Against a clean white background, this bouquet appears like a little piece of Dulwich calm, gathered from a flower-filled garden and tied by a careful hand. At its heart are plush garden roses in blush pink, dusty mauve, and antique rose tones, the petals opening in soft, layered spirals that immediately suggest romance and tenderness. Clusters of ruffled carnations and dianthus surround them, their petals rippling from creamy centres into edges washed with blush, rose, and hints of fuchsia, building a sense of depth and gentle movement across the bouquet. Weaving through these warm, nostalgic hues are deep indigo and royal blue blooms, some still held in elegant, bud-like forms, while one prominent open anemone with a dark, nearly black centre rests toward the front, introducing a dramatic, jewel-bright focus. Pale lavender and lilac stock flowers thread upwards, their many small blossoms lending a floaty, vertical structure and a hint of powdery fragrance that feels like walking past scented borders near Dulwich Village on an early evening. The flowers are nestled into abundant greenery: cool silver eucalyptus leaves, darker rose foliage, and additional soft greens that create a rounded, balanced shape and a sense of freshness. The stems are gathered neatly and left visible, clearly marking this as a hand-tied design, ready to slip into a favourite vase on a kitchen table in East or West Dulwich. The overall impression is one of quiet celebration and comfort, suited to birthdays, new beginnings, or simply letting someone know they are being thought of with care.

A generously proportioned floral arrangement in yellow, white, and green rests in a modern, low square glass vase, the entire design set against a clean white background that highlights each nuance of colour and texture. The bouquet is shaped into a bountiful dome, suggesting abundance and quiet celebration. At its heart, golden yellow roses provide focal points, their petals unfolding in soft spirals; some blooms are fully open, while others remain as graceful buds that promise more to come. Interwoven among them, clusters of smaller yellow spray roses add a lively, almost frothy layer, echoing the feel of a walk through a blooming garden off Dulwich Wood Avenue. Nestled among the yellows are white pompom chrysanthemums, tightly packed and spherical, their plush texture giving the arrangement body and softness. Bright lime green button chrysanthemums punctuate the bouquet like playful notes of citrus, while larger, frill-edged pale green flowers - reminiscent of ruffled carnations or specialist green mums - add a gentle, airy volume. The flowers are anchored by a rich bed of foliage: broad, slightly glossy green leaves with creamy, variegated edges and finer, darker filler stems that create depth and shadow. Small, star-shaped white filler flowers peek out between the larger blooms, introducing a delicate, lacy detail that lightens the whole design. Around the midsection of the clear glass vase, a rustic, textured wrap made from woven natural fibre or bark is secured, then accented with a fresh lime green ribbon that echoes the green mums above. Crafted with the care of an experienced local florist in Dulwich, this bouquet radiates optimism and comfort, making it ideal for birthdays, thank-you gifts, or simply brightening a cosy home near Dulwich Park with an elegant touch of nature.
FRESH BLOSSOM
£64.50
This exceptional Dulwich-inspired bouquet is a poetic union of shape, colour, and sentiment, inviting the observer into a lush floral fantasy. Hydrangeas burst in deep indigo and twilight teal hues, creating cloud-like clusters as a dramatic centrepiece worthy of Dulwich's renowned gardens. Entwined among them, roses unfurl in dreamy lavender-lilac and creamy white, their layered petals softening the bouquet's vivid impact. White ranunculus crowds close by, their multi-petaled forms providing cushiony contrast, while pale yellow-green eustoma buds and open blooms lend freshness-a thoughtful allusion to the tender green shoots in Dulwich Wood at daybreak. The lively energy of fuchsia-pink blooms shimmers through the more substantive petals, while airy feathery astilbe in pale pink hue caresses the bouquet's edge. Lacy green and white filler flowers offer subtle texture and movement, conjuring images of wild patchwork along rural East Dulwich lanes. An abundance of deep green leaves cradles the floral array, enhancing its natural look. Bound at the stems by a lavish royal purple satin ribbon, each element contributes to a harmonious whole. Ideal for commemorating milestones, housewarmings, or moments of closeness, this bouquet-handcrafted with care in Dulwich-embodies the neighbourhood's celebrated blend of tradition, creativity, and garden beauty.

This image shows a delicately composed bouquet in soft white and pink tones, photographed against a clean white background that allows every bloom to shine, much like a carefully arranged centerpiece in a Dulwich townhouse. At its heart stand two large white Oriental lilies, fully open so their broad petals curl back in graceful arcs, framing the deep reddish-brown stamens that provide a strong focal point. Around them cluster numerous pink roses, their shades gentle and romantic, ranging from tight buds with compact spirals of petals to fully opened rosettes where each petal unfolds in a soft wave. Slender stems of alstroemeria weave through the roses and lilies, bearing trumpet-shaped flowers in pale pink and white, some petals brushed with yellow and adorned with fine speckles, lending the bouquet a quietly intricate charm. Light, airy sprays of white baby's breath drift between the main flowers, breaking up the forms and adding a misty softness that keeps the arrangement from feeling too dense. A variety of green foliage surrounds the flowers, including glossy, wide leaves and more feathery, textured greens, which frame the blooms and evoke the greenery of nearby Dulwich Park or quiet tree-lined streets. All stems are gathered neatly into a clear, square glass vase, giving the design a modern, compact silhouette suitable for a bedside table, hallway console, or small dining setting. A pale pink satin ribbon is tied smoothly around the middle of the vase, adding a refined finishing touch. In the lower right corner of the image, a circular orange graphic with bold white capital text states "VASE INCLUDED," clearly indicating that the glass vessel is supplied with the flowers for easy, ready-made display in homes across Dulwich.

A colourful mixed bouquet is photographed upright against a clean white background, its rounded shape and harmonious palette immediately catching the eye. At the heart of the design, medium pink roses unfurl in soft layers, each bloom showing subtle gradations of pink that lend a romantic, garden-fresh feel. They are surrounded by bright yellow gerbera daisies whose large, open faces and deep brown centres create an instant sense of happiness, reminiscent of weekend strolls through Dulwich Park or a sunny morning on North Cross Road. Above the main cluster, tall, elegant stems of intense blue delphinium rise, their vertical lines and numerous small blossoms giving the bouquet height and a sophisticated edge. The flowers are interlaced with an abundance of greenery: light, feathery fern fronds drift outward at the edges; compact cushions of luminous green filler foliage sit between roses and gerberas, adding a tactile, almost mossy texture; and at the base, broad, polished tropical leaves, subtly striped in lighter green, are wrapped around the heads of the flowers to form a smooth, structured collar. Delicate, pale green stems tipped with tight buds reach out from the top, suggesting the bouquet has just been composed with fresh stems from a local Dulwich florist. The natural stems beneath are gathered tightly and bound with rustic twine or ribbon, reinforcing the hand-crafted quality. The composition feels both joyful and composed, making it ideal for marking milestone birthdays, sending congratulations to a new home near West Dulwich, or brightening an office along Lordship Lane with a burst of fresh colour delivered the same day.
NATURAL POETRY
£60.00
Captured against a clean, bright white backdrop, this round, densely arranged bouquet feels like a floral embrace, as if freshly prepared in a Dulwich flower shop and set on a spotless workbench. At the centre, several cream-coloured roses are fully open, their velvety petals spiralling outward in classic rosettes that immediately draw the eye. Surrounding them, delicate pink spray roses cluster in varying stages of bloom, their tiny buds and unfolding petals adding a lively rhythm and subtly deepening the pink tones. Tall enough to stand above the surrounding flowers, vibrant pink gerbera daisies bring a bolder accent, their characteristic flat petals circling deep brown centres that lend both contrast and a playful hint of drama. Between these larger blooms, pale pink carnations with elaborately ruffled edges provide a soft, billowy texture, making the bouquet look particularly full and indulgent. Slender stems of white alstroemeria are tucked among the roses and carnations, their petals streaked with fine reddish-brown markings that reward a closer look and add a sense of refined detail. Throughout the design, sprays of baby's breath form light, airy clusters of tiny white blossoms, creating a mist-like filler that softens the transitions between colours and shapes. Fresh green foliage and glimpses of bright stems beneath give the bouquet structure and a sense of natural vitality, reminiscent of the mature trees and lawns around Dulwich College and the leafy streets nearby. Neatly bound stems at the base reveal a careful, professional hand-tie, making the bouquet ready for a vase or immediate gifting. The overall effect is one of gentle celebration and sincere affection, ideal for birthdays, new homes, or quiet thank-yous across East Dulwich and beyond.
AMALFI LOVE
£59.00
In this stunningly arranged bouquet, freshly cut Gerbera daisies in a spectrum of warm and vibrant hues invite immediate joy-golden yellow, lush orange, and rich fuchsia blooms all artfully composed to dazzle the senses. Set in a simple yet elegant glass vase, each flower radiates outward, its color punctuated by a dramatically dark center, drawing eyes to the heart of the bouquet. Soft green leaves punctuate the display, bringing to mind the natural beauty found in Dulwich Park and the tranquil streets surrounding the area. The arrangement is wrapped by hand in natural-toned kraft paper, its rustic finish providing a pleasing counterbalance to the vibrant blooms, while a delicate sheen from the clear cellophane wrap ensures every petal remains perfectly in place. The stems, visible beneath the wrapping, are gathered together with rough-textured twine, adding an artisan touch associated with Flowers Dulwich's signature style. A petite white tag bearing a red rose icon hangs thoughtfully from the twine, offering a discreet hint at heartfelt gifting. Whether delivered to a home near Dulwich Village or given as a spontaneous gesture, this bouquet radiates gratitude and celebration-perfect for birthdays, anniversaries, or brightening the everyday.
SUNNY GARDEN
£49.00
In Dulwich, this graceful heart-shaped arrangement of pure white roses invites quiet admiration and conveys a story of love and new beginnings. Crafted with local expertise, the bouquet overflows with carefully chosen roses-some still in bud and others gently blooming-each petal smooth, creamy, and cool to the touch, edged in pale green that hints at their freshness straight from the market at North Cross Road. Arranged in a domed flourish above a sturdy matte black hatbox container, the white roses create a soothing contrast to the dramatic, scarlet satin ribbon tied elegantly at the front left, its sheen and bow adding a classic, sophisticated touch reminiscent of Dulwich's blend of tradition and modern living. Under soft lighting, the arrangement's textures and colours are perfectly balanced, making each flower and ribbon shimmer against the clear white background. The fragrance, subtle and inviting, reminds you of a quiet stroll through Dulwich Woods in spring. Perfect for local deliveries-to mark an anniversary, grace a wedding table at Belair House, or serve as a heartfelt sympathy arrangement-this luxurious composition offers warmth, love, and timeless style, all delivered with the gentle care of experienced florists from Flowers Dulwich.

NATURE'S PALETTE
£74.50
A vibrant mixed bouquet fills almost the entire frame, set against a spotless white background that makes every colour appear more intense, like wildflowers brought indoors from a sunny afternoon in Dulwich. The arrangement is shaped into a pleasingly rounded dome, with flowers tightly clustered to give a sense of fullness, balance, and skilled craftsmanship. Among the most eye-catching blooms are several bi-colour roses, their petals unfurling from bright, golden yellow centres into warm orange tones, fading gently into soft, ember-like red along the tips, creating a romantic, glowing effect. These roses are embraced by numerous white daisy-style chrysanthemums, each defined by a bright, lime-green centre that punctuates the bouquet with a crisp, contemporary energy, reminiscent of the fresh greens in Dulwich's gardens and allotments. Threaded throughout, clusters of deep magenta and fuchsia chrysanthemums provide velvety texture and a jewel-toned accent, their yellow-green cores echoing the daisies and adding harmony to the palette. Lush, dark green foliage peeks from between the flowers, its smooth, slightly glossy leaves adding depth and framing the blossoms much like trees surrounding the ponds in Dulwich Park. At the base of the bouquet, a bundle of stems is neatly gathered and cut, the varied shades of green and light brown clearly visible against the white, suggesting a freshly made, hand-tied bouquet ready to be placed in a favourite vase. The overall mood is one of joy, gratitude, and soft celebration, ideal for anniversaries in Victorian Dulwich homes, congratulations for local achievements, or simply sending a warm, colourful hello across SE21 and SE22.
BERRY BURST
£43.00
Against a simple white backdrop, this abundant bouquet of pink and lavender flowers appears luminous and inviting, like a fresh delivery set down on a hallway table in Dulwich. At its centre, two luxurious clusters of pale pink hydrangea command attention, each one a rounded dome composed of hundreds of tiny, ruffled petals that overlap to create a rich, plush texture. The hydrangeas' soft blush tones set the colour story for the entire arrangement, evoking feelings of tenderness and gentle celebration. Tucked between and around these main blooms are light pink roses, some fully open with classic, spiralling hearts, others still partially closed, their outer petals wrapping close around the centre in a protective embrace. The variation in openness gives the bouquet a sense of time and progression, as though capturing several stages of flowering in a single moment. Adding height and a whimsical touch are elegant bell-shaped flowers in pastel lavender and soft purple, reminiscent of campanula or cottage-style bellflowers. Their slender stems reach upward and slightly outward, creating light, dancing lines that contrast beautifully with the round volume of the hydrangeas and roses. Scattered among the larger flowers, tiny clusters of deeper fuchsia and rich pink filler blossoms bring texture and contrast, like a scattering of confetti over soft fabric. Fresh green foliage and budding stems weave throughout the bouquet, their cool tones anchoring the pastels and reinforcing the impression of freshly gathered garden blooms, perhaps echoing the borders you might see on quiet residential streets near Dulwich Wood or College Road. The stems are visibly gathered and tidily tied at the base, ready to be placed in a favourite vase. This carefully balanced design feels ideal for marking heartfelt occasions-birthdays, anniversaries, or a thoughtful gesture of thanks-across the Dulwich area.

The photograph captures a beautifully composed rose bouquet, expertly shaped into a compact dome that nearly fills the entire frame. The colour story is bold and unmistakable: deep red, luminous white, and royal blue roses are interspersed in a way that feels both structured and natural, echoing patriotic tones with a contemporary twist. Each bloom is fresh and lush, petals layered tightly in soft spirals, some just beginning to unfurl while others open wide to reveal their intricate centres. The red roses offer a velvety, almost wine-rich hue, the white roses appear creamy and clean, and the blue roses bring an intense, saturated splash of colour seldom seen in everyday arrangements. Glossy, dark green leaves peek out between the flowers, curving gently around the roses and adding a frame of natural texture without breaking the smooth, rounded outline. At the bottom, the stems are clearly visible, neatly trimmed and gathered in a tidy bunch, hinting at the skilled handiwork of a local Dulwich florist used to preparing bouquets for village homes and elegant townhouses.

£85.00
Bathed in gentle daylight evocative of an early walk near Dulwich Village, this bouquet comes alive within a round, clear glass vase, its surface glinting with a distinctive cracked texture. Soft lavender roses, their petals unfurling with quiet grace, form the heart of the arrangement, hinting at a subtle, sweet aroma. Their delicacy is contrasted and complemented by bold Gerbera daisies in radiant fuchsia pink, the blooms unfolding around deep, chocolatey centres and conveying warmth and optimism. Surrounding these statement flowers are lush, layered chrysanthemums in deep plum and magenta, their threadlike petals offering a tactile richness and surprise pops of greenish-yellow. Wisps of baby's breath meander through, their frothy white clusters brightening and softening the overall palette. Everything is anchored by generous, glossy green foliage, which peeks out and frames the arrangement.
