AUTUMN FLOWERS
Set against a clean white backdrop, this rounded hand-tied bouquet looks as if it has just been finished by a skilled Old Ford florist, every stem thoughtfully placed. Dominating the composition are large hot pink roses, fully open and velvety, their layered petals forming sumptuous whorls of colour that immediately draw the eye. Around them, lime green spider chrysanthemums stretch out in fine, spidery filaments, the chartreuse tones bringing an energetic, almost zesty brightness to the design. Deep indigo and royal purple lisianthus blooms, some tightly budded and others unfurled into delicate, bell-like flowers, add depth and a quietly luxurious feel, reminiscent of evening shadows over the streets around Old Ford Road. Scattered through the bouquet, sunny yellow gerbera-style daisies beam with cheerful warmth, evoking weekend strolls to nearby markets and gatherings with friends. A single cream-to-pale-yellow rose bud peeks through the brighter flowers, its tightly wrapped petals creating a gentle contrast and hinting at new beginnings. Fine clusters of soft lavender or blush-toned filler flowers, along with slim, upward-reaching green and white buds, bring a natural, garden-like looseness, as though freshly gathered from a well-tended East London plot. The flowers rest in a cradle of lush foliage: broad, smooth dark leaves, airy fern fronds, and eucalyptus-style stems that lend both structure and a feeling of freshness. The bouquet radiates joy, gratitude, and celebration, perfect for marking birthdays, promotions, new homes, or simply sending a colourful surprise with local delivery across Old Ford and the surrounding neighbourhoods.

MESMERIZING HARMONY
£49.00
Against a crisp white backdrop, a mixed bouquet of richly coloured flowers is presented head-on, revealing every nuance of the blooms as if they were freshly arranged in an Old Ford Florist studio. The arrangement is round and full, a carefully balanced dome where warm and cool tones play off each other. Central to the bouquet are several open roses, their petals unfolding from a sunny golden yellow heart into more intense orange shades, with soft touches of red at the very edges, evoking both comfort and excitement. Around them, numerous white daisy-like chrysanthemums lend lightness and clarity, their clean petals encircling vivid lime-green centres that sparkle like tiny beacons. Nestled thoughtfully among these are clusters of smaller magenta and fuchsia chrysanthemums, with tightly packed petals forming cushioned spheres of colour, each one finished with a yellow-green centre that subtly echoes the daisies. Dark, glossy foliage emerges between the blossoms, adding depth and contrast, much like the greenery you might glimpse around Victoria Park or the towpaths of nearby Hackney Wick. The bouquet's stems are visible at the bottom, neatly tied and sharply cut, hinting at cool dampness and ensuring the viewer can almost sense the freshness. No vase or wrapping distracts from the natural beauty of the flowers; the focus is entirely on their structure, colour, and interplay. The feeling is one of thoughtful joy and refined celebration, perfect for brightening a flat near Roman Road Market, sending congratulations on a new baby in Bow, or offering a heartfelt thank-you to someone whose day you'd like to transform with colour and fragrance.
BERRY BURST
£43.00
Arranging this bouquet in Old Ford's gentle morning light, I am drawn to the way blush-toned gerberas and delicate pink roses interact-a dance of colour much like the interplay of sun and shadow along the Regent's Canal. The soft hues of pink blend seamlessly, washed lightly across the petals like a watercolour memory, while bold spikes of deep purple statice add a pleasing punctuation and energy. Each leaf is vibrant with dewy freshness, its cooling green base calming and grounding the expressive blooms that reach overhead. Framed by an understated glass vase, the overall impression is both airy and abundant-akin to a spring morning's optimism drifting through open windows. These flowers invite you in, their dewdrop freshness and radiant tones promising comfort and cheer. Whether intended as a luminous get-well gesture or a graceful accent for a living room near Old Ford Road, this arrangement embodies skilled craftsmanship and the joy of giving something truly beautiful, crafted for neighbours by someone who knows the neighbourhood's unique charm.

CRAZY IN LOVE
CRAZY IN LOVE
£69.00
Captured against a bright white background, this round, hand-tied bouquet radiates softness and romance, as if freshly prepared in a local Old Ford workshop before heading out for same-day delivery. The eye is first drawn to the creamy white and ivory roses, fully open with generous, spiralling petals that form luxurious cups of colour at the centre of the design. Nestled around them are clusters of small pink spray roses, some just beginning to unfurl, others more open, lending a charming, garden-like feel and subtle variations of blush and rose-pink. A few vibrant pink gerbera daisies punctuate the arrangement, their broad, flat petals framing dark central disks that anchor the palette and introduce a modern, upbeat note. Soft, ruffled carnations in a light, powdery pink tone add volume and a comforting, textured layer reminiscent of traditional East London cottage gardens. Between these main blooms sit slim-petalled white alstroemeria, their inner petals delicately streaked and speckled in fine reddish-brown, which adds an intricate, almost painterly detail. Sprays of white baby's breath weave through the bouquet like a mist, creating a sense of air and movement so the flowers appear to float together rather than simply sit side by side. Touches of fresh green foliage and neatly aligned stems at the base ground the pastel colours and emphasise the florist's careful craftsmanship. The bouquet feels perfect for celebrating a new baby in one of the modern flats overlooking the Hertford Union Canal, sending gentle sympathy, or simply brightening a friend's home off Old Ford Road with a heartfelt, timeless gift of fresh flowers.
AMALFI LOVE
£59.00
A generous, rounded bouquet fills the frame against a pure white backdrop, its colours so vivid they seem to glow, like a burst of sunshine on a clear day in Old Ford. Dominating the arrangement are joyful yellow tones: classic yellow roses, perfectly shaped with softly spiralling petals, sit alongside plump chrysanthemums and smaller daisy-like flowers that spread their brightness through every corner of the design. Threaded between these are striking orange gerbera daisies, their wide, flat petals and contrasting centres creating a playful, modern feel reminiscent of vibrant market flowers along nearby Roman Road. Deep purple lisianthus weave gently through the warm palette, their layered, satin-like petals curling inwards as if caught in a gentle breeze, while occasional lilac buds and creamy white accents bring subtle lightness and balance. Popping out from the warm hues are lime-green button chrysanthemums, their rounded, textured forms adding a crisp, almost zesty freshness that echoes the greenery of Victoria Park. Scattered throughout, clusters of shiny red hypericum berries lend a festive, almost berry-wreath quality, suggesting celebration, gratitude, or an important life moment like an anniversary or promotion. The bouquet is cushioned on a base of glossy, dark green foliage, probably Ruscus and similar leaves, with fine, spiky blades of ornamental grass rising up to give the design movement and height. Each stem appears carefully positioned yet relaxed, creating a sense of effortless abundance that feels both polished and natural. Tied securely at the base, this hand-tied bouquet looks ready for same-day delivery across Old Ford, bringing a wave of colour and happiness to a kitchen table, office desk, or cosy living room.
TROPICAL SENSATION
£59.00
This sophisticated bouquet, carefully composed by Old Ford Florist near the vibrant Mile End and Hackney Wick, embodies a harmonious symphony of colour and texture against a pristine white canvas. The arrangement's heart is formed by grand hydrangea heads, awash in gradients of deep indigo, peacock teal, and subtle purple, their multi-faceted petals reminiscent of the lush gardens lining Regent's Canal. Nestling in between, roses unfold in soft lavender-soothing and fragrant-as well as timeless creamy white, their layers unfurling with quiet elegance. The bouquet's textural richness is amplified by plump white ranunculus, giving the composition a plush, almost tactile feel. Slender shoots of pale yellow lisianthus peek through, their buds and half-open blooms inviting a fresh zest. Among the star blooms, smaller accents of fuchsia-pink flowers twine gracefully, adding bursts of lively colour, while wispy pale pink astilbe softens the outlines, making the ensemble feel light and romantic. Delicate clusters of lacy green and white filler blossoms provide a gentle, intricate foundation. A medley of dark, glossy foliage frames and elevates the arrangement's colours. Bound at the base, the stems are neatly finished with a luxurious royal purple satin ribbon, a final artistic flourish that harmonizes beautifully with the bouquet's cool palette. Imbued with sentiments of joy, love, and grace, this bouquet is ideal for marking milestones or lending elegance to a cherished celebration in the heart of Old Ford.
TIMELESS VICTORIAN
£57.00
A generously rounded floral arrangement in an elegant square glass vase glows with the soft light of yellow, green, and white tones, evoking the first warm days of spring in Old Ford. At the centre, golden yellow roses open in layered spirals, their petals rich and velvety, while smaller rose buds and sprays of miniature yellow blooms tuck into the gaps, building depth and a sense of abundance. Nestled among them are smooth, cushion-like white pompom chrysanthemums, their densely packed petals creating a calm, clouded texture that balances the brighter hues. Lime green button chrysanthemums punctuate the design with tiny globe-shaped bursts, and larger pale-green ruffled blooms, similar to carnations or decorative green mums, soften the overall silhouette. Surrounding and supporting the flowers is an array of foliage: broad, variegated leaves edged in creamy white, slender dark-green stems, and fine filler greenery that give movement and a natural garden feel, like something freshly gathered from a local park walk near Victoria Park. Sprinkled between the main flowers are delicate white filler blossoms that look like little stars, adding lightness and intricacy when viewed up close. The clear, low vase showcases the neatly arranged stems and is wrapped at its waist with a rustic, bark-like band, neatly finished with a bright lime green ribbon tied horizontally around it. The clean white backdrop lets every shade and texture be clearly visible, highlighting the expert craftsmanship of a local Old Ford florist. This bouquet conveys optimism and gentle celebration, perfectly suited for a birthday, housewarming, or a thoughtful "thinking of you" delivery within the neighbourhood.

A generously filled bouquet in glowing shades of orange, yellow, and soft peach is shown against a crisp white backdrop, every flower sharply in focus as if freshly arranged on a florist's bench in Old Ford. At the heart of the display, plump orange roses mingle with sunny yellow roses, some petals washed with a gentle gradient from apricot at the tips to butter-yellow at the center, evoking the mellow light that spills over the Regent's Canal on a clear evening. Nestled between the roses, peach and pale orange alstroemeria unfurl in star-shaped clusters, their inner petals finely striped and dotted in reddish tones, giving a sense of delicacy and movement. Punctuating the softness are numerous small, round, bright orange accent blooms that resemble spiky thistles or safflower heads, adding a striking, textured element that draws the eye in from different angles. Eucalyptus leaves in muted silvery-green arc gracefully outwards, joined by darker glossy foliage that fills the arrangement and deepens the contrast, so the warm colours seem to glow even more intensely. All of this is carefully gathered into a clear square glass vase, its transparent sides revealing the straight, clean stems and clear water within, suggesting freshness and expert conditioning. A band of natural, beige burlap or jute is wrapped around the vase's centre, giving a tactile, handcrafted touch that would suit a kitchen table near Old Ford Road or a living room overlooking Mile End Park. In the bottom right corner, a round orange badge with bold white lettering states "VASE INCLUDED," indicating that this bright, uplifting bouquet arrives as a complete, ready-to-place floral gift for birthdays, thank you gestures, or everyday joy.

Bursting with the brilliance of freshly gathered Gerbera daisies, this bouquet abounds with joyful spirit, reflecting the lively energy of Old Ford's community. Large, velvety-petaled daisies in shades of golden yellow, burnished orange, and lush magenta come together in a carefully hand-tied cluster, each blossom's dark, espresso-hued center lending dramatic contrast. Arranged with sprigs of tactile, verdant foliage, the bouquet sits gracefully in a clear glass vase filled with pristine water, capturing that sense of renewal found along the Regent's Canal on an early spring morning. The wrapping-a rustic yet refined combination of natural kraft paper and glossy, transparent cellophane-suggests a gift gathered with affection from a favourite florist near Bow. A piece of textured twine wraps softly around the bouquet's base, from which a small tag dangles, bearing a rose emblem that calls to mind Old Ford's rich tradition of artisan craft. In the gentle local sunlight, each hue is amplified, illuminating the vase atop a fresh white table. This composition is thoughtfully arranged to convey warmth and congratulations, the sort of bouquet perfect for a milestone, get-well wish, or to lift the spirits in any East End home. The sensory interplay-petal softness, breezy scent, gentle light-embodies not just a bouquet, but a memory of Old Ford's vibrant floral heritage.
SUNNY GARDEN
£49.00
Set against a pure white background, this hand-tied bouquet appears almost to float, its colours alive and luminous. At the heart, three impressive sunflowers dominate the composition, their dark, textured centres ringed with layers of bold yellow petals that suggest warmth, abundance, and the relaxed ease of a summer afternoon by the Hertford Union Canal in Old Ford. Between these confident faces, clusters of creamy white roses introduce a more classical note; their petals are densely packed in smooth spirals, some blooms fully open while others remain partially closed, hinting at gentle movement and growth. Scattered playfully throughout are tiny white daisy-like flowers, likely chamomile or feverfew, each with a soft yellow centre that echoes the sunflower tones on a smaller, more delicate scale, adding a sense of lightness and informal charm. Surrounding and supporting these central flowers, wisps of bright lime-green foliage, similar to solidago or another airy filler, create a cloud of feathery texture, filling the spaces without overwhelming the main blooms. This greenery adds depth and a subtle sense of motion, as though the bouquet had just been gathered from a breezy field edging Old Ford Road. Below, the natural stems are carefully aligned and bound with a simple lime-green ribbon, tied firmly yet with a relaxed drape that preserves the natural, rustic-chic feeling. The overall arrangement feels joyful and uplifting, ideal for marking a milestone, brightening a new flat near Roman Road, or sending a heartfelt message of encouragement with flowers that balance country freshness and quiet elegance.
JOYFUL SUNRISE
£69.00
In the heart of Old Ford, this exuberant arrangement glows with the hues of a golden afternoon near Regent's Canal. Majestic sunflowers claim centre stage, their rich brown centres contrasting dramatically with luminous, wide-open petals reminiscent of sunflower fields at the edge of the city. Around these, sumptuous yellow garden roses spiral elegantly-petals layered with a craftsman's precision, soft as velvet to the touch. Spattered among the blooms, bright red Hypericum berries offer a trail of playful colour, gleaming like festive market stalls along Roman Road. The design is gently framed by a tumbling array of verdant foliage: wafting fern fronds drift outward, adding gentle motion and echoing the leafy lanes of Old Ford, while hints of goldenrod and eucalyptus amplify the bouquet's depth and texture. The clear, fishbowl-like vase allows the eye to travel down through clean, water-cooled stems, reinforcing the fresh-picked vitality so prized by locals. The whole ensemble emits a subtle fragrance that whispers of gardens after a summer rain-a scent inviting enough to recall walks along Old Ford Lock. Whether presented as a heartfelt gift for a friend in neighbouring Bow or a centrepiece to mark family gatherings, this arrangement carries the warmth and togetherness that define the community. Each element is chosen by florists who know the neighbourhood well, crafting beauty meant to uplift and inspire, just as Old Ford itself does each day.
SUNNY FIELDS
£70.00
A generous hand-tied bouquet of roses fills the frame from edge to edge, set against a bright white backdrop that makes every colour glow. The design is densely packed, forming a rounded dome where no single rose dominates, but instead a harmonious chorus of hues appears, like a festive gathering after market day near Roman Road in Old Ford. Deep red and burgundy roses provide the romantic heart of the composition, their petals velvety and layered, while vivid orange and warm coral blooms add a lively, almost sunset-like energy. Scattered among them, bright yellow roses bring a carefree note of friendship and optimism, and soft blush pinks mingle with bolder fuchsia and magenta tones to suggest affection and joy. Cream and ivory roses are placed thoughtfully throughout, their quieter tones giving the eye somewhere to rest. Each flower head is at a slightly different stage of opening, from tight buds hinting at future beauty to fully expanded blossoms revealing intricate spirals at the centre. Dark green leaves nestle between the roses and gather around the base, providing a rich natural frame. Beneath the vibrant crown of flowers, the straight green stems are tightly bound with a cheerful green and white checked ribbon, the gingham pattern adding a touch of rustic charm, as if the bouquet had just been wrapped by a local Old Ford florist for a doorstep delivery. The lighting is clear and gentle, without harsh shadows, highlighting the smoothness of the petals and suggesting the soft, classic scent that rises from a freshly arranged rose bouquet perfect for milestones, thank-yous, or just-because moments across East London.

A lush, rounded bouquet of mixed flowers is presented in a minimalist white cube-shaped box, photographed cleanly against a white backdrop so that every colour and texture stands out, much like a well-tended front garden along the streets of Old Ford. The arrangement is densely composed, with no gaps between the blooms, creating the impression of a soft, flowering cushion. Abundant yellow chrysanthemums dominate the top, their many fine petals layered into generous, sunny domes. Nestled among them are clusters of small yellow spray roses, some tightly closed and others beginning to open, giving a sense of movement and unfolding life. Bright white daisy chrysanthemums with clear green eyes weave through the yellow, their simple petal shapes adding a touch of innocence, while larger, fluffier white mums contribute a cool, cloudlike lightness. Interspersed at varying heights are rich magenta and fuchsia chrysanthemums, some blending into softer pink tones at the edges, lending an energetic pop of colour without disturbing the harmony.

In this image, a contemporary black hatbox brims with golden yellow roses and burgundy leucadendron, creating a compact, dome-shaped bouquet that feels both joyful and sophisticated. The roses are the heart of the design, clustered closely together so their velvety petals touch and overlap, forming a rich, textured surface that almost glows against the neutral white background. Their colour sits somewhere between soft buttercup and warm amber, reminiscent of late-afternoon sun over the canals near Old Ford. Threaded between these blooms are vertical accents of Leucadendron 'Safari Sunset', their slim, tapered bracts deepening from mossy green at the base to a burnished wine-red at the tips, adding height, contrast, and a slightly wild, botanical edge. Broad, polished leaves in deep forest green create a rounded collar at the base, while airy, needle-fine or ferny foliage emerges in light, wispy touches, softening the transition from flowers to hatbox. A fine band of white lace sits neatly around the upper rim of the box, delicate and slightly translucent, giving a gentle nod to vintage hat shops while the matte black container keeps the look firmly modern. The entire arrangement is photographed in bright, even light, so every petal and leaf is clearly defined, as though you could reach out and feel the softness of the roses and the smoothness of the bracts. It's the kind of design a local Old Ford resident might have delivered to a renovated warehouse loft or a cosy terrace home, perfect for marking an anniversary, welcoming a new baby, or simply bringing a beam of colour indoors. The composition speaks of calm confidence, skilled hands, and an understanding of how flowers can shift the mood of a room.

A full, rounded bouquet stands upright against a clean white backdrop, each stem bound neatly at the base, suggesting the careful craftsmanship of a local Old Ford florist. The flowers gather in a warm, autumnal embrace: deep golden and coppery-orange chrysanthemums with long, spiky petals form the backbone of the design, their layered, almost shaggy heads giving a sense of richness and depth. Tucked between these bold blooms, cream-white roses swirl open in classic, symmetrical spirals, their soft, velvety petals catching the light with a gentle sheen, like small, calm pauses within a lively conversation on Roman Road. Striking yellow-orange celosia blooms, known as cockscomb, curl in intricate, velvety ridges reminiscent of coral or carved velvet, adding an unexpected sculptural twist to the composition. Scattered throughout are clusters of delicate, daisy-like white flowers, each with a small yellow centre, recalling chamomile or matricaria, and lending the bouquet a breezy, garden-picked charm, as if gathered from a sunny patch near the green edges of Wennington Green. Surrounding and weaving through all of this colour is a generous halo of bright lime-green solidago and mixed foliage, with fine, feathery fronds and broader leafy greens providing both structure and a lively, natural frame. The lighting is bright and even, so every texture-from the frothy daisies to the plush celosia-is clearly defined. The bouquet's overall mood is warm, uplifting, and slightly rustic, perfect for celebrating an autumn anniversary, sending encouragement to a friend, or brightening a home or studio anywhere across Old Ford and the surrounding East London neighbourhoods.
COUNTRYSIDE BUNCH
£65.00
A lush cluster of bi-colour roses fills the frame, gathered into a rounded bouquet that seems to glow like a small sunrise against a clear white background. Each bloom is fully open yet still fresh, revealing whorls of velvety petals that transition from a bright, lemon-yellow centre into rich golden tones and finally to warm orange edges, touched here and there with a subtle red-orange flush. The roses are arranged tightly together, creating a full, domed shape that feels both abundant and refined, much like the carefully curated floral displays you might spot in a window along Roman Road near Old Ford. Deep green leaves peek between the blossoms, their polished surfaces catching the light and introducing cool, earthy notes that offset the intense warmth of the roses. Beneath the flower heads, a bundle of straight, sturdy stems is clearly visible, aligned with precision and suggesting a freshly prepared bouquet ready to be wrapped for delivery. The lighting is soft and even, with no harsh shadows, so every curve and ruffle of the petals is easy to imagine, from the smooth inner spirals to the gently undulating outer edges.
