LETTER TRIBUTES
A carefully composed sympathy tribute spelling DAD in large, three-dimensional block letters, each letter densely covered with pristine white chrysanthemum blooms that give a soft, cloud-like surface. A vibrant emerald-green pleated ribbon crisply defines the edge of every letter, adding formal structure and a respectful contrast to the white faces. To introduce focal points of colour and warmth, each character carries an elegant cluster of deep red roses paired with delicate white freesia: the first cluster adorns the upper curve of the left D, a second nestles near the base of the left diagonal of the A with a graceful sweep of foliage, and a third mirrors the first on the upper curve of the right D. Fine strands of bright green foliage or bear-grass curl gently through the A, adding modern movement and a hint of optimism amid the solemnity. Behind the letters, slim dark green or black support bars are subtly visible, engineered to keep the display secure for standing memorials or graveside placement. The arrangement is photographed against a bright white background with soft, even lighting that reveals the chrysanthemums' texture and the roses' velvety depth, while the freesia lends a faint citrus top note to the floral scent. Crafted with the sensitivity of an experienced local florist, this design is representative of the bespoke sympathy pieces we create for families across Dulwich and East Dulwich; Flowers Dulwich can adapt size and finishing for services around Lordship Lane, College Road and Dulwich Village when requested.
ENDLESS LOVE DAD TRIBUTE
£155.00
A serene, studio-style photograph captures a three-letter memorial tribute spelling "MOM," thoughtfully designed for a funeral or remembrance service in the Dulwich area. The background is a soft, neutral grey, chosen to allow every bloom and leaf to stand out clearly without distraction. At the centre of the picture, a neat white rectangular overlay frames the floral letters, giving the composition a calm, ordered feel. Each of the three letters is expertly shaped from clusters of pure white chrysanthemums, placed so densely that their small, frilled petals form a smooth, velvet-like surface, suggesting both comfort and quiet dignity. On the left-hand "M," a lush accent of vibrant fuchsia pink rose, supported by lighter pink rosebuds and sprays, sits at the upper left corner, with airy green fern fronds adding elegant movement and a hint of garden freshness, reminiscent of the greenery around Dulwich Village. The central "O" is only lightly adorned, with a single pink rose resting at its base like a small, personal gesture from family. On the right-hand side, the second "M" repeats the design, bearing its own cluster of pink roses and fern on the upper right, creating a sense of symmetry and thoughtful balance. Beyond the white frame, only partial views of other chrysanthemum letters appear, decorated in the same white-and-pink style, suggesting that complete names or tender words can be created for local services and wakes. Overlapping the central tribute, white text reads "3 LETTER" in a clear, modern typeface and "Tribute" in graceful script, clearly describing this as a three-letter floral arrangement made to honour a beloved mother with understated beauty.
3 LETTER TRIBUTE
£155.00
A compassionate memorial piece forming the word DAD in full capital letters, each letter lovingly covered in layers of small, snow-white chrysanthemums and comparable button-style blooms, giving the letters a plush, tactile surface. A deep green satin ribbon traces the outer perimeter of each letter, the sheen of the ribbon catching soft light and framing the white blossoms with a stately, natural edge. The display is designed to stand, with subtle dark support bars showing behind the letters and keeping the message dignified and upright for viewing at a funeral chapel or wake. At the top left of the first D and the top right of the last D, delicate sprays of white freesia and fresh green foliage provide gentle accents that balance the structure with living softness. Connecting the left D to the central A are two long, graceful stems that arch diagonally and bring motion into the composition; where they meet, a modest yet striking cluster of two deep purple calla lilies nestles amid freesia and leaves, offering a rich, solemn contrast that sets a reflective tone. The overall palette of white, green and a touch of deep purple feels calming and reverent, reminiscent of quiet moments near Dulwich Park or a family chapel on Lordship Lane. This tribute reads as both personal and universal - a measured expression of love, remembrance and the small comforts of floral craft at a time of loss.
PEACEFUL DAD TRIBUTE
£160.00
This image gently showcases the idea of a four-letter floral tribute, a style of sympathy arrangement often seen at funeral services around Dulwich Village and the surrounding streets. Dominating the centre is a dark, smoky grey square with softened edges, surrounded by a slim white frame and set against a smooth, light grey background that keeps the focus entirely on the tribute. On the square, clear white lettering spells "4 LETTER" in simple capitals, while the word "Tribute" beneath flows in a more decorative script, echoing the personal touch of a handwritten farewell. The square is semi-transparent, not solid, so the flowers behind it are still visible, their colour and form pressing softly through. Stretching beyond either side of this overlay are four substantial floral letters, created by packing hundreds of small white chrysanthemums tightly together. These blooms form a plush, textured surface that looks soft and comforting, a familiar style in traditional funeral work. Around the outer edge of each letter, a fine band of pale pink ribbon or fabric backing just peeks through, providing a gentle blush of colour without overshadowing the purity of the white flowers. Set into the chrysanthemum base are bright red roses, their layered, spiralling petals nestled among glossy green foliage, perhaps fern or ruscus, similar to greenery found in well-tended Dulwich gardens. The roses provide focal points of rich colour and emotion, symbolising enduring love amidst loss. The lighting is calm and balanced, free from harsh contrasts, allowing the viewer to appreciate the structure and detail of the floral letters. Together, the text and imagery quietly communicate the availability of custom letter tributes and personalised funeral flowers, suitable for services held in and around Dulwich.
4 LETTER TRIBUTE
£200.00
A bespoke five-letter floral tribute is presented on a clean light grey background, its composition thoughtful and composed, much like the elegant streets around Dulwich Village. The tribute consists of large, upright letters completely encrusted with tightly packed white chrysanthemums, their petals forming a soft, cushion-like layer that suggests tenderness and care. Encircling each letter is a band of deep purple satin ribbon, providing a crisp outline and a sense of formality; the rich purple tone introduces depth and gravitas, perfect for a funeral, memorial, or celebration of life. Delicately placed along the letters are small clusters of pale pink and mauve spray roses, interspersed with airy green fern fronds and foliage, adding a gentle pop of colour and a touch of natural movement reminiscent of the planting in nearby Dulwich Park gardens. Some of the letters are partly hidden by a central overlay, but the visible shapes indicate the name "JOHN A," demonstrating how a loved one's name or a meaningful five-letter word can be spelled out in flowers. At the centre, a square grey overlay, slightly darker than the background and framed in white, bears the text "5 LETTER Tribute." The phrase "5 LETTER" appears in a simple uppercase sans-serif typeface, while "Tribute" flows beneath in a cursive script, mirroring the hand-crafted artistry of the floral work. The overall effect is of a calm, respectful tribute that balances purity, colour, and structure-exactly the kind of personalised funeral arrangement families in Dulwich might choose when working with Flowers Dulwich to mark a farewell with beauty and heartfelt meaning.
5 LETTER TRIBUTE
£240.00
This image presents a thoughtfully crafted memorial feature spelling DAD in bold capital letters, each letter formed from a dense carpet of soft white chrysanthemums or like blooms, producing a plush, uniform surface that reads both tender and solemn. A vivid emerald green ribbon, pleated or gently ruffled, traces the edges of every letter, its crisp colour sharply defining the shapes against the pristine white field and suggesting the steady calm often associated with paternal steadiness. A subtle dark green or grey bar runs behind and slightly through the base of the letters, the discreet support that allows the piece to stand on an easel or rest at a graveside. Floral accent clusters are placed with deliberate symmetry: the left-hand D bears a cluster near the upper left curve, the A is embraced by a bouquet positioned in its lower central V, and the final D mirrors the first with a cluster on the upper right curve. Each cluster mixes rich magenta or deep pink roses-some just unfurling, some open enough to show layered petals-with crisp white freesia or small white spray blooms and luxuriant dark green foliage to add structure and scent. The overall mood is one of respectful warmth, the contrast of emerald trim and fuchsia accents giving a modern edge to a classic sympathy piece. Locally in Dulwich, from College Road gatherings to small wakes near Lordship Lane, this style is often chosen to convey measured grief and enduring love.
GRACIOUS DAD TRIBUTE
£155.00
6 LETTER TRIBUTE
£290.00
A deeply reverent floral tribute, hand-shaped into the freestanding letters DAD, each letter sculpted from a dense carpet of immaculate white spray chrysanthemums that give a soft, pillowed appearance. Each letter's silhouette is sharply defined by a ruffled, dark green satin ribbon that outlines every curve and aperture, the green acting as a subtle, steadying counterpoint to the pure white blooms. Thin, dark support bars are visible behind the letters, a reminder of the careful mechanics that let this memorial read clearly at a funeral or graveside. On the leftmost D a vivid cluster of sunny yellow roses - arranged as three to four open blooms - sits on the upper curve, complemented by delicate white freesia or gypsophila and fresh foliage; from that cluster two slender green stems extend diagonally toward the centre, drawing the eye to the A. The central letter bears a refined accent low on its diagonal: two deep purple or burgundy calla lilies, their smooth, sculptural forms introducing a tone of quiet dignity, surrounded by small white accent flowers. The right D mirrors the left, repeating the cheerful yellow rose cluster that brings warmth and remembrance.

The overall mood is one of calm clarity: tactile whites, satin sheen, and the bittersweet perfume of roses and freesia. As a florist who knows Dulwich - from the lanes around the Dulwich Picture Gallery to the cafés of East Dulwich - I would recommend this arrangement for memorial services where legibility and heartfelt detail matter. It sits beautifully in soft daylight, is crafted with lasting mechanics for transport, and is available for attentive local delivery within Dulwich and neighbouring SE21 streets.
FOREVER CHERISHED DAD TRIBUTE
£165.00
Here, a touching "DAD" floral tribute is shown against a clean, bright white background, its colours and shapes clearly defined and easy to imagine. Each of the three freestanding letters is built around a lush border of deep green fern leaves, whose fine, arching fronds outline the strong block capitals and give them a soft, natural frame. The main surfaces of the letters are densely filled with pristine white chrysanthemums and broad-faced white gerbera daisies, layered so closely that no gaps of foliage show through, creating a smooth, cloud-like effect symbolising calm and farewell. Interspersed among the whites are pockets of cheerful yellow-small gerbera blooms, delicate yellow spray roses, and tiny button-shaped flowers-that add light, hope, and warmth, much like the gentle atmosphere of Dulwich Village on a sunny day. Deeper, more contemplative tones are introduced with purple lisianthus, touches of lavender blossoms, and vivid magenta or deep pink spray roses, their smaller petals adding texture and expressing love and gratitude. Scattered lime-green button chrysanthemums and subtle green fillers echo the mature trees and gardens around Dulwich and Herne Hill, bringing a fresh, living quality to the design. The letters are set in a straight row and unified by slim, dark green bars that discreetly support them from behind, ensuring the word "DAD" reads as one strong, continuous tribute. This is the sort of handcrafted funeral arrangement a Dulwich family might place by the coffin or hearse, a personalised floral message that combines classic white sympathy flowers with gentle colour to celebrate a father's life and the memories he leaves behind.
LOVING DAD TRIBUTE
£190.00
In this gentle, dignified image, a customised seven-letter funeral tribute spelling "GRANDMA" is presented with an understated elegance that suits the tranquil character of Dulwich. The backdrop is a uniform, medium grey, soft enough to evoke overcast light filtering through church windows on a memorial afternoon. Dominating the centre is a slightly darker grey square bordered by a fine white line, appearing almost like a framed card resting in front of the flowers. Within this square, white text reads "7" in a large, bold character at the top, followed by the word "LETTER" in smaller uppercase sans-serif type, and the word "Tribute" sweeping across in a graceful script, suggesting both formality and heartfelt sentiment. Peering out from either side of the square are the floral letters that complete the word "GRANDMA." Each letter is constructed from a thick bed of white chrysanthemums or similar small, tightly petalled blooms, creating a plush, cushion-like surface. The white flowers give the tribute a sense of purity and serenity, perfectly suited to a funeral service in a Dulwich church or crematorium. Nestled among the white petals are delicate accents of vivid purple flowers, likely lisianthus or miniature roses, and snippets of fresh green foliage that add depth and life. The rolled curve of the 'G' is clearly visible on the left, with the sequence of 'R,' 'A,' 'N,' 'D,' 'M,' and the final 'A' suggested through glimpses of their edges as they extend across the background. The overall mood is thoughtful and composed, reflecting the care of a local florist who understands how to translate a family's love into a personalised floral letter tribute for farewell services in Dulwich and the surrounding SE21 and SE22 areas.
7 LETTER TRIBUTE
£330.00
A tender, expertly constructed funeral tribute spells "MUM" in large, connected capital letters, the kind of piece we prepare by hand in Dulwich for intimate memorials. The body of each letter is composed of tightly packed, snowy white chrysanthemums whose small, layered petals create a uniform, pillowy texture that suggests peaceful remembrance. A soft, ruffled light-pink ribbon traces the outer edges, introducing a warm, compassionate accent that frames the white blooms like a quiet embrace. Between the letters a subtle dark-green support frame peeks through - the hidden armature that keeps the tribute upright and composed during a chapel service or graveside farewell. Three coordinated accent posies break the white field with saturated colour: rich fuchsia roses in varying stages of bloom, glossy ferny foliage, and clusters of coral hypericum berries. One small posy sits at the upper left shoulder of the first M, a second nestles in the curve of the U, and a third crowns the upper right of the final M, creating harmonious balance across the design. The arrangement carries a gentle, green-floral scent and a tactile contrast between the soft chrysanthemum heads and the velvety rose petals. As a local florist I picture this tribute arriving at St. Barnabas Church or being placed at a service near Lordship Lane; it's the kind of personalised sympathy floral piece families in Dulwich ask for when they want to honour a mother with beauty and dignity. Flowers Dulwich crafts and delivers such tributes with care for local ceremonies and cemetery remembrances.
FOREVER ADORED MUM TRIBUTE
£155.00
A beautifully composed floral tribute spelling out the words "OUR MUM" is arranged in a long line, resting on a hidden green frame and set against a clear white background so that the colours and textures appear crisp and undistracted. Each letter is formed in robust block capitals and filled edge to edge with small, tight white chrysanthemum-style blooms, meticulously placed to create a plush, seamless surface with no gaps, giving an impression of gentle softness and careful attention. Embracing the outside of every letter is a narrow but dense border of deep red flowers, likely spray carnations, which follow the contours precisely and provide a clear, defined edge that stands out against the white interior. The slim, dark green supports that connect the letters are barely visible, hinting at the sturdy construction that allows this "OUR MUM" tribute to sit securely on a coffin top or at the front of a chapel during a funeral or memorial. Adding a layer of richness and emotional symbolism, three clusters of red roses are woven into the arrangement. One sits between the first "O" and "U", one between the "U" and first "M", and the third towards the right side of the final "M". The roses are a deep, velvety red, partially open to reveal their layered petals, and are backed by fresh green foliage and delicate fern, giving the design height, fragrance, and movement. The harmonious blend of white, red, and green creates a tribute that feels both classic and deeply personal, the kind of arrangement a family in Dulwich might send from West Dulwich or East Dulwich to honour a mother's love, strength, and presence in their lives.
OUR MUM TRIBUTE
£290.00
This large, carefully constructed memorial spells MUM in strong, three-dimensional capital letters, each letter completely cloaked in hundreds of fresh white spray chrysanthemums to achieve a uniform, pillow-soft surface that reads as serene and pure. The pristine white heads create a soft halo against a brilliant white backdrop, their texture dense and reassuring rather than fussy; the subtle, sweet rose scent mingles faintly with the freshest green leaf perfume. Delicate accents of muted lavender roses and small blush-pink rosebuds are placed in three balanced clusters - one on the upper left of the first M, another cradled in the U's curve, and the final on the upper right of the last M - each set into a bed of lively green foliage and slender fern-like leaves that lend movement and depth. A darker green support frame, possibly wrapped in ribbon or mossed foam, is visible at the letter bases and along shadowed edges, anchoring the tribute and ensuring it retains a sculptural form for display. The composition reads as a compassionate, time-honoured sympathy piece intended for a funeral service, memorial, or graveside dedication; its calm palette of white and pastels suggests peace and remembrance. As a local florist accustomed to serving Dulwich and nearby East Dulwich, I picture this standing tribute placed with care at a chapel near Dulwich Picture Gallery or laid gently at a graveside in Dulwich Village, offering a quiet, respectful message of love.
PURPLE ACCENTED MUM TRIBUTE
£155.00
This detailed image shows a traditional "MUM" floral tribute, the sort of lovingly crafted piece you might see resting near the altar in a Dulwich church or chapel during a memorial service. The word is formed in strong, capital block letters connected by a discreet dark green base, almost like a rail, which offers quiet structural support. Each letter is entirely covered with small white spray chrysanthemums, set so close together that they create a soft but solid blanket of petals. The flowers are fresh and pristine, their rounded heads forming a slightly domed shape that looks inviting to the touch, like a cushion of blossoms. Under soft, even lighting, the whites appear clean and calm, with just enough shadow between blooms to show their individual forms. To break the expanse of white and introduce personal warmth, three identical accent sprays of pink roses and greenery have been added. On the top left of the first "M", a rich cluster of fuchsia roses and paler pink spray roses rests on the chrysanthemums, each rose layered with velvety petals spiralling toward the centre. Fern fronds thread gracefully through the arrangement, their feathery texture a delicate contrast to the more substantial rose blooms. Another cluster is carefully cradled in the bottom centre of the "U", positioned as if someone had gently laid a little posy there. The final accent sits at the upper right of the last "M", mirroring the first cluster and bringing visual balance. The combination of white chrysanthemums symbolising remembrance and pink roses suggesting affection and gratitude makes this design a heartfelt expression of love. It is the kind of tribute Dulwich families choose when they wish their final message to a much-loved mother to be spoken quietly but unmistakably in flowers.
PINK GARDEN MUM TRIBUTE
£155.00
The photograph shows a beautifully arranged floral tribute spelling out "MUM" in large, elegant block letters, designed for a funeral or memorial service. Every letter is formed from a tight mass of white spray chrysanthemums, each tiny, star-like flower packed closely together to give an even, cushiony surface. The white blooms create a sense of purity and peace, and their soft, rounded shapes lend a comforting, almost pillow-like appearance to the arrangement. A slim trace of dark green can be seen outlining the letters, likely from a supporting frame and ribbon, which provides structure and helps the word stand out crisply against the plain white background. Three accents of warmer colour have been thoughtfully woven into the tribute: a cluster of soft peach and blush roses perches on the top left of the first "M", another nestles at the bottom centre of the central "U", and the final cluster rests on the top right of the second "M". Within each group, open roses mix with buds just beginning to unfurl, surrounded by delicate fronds of fern and glossy green foliage. These touches of colour and leafy texture break the expanse of white in a gentle, balanced way, like small, heartfelt notes in a quiet piece of music. The overall mood is one of dignity, tenderness, and personal connection, the kind of bespoke piece that might be delivered by Flowers Dulwich to a local church or crematorium, offering a loving farewell to a much-cherished mother from her family.
PEACH ACCENTS MUM TRIBUTE
£155.00
This bespoke memorial arrangement spells out MUM in three substantial, sculpted letters made from dense white chrysanthemums that read as a soft, tactile field of petals. Tiny clusters of deep purple and magenta spray blooms are artfully dispersed through the white, adding subtle patterned interest and depth without overwhelming the serene base. Bright pink spray roses punctuate the design as tender focal points: the left-hand M is adorned at its upper left with a compact cluster of pink roses, rich fern fronds and a few delicate blue accent flowers; the central U cradles a more generous bouquet of four to five pink roses nested into its lower curve with abundant green foliage; the right-hand M returns the motif with a matching rose cluster at its upper right, creating a calm, symmetrical balance. The letters are lightly framed along their edges with a soft purple ribbon that helps define the shape, and a discreet dark horizontal bar connects them, giving the tribute structural cohesion. Viewed in gentle daylight the arrangement reads as both a statement of love and a quiet, comforting presence-white for remembrance, magenta for memory, and pink for affection. The scent profile is faintly floral, leaning on chrysanthemum freshness with rose sweetness. As a local arrangement fashioned for families around Dulwich Village and Dulwich Park, it feels personal and handcrafted, an elegant yet restrained tribute suitable for funerals, memorial gatherings, or a ceremonial display that honours a mother with dignity and warmth.
PURPLE & WHITE MUM TRIBUTE
£155.00
Against a pristine white backdrop, a beautifully considered funeral tribute spells the word "MUM" in large, imposing letters that still manage to feel soft and tender. The faces of the three letters are entirely covered with small, velvety blooms in rich magenta and deep purple, most likely spray chrysanthemums selected for their durability and full, petal-packed heads. The tiny lime-green centres dot the arrangement with subtle brightness, preventing the deeper tones from becoming sombre and instead evoking a feeling of warm remembrance. Along the sides runs a pale pink, finely ruffled ribbon, folded and pinned with care so that each pleat follows the contours of the letters, lending a couture-like finish similar to a carefully trimmed gown. On the top left of the first "M", a cluster of bright pink roses, partially open and in bud, is framed by feathery fern fronds and fresh foliage, a detail that recalls the relaxed greenery of Dulwich Park on a still morning. The central "U" cradles a small arrangement at its base, composed of soft blush roses, cream-toned blooms, and leaves, shaped to echo the gentle curve of the letter. The final "M" balances the composition with its own spray of vivid pink roses and fern on the top right, giving the tribute a harmonious, complete feel. Suitable for church services, cremations, or home gatherings throughout Dulwich, this design expresses enduring affection and respect for a mother, capturing both grief and gratitude in flowers.
LOVING MUM TRIBUTE
£160.00
This studio shot, captured against a stark white backdrop, presents a dignified, three-letter memorial spelling BRO in pronounced, freestanding capitals. The surface of each letter is entirely covered with rich royal blue chrysanthemums, their dense, cushion-like heads producing a uniform, tactile field of colour that reads both intense and serene. A thin white base or foam frame peeks through in the loops and edges, giving the letters structure while the massed blooms remain the visual focus. At the base of each character are small, artful sprays of accent flowers: creamy ivory spray roses in various stages of opening, tiny white filler blooms such as mini chrysanthemums or baby's breath, and mixed greenery including broad, glossy salal-type leaves and lighter, feathery fern fronds. The placement of these clusters - lower-left on the B, lower-right on the R and O - balances the composition and softens the strong silhouette of the blue letters. The photographic lighting is even and neutral, letting the cool, jewel-like blue register clearly against the white and allowing the cream and green accents to read as solace and calm. Texturally the arrangement feels lush and tactile, the blooms almost velvety to the eye, while the accents introduce a delicate scent and visual respite. In the context of Dulwich and neighbouring East Dulwich, this would be the sort of personalised memorial piece requested for a family service or chapel room, conveying sincerity, quiet strength and a tender remembrance of a brother or close companion.
PERSONALISED BRO TRIBUTE
£165.00
A bespoke funeral tribute lovingly spells out the name "KATE" in large, three-dimensional letters formed from a uniform carpet of small white chrysanthemums, their dense, cushiony heads creating a serene, matte surface that evokes purity and quiet. Each letter is neatly edged with a soft, pale pink pleated ribbon which frames the white blooms and introduces a whisper of colour that softens the overall silhouette. Against this pristine backdrop, clusters of vibrant red anthuriums punctuate the design - their glossy, heart-shaped spathes and prominent yellowish spadices draw the eye and lend warmth and dignity to the composition. Dark green foliage, including broad glossy leaves and delicate fern fronds, is artfully tucked around and between the flowers, while fine green tendrils trail and weave between the letters to suggest unity and flow. The piece casts a subtle drop shadow on the white surface beneath, emphasizing the careful three-dimensional shaping and the florist's attention to proportion. Crafted with the sensibility of a Dulwich floral studio, this arrangement is suitable for memorials held locally - from St Barnabas or the small chapels near Lordship Lane to a quiet celebration of life beside Dulwich Park. The chrysanthemum base carries a gentle green fragrance, the anthuriums add a cool, waxy scent and the whole effect is composed, comforting and deeply personal. Flowers Dulwich prepares tributes like this with an emphasis on respectful detail and local delivery across Dulwich and East Dulwich for families seeking a thoughtful, handcrafted memorial.
DARLING KATE TRIBUTE
£200.00
This precise floral lettering is a personalised memorial piece spelling "KATE" in solid, three-dimensional block letters, each letter composed entirely of tightly clustered, immaculate white chrysanthemums that form a plush, cloud-like surface. The letters are edged with a delicate pale pink satin ribbon, pleated and gently stitched to create a subtle framing that softens the geometry and introduces a warm blush against the bright white. Each letter is individually embellished with a single, sumptuous deep red rose-its velvety petals releasing a faint, classic rose scent-and surrounded by a generous spray of mixed foliage, from broad, glossy laurel-style leaves to softer fern fronds that add graceful movement. Placement is carefully considered: the K's rose and greenery sit on the lower part of its left vertical stroke, the A's accent balances the peak at the top centre, the T's rose is warmed into the base of the left side of its crossbar, and the E's bloom nestles on the middle horizontal arm. Set on a pristine white backdrop with soft directional lighting, the arrangement's textures and tonal contrasts read clearly for viewers and in photographs. As a florist working in Dulwich I imagine this tribute placed near a funeral service at a local chapel on Lordship Lane or by a commemorative display at Dulwich Village - a piece that says love, purity, and lasting remembrance. Flowers Dulwich created compositions like this with quiet attention to proportion, scent, and the gentle symbolism appropriate for a loving farewell.
RED KATE CUSTOM TRIBUTE
£200.00
Presented on a plain white field, the name KATE rises in elegant, life-sized letters, each one a miniature landscape of white chrysanthemums so tightly packed they form a plush, snowlike surface. Along the rims a soft pale-pink satin ribbon sighs like a quiet breath, its sheen catching the ambient light and adding a tender halo to the shapes. Clusters of colour are placed with mindful restraint: deep fuchsia-pink roses with luxurious petals, groups of delicate pastel spray roses, and pinpoints of purple-blue blooms - possibly statice or small lisianthus - that offer cool counterpoints to the warmth of the pinks. The K bears a prominent diagonal spray; the A holds a rounded cluster by its lower right; the T is grounded with a floral grouping at its base; and the E carries two accents that balance the whole composition. Interspersed between the flowers are sprigs of fern and rounded eucalyptus leaves, their matte greens adding softness and a lived-in texture. The scent is gentle rather than overpowering, a subtle mingling of rose and fresh foliage that matches the subdued light in which the letters are photographed. Emotionally, the arrangement reads as a careful, personalised farewell - a tribute that speaks when words feel inadequate. It's the kind of custom sympathy design commissioned for a funeral service or a celebration of life, offering both visual comfort and the quiet dignity of thoughtful floristry.
LOVING CUSTOM TRIBUTE
£200.00
The image shows a bespoke funeral flower arrangement that spells out the name "KATE" in large, block-style capital letters, arranged against a simple white backdrop so every floral detail can be clearly appreciated. Each letter is fully covered with tightly grouped white chrysanthemums, their rounded heads forming a plush, blanket-like surface that conveys softness and purity. Around the perimeter of every letter runs a light pink satin ribbon, softly ruffled, which adds a delicate blush of colour and gives each shape a refined, finished edge. Set into this white canvas are a few carefully chosen feature blooms. On the left side of the "K" and at the lower part of the "T", lime-green cymbidium orchids with distinctive reddish-brown throats sit nestled among rich, dark leaves and feathery greenery, creating a fresh contrast. On the "A" and "E", heart-shaped red anthurium flowers, with their glossy, almost porcelain-like texture, offer a bolder splash of colour that speaks of deep affection and heartfelt farewell. Fine green tendrils and trailing foliage sweep across sections of the name, gently linking one letter to the next and adding movement and flow to the design. The tribute feels balanced and considered, the type of personalised memorial arrangement that might be chosen for a farewell service in Dulwich, perhaps for a ceremony by Dulwich Village or near the familiar paths of Dulwich Park. It carries the quiet assurance of work created by an experienced local florist, accustomed to helping families express love, loss, and remembrance through flowers that are both beautiful to look at and comforting to imagine.
SPECIAL CUSTOM TRIBUTE
£205.00
A meticulously arranged floral name tribute spells out 'KATE' in substantial, freestanding letters, each letter built from scores of tiny, snow-white chrysanthemums pressed closely together to form a seamless, pillow-soft surface. The inner contours of every character are gently highlighted with a pale pink satin ribbon, adding a soft blush that frames each letter's shape with delicate precision. Vivid hot-pink roses punctuate the design as focal accents: two gracefully opened roses adorn the left limb of the 'K', a single striking rose nestles within the lower section of the 'A', the 'T' bears a solitary bright rose at its base, and the 'E' is brightened by two clustered roses along its right side. Interspersed among the roses are small pale-pink alstroemeria buds, variegated foliage, ruscus and fern-like fronds that give the composition a garden-fresh richness and subtle contrast to the white chrysanthemum foundation. Placed on a clean white backdrop that throws soft shadows and emphasizes the letters' three-dimensionality, the piece conveys both visual clarity and tender emotion; the pinks glow against the white like a compassionate embrace. There is a gentle scent of rose and a soft, tactile density to the chrysanthemums that speaks to careful florist technique. As a local Dulwich florist piece, this tribute would be entirely at home at a chapel service near Lordship Lane or a quiet commemorative gathering in East Dulwich; Flowers Dulwich prepares arrangements like this for sympathetic, personalised memorials and celebrations of life throughout the area.
ELEGANT CUSTOM TRIBUTE
£200.00
Rendered in soft, tactile layers, this bespoke BETTY name tribute is composed as a horizontal memorial display, each capital letter built from dense clusters of cool-white chrysanthemums that form a serene, cushion-like field. The white heads offer a quiet, almost velvety canvas, while contrasting bands and interior fills of vibrant purple-magenta chrysanthemums carve the letters' shapes with lively, jewel-toned definition. A subtle purple fabric or satin ribbon trims the outer edges, adding a measured elegance and a gentle contour that invites the eye to follow each letter's outline. At three focal points - the rounded loop of the B, the top of the first T, and the top right of the Y - delicate miniature bouquets sit like tender tokens: pale pink roses in varied bloom stages, tiny bright-blue accent flowers that could be cornflowers or delphinium, and sprigs of feathery fern and green leaves. The roses lend a soft, familiar fragrance that mingles with the clean, green scent of foliage; the blue accents bring a cool contrast that steadies the palette. Photographed against a plain white field, the tribute reads with clarity and composure, a piece designed to honour intimate memories. As a local florist might place at a chapel near Lordship Lane or lay at a graveside in Dulwich Park, this personalised floral name arrangement balances traditional sympathy symbolism with careful floral craftsmanship, offering comfort through colour, texture, and the quiet geometry of letters formed in bloom.
MIXED FLOWERS CUSTOM TRIBUTE
£240.00
A lovingly assembled floral name tribute presents the letters "JENNA" in bold, three-dimensional capitals against a pristine white background, each letter formed from a dense carpet of small, creamy-white chrysanthemums or similar delicate florets. The soft, pillowy surfaces of the letters are edged with a slender band of vivid purple or lilac ribbon, a thoughtful detail that brings structure and a subtle, consoling colour to the overall composition. Thoughtfully placed accent posies soften the geometry: clusters of blush-pink and lavender spray roses, with occasional cream or pale-yellow roses, nestle into the upper curve of the 'J', the lower centre of the first 'N', and the upper right of the 'A'. These mini bouquets are threaded with bright green fern fronds, their lacy texture creating a gentle contrast to the dense white petals. Thin, dark connecting rods run horizontally to keep the letters unified and stable, indicating this piece is meant to be displayed upright at a chapel or funeral venue. The white backdrop and soft, diffuse light emphasise purity and calm, and the overall effect is one of quiet reverence. As a florist serving Dulwich Village, East Dulwich and the surrounding streets near the Dulwich Picture Gallery, I imagine this tribute arriving at a memorial service on College Road or being placed near a family memorial table; Flowers Dulwich can craft a similar bespoke name tribute with care and local delivery arranged sensitively to meet funeral timings.
CUSTOM JENNA TRIBUTE
£240.00
Standing under soft studio light, this bespoke floral tribute from Flowers Dulwich arranges the letters H, E, a heart motif, and U in a single, elegant line against a brilliant white backdrop, each character shaped with care and floral precision. The H, E and U are formed of compact white chrysanthemums whose tiny, snowy petals create a plush, cloud-like surface; each letter is edged with a pale blush satin ribbon whose ruffled finish reads as a tender frame. Rich fuchsia roses are placed as vivid focal points - a cluster at the lower left of the H, a trio along the middle arm of the E, and a small twin accent in the inner curve of the U - their velvety petals contrasting with deep green, fern-like foliage and little reddish berries that add texture and a hint of autumnal sparkle. The central heart is intentionally softer in tone: a lush mix of soft pink carnations, delicate blush lisianthus (eustoma) and small cream or pale pink spray roses, stitched together with pale green eucalyptus leaves that offer both visual lift and a faint citrusy fragrance. The same blush ribbon trims the heart, bringing continuity across the tribute. This composition feels intimate, a refined balance of purity and affection - appropriate for a remembrance service in Dulwich Village, a quiet memorial at Dulwich Park, or as a heartfelt expression delivered to a family home near Lordship Lane. The arrangement demonstrates careful floristry technique, balanced colour contrast and a gentle emotional resonance.
WE LOVE YOU TRIBUTE
£250.00
This arranged tribute, carefully shaped to spell "MAM" in three capital letters, is a quiet, intimate expression of affection and memory, made from a dense carpet of tiny white chrysanthemum sprays that read as soft and cloudlike at a glance. Each letter is framed with a bright, sunny yellow pleated ribbon that traces the perimeter like a sunlit halo, the ribbon's fine pleats catching the light and giving the whole piece a neat, finished edge. The first and last letter are gently balanced with small clustered accents: each cluster centres on a tightly furled yellow rosebud, its petals warm and velvety, surrounded by delicate white freesia or similar white buds and sprigs of deep green foliage and slender fern fronds that lift the composition with fresh texture. A discreet dark-green support bar sits behind the upper edges, holding the letters together and indicating a freestanding construction suited to funeral chapels or cemetery displays. Set against a pristine white background under soft studio lighting, the contrast of white, yellow and green reads both pure and comforting; the white chrysanthemums suggest peace and the yellow touches recall sunlit afternoons and laughter shared. As a florist who has prepared tributes for families across Dulwich Village and along Lordship Lane, I see this arrangement as both dignified and personal-an emblem of enduring love for a mother or maternal figure. The craftsmanship is quiet but exact: the flowers are closely placed for a seamless surface, the ribbons smoothed to a crisp edge, and the accents positioned to invite a close, tender look from mourners gathering to remember a life.
TREASURED NAN TRIBUTE
£155.00
A carefully crafted sympathy tribute spells NANA in solid, three-dimensional letters arranged against a stark white backdrop. Each character is formed from a dense field of small white chrysanthemums - button-style blooms with layered, papery petals that create a plush, tactile surface. Viewed from above, the letters read as sculpted cushions of white, the individual florets packed so closely they become a single, serene plane of colour. Around each letter a neat band of bright green foliage traces the contours, acting like a living ribbon that sharpens the silhouette and introduces a fresh, hopeful accent. The photograph's bright, even light emphasizes the three-dimensional quality and the freshness of the stems, while the subtle shadowing at the base of each letter reinforces the arrangement's solidity. The scent is quiet and floral - that faint chrysanthemum earthiness that brings a calm, reflective mood to a memorial setting. As a local Dulwich florist I picture this piece standing in a chapel near Dulwich Village or placed at a service on College Road; Flowers Dulwich can prepare this tribute for a funeral, visitation, or graveside, offering careful placement and same-day consideration across East and West Dulwich. The composition reads as dignified and tender, a clear and heartfelt way to honour a grandmother whose name and memory are carried forward with dignity and love.
WHITE NANA TRIBUTE
£200.00
The word NANA is lovingly rendered as a three-dimensional floral statement, each letter a small, hand-built pillow of chrysanthemums set against pure white. The two N letters glow with deep magenta-purple chrysanthemum heads, their tight petals and tiny yellow centres creating a sumptuous, tactile surface. The two A letters answer them in serene cream-white chrysanthemums, arranged so the pale petals ripple like soft waves against the deeper tone. Every letter is framed with a lively lime-green trim-either satin ribbon pleating or closely clipped foliage-that crisply separates each letter from the white background and adds a hint of spring freshness. Under gentle morning light the petals show subtle tonal shifts and the ribbon catches a soft sheen; there is the delicate, slightly herbal scent of fresh chrysanthemums and green stems that lends the piece a calm, consoling presence. Designed for funerals, memorial services, or a graveside farewell in and around Dulwich-whether near College Road, East Dulwich, or the quiet lanes by Dulwich Park-this arrangement reads as a personal, name-focused tribute for a beloved grandmother. Prepared with meticulous wiring and flower placement to ensure clarity and longevity, it is suitable for transportation to chapels on Lordship Lane or a family home viewing. Flowers Dulwich can craft and deliver this commission with care, offering same-day attention across the Dulwich area when seasonal stock allows, so the finished tribute arrives fresh and composed for the service.
PURPLE & WHITE NANA TRIBUTE
£200.00
Rendered in graceful, monumental letters, AUNT appears here as an intimate field of white chrysanthemums, each bloom tightly set so that the letters read as a single, plush surface. The chrysanthemums are small and layered, their petals ruffled like downy sails and occasionally revealing pale yellow centres that warm the overall white. Around the perimeter of every letter a deep purple satin ribbon has been carefully pleated and affixed, forming a scalloped outline that provides contrast and an elegant frame; the ribbon's satin sheen catches the light in places, giving a soft highlight against the matte petals. The composition is photographed on a bright white backing so the letters read with clarity, while subtle grey shadows beneath hint at their volume and the sturdy frames that hold them. As a florist one thinks of how such a piece sits within a service or placed near a favourite bench in Dulwich Park - an emblem of memory and gratitude rather than mere decoration. The mood is quietly celebratory: white for purity and sympathy, purple for thoughtfulness and respect. The tactile details - the plush density of the chrysanthemums, the gentle rustle of the ribbon, and the cool, clean scent that fresh chrysanthemums often carry - are all present in the image. This is a considered, personalised memorial tribute intended to honour an aunt with grace and steadiness, reflecting both craft and compassion.
SPECIAL AUNT SENTIMENT TRIBUTE
£200.00
A tender, overhead composition spells DAD in three bold, floral letters, presented against a bright white backdrop so every detail reads with clarity. Each character is densely packed with a harmonious mix of large white Gerbera daisies-their dark centres giving a solemn, grounded focal point-alongside delicate white roses, soft lisianthus and full, cushiony carnations that together create a layered, textural surface. Accents of soft lavender and mauve roses, ruffled carnations and tiny clusters of deeper purple filler flowers are woven throughout the letters, adding a restrained warmth that suggests reverence and gentle memory. Lush, feathery fern fronds outline each letter, their verdant sweep framing the soft petals and lending a natural, flowing border; small green button chrysanthemums are dotted within to lift the palette with fresh pops of green and compact form. Where the floristry foam and dark structural base peeks through, the contrast underscores the careful craftsmanship and gives each letter defined shape. The scent is quietly floral-white roses and fresh greenery-evoking the calm atmosphere of a memorial service. As a local florist at Flowers Dulwich who knows families around Lordship Lane and East Dulwich, I arrange pieces like this with attention to how they will rest on a casket or easel, offering a meaningful, personalised tribute. The overall impression is one of composed dignity and heartfelt love, a tangible expression for those honouring a beloved father.
FINEST TRIBUTE
£210.00
Seen head-on against immaculate white, four letter panels form the word 'BEST', each lovingly sculpted from a garden's worth of flowers and greenery. The palette is bright but composed: crisp white chrysanthemum-like blooms and ivory gerbera create a calm, pure foundation; golden yellow roses and gerberas bring a warm, uplifting heartbeat; delicate mauve and deep purple lisianthus thread through the letters for a soft, contemplative contrast; and lively magenta-pink spray roses or small carnations provide intimate flecks of colour. Dark green fern fronds cradle and define every contour, their feathered texture easing the geometric lines into something human and tender. A subtle metal or painted framework peeks through in places, most clearly along the horizontal bar of the E and T, revealing the careful engineering beneath the floristry. The lighting is even and bright, so each petal reads with fresh clarity and the tiny pale-green filler blooms add a whisper of depth. The overall feeling is one of composed dignity and gentle warmth, a tribute that radiates both solace and quiet celebration of life. As a local Dulwich florist might note, this style of letter tribute is frequently chosen for services around Dulwich Park or memorials near East Dulwich, where friends and family gather to remember someone cherished. The arrangement speaks plainly and beautifully: a crafted expression of honour, memory and love.
BEST TRIBUTE
£210.00
A custom funeral tribute spells 'PAPA' in bold, capital letters, each character formed from dense clusters of small white chrysanthemums that build a voluminous, pillowed surface across every stroke. The chrysanthemums here are chosen for their ruffled, almost rosette-like heads and cool, creamy-white tones that read as purity in the restrained palette. Around each letter, a folded strip of pale green ribbon or a rim of finely clipped foliage creates a wavy, framed edge, the soft lime-green acting as a fresh counterpoint to the white blooms and defining the letter shapes with precision. The arrangement rests against a clean white backdrop, the soft studio lighting revealing the sculpted curves of the petals and the faint shadows that give depth to the letters, while a subdued, powdery scent lingers when the piece is approached. The craftsmanship is meticulous: blooms set tightly to present an unbroken face, stems hidden beneath a neat underlay, and ribbon tucked and pleated to follow each contour-details a seasoned Dulwich florist knows to refine for a dignified presentation. Intended as a sympathy or memorial piece for a cherished father figure, the composition conveys respect, quiet love, and remembrance; the word 'PAPA' reads as intimate and personal, suited to a family-led service at Dulwich Park chapel or a viewing in East Dulwich. Flowers Dulwich can recreate this design for local delivery, providing a calm, carefully made expression of condolence that complements a service or graveside tribute in the neighbourhood.
WHITE PAPA TRIBUTE
£200.00
This image shows a carefully designed funeral flower tribute spelling out "GRANDPA" in large, freestanding letters, set against a clean white background that emphasises every petal and contour. Each uppercase letter is constructed from a thick covering of white chrysanthemums, their small, rounded blooms arranged so closely together that they form a continuous, velvety surface. The flowers' faint cream and yellow centres add a whisper of warmth within the otherwise snowy expanse. Around the edge of each letter runs a narrow band of soft lavender or light purple blossoms, drawing a graceful outline around the "G", "R", "A", "N", "D", "P", and final "A". This cool purple edging gently separates the letters from the background, giving them a quiet, dignified presence reminiscent of a peaceful walk through the leafy streets of Dulwich Village.   

Soft accents of peach roses and greenery add personality and emotion to the piece. On the opening "G", a small spray of three or four peach roses, mixed with slender white lily buds and glossy green foliage, rests delicately against the chrysanthemum base, suggesting the tender touch of family hands. The first "A" is embellished with a single peach rose and fresh leaves, offering a focused moment of colour. The central "D" repeats the clustered effect with two or three peach roses and foliage, visually linking back to the "G" and anchoring the design. The final "A" again carries a single peach rose and greenery, creating a gentle rhythm of warm tones across the tribute. Beneath the letters, a discreet dark framework or bar provides structural support, making the arrangement suitable for display at a church in Dulwich or a nearby crematorium. The result is a calm, eloquent floral expression of remembrance for a cherished grandfather, crafted with care by experienced local florists.
ADMIRED GRANDPA TRIBUTE
£330.00
A tender, hand-crafted pair of floral initials spells out B and A in a solemn, freestanding memorial display, each letter densely cloaked in small, immaculate white chrysanthemums to create a soft, clouded surface that evokes quiet reverence. The contours of both letters are neatly edged with royal blue satin ribbon, its deep tone providing a crisp, respectful frame against the pure white blooms. A lush cluster decorates the upper left curve of the B and a mirrored cluster rests at the lower right of the A; each features rich, velvety deep-red roses at varying stages of bloom, contrasted with spiky, electric-blue delphinium-like flowers that add height and a cool contrast. Dark green leaves and light, trailing green foliage weave through these accents, softening edges and lending an organic, slightly cascading silhouette. Mounted on a low, dark green rectangular stand, the two letters read as a unified tribute, the subtle base keeping the composition grounded without distracting from the floral detail. The overall mood is one of quiet strength and personal memory - a design often requested for memorials near Dulwich Village or for services at local churches and chapels on Lordship Lane. As a Dulwich florist, I find these initials speak directly to families seeking a dignified, personalised farewell; Flowers Dulwich typically sources chrysanthemums for their longevity and texture, pairing them with seasonal foliage for a composed finish that honours the life being remembered.
BA PERSONALISED TRIBUTE
£100.00
This photograph shows a beautifully composed floral name tribute that spells "GRANDMA" in large, three-dimensional letters, thoughtfully created as a funeral or memorial arrangement. Each letter is built on a sturdy, dark green frame and completely blanketed with delicate white cushion chrysanthemums, or a similar small-headed bloom, fitted so closely together that they form an unbroken carpet of petals. The white flowers give the whole tribute a pure, serene quality, as if it were gently lit by soft chapel light. Just beyond the edge of each letter runs a fine line of pale lavender or lilac ribbon, which subtly outlines the shapes and adds a hint of gentle colour, reminiscent of the pastel tones often seen in gardens around Dulwich. Carefully placed red accents punctuate the design. In the 'G', a cluster of deep red roses is nestled near the lower curve, accompanied by a distinctive red-and-white variegated calla lily, its fluted form adding a graceful twist. The first 'A' features a single red anthurium bloom at its base, the smooth, heart-shaped spathe catching the eye against the white chrysanthemums. In the centre, the 'M' is adorned with another grouping of rich red roses and a second red anthurium, while the final 'A' holds one more anthurium, drawing the eye to the end of the name. The tribute feels both dignified and deeply personal, a floral farewell that could be placed at a Dulwich church service or graveside, expressing gratitude and love for a much-loved grandmother who may have lived along Lordship Lane or near Dulwich Village.
