A three-dimensional Celtic cross fashioned entirely from fresh blooms sits crisply against a white background, photographed from a modest overhead vantage that reveals both its form and texture. The cross is predominantly made of small, densely clustered white spray chrysanthemums whose delicate petals form a plush, cloud-soft surface suggesting purity and quiet reflection. Interspersed with the white are vivid apple-green button chrysanthemums; their compact, almost spherical heads are used with intention to delineate the circular ring at the heart of the cross and to punctuate alternating bands across the arms, creating a visual rhythm reminiscent of traditional Celtic interlace. At the precise centre, where the arms meet, three orange-yellow roses open in a tight, luminous cluster, their warm tones bringing a gentle, hopeful glow against the cool white and bright green. A few sprigs of dark green fern or similar foliage tuck around the roses, providing shadowed contrast and a natural frame. The lighting is even, soft, and uncomplicated, chosen to emphasize petal detail and the arrangement's sculptural quality rather than dramatic shadow. This colour story - white, fresh green, and golden orange - subtly evokes Irish colours and would be particularly fitting as a funeral tribute for someone proud of Celtic roots, or as a memorial placed within a church near Malden Rushett, Chessington, or New Malden. The craftsmanship shows an experienced hand: clean edges, consistent density, and a centre that draws the eye with restrained warmth and reverence.

A carefully sculpted Celtic cross of fresh flowers fills the frame, seen from a gentle overhead angle against a bright, neutral white backdrop. The primary form is built from tightly clustered, pure white spray chrysanthemums whose soft, cushion-like petals give the cross a dignified, cloud-soft texture that reads as purity and calm. Woven through that white field are almost lime-green button chrysanthemums, their compact, spherical heads tracing the distinctive circular ring at the centre and punctuating alternating sections of the arms to suggest an interlaced Celtic knot. At the heart where the arms converge, three warm orange-gold roses bloom in full, their petals unfurling like small suns and offering a poignant point of warmth against the cooler whites and greens. A few deep green fern fronds and slender foliage stems cradle those roses, cutting the light and adding a natural, slightly glossy contrast so the centre reads as both tender and resilient. The lighting is soft and even, catching the velvety rose petals and the matte, papery texture of the chrysanthemums without harsh shadows, evoking a quiet morning service or a sunlit chapel. The palette - white, fresh apple green, and autumnal orange - quietly recalls Irish colours and Celtic symbolism while remaining universally reverent; the arrangement feels suited to a funeral chapel, a graveside remembrance, or a commemorative altar. As a florist, I note the structural precision here: dense, uniform flower placement gives the piece three-dimensional clarity and a tactile presence that invites touch but commands respect, a thoughtful tribute that balances tradition with simple, heartfelt beauty. This image depicts an elegant funeral cross arrangement, rich with symbolic detail and serene colour, ideal for memorial services throughout Malden Rushett. The cross shape is fully filled with white chrysanthemums, each blossom nestled tightly against the next, creating a thick, padded surface that resembles a soft, floral carpet. The white blooms lend a sense of purity and peace, forming a gentle backdrop for the more vivid centre. At the meeting point of the cross's arms sits a cluster of three roses in burnished tones of orange and gold, their petals softly unfurled and glowing like small lanterns of remembrance. A collar of fresh green foliage, including fine, fern-like leaves and clusters of tiny green filler, surrounds these roses, adding depth and a natural, woodland edge that recalls the greenery lining nearby lanes and bridle paths. At the four tips of the cross, domed groups of lime-green button chrysanthemums punctuate the design, their rounded, button-shaped flowers standing out against the white base like patches of bright spring moss. The lighting is clear and gentle, highlighting the contrast between the fluffy chrysanthemums and the smooth, satiny roses. The composition feels balanced and calm, a timeless expression of faith, love, and farewell that would rest beautifully beside a coffin or at the front of a chapel. Crafted with care by local florists serving Malden Rushett, this cross conveys comfort and hope through every carefully placed bloom.
