BUDGET FLOWERS
A beautifully composed hand-tied bouquet is set against a clean, bright white background, the kind of light you might find streaming into a renovated flat in Old Ford on a calm afternoon. Dominating the centre are generous roses in soft peach, coral, and salmon hues, each bloom at a slightly different stage of opening, so you see both tight, promising buds and fully unfurled cups. Their petals display subtle colour transitions-from creamy, almost blush-toned edges to deeper, warm orange centres-that create a sense of depth and quiet luxury. Interlaced with the roses, Gerbera daisies in deep magenta and burgundy stand out with their vibrant, daisy-like profiles, their slender petals flaring outward around textured centres that sometimes reveal lighter inner rings, adding visual intrigue. Above and slightly to one side, a commanding King Protea captures the eye with its bold, architectural form: layered, pointed bracts in maroon and mauve-pink tones fold around an inner core, reminiscent of exotic blooms you might admire during a weekend walk from Old Ford toward the canals and Victoria Park. Threaded through the design, lime-green Santini button chrysanthemums cluster in neat, spherical forms, their bright chartreuse colour injecting a lively, almost effervescent energy. A luxuriant mixture of foliage surrounds the flowers, including broad, glossy leaves that anchor the arrangement, slender blades that arc for height and movement, and delicate eucalyptus sprays with rounded, silvery-green leaves that soften the overall silhouette and suggest a gentle botanical scent. The stems are carefully lined up and tied at the base, indicating a professional hand-tied bouquet freshly prepared for delivery across Old Ford and nearby Bow. Altogether, this arrangement feels warm, celebratory, and modern-ideal for birthdays, thank-you gestures, or congratulating someone on a new home near Roman Road Market.
RADIANT GEM
£50.00
A sophisticated white and green bouquet is shown against a seamless white backdrop, the kind of photograph that lets you almost feel the cool, fresh air around the flowers. The composition is tightly hand-tied, with velvety ivory roses taking centre stage, their petals opening in wide, spiralling layers that reveal a gentle cream glow at the heart. Interlaced with them are striking ornamental cabbages, their outer leaves a deeper, natural green, folding back to display ruffled rosettes of pale lime and yellow-green that lend the piece a contemporary, garden-to-vase feel. Between these statement blooms, clusters of dainty white spray chrysanthemums and tiny daisies add a playful lightness, each small flower with a softly tinted yellow or green centre that catches the eye without overpowering. Fine, star-like filler blooms, reminiscent of green-white astrantia, flicker through the bouquet like tiny fireworks, contributing texture and movement. Subtle touches of white alstroemeria, some with faint striping on their petals, weave quietly among the larger roses. The foliage is abundant yet carefully controlled, with deep and mid-green leaves building a rounded, lush silhouette that supports the pale blooms and makes the whites appear even cleaner. Stems are visible and neatly bound at the base, confirming this is a hand-tied design ideal for slipping into a glass vase on a kitchen table in Old Ford, perhaps after same-day delivery from a nearby florist. The mood is calm and reassuring, suitable for marking a new beginning, sending gentle condolences, or bringing understated elegance to a home overlooking the Regent's Canal.
AMAZON SANGRIA
£50.00
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.
AUTUMN SUNRISE
£70.00
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
Imagine the gentle morning light streaming across an Old Ford dining room, falling on a bouquet that encapsulates the area's eclectic yet inviting character. Delicate, fully blossomed peach-pink roses are cradled by peach-orange gerbera daisies, whose broad petals seem to capture the sunrise hues over the Regent's Canal. The arrangement is softened by generous sprays of white gypsophila, lending a dreamy softness and airy depth, while clusters of white chrysanthemums with vibrant green eyes create a sense of freshness reminiscent of Old Ford's nearby gardens. Eucalyptus greens are scattered thoughtfully throughout, their textures and scents a nod to natural parks like Mile End. The flowers are secure within the translucent embrace of a classic glass vase-water glinting amongst intertwining stems-while a rustic twine bow graces its neck, suspending a white, rectangular tag perfectly suited for a handwritten message. This bouquet is a touch of serenity delivered from Old Ford Florist, ideal for offering warmth and cheer on celebrations, as a thank-you, or just to add a little beauty to homes near Roman Road.
CANDY CRUSH
£55.00
In clear, natural light a lively bouquet of deep pink roses and poised white lilies stands in a simple clear glass vase, water glinting around trimmed green stems and emphasizing the bouquet's freshness. The roses are prominent and fully open, their velvety petals showing saturated fuchsia toward the centre and softer blush tones where each petal curls outward. Interwoven are tall white lily buds-some still closed, others just beginning to reveal trumpet-shaped petals and a hint of pollen-offering a rhythm of promise and bloom. Abundant green foliage, from broad, glossy leaves to slimmer, textured sprigs, surrounds the flowers and creates a verdant stage that makes the pinks and whites sing. Small darker burgundy or reddish-brown accent buds are scattered through the arrangement, providing contrast and a sense of depth that makes the bouquet feel tactile and layered.

This arrangement, crafted with local sensibility and care by Old Ford Florist, evokes a soft, floral perfume and a mood of quiet celebration-perfect for an anniversary, Mother's Day, or to lift a room near Roman Road Market or along the Hertford Union Canal. The tapered vase and visible stems convey honesty in design and freshness in handling; the composition sits comfortably in modern interiors and traditional homes alike. As a florist's photograph, it shows both artistry and practicality: a balanced dome shape, clear water, and trimmed stems that promise lasting enjoyment for anyone receiving a thoughtful delivery across Old Ford and surrounding streets.
CRUSH ON YOU
£65.00
Bathed in a soft morning glow, a thoughtfully designed bouquet rests in a clear, textured vase atop a white backdrop, evoking a sense of both joy and comfort characteristic of Old Ford's close-knit community. The bouquet's rounded silhouette features delicately unfurling lavender roses at its center, their soft hues and subtle scent reminiscent of springtime walks along the canal. Surrounding these are bright fuchsia pink gerbera daisies, their open faces and rich plum centers drawing the eye and bringing a burst of cheerful exuberance, similar to the lively energy on Roman Road. Clusters of smaller, velvety magenta chrysanthemum blossoms-some dotted with gentle green accents-add layers of richness and tactile interest. Interwoven throughout, clouds of white baby's breath lend the arrangement a weightless, cloudlike freshness, while deep green foliage provides a framing embrace and a sense of wild abundance. The vase's crackle glass design sparkles gently in the light, complemented by rustic raffia tied simply at the neck-a nod to Old Ford's love of artisan tradition. A plain white gift tag hangs from the ribbon, waiting for a personal message to mark birthdays, anniversaries, or special moments. This arrangement channels the emotion and artistry found in every bouquet crafted by local Old Ford florists, a perfect floral gift for bringing a heartfelt touch to any home or occasion in the neighbourhood.
DAY BRIGHTENER
£55.00
This hand-tied floral study, photographed on a pristine white field, reads like a short poem to autumn in colour and texture. Dominant, deep crimson gerbera daisies and velvety burgundy roses create a luxurious foundation - the gerberas' broad, flat petals around dark centres contrasting with the roses' layered, satin-like spirals. Interspersed among them, clusters of bright yellow spray chrysanthemums act as points of light, their compact, multi-petalled faces pushing the composition outward with cheerful rhythm. Softer coral-pink roses whisper between stronger tones, while slender alstroemeria in red-orange with fine markings add a lively, star-shaped punctuation. The foliage plays an essential supporting role: glossy, cool green leaves provide a stable backdrop, while paler, almost variegated greenery lifts and separates the blooms so each colour reads clearly. Autumnal identity is reinforced by several broad, reddish-brown leaves - their bronze edges and slight curl suggesting oak or maple gathered on a walk - which are placed to catch the eye and lend a rustic cadence. The bouquet's stems are neatly bound and lie exposed at the base, the green stalks forming a natural handle and confirming the hand-tied craft. Bathed in soft daylight, the bouquet suggests the scent of fresh cut stems and the quiet pleasure of seasonal giving; it's the kind of arrangement chosen for Thanksgiving tables, harvest displays, or to send a comforting, hopeful message from a nearby neighbourhood florist.
FESTIVAL OF COLOURS
£54.50
Captured against a plain white backdrop, this full, dome-shaped bouquet appears vibrant and carefully composed, as though just finished at Old Ford Florist before heading out for local delivery. Two luxurious deep red roses anchor the centre of the design, their petals tightly layered into perfect spirals, suggesting romance, care, and a touch of East London elegance. Encircling the roses are numerous white daisy-like chrysanthemums, their crisp petals fanning out from striking lime-green centres that inject a burst of energy and contemporary style. Threaded among them, light and mid-pink daisy chrysanthemums repeat the same bright green eyes, their softer hues adding warmth and a gentle, cheerful character that feels especially suited to celebrations or thank-you gestures. Along the outer edges and nestled in small pockets between the larger flowers, fine stems of pale pink waxflower create a mist of tiny star-shaped blossoms and buds, lending the bouquet an airy, almost whimsical texture. Rich green foliage-broad, glossy leaves combined with lighter, more delicate greens-cradles the blooms and gives the composition structure, echoing the greenery you might see walking past the canal paths or through nearby Mile End Park. The stems are trimmed evenly and bound tightly at the base, showing this is a hand-tied arrangement designed to be placed straight into a vase. The overall mood is joyful yet composed: passionate red, pure white, and soft pink working together with vibrant green to express love, appreciation, or gentle encouragement, perfect for delivery to homes and workplaces across Old Ford and the surrounding E3 neighbourhood.
FLORAL MELODY
£45.00
A sculpted dome of velvety red roses paired with clouds of frothy white baby's breath rests in a clear glass vase against a crisp white backdrop, each element rendered with careful attention to colour, texture, and form. There are approximately eighteen to twenty fully opened roses, their deep crimson petals unfurling in layered spirals that create a sense of depth and movement across the bouquet's surface. Between and beneath them, countless tiny Gypsophila paniculata blossoms nestle like soft snow, their airy sprays filling negative space and lending the arrangement an ethereal softness that tempers the roses' passionate intensity. The vase is transparent and neat, revealing long, green stems gathered and trimmed to show clean lines and natural freshness; the water's clarity underscores the florist's care. Lighting is even and bright, picking out the subtle sheen on each petal and the matte, cloud-like texture of the baby's breath so the whole composition appears luminous and poised. Tactile contrasts abound: plush, warm velvet of the roses against the delicate, papery quality of the gypsophila - a sensory pairing that invites both sight and smell. This design is distinctly classic but feels contemporary in its simplicity, suitable for heartfelt gestures from birthdays to proposals. Imagine this bouquet delivered with quiet care across Old Ford to a canal-side studio near Hertford Union Canal or presented on a dining table after a walk through nearby Roman Road Market, a perfectly judged emblem of affection and refinement.
FOREVER
£65.00
A reassuring, sunlit get-well arrangement photographed on a clean white backdrop, composed with the kind of attention a local Old Ford florist gives each order. The bouquet occupies the left-to-center foreground, arranged in a clear glass vase where stems and water are visible, a reminder of freshness and care. The focal flowers are large, opening roses in soft orange and deep golden yellow whose velvety petals spiral outward; their subtle citrus-rose fragrance seems almost audible in morning light. Bright yellow gerbera daisies punctuate the grouping with bold, cheerful faces, while deep burgundy-maroon carnations introduce plush texture and a grounding contrast. Sprays of white alstroemeria lend lightness and small, elegant accents among the larger blooms, and abundant green foliage-shiny and varied in shape-frames the display with lively movement. Nestled to the lower right and slightly layered over the bouquet, a shiny silver Mylar balloon reflects the scene. Its center shows a playful bunch of illustrated balloons in sky blue, purple, lime green, pink and yellow, decorated with stripes, polka dots and checker patterns. Across the balloon, cheerful yellow-and-blue lettering with a subtle shadow spells "Get Well Soon," while tiny starburst graphics rim the white border and a discreet "KALEIDOSCOPE" logo appears at the very bottom. This is the sort of thoughtful, uplifting combination Old Ford Florist prepares for neighbours across Roman Road and Victoria Park-suitable for bedside comfort or same-day local delivery when someone needs a gentle lift.
GET WELL WISHES
£65.00
Overflowing with radiant colour and textured delight, this handcrafted bouquet embodies the cheerful vibrancy of Old Ford living. Set against a pure white background, the composition springs to life with full-bloomed roses unfurling in a sun-dappled gradient-gentle peach merging into vibrant orange, much like the autumn leaves along Wick Lane. Cheerful white chrysanthemums, their petals crisp and bright with vivid green centers, dance between exuberant magenta-purple varieties, each bursting around a glowing lime-green center that invites the eye to linger. The arrangement is anchored by an abundance of glossy, dark green foliage, evoking the natural richness of lawns and parkways nearby. Subtle botanical artistry emerges in the arching lines of bear grass, gracefully sweeping over the bouquet in a gesture of modern elegance that Old Ford Florist is known for. This floral gathering is expertly wrapped at the base in luminous, crinkled orange paper, adding a playful pop and suggesting a gift full of optimism. Crafted for moments of celebration-whether it's a milestone along the Hertford Union Canal or the simple joy of a sunny day-the bouquet exudes energy and contentment. Its rich scents, lively hues, and thoughtfully layered textures feel as though they're sharing in the laughter and chatter of any Old Ford household, making it a joyful choice for same-day delivery or a personal pick-me-up.
HONEYMOON
£55.00
A rich, romantic bouquet composed of equal parts deep red and muted burgundy roses paired with pale lavender and dusty-purple roses, gathered into a dense, rounded silhouette that feels both opulent and intimate. The blossoms are shown at peak bloom with unfurling petals that layer like velvet, while dark green foliage-possibly Salal or Ruscus-frames each head and gives the composition weight and rhythm. Interspersed among the roses are bright red-orange rose hips, their glossy skins catching the light and offering a playful, autumnal counterpoint to the soft mauves; they bring a hint of hedgerow freshness as if gathered on a brisk walk near Roman Road Market. The bouquet rests in a reflective mercury glass vase whose antique silver mottling throws soft highlights and shadow back into the blooms; natural raffia is tied at the neck, lending a hand-finished, local market feel. A rectangular white tag hangs forward from the raffia, marked with a small rose motif and a handwritten note in green script, ready for a personal message. Against the brilliant white background the colours feel heightened and pure, smelling faintly of heady rose oil and green stems. This arrangement reads as a thoughtful, considered gift-suitable for anniversaries, small celebrations, or simply to bring a touch of quiet luxury to a kitchen table in Old Ford or to brighten a flat near Mile End. The overall impression is one of careful craftsmanship, seasonal texture, and quietly confident elegance.
LOVE & PASSION
£65.00
A full, rounded bouquet of soft cream roses, vivid magenta chrysanthemums, and airy white daisies stands out clearly against a bright white backdrop, every petal illuminated as though under gentle daylight streaming into a home near Old Ford Road. The roses, with their pale buttery centres and elegant spirals of velvety petals, form the calm heart of the arrangement, giving a sense of poise and refinement. Encircling them, plump chrysanthemum "mums" in shades of fuchsia and deep pink burst with energy, their many layered petals framing bright yellow-green centres that add a lively sparkle, like city lights seen from the towpath along the canal. Threaded delicately among these bolder blooms are fine sprays of white, chamomile-like daisies; their tiny yellow eyes and slender petals bring a wildflower charm, softening the composition and suggesting freshly picked stems from a riverside verge in Old Ford. Tucked between the flowers, rich green leaves provide contrast and depth, making the lighter tones appear even more luminous. At the base, the stems are drawn together in a tidy bundle and secured with a green and white checkered ribbon, the fabric sitting snugly against the smooth, fresh stems and adding a homely, handcrafted detail. The bouquet is photographed so that each blossom seems almost within reach, textures and colours crisply defined yet harmoniously blended. The overall feeling is one of joyful generosity and warm thoughtfulness, a versatile floral gift suited to birthdays, thank-you gestures, or welcoming a new neighbour in Old Ford, its colours suggesting optimism and its structure reflecting the careful artistry of a skilled local florist.
LOVELY DREAMER
£50.00
Carefully arranged and photographed on a stark white background, this dense, hand-tied bouquet reads like a small celebration for the senses, the kind I might place on a windowsill overlooking Roman Road Market. Several large magenta Gerbera daisies dominate the composition, their concentric petals radiating from dark, almost intricate central discs; their colour is a vivid, fuchsia-leaning magenta that brings instant cheer. Interspersed among them are creamy white roses, their layered petals tightly furled at the heart and gently opening toward the edges, offering a soft, familiar scent and a timeless romantic counterpoint to the gerberas' exuberance. Deep purple Alstroemeria or Peruvian lilies thread through the bouquet, their trumpet-like shapes and spotted throats contributing delicate pattern and a subtle exotic note. Lush green foliage - a combination of broad glossy leaves and more linear, sword-like greens - builds volume and sculptural support, catching light to create pleasant highlights and soft shadows. A clear glass vase is slightly visible at the base, giving weight and balance to the arrangement without stealing focus. The overall mood is joyful yet elegant, suited for gifting, hosting, or quiet remembrance; it feels at home in a flat near Victoria Park or delivered locally across Old Ford. As a florist who arranges daily for neighbours, I note the freshness, the tactile variety of textures, and the care in balancing colour so the bouquet reads beautifully from every angle.
MESMERIZING HARMONY
£49.00
A luminous, tightly packed seasonal bouquet captured from above on a pure white background, evoking the turning leaves and harvest air of Old Ford and the green spaces around Victoria Park. At its heart several fully unfurled orange lilies dominate the scene with their elegant, trumpet-like petals and soft sheen; numerous small buds in pale orange and bright green promise more blossom to come, adding a layered sense of depth. Around them, cheerful Gerbera daisies in pumpkin orange and deep burgundy-red sit like tiny suns, their radiating petals drawing the eye inward. Creamy white lisianthus appear as ruffled clouds among the bolder flowers, softening the palette, while delicate Astrantia clusters in muted purple and lavender contribute a fine, starry texture that gives the arrangement an airy intricacy. Large, lobed leaves in warm reddish-brown and maroon-reminiscent of oak or aged maple-are woven through the bouquet, their slightly curled edges lending seasonal authenticity, while fresh green foliage and slender stems provide contrast and lively structure. The whole piece is bright, lush, and impeccably fresh, as if gathered that morning from a local market near Old Ford Road; its scent suggests a honeyed lily sweetness underscored by green, woodsy notes. This design feels celebratory and grounding at once: ideal for a Thanksgiving table, a harvest-themed event, or a thoughtful autumn gift delivered across Old Ford and nearby neighbourhoods, carrying with it the comforting colours and textures of late-year gardens.
NATURE'S PALETTE
£74.50
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.
PINK DAZE
£49.00
An artfully composed bouquet glows at the centre of the image, displayed in a squat, clear glass vase whose subtle texture catches the light and gently distorts the tangle of stems inside. The flowers seem to bask in a wash of soft, natural daylight, with the background fading into a bright, slightly misted white that suggests a window or airy Old Ford studio on a calm morning. Dominating the arrangement are generous magenta gerbera daisies, their glossy petals layered in neat circles around dark, almost velvet-like centres that draw the eye immediately. Interlaced between these bold blooms are striking bicolour chrysanthemums, each small petal tipped with vivid purple that gradually fades to white as it reaches towards the golden disc at the heart of the flower, creating a lively, firework-like effect. Creamy white spray roses, some tightly furled and others opening into soft rosettes, lend a gentle, timeless elegance, their smooth petals contrasting with the more textured daisies and mums. Wisps of white baby's breath drift through the bouquet, like tiny clouds suspended among the stronger colours, adding volume without heaviness. Deep green foliage peeks out from beneath and behind, framing the blooms and giving the piece a natural, garden-fresh feeling. A length of rustic twine is tied around the vase's neck in a simple bow, holding a small white gift tag adorned with a stylised pink flower and flowing script that hints at a florist's care rather than a mass-produced label. The whole composition feels like a joyful doorstep surprise, the kind of thoughtfully arranged bouquet a local Old Ford florist might send for same-day delivery to mark a birthday, congratulate a neighbour on Roman Road, or simply brighten a living room near the Hertford Union Canal.
PINK SWEETNESS
£55.00
This composition feels like a small celebration of spring captured in a glass-rimmed vase: three striking fuchsia-pink Gerbera daisies dominate the scene with their layered, spoke-like petals and dark, contrasting centres, while clusters of lavender-pink roses nestle close, their tight buds unfurling into soft, velvety curves. Scattered among them are feathery sprays of purple statice or limonium, whose tiny papery florets add a cool blue-violet punctuation and delicate texture against the larger heads. The visual weight is grounded by lush, verdant greenery-broad salal or eucalyptus leaves that provide a crisp, slightly waxy backdrop and a hint of fresh foliage aroma. The bouquet is wrapped in an inner sheet of pale pink matte tissue and an outer layer of sheer, crinkled fuchsia cellophane that catches the light and creates a coordinated, gift-ready presentation; the florist's careful folds leave the top rim of a clear glass vase visible, signaling immediate display. There's an approachable fragrance here: roses offering a soft perfume and the foliage lending a green, almost citrusy lift that's subtle rather than overpowering. Picture this arrangement being delivered around Old Ford toward the Regent's Canal or Bow Road, arriving to brighten a kitchen table, mark a birthday, or offer congratulations. The composition balances exuberance and tenderness-playful colours with thoughtful craftsmanship-perfect for sending warmth across the neighbourhood.
SORBET
£49.00
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. Deep green foliage encircles and anchors the design, the leaves smooth and slightly glossy, providing a natural frame that sets off the vibrancy of the petals. The smooth, sharp lines of the white box contrast pleasantly with the softness of the flowers, making the arrangement feel contemporary and easy to place on a kitchen table, office desk, or windowsill overlooking Old Ford Road. The whole composition suggests a joyful, affordable gift-ideal for birthdays, get-well wishes, or everyday cheer-ready for local flower delivery across Old Ford and the surrounding neighbourhoods.
SPARKLING EYES
£50.00
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
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. With its joyful palette and confident shape, this arrangement evokes celebration and encouragement - the sort of bouquet you might send to honour a new beginning, congratulate a friend settling into a flat near Old Ford, or simply brighten a loved one's day with the timeless charm of expertly arranged roses.
SUNRISE
£60.00
Presented against a clean white backdrop, this densely packed bouquet sings of late-spring warmth and thoughtful craftsmanship from a local East London perspective. Radiant yellow Asiatic lilies rise like golden trumpets, some fully open and freckled at their centres, others slender and closed, suggesting movement and anticipation. Nestled nearby, soft lavender-purple roses unfurl in delicate spirals, offering a cool, calming note amid the more exuberant hues. Generous orange Gerbera daisies sit prominently with their bold, flat petals, while chartreuse button chrysanthemums create textured, moss-like pockets that make the bouquet feel abundant and handassembled. Small, spherical orange and yellow spiky accents - reminiscent of Craspedia or other billy-button varieties - scatter joyful highlights through the massing. Several silvery blue Eryngium thistles add an unexpected, architectural contrast: their pointed bracts and metallic tones give the design a contemporary edge and guide the eye outward from the centre. Varied foliage - wide lily leaves, glossy filler greens and fine, airy stems - frames the composition, adding depth and a fresh, green scent that quietly perfumes the arrangement. As a florist working around Old Ford and the lanes that lead toward Roman Road and Bow, I see this bouquet as versatile: celebratory at a birthday brunch, warm for a get-well visit, or composed enough for a bedside sympathy vase. Prepared with local care by Old Ford Florist, it carries an approachable elegance suited to homes and small events across the neighbourhood.
TROPIC GETAWAY

Rich, velvety red roses stand front and centre, their depth complemented by the luminous white of large gerbera daisies, each boldly punctuated with a dark brown centre reminiscent of local Old Ford heritage brickwork. Wispy light lavender lisianthus, some unfurling from graceful buds, drift among the blooms like a gentle April breeze coming down Wick Lane. The delicate filler flowers create a soft, weightless effect, reminiscent of morning mist rising over the River Lea. Eucalyptus leaves, with their round, silvery sheen, arc above the arrangement, introducing a cool tone and inviting the subtle, refreshing aroma that lingers in the mind. Strong, polished dark green leaves artfully encircle the base, providing structural beauty and a sense of purpose. The clear water and visible stems speak to the bouquet's freshness-as if picked that very morning from nearby gardens.
