CHEAP FLOWERS
A lush, rounded bouquet of mixed flowers fills the frame against a spotless white backdrop, the colours seeming to leap forward with the clarity of a sunny morning over Sydenham. At the heart of the design, several fully opened roses glow in a gradient of golden yellow melting into warm orange and soft reddish-orange at the petal tips, their layered petals giving a silky, almost velvety texture. Surrounding them, neat white daisy-style chrysanthemums with vivid lime-green centres provide a crisp contrast, their simple shapes echoing wild daisies you might notice on walks toward Mayow Park. Scattered generously through the arrangement are clusters of rich magenta and fuchsia chrysanthemums, each one densely petalled and finished with a small yellow-green eye, adding both depth of colour and a slightly playful energy. Between the blooms, dark emerald foliage, likely ruscus or similar greenery, threads in and out, framing the brighter petals and bringing a natural rhythm to the composition. The bouquet is tightly hand-tied into a smooth, dome-like form, creating a feeling of fullness and generosity, while the neatly gathered stems at the base signal professional floristry and freshness. Imagining the light honeyed scent of the roses mingling with the green, earthy fragrance of the foliage, you get the sense of a bouquet chosen to brighten a hallway or dining table in a Sydenham home. This arrangement feels ideal for celebrating new beginnings, anniversaries, thank-you gestures, or simply adding an uplifting splash of colour to a rainy day, with its blend of yellow, orange, white, magenta, and green suitable for any season across the local community.
BERRY BURST
£43.00
This bouquet reads like a small English cutting garden gathered and tied by a careful hand: soft blush roses with petal-rich centres form the heart of the arrangement, their velvet texture offset by bright white berries that add glints of freshness throughout. Wisps of delicate white waxflower or astrantia weave through the composition, creating air and light between the denser rose heads, while silvery-blue eucalyptus rounds and fans provide cool, aromatic structure. Deeper pink and wine-hued accents nestle in the shadows for subtle contrast, and taller green-and-white spikes - suggestive of snapdragons - peek from the left and right, lending elegant height and movement. The stems are cinched with a cream-coloured satin ribbon, the classic hand-tied finish that signals bespoke attention to detail. Photographed against a softly carved, pale stone backdrop in gentle natural light, the bouquet radiates calm sophistication, perfect for quiet celebrations, a heartfelt thank-you, or to mark a new home. A white rectangular overlay frame carries the words "Florist" in a flowing script, "CHOICE" in small caps, and the clear price marker "£50," indicating a curated florist's choice option. As a local florist on Sydenham Hill, Sydenham Florist often arranges this palette for customers who want seasonal, aromatic bouquets delivered across SE26 and nearby Forest Hill or Penge - fresh, personal, and intentionally simple, with textures you can almost feel: the soft rose petals, the waxy berries, and the cool, dusty eucalyptus.
FLORIST CHOICE £50
£50.00
A lush, full bouquet presented against a clean white background, the arrangement balances exuberant colour with refined softness in every petal. Dominant magenta Gerbera daisies form bright focal points, their broad, flat petals arranged in concentric layers around dark, textured centres that catch the eye. Soft, creamy white roses are tucked between the Gerberas, their silky petals unfolding in classic spirals that add quiet romance and a gentle scent that one can almost sense from the image. Threads of deep purple Alstroemeria (Peruvian lilies) thread through the grouping, each small trumpet-shaped bloom carrying tiny speckles and a delicate, fluttering texture that adds depth and exotic charm. The bouquet is generously backed by glossy green foliage-large leaves and slimmer lanceolate stems-that give structure and a shadowed backdrop, helping the colours to pop. A subtle clear glass vase peeks out at the bottom, suggesting fresh stems and a professional finish. The overall mood is joyful and elegant, suited to celebratory moments or thoughtful gestures. As a local florist arranging for homes around Sydenham Road, Kirkdale and the Crystal Palace triangle, Sydenham Florist often composes this palette for same-day deliveries to nearby cafés and terraces; under morning light the contrast of cream and magenta reads as cool and bright, while the Alstroemeria's patterns bring a handcrafted detail that feels distinctly neighbourhood-made.
MESMERIZING HARMONY
£49.00
A celebratory pink bouquet for an expectant mother is shown in full detail, standing proudly against a plain white backdrop that lets every colour sing. At first glance, the intense fuchsia gerbera daisies seem to radiate from the centre, their broad, slightly textured petals circling dark eyes that add depth and drama. Tucked among them, soft pink roses in shades from blush to warm rosewood provide a gentler note, some still tightly wrapped as buds, others partway open with velvety layers just beginning to spiral outward. Tiny purple filler flowers peek from between the main blooms, like scattered confetti, threading a subtle lavender tone through the design. Lush greenery surrounds and supports the flowers, with arching leaves and smaller, glossy fronds creating a sense of movement and freshness reminiscent of the tree-lined paths of Sydenham Wells Park. The stems disappear into multiple layers of pink tissue, from pale candy floss to richer berry hues, all wrapped in a clear, shining cellophane that crinkles softly and amplifies the sense of a gift lovingly presented. Just beneath the blooms sits a round foil balloon, its bright pink surface dotted with crisp white spots and edged with a delicate scalloped outline. Across the centre, in elegant white script, the message "Mum to Be!" feels both joyful and personal, framed by a simple heart motif that suggests the closeness of family. The overall mood is tender yet upbeat, like a shared smile at a baby shower held in a Sydenham home, and the bouquet appears ready for doorstep delivery to celebrate pregnancy, a gender reveal, or those intimate moments of anticipation before a baby's arrival.
MUM TO BE
£60.00
A fresh, elegant bouquet captured upright on a white background, where the quiet purity of white flowers is the leading impression. Broad clusters of white, daisy-like chrysanthemums form the visual anchor, each bloom composed of many narrow petals circling a pale yellow centre that catches the eye like a small, sunny core. Threaded among them are several long, pale green-yellow lily buds-some subtly striped along their flanks-held in reserve, their closed forms suggesting forthcoming drama and hope. Scattered throughout are delicate clouds of gypsophila (baby's breath), whose fine, lace-like texture lifts the composition and creates gentle breathing space between the larger blooms. Dark green foliage with glossy surfaces provides depth and frames the white flowers with a fresh contrast that enhances their clarity. The bouquet is hand-gathered and wrapped in a rustic sheet of crinkled brown kraft paper, finished with a clear cellophane overwrap that glints in soft light and protects the stems; the gathered base is neatly tied so the stems form a portable, stable bundle. There is a subtle, clean fragrance-green, slightly grassy, with the faint sweetness of cut petals-that evokes an early morning market stall on Sydenham High Street near the station. As a local Sydenham choice, this arrangement carries a feeling of reassurance and gentle uplift, appropriate for new beginnings, birthdays, get-well wishes, or quiet remembrances delivered around the neighbourhood or to nearby Crystal Palace.
PURE ELEGANCE
£65.00
A vibrant mixed bouquet overflows from a neat white cube box, photographed against a pure white backdrop so that every petal and leaf appears almost to glow. The arrangement forms a rounded, generous dome of colour, dominated by cheerful yellow tones that suggest the warmth of a sunny morning over Sydenham High Street. Large, plush yellow chrysanthemums sit alongside clusters of compact yellow spray roses, some still tightly furled, others beginning to unfurl their soft petals. Between these golden tones, crisp white chrysanthemums add freshness: small daisy-like heads with bright green eyes nestle next to larger, fluffier white blooms that create airy pockets of light within the denser design. Striking fuchsia and magenta chrysanthemums weave through the bouquet like ribbons, some petals tipped in softer pink, adding depth and a slightly romantic note without overpowering the yellows and whites. Delicate touches of pale pink and additional yellow rosebuds are scattered through the arrangement, hinting at fragrance and future bloom. Around the base and peeking between flowers are glossy dark green leaves, forming a smart collar that frames the colours and gives the whole piece a polished finish. The flowers are arranged in a minimalist white square box that serves as a contemporary alternative to a vase, ideal for easy delivery to homes and offices around Sydenham and nearby Forest Hill. Overall, the image conveys a sense of bright optimism and thoughtful craftsmanship, perfect for marking birthdays, thank-you gestures, or simply bringing uplifting colour to a kitchen table or work desk.
SPARKLING EYES
£50.00
A lush dome of chrysanthemums is captured in crisp detail against a clean white backdrop, every petal and leaf standing out as if in soft daylight. The bouquet is built around layers of white and creamy-yellow chrysanthemum heads, their petals feathering outwards from pale green and lemony centres to form full, cushiony blooms that give the arrangement a traditional, almost nostalgic charm. Threaded between these larger flowers are delicate sprays of tiny white chrysanthemums, each resembling a miniature daisy, which soften the composition and create a sense of gentle movement, like a breeze over the gardens tucked behind Sydenham homes. Punctuating the whites and creams are clusters of vivid lime green pompon chrysanthemums, perfectly round and tightly packed, adding playful texture and a modern jolt of colour that feels as fresh as the lawns and borders around Crystal Palace Park. Deep green foliage forms a subtle background to the blooms, emerging here and there to add structure and a natural, garden-grown feel. At the base, the stems are drawn together in a neat hand-tied bundle, bound with a wide, satiny lime green ribbon fashioned into a multi-looped bow that gleams softly and echoes the green pompons above. The bouquet radiates serenity and optimism, making it an ideal choice for sending calm encouragement, a get-well wish, or quiet congratulations to someone in or around Sydenham, where simple, elegant flowers still speak volumes.
