deep pink bloom, complemented by paler pink roses and buds, and finished with airy green fern leaves. These clusters introduce warmth and a sense of personal story, much like tributes laid at services around Nunhead's churches or at the historic Nunhead Cemetery. The tribute overall feels both traditional and deeply heartfelt, an arrangement that would sit gracefully atop a coffin or beside a framed photograph, expressing a family's enduring love and respect for their mum. It carries a quiet message of comfort, memory, and gratitude in every petal.
PINK GARDEN MUM TRIBUTE
£155.00
Laid out horizontally against a clean white backdrop, this floral condolence tribute spells "MUM" in large, uppercase letters that feel both strong and gentle. Each letter is expertly formed from densely packed white spray chrysanthemums, whose tiny petals overlap like layers of soft fabric, creating a plush, uniform surface. The chrysanthemums are arranged so closely that the underlying structure almost disappears, with only a slender outline of dark green frame and ribbon peeking through at the edges and within a few of the curves. This subtle framing keeps the letters sharply defined, echoing the careful work done in local Nunhead flower shops preparing tributes for services at nearby churches or at the historic Nunhead Cemetery. Three soft islands of colour break through the white: clusters of delicate peach and blush pink roses, each one gathered with care. The first cluster rests on the upper left of the first "M", the second is tucked at the lower centre of the "U", and the last sits on the upper right of the second "M", balancing the design both visually and emotionally. Within each cluster, there is a gentle mix of open rose heads and smaller buds, encircled by fresh green foliage, including fern-like sprigs and richer, broader leaves. Together they add depth, texture, and a hint of garden freshness. The lighting feels neutral and even, allowing the calm palette of whites, soft peaches, and glossy greens to speak of peace and remembrance. This tribute captures the quiet dignity of a final farewell, an ideal funeral arrangement for families in Nunhead and the surrounding South London neighbourhoods wanting to honour their mum with grace and tenderness.
PEACH ACCENTS MUM TRIBUTE
£155.00
A tender floral memorial shaped into the word 'MUM', each letter sculpted in three dimensions and set against a plain white background to keep the focus on texture and tone. The foundation of every letter is a thick, plush carpet of white chrysanthemums - their soft, feathery petals creating an almost cloud-like softness that suggests innocence and enduring affection. Scattered through the white surface are concentrated patches of deep purple and magenta pompom blooms that add contrast and visual rhythm, lifting the arrangement away from pure monochrome. Small, vibrant pink spray roses punctuate the design with warmth: a petite cluster at the upper left of the first 'M', a fuller gathering tucked into the lower curve of the 'U', and a mirrored cluster at the upper right of the final 'M'. Lush, dark green foliage, including fern fronds, frames each rose cluster, while tiny blue accent flowers peek out like quiet memories.

A discreet dark bar runs horizontally to join the letters, giving the tribute structure without distracting from its softness; gentle, even lighting reveals the layered craftsmanship and the subtle interplay of colour. This composition carries the reverent intimacy many families in Nunhead, Dog Kennel Hill and surrounding streets seek when commemorating a mother at a service or wake. The overall impression is one of calm care - a floral embrace that balances consolation with respectful celebration of a life, assembled with the meticulous handwork of an experienced local florist.
PURPLE & WHITE MUM TRIBUTE
£155.00
The image portrays a large, three-dimensional floral tribute spelling the word "MUM," designed as a centrepiece for a funeral or memorial gathering in Nunhead or nearby Peckham Rye. All three letters sit prominently against a clean white background, which highlights the depth and craftsmanship of the piece. The surfaces of the letters are densely packed with small chrysanthemum or spray blooms in rich fuchsia and deep purple tones. Each flower is carefully angled so that the petals overlap, creating a plush, quilt-like texture, while tiny lime-green centres glimmer throughout like little sparks of light. Around the sides, a soft, pastel pink ribbon runs in a neat, ruffled border, its gentle frill lending a delicate, almost lace-like finish and framing the stronger colours within. A graceful accent on the first "M" features bright pink roses, some fully open and others just beginning to unfurl, nestled among fresh fern fronds and foliage that spill slightly over the letter's outline. At the base of the "U," a soothing mix of pale pink and cream roses is arranged with fine white blossoms and mixed greenery, forming a soft, cradle-like cluster that follows the curve of the letter. The final "M" echoes this design with a coordinating group of deep pink roses and fern leaves positioned on its top right corner. Altogether, this "MUM" tribute feels both bold and tender, a heartfelt expression of remembrance, ideal for honouring a much-loved mother at a church, crematorium, or graveside in the Nunhead area.
LOVING MUM TRIBUTE
£160.00
This carefully lit studio image, captured against a pure white background, displays a three-piece condolence arrangement spelling the word "BRO" in large, three-dimensional capital letters. Each character is entirely covered in dense clusters of royal blue chrysanthemums, their compact heads forming a soft, textured surface that reads like a plush textile from a short distance. The blue carries a quiet, contemplative mood - deep and resonant - chosen to convey sincerity and calm. At the base of each letter are small, artful sprays of pale cream or ivory roses, some in tight bud and some beginning to unfurl, accompanied by tiny white filler blooms such as mini chrysanthemums or baby's breath; these are positioned on the lower-left of the 'B' and the lower-right of the 'R' and 'O', giving a gentle asymmetry that feels handmade rather than mechanical. Interspersed greenery - broader glossy leaves akin to salal or lemon leaf and lighter, airy fern fronds - gives depth, structure, and a faint green fragrance that anchors the arrangement in nature. A visible white foam edge traces the contours and inner spaces of the letters, revealing the floral mechanics behind this type of memorial tribute. The overall presentation is composed and respectful, suited for wakes or graveside services around Nunhead, Peckham Rye and Brockley. Described by a local florist, this piece reads as a personal message of loss and love, a dignified way to say goodbye and to hold a brother's memory in a public moment of mourning.
PERSONALISED BRO TRIBUTE
£165.00
Crafted with quiet care by Florist Nunhead, this personalised memorial spells the name KATE in bold, sculpted letters made entirely from pristine white spray chrysanthemums. The flowers form a dense, velvety carpet across each capital, giving every letter a pillowy texture that reads as both reverent and refined. A soft, pleated blush-pink ribbon gently outlines the shapes, lending a whisper of warmth and definition against the white blooms. Bright, glossy red anthuriums punctuate the composition in carefully chosen clusters; their heart-like spathes and distinct spadices provide striking, warm focal points set against the serene palette. Rich green foliage - from delicate ferns to broad, glossy leaves and fine trailing vines - is artfully woven through the letters and drapes between them, creating continuity and a natural flow reminiscent of garden paths behind Nunhead Green or along the lanes near Nunhead Station. The letters sit slightly apart, casting subtle shadows on the white backdrop so the display reads three-dimensionally in photographs and at a funeral chapel. Sensory details matter here: the chrysanthemums' soft texture, the cool sheen of anthuriums and the damp, green scent of fresh foliage evoke a composed atmosphere of remembrance. This is the kind of bespoke tribute families in Southwark request for wakes and services - a balanced, handcrafted design that honours a life with tenderness and local care.
DARLING KATE TRIBUTE
£200.00
Handcrafted in the style of a traditional memorial letter tribute, the name KATE is formed from dense clusters of small white chrysanthemums that create a soft, pillowy surface and a sense of pure calm. Each block letter is edged in a fine, pale pink satin ribbon whose subtle pleat catches the light and warms the composition; the white backdrop keeps the focus entirely on texture, colour and form. A single, sumptuous red rose anchors each letter, its velvety crimson petals providing a deliberate contrast to the cool white mass of mums. The roses are framed by abundant deep green foliage - broad glossy leaves and feathery fern fronds - that give the arrangement weight and movement. Precisely placed, the rose on the K sits low on the left vertical stroke, the A's rose punctuates the apex of its triangle, the T is accented at the base of the left side of its crossbar, and the E receives its bloom on the middle horizontal arm, each placement chosen to balance the line and draw the eye. The scent profile evokes classical sympathy flowers: fresh, clean chrysanthemum notes softened by the richer perfume of roses. Prepared with the care of a local workshop, this piece would be suitable for a service in Nunhead or a private memorial near Nunhead Green; Florist Nunhead can reproduce this style for clients wishing a personalised, respectful tribute.
RED KATE CUSTOM TRIBUTE
£200.00
A lovingly crafted memorial arrangement spells out "KATE" in four independent, upright letters, each built from a thick, tightly packed layer of snowy white chrysanthemums that give the characters a velvety, tactile presence. The letters are outlined with a subtle pale-pink satin ribbon, the sheen of the fabric lending a soft halo that separates blossom from background and adds a gentle, affectionate tone. Clusters of vivid fuchsia-pink roses and delicate pastel pink spray roses are carefully placed across the design and tempered by small deep-purple or blue accent flowers - likely statice or petite lisianthus - to introduce quiet colour punctuation against the white base. On the diagonal of the "K" a bold grouping anchors the letter; the "A" is softened with flowers near its lower right curve; the "T" receives a modest cluster close to its stem; and the "E" is balanced with two groupings on the middle bar and lower arm. Lush foliage, from feathery fern fronds to smooth eucalyptus leaves, frames and supports each bouquet, contributing both texture and the cool, green aroma that complements the sweeter scent of roses. Seen through the lens of a local florist who often delivers to Nunhead Cemetery and nearby Peckham Rye Park, this tribute reads as both refined and consoling - the kind of bespoke sympathy piece we prepare with precision and care at Florist Nunhead for families seeking a deeply personal way to honour a loved one.
LOVING CUSTOM TRIBUTE
£200.00
This detailed floral tribute spells out the name "KATE" in four large block letters, presented on a clean white background that brings clarity and calm to the composition. Each letter is built on a base of tightly clustered white chrysanthemums, the small, rounded blossoms packed close together so they create an almost quilted texture, soft yet visually strong, just right for a funeral or memorial setting. A pale blush-pink satin ribbon runs around the outside edge of each letter, its gentle sheen and light ruffling adding a delicate, feminine frame that contrasts quietly with the crisp white petals. Interwoven within the chrysanthemum base, clusters of brightly coloured flowers and greenery add life and personality. On the 'K' and 'T', lime-toned cymbidium orchids with speckled red centres nestle into glossy dark green leaves and airy sprigs of foliage, offering freshness and a slightly exotic touch. The 'A' and 'E' are each adorned with a single red anthurium, their distinctive heart-shaped, waxy petals and central spadix standing out strongly against the fluffy white backdrop, speaking of enduring love, strength, and cherished memories. Thin, looping green vines arc gracefully between the letters, visually tying the whole name together like a soft, natural ribbon of connection. The tribute feels calm and deeply personal, the sort of arrangement that might be chosen by a family in Nunhead for a service near Nunhead Green or within the leafy cemetery grounds, where flowers hold special meaning. Every flower, from the simple white chrysanthemums to the bold anthuriums, seems placed with intention, reflecting the care of an experienced local florist.
SPECIAL CUSTOM TRIBUTE
£205.00
Spelled out in four generous, three-dimensional letters, "KATE" is rendered here as a quiet portrait of remembrance made entirely from small, immaculate white chrysanthemums. Each bloom is placed so closely to its neighbour that the letters read as plush, uninterrupted white surfaces, soft to the eye and almost luminous against the bright white backdrop. A delicate pale-pink satin ribbon winds the inner edges of each letter, lending a gentle blush and an elegant line that defines the form without overwhelming the soft chrysanthemum texture. Strategic bursts of hot-pink roses punctuate the design - a pair of open roses on the K's left, a solitary rose cradled low in the A, a single rose anchoring the T, and a pair clustered on the E - their vivid colour and velvety petals drawing the eye and adding emotional warmth. Underneath and between these focal blooms, varied green foliage - fern-like fronds, ruscus-style leaves and small sprigs - introduces depth, cool contrast and a garden-fresh scent that complements the roses. Subtle shadows beneath each letter give the impression of freestanding, sculptural forms, made to stand at a funeral, memorial display, or a celebration of life. As an experienced local florist serving Nunhead and nearby streets like Gordon Road and Ivydale Road, I'd say this arrangement carries both dignity and tenderness, a personalised floral message that reads clearly in a chapel or alongside a graveside remembrance.
ELEGANT CUSTOM TRIBUTE
£200.00
This personalised funeral tribute spells BETTY in substantial, three-dimensional capital letters, photographed on a clear white backdrop so every floral choice and texture shows through. The main body of each letter is a soft carpet of white chrysanthemums - small, tightly packed blooms that form a smooth, tactile surface and suggest quiet dignity. Bright magenta-purple chrysanthemums or similar small blooms are used to outline and pattern the letters internally, creating contrast and a sense of depth as if each letter wears a sash of colour. The edges are finished with a narrow purple fabric ribbon that follows the letter forms and lends a tailored, finished look. Resting on selected letters are delicate accent posies: pale pink roses, some just opening and some fully unfurled, accompanied by tiny blue accent flowers that might be cornflowers or delphinium sprays and by feathery green ferns. These accents are wired and tied into place so they sit naturally without flattening the white chrysanthemum field. The arrangement reads as a calm, reverent statement - soft white for peace, purple for remembrance, pink for gentle affection, and a hint of blue for serenity. The image evokes the care a local Nunhead florist would take arranging tributes for services near Nunhead Cemetery or small chapels off Gordon Road, balancing visual impact with safe transport and the subtle scent of rose and green foliage. The craftsmanship - compact clusters, secure wiring, and neat ribbon edging - makes this a dignified floral farewell that speaks when words are hard to find.
MIXED FLOWERS CUSTOM TRIBUTE
£240.00
An elegant, personalised sympathy tribute spells JENNA in bold, three-dimensional letters, each sculpted from compact clusters of snow-white chrysanthemums that create a soft, pillowy texture. The clean white background and expertly clipped blooms emphasise clarity and calm, while a slender ribbon of vivid purple or a rim of tiny lavender florets accents the inner and outer contours of every letter, providing graceful contrast and a measured pop of colour. Delicate accent posies rest on three letters-the flowing curve of the J, the centre of the first N, and the top of the A-composed of blush and lavender spray roses, a few cream or pale yellow rosebuds, and glossy fern fronds which add depth and a touch of verdant life. A subtle, faint rose scent meets the more neutral chrysanthemum perfume, offering a gentle, comforting aroma appropriate for memorial settings. Thin dark connecting bars hold the letters together, suggesting care in construction and stability for chapel display or church hall placement. As a local Nunhead florist's design sensibility would note, this style sits quietly well near familiar neighbourhood places like Nunhead Cemetery, the High Street, or a family home on Ivydale Road, and is often chosen when families want a personalised, understated name tribute. Prepared with meticulous attention to balance, texture and tone, the arrangement conveys respect, remembrance and a sense of peaceful closure.
CUSTOM JENNA TRIBUTE
£240.00
Viewed up close, the display spells H, E, a full heart, and U with the kind of precision you expect from an experienced florist in Nunhead. Each letter - H, E and U - is densely covered in small, pure-white chrysanthemums, their clustered petals creating a soft, uniform texture that suggests peace and quiet dignity. A delicate blush-pink satin ribbon edges every shape, the ruffled border catching soft studio light and introducing a gentle, comforting warmth. Vivid fuchsia roses provide focal points: a carefully placed duo at the H's lower stem, a striking trio across the E's centre, and two tucked into the inside curve of the U; these roses offer a bright, uplifting tone and a deeper pink perfume against the chrysanthemums' clean scent. The central heart is deliberately more lush and romantic, filled with layered pale-pink carnations, creamy lisianthus and small blush roses, interspersed with pale green eucalyptus leaves that soften the colour palette and add a subtle herbal note. Fine touches of dark green fern-like foliage and tiny red-toned berries near each rose accent add texture and a natural contrast. The overall effect reads as a bespoke sympathy or memorial tribute that nevertheless carries an intimate message of love - suitable for a service at Nunhead Cemetery or a private remembrance in a Rye Lane chapel. Crafted with the care of local makers, Florist Nunhead prepares this as a considered option for same-day or pre-arranged delivery across SE15.
WE LOVE YOU TRIBUTE
£250.00
This graceful sympathy tribute, prepared with the quiet care of a seasoned florist, radiates tenderness and memory for a cherished grandmother. The composition centres on compact, cloud-soft white chrysanthemum spray flowers that blanket the visible faces of the letters, offering a soft texture that invites gentle touch even as it reads clearly from the front row at a service. At either visible end of the piece mellow yellow rosebuds are tucked into small accent clusters, their petals still nicely furled and glowing like a late-afternoon sun, while tiny white freesia-like buds and fresh bright-green foliage lift the composition with delicate contrast. The green sprigs - slender fern fronds and glossy deeper leaves - bring a damp, woodland freshness that speaks of walks through Nunhead Cemetery and afternoons spent in quiet gardens near Rye Lane. The floral letters sit upon a subtle dark support bar behind their upper edges, a practical detail that keeps the tribute steady when displayed by a grave or on an easel in a chapel. Photographed against a pure white background, the white and yellow palette reads as both solemn and hopeful: purity softened by warmth. As a local Nunhead florist I imagine delivering this arrangement down Nunhead Lane or to a family home near the common - an arrangement that feels personal, dignified, and suffused with the comfort of remembered laughter and the gentle scent of roses and chrysanthemum on a calm spring morning.
TREASURED NAN TRIBUTE
£155.00
A meticulously composed sympathy tribute spelling out NANA in crisp, capital letters is shown against a stark white field; each letter is built from hundreds of tiny, pristine white button chrysanthemums packed tightly to form a soft, pillowed surface. The blooms are uniform and fresh, their delicate petals creating a quilted texture that reads as pure and tranquil. Around each letter a neat, vibrant green border-arranged from pleated foliage or ribbon-like greenery-traces the edges with a clean, botanical line, giving the typography a sculptural definition and a subtle lift from the background. The overall impression is one of careful, respectful craftsmanship: bright, even lighting reveals the freshness of the blooms, the slight sheen of dew on petals, and the three-dimensional depth achieved by layering individual stems. This arrangement feels intimate and dignified, intended for a funeral viewing or memorial service to honour a cherished grandmother. As a local florist who prepares tributes for families across Nunhead and SE15, I picture this piece arriving at a chapel near Nunhead Cemetery or laid beside floral tributes at a small service on Ivydale Road-offering quiet comfort and an unmistakable sign of love. Available for thoughtful local delivery, the design balances purity and life in its white-and-green palette, carrying a tone of solace, remembrance, and enduring affection for the person being celebrated.
WHITE NANA TRIBUTE
£200.00
A lovingly formed floral memorial announces the word "NANA" in bold, three-dimensional letters, each letter built from a compact field of fresh chrysanthemums arranged on a stark white field. The design alternates between two palettes: the Ns are composed of saturated magenta-to-plum chrysanthemums, their dense clusters punctuated by minute yellow centres that lend a soft warmth; the As are arranged in soft, creamy-white chrysanthemum blooms, their pale faces folding inward like gentle nods of consolation. Around each letter a lively lime-green border-likely narrow pleated ribbon or tightly gathered foliage-traces the contours with a slightly undulating line, adding a tender brightness that lifts the composition and suggests hope amid sorrow. Under soft natural or studio lighting the petals display subtle tonal depth: the purple heads read velvety and deep, the whites luminous and cool, while tiny shadows between blooms emphasize the three-dimensional sculpting. The arrangement carries a faint, green-chrysanthemum aroma up close, a simple, homey scent familiar at memorial services. As a funeral or remembrance tribute, the piece is crafted for clarity and emotional resonance: the name reads plainly from a distance, the alternating colours offering both contrast and harmony. This bespoke tribute is the kind of floral statement families choose for services at nearby chapels or graves in Nunhead Cemetery, or for laying at a wake in a familiar community hall, speaking softly of respect, enduring affection, and the quiet dignity of farewell.
PURPLE & WHITE NANA TRIBUTE
£200.00
A tender floral message forms the word 'AUNT' in large, sculpted letters, each letter built from hundreds of small white spray chrysanthemums whose tiny petals create a soft, cloudlike surface. Some blossoms reveal pale yellow centres that catch the eye like gentle sparks of warmth against the pure white field. Each letter is traced with a generous, deep purple satin ribbon, its pleated, ruffled edge adding a refined texture and a subtle, satin lustre that plays against the chrysanthemums' matte petals. The letters sit against a clean white plane, their three-dimensional frames creating delicate grey shadows that suggest real depth and the hand-made care of a traditional tribute. There is an understated scent-fresh, green and slightly dewy-that supports the visual serenity without intruding, a calming note for those gathered to remember. The overall effect is respectful and personal: a composed yet intimate memorial that honours an aunt's life and presence. As a Nunhead florist familiar with local families and services near Nunhead Cemetery and Nunhead Green, we understand how this white-and-purple palette offers both dignity and comfort. Florist Nunhead can craft this arrangement for a funeral service, chapel display or a private commemoration, arranging careful delivery across Nunhead and neighbouring Brockley and Peckham when required.
SPECIAL AUNT SENTIMENT TRIBUTE
£200.00
An overhead composition forming the word "DAD" from a plush tapestry of white, purple and green florals, captured on a stark white background so each letter is crisp and solemn. The foundation of the design is generous white flowers-creamy white gerbera daisies with their darker central discs, billowy white carnations and delicate white lisianthus-that supply a range of textures from silky buds to fuller, ruffled petals. Interspersed among these are soft mauve and lavender roses, velvety pastel coffee roses and small violet statice that inject an understated warmth and nostalgic colour, mindful of tradition and quiet remembrance. Each letter's edge is carefully framed with lively fern fronds whose crisp, feathered shapes give the tribute movement and life, while compact green button chrysanthemums nestle within the letter forms to provide contrast and fresh, verdant punctuation. The floral elements sit on a dark structural base-subtle, almost architectural-that helps the letters hold their shape when viewed from above. The lighting is gentle and natural, catching the sheen on petals and the dusty softness of the lavender tones, suggesting the discreet, comforting scent of freshly gathered blooms. This arrangement is presented in the spirit of a local, considered commission, familiar to families in Nunhead and nearby Honor Oak who ask for personalised remembrances at small services or wakes. At Florist Nunhead we arrange such worded tributes with attention to balance and tone, creating a compassionate, tactile expression of love when words alone cannot say enough.
FINEST TRIBUTE
£210.00
Seen straight-on against a bright white backdrop, a horizontal line of four floral letters forming BEST presents a confident, handcrafted statement of remembrance and affection. Each letter is a tight tapestry of fresh flowers: fluffy white chrysanthemums and cream gerberas create luminous highlights; vibrant yellow roses and sunflower-bright gerberas supply warmth and optimism; soft-lilac lisianthus and small purple chrysanthemums introduce a hush of colour; and lively fuchsia spray roses or carnations add peppered warmth. Between these primary blooms sit sprays of pale green and white filler flowers that give movement and subtle texture, while deep green fern fronds rim each letter in a soft, organic border. A discreet dark-green or grey framework shows in a few gaps - a thin horizontal support at the base of the E and T - the invisible armature that keeps large-scale lettering secure at services. The lighting is even and fresh, lending a crispness to petals and leaves and enhancing the faint scent of roses and green foliage. As a local florist I know families order such bespoke lettering for memorials at Nunhead Cemetery or quiet commemorations at nearby Nunhead Green; Florist Nunhead sometimes prepares similar designs for walk-in consultations on Gordon Road or quick collections from the station. The overall effect is one of careful dignity and hope: a bright, tactile tribute that comforts, honours, and speaks plainly of a well-loved life.
BEST TRIBUTE
£210.00
A heartfelt, custom-made sympathy tribute reading "PAPA", each letter formed from tightly clustered white chrysanthemums arranged against a stark white backdrop. The flowers are plush and slightly ruffled, their clean, creamy-white tones conveying calm and reverence, while a subtle border of pale green ribbon and slender foliage frames each letter, sharpening the type and lending a natural, fresh edge. Light plays softly across the domed surfaces of the blooms, revealing the texture of individual petals and the meticulous placement that keeps each character legible from a distance. There is a faint floral warmth to the chrysanthemums' scent, gentle rather than sweet, the sort of quiet presence that comforts mourners as they gather. This piece is the kind we prepare for chapel orders, graveside services, or wake displays-an intimate, personal spelling that honours a fatherly figure with dignity. As a Nunhead florist familiar with local needs, Florist Nunhead crafts these designs with an eye toward the traditions of our area-counselling families choosing white-and-green tributes for services held near Nunhead Cemetery or small memorials in community churches around Rye Lane and Nunhead Green. The arrangement's restrained palette and careful construction make it an appropriate, timeless expression of condolence, a visual and fragrant emblem of purity, respect, and lasting remembrance.
WHITE PAPA TRIBUTE
£200.00
In this image, the word "GRANDPA" is spelled out in a striking floral display, each tall, block-style letter fashioned from a dense mosaic of white chrysanthemums. The chrysanthemums are arranged so tightly that they form a thick, plush layer of petals, giving the letters a soft yet solid appearance, like cushioned shapes resting in a row. The blooms are fresh and full, with subtle yellow-green centres that add a quietly living energy to the design. Around the outer edge of each letter, a narrow halo of pale lilac or light purple flowers is carefully woven, tracing every contour and adding a delicate outline that stands out gently against the stark white background. This soft band of colour gives the arrangement a soothing, contemplative tone, reminiscent of the calm paths and shaded corners around Nunhead Green.   

To bring warmth and individuality to the tribute, accent clusters of peach roses have been thoughtfully placed on several letters. The G carries a focal grouping of three to four peach roses, nestled among slender white lily buds and glossy green foliage that spills slightly over the white chrysanthemum surface. The first A features a single peach rose cradled in its leaves, while the D echoes the G with another small cluster of roses and foliage that adds depth and balance. The final A is crowned with one more rose, tying the composition together from left to right. The entire word is supported by a slim, dark bar, likely metal, that runs along the base of the letters yet remains unobtrusive. Captured against a clean, white backdrop, the tribute has a serene, dignified presence, much like a floral memorial you might see delivered by Florist Nunhead to a local chapel or crematorium to honour a much-loved grandfather.
ADMIRED GRANDPA TRIBUTE
£330.00
Crafted with care in Nunhead by experienced hands, this freestanding tribute spells the initials BA in bold, capital letters composed entirely of densely packed, pristine white chrysanthemum florets. The small, closely set blooms form a soft, tactile surface that reads like a cloud of white, catching gentle overhead light so the arrangement retains a tranquil, reverent glow. Each letter's edge is neatly trimmed with a royal blue satin ribbon whose lustre defines the shapes and introduces a measured, respectful contrast to the white field. The upper left curve of the B is accented with a compact spray of deep red roses-buds and partially opened blooms-paired with striking cobalt-blue delphinium-like spikes and fresh green tendrils that trail slightly, adding movement and life. A complementary cluster rests on the lower right section of the A, mirroring the same palette of velvety red, electric blue, and layered foliage to create balance and a thoughtful focal point. The pair sits securely on a dark green rectangular base, designed for chapel display or placement beside a memorial plaque, and photographed against a clean white background that keeps attention on the textures and hues. You can almost sense the gentle scent of roses beneath the clean chrysanthemum note, and the satin ribbon introduces a soft whisper of fabric under the blooms. As a bespoke sympathy piece for funeral or commemorative services in Nunhead, whether near Nunhead Cemetery or on Gordon Road, this arrangement communicates dignity, remembrance and a lovingly personalised farewell-prepared with local care by Florist Nunhead and available to support families in their moments of grief.
BA PERSONALISED TRIBUTE
£100.00
The photograph shows a personalised funeral tribute spelling out "GRANDMA" in large floral capitals, displayed as a single horizontal word against a white background reminiscent of a quiet service space in Nunhead. Each letter is meticulously formed from dense clusters of white cushion chrysanthemums, their small, rounded petals overlapping to create a smooth, plush surface that feels gentle and comforting. Around the perimeter of each letter, a soft edging of pale purple ribbon or backing subtly frames the blooms, lending a faint halo effect and a touch of soothing colour. Carefully placed red accent flowers draw the eye along the tribute, adding warmth and emotional depth. On the "G", a lush spray of deep red roses and a striking red-and-white variegated calla lily nestle into the curve, making a strong focal point of love and remembrance. The first "A" is adorned with a single, heart-shaped red anthurium at its base, its glossy, sculpted form standing out against the cushiony white background. At the centre, the "M" is decorated with another cluster of red roses, again accompanied by a vivid red anthurium, while the final "A" closes the sequence with one more anthurium, echoing the earlier details. Hints of rich green foliage provide contrast and hold the feature flowers in place, while a dark green metal stand or frame supports the letters, keeping them neatly arranged in a dignified line. The tribute feels both traditional and deeply personal, the kind of bespoke floral lettering a family in Nunhead might choose to accompany a grandmother's farewell, offering a clearly spelled message of love in flowers that will be remembered long after the service.
