BASKETS / POSIES
An intimate, hand-composed basket of white and soft pink blooms, captured on a brilliant white backdrop so every petal and leaf reads clearly. The arrangement is anchored by several large, immaculate white Gerbera daisies, their deep brown to near-black centres adding a striking, grounding contrast to the pale petals. Soft, blush-pink carnations are tucked in close, their layered, ruffled forms creating a plush, comforting texture that invites touch. Interspersed are abundant small daisy-like flowers-likely spray chrysanthemums or asters-in white and pale buttery yellow, filling the bouquet and giving it a lush, generous silhouette. Scattered throughout are petite purple-blue accent flowers that lift the palette and introduce a cool, delicate counterpoint. The foliage is thoughtfully varied: cool, rounded eucalyptus leaves bring a silvery calm and a faint aromatic note; richer, glossy ruscus cascades from the left, producing an elegant sweep that softens the basket's rim; additional vibrant greens supply depth and body. The blooms sit in a light-woven wicker basket with a strong curved handle, its handcrafted weave lending a village-market charm that feels right for home delivery across Great Bookham and Little Bookham. The lighting is soft but clear, revealing petal texture and the gentle sheen of foliage while keeping the overall impression serene and fresh. Made to comfort, celebrate quietly, or sit serenely as a table centerpiece, this piece carries the practiced touch of a florist who understands local tastes and the small, meaningful gestures that matter in the community.
ALWAYS HERE FOR YOU BASKET
£50.00
Close your eyes and let me guide you through this artful Florist Choice Basket, imagined by a Great Bookham florist who knows the rhythm of the village. Picture fluffy, cloud-like hydrangeas in baby pink, lifting among ruffles of peonies and the swirling layers of ranunculus. Ranunculus, with their barely-there scent, press closely to fragrant lilies whose large petals catch the light in serene peachy tones. The atmosphere feels plush and cheerful, with a quiet refinement underpinning the joyful palette. Eucalyptus and wisps of delicate filler blooms peek through, adding gentle greenery and a hint of woodland freshness. Every stem has been thoughtfully chosen and precisely placed-a true celebration of seasonal grace. Such a basket would sit proudly at a celebration table within Great Bookham's village squares, or offer wordless comfort and beauty to someone in need of joy. The arrangement reads tactile and vivacious, inviting fingertips to brush the velvety petals, while the surrounding room fills with a gentle, uplifting scent. Centered over the heart is a clean white square overlay containing the words Florist Choice Basket in an elegant script font, with the price ?60 displayed below in a bold sans-serif. This premium gift is offered with same-day delivery across Great Bookham and nearby communities, reflecting the locality and care you expect from Flowers Great Bookham.
FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY BASKET
£60.00
A tranquil funeral basket arrangement sits in the centre of a stark white studio background, its soft natural shadow making it feel grounded and real, as if resting on a table in a quiet Great Bookham living room before a memorial service. The basket itself is woven in a light, cream-toned material, with a strong curved handle that arches gracefully over a dome of fresh flowers. At its heart is a single creamy white rose, perfectly formed with layered, swirling petals that suggest purity, remembrance, and a calm farewell. Flanking this focal bloom, two deep purple calla lilies rise with smooth, sculpted trumpets, their velvety colouring adding a sense of formality and reverence often chosen for services at nearby churches or chapels. Threaded through the arrangement are delicate clematis-like flowers in pale lilac and soft lavender, each star-shaped bloom featuring a gentle yellow centre, contributing an airy lightness that keeps the design from feeling heavy. Small clusters of cheerful yellow and crisp white blossoms, similar to freesia or alstroemeria, provide flickers of brightness that hint at gratitude and cherished memories. On the right, a vivid magenta gerbera-style flower leans outward, its bold ring of petals adding a single, striking accent that draws the eye. All of this colour is cradled in an abundance of glossy green foliage, from broad, rounded leaves to finer, lighter sprigs that fill out the basket and create a lush, natural base. Crafted with care one might expect from a local Great Bookham florist, this arrangement balances elegance and emotion, offering a gentle, uplifting tribute suitable for funerals, celebration-of-life gatherings, or sending condolences to families throughout the area.
TREASURED MOMENTS BASKET
£65.00
A softly glowing funeral flower basket rests against a white studio background, its light wicker sides and matching handle framing a carefully rounded arrangement of pastel blooms. Large, creamy white roses are the clear focal point, their petals opened to full, luxurious circles that convey tenderness and respect, like a quiet pause after a service at a local church in Great Bookham. These roses are interlaced with airy stems of star-shaped lavender clematis, each bloom with gentle lilac tones and bright yellow-green centres that bring subtle light and movement to the design. Clusters of freesia-like flowers in white and pale yellow, some in bud and some just opening, introduce a gentle sense of progression, as if marking memories unfolding over time. Additional white filler flowers with softly ruffled edges add fullness without crowding the main blooms, while abundant glossy dark green foliage cups and cradles the design, drawing the eye inward. The basket itself feels traditional yet refined, its neutral tone echoing the calm, understated character often sought for sympathy tributes around Great Bookham and nearby villages. The composition speaks in a quiet, reassuring voice: a message of peace, support, and heartfelt condolence. One can imagine this arrangement being delivered to a family home near the High Street or placed thoughtfully at a remembrance gathering, where the soft colours and gentle fragrance help create a moment of reflection, honouring a loved one's life with elegance and genuine care.
PEACE & PURITY BASKET
£65.00
A soothing funeral basket arrangement rests against a bright white backdrop, its gentle colours and rounded form offering a sense of peace and support. The basket itself is light in tone, likely birch or similar pale wood, with slim slats, a softly oval base, and four tiny feet that lift it just off the surface. An elegant arched handle rises from either side, painted or finished in an off-white shade that echoes the flowers. Inside, the bouquet is densely layered and shaped into a generous dome, as though the blooms are tenderly gathered in both hands. Creamy white roses open fully, their petals curving outwards in soft spirals that feel both pure and deeply comforting. Around them, red carnations in a rich, velvety shade bring depth and emotion, each ruffled head full and textured, like small, devoted hearts. Scattered among them are light pink and bi-coloured carnations, their petals touched with subtle pink and red markings that soften the overall contrast. Slender stems of smaller white flowers, reminiscent of freesias, thread between the roses and carnations, their bell-shaped blooms adding a delicate, almost whispering presence. A bed of glossy dark green leaves holds everything together, with fine, feathery greenery reaching out around the edges, giving the arrangement a natural, slightly airy outline. This is the kind of tribute a family in Great Bookham might send to a chapel service or memorial, perhaps for a farewell near Bookham Common or a quiet gathering at home. The interplay of white, red, and green creates a message of love, honour, and gentle remembrance, suitable for expressing sympathy with quiet dignity.
REMEMBRANCE BASKET
£60.00
As a local florist in Great Bookham, I picture this rounded bouquet placed on a farmhouse table near The Street or admired at a Bookham Common weekend market. The arrangement is densely packed and photographed on a crisp white background so every detail is clear: abundant garden roses in pale pink, warm yellow, and soft peach create a romantic, multi-dimensional core, their layered petals catching the light. Scattered between them are pale lavender and white clematis, their star-shaped blooms opening like breath of air against the fuller roses. Several blue Eryngium (sea holly) punctuate the design with spiky, steel-blue globes that bring architectural drama and tactile contrast. Velvet-toned purple lisianthus, some unfurling, others held in tight buds, lend a duskier, intimate tone, while bright red Hypericum berries speckle the composition with cheerful punctuation. The greenery is thoughtfully varied: large glossy leaves anchor the base, delicate feathery foliage weaves through the blooms, and hints of deep burgundy filler foliage create shadowed pockets. The lighting is gentle and natural, highlighting petal texture and the bouquet's domed silhouette; a soft shadow beneath it gives a sense of volume. This is the sort of hand-tied design Flowers Great Bookham prepares for celebrations, table centres, or to comfort - a bouquet that balances classic romance with unexpected, contemporary accents, and that carries the fresh, delicate scent of a garden after rain.
ETERNAL MEMORY POSY
£100.00
Seen from above on a paper-white surface, this hand-tied bouquet presents a classical, perfectly rounded profile built from pristine white lilies, creamy roses, and delicate Baby's Breath. The lilies dominate at the centre with their open, trumpet-shaped blooms; their smooth, porcelain-like petals arch away from central stamens shaded in gentle green and pale yellow, giving the composition subtle points of contrast. Around them, clusters of cream and ivory roses sit mostly as tight buds or half-open blossoms, their velvety layers creating a soft, tactile core that contrasts with the lilies' sleek surfaces. Fine sprays of Gypsophila thread between the larger flowers, producing a cloud-like lace that both softens and visually expands the bouquet. Fresh green leaves tuck beneath the massed flowers and peek out at the rim, providing a cool, natural frame that accentuates the whiteness without overwhelming it. The lighting reads as soft daylight - the kind we often get across Bookham Common on a calm morning - which emphasizes the bouquet's gentle shadows and the tender translucence of petals. As a florist working locally, Flowers Great Bookham would choose each stem for symmetry and scent, aiming for an arrangement that feels timeless yet locally rooted; this bouquet suits a village church wedding on Church Road, a thoughtful anniversary delivery to The Stones, or a peaceful arrangement for a memorial service. The overall impression is one of purity, refined craftsmanship, and a comforting, elegant presence that speaks to life's meaningful moments.
COMPASSION POSY
£90.00
A rounded, luxuriant bouquet of mixed lilies and roses sits isolated against a clean white backdrop, its colours and textures standing out as clearly as if you were viewing it on a counter in a Great Bookham florist's studio. The arrangement is tightly composed yet soft in outline, dominated by generous white lilies that flare open in elegant trumpets, their petals slightly ruffled at the edges and brushed with a hint of cream near the centre. Threaded between these are clusters of blush pink roses and creamy white roses in varying stages of bloom, some appearing as neat, cupped buds, others fully unfurled so that their velvety petals form gentle, layered swirls. Adding a bold accent, several vivid fuchsia and magenta Oriental lilies, likely in the Stargazer family, draw the eye with their darker speckles and warm, golden stamens, creating a dramatic contrast against the quieter tones. Fine sprays of white baby's breath (gypsophila) drift through the bouquet like tiny stars, softening the spaces between the larger flowers and lending a cloud-like lightness to the dense, domed silhouette. Small glimpses of deep green leaves and stems appear here and there, suggesting freshness and just-cut vitality. The lighting is bright and even, highlighting each colour and curve without harsh shadows, so every petal texture can almost be felt. This bouquet feels perfect for marking life's tender moments in Great Bookham, from romantic proposals in nearby fields and gardens to milestone birthdays celebrated at home, carrying with it the impression of gentle fragrance, quiet celebration, and carefully considered design.
CHERISHED MOMENTS POSY
£90.00
This arrangement reads like a small English garden gathered into a single, domed bouquet: full pink roses provide the soft, romantic punctuation while clusters of white freesia add crisp brightness and a hint of fragrance. The principal roses range from fully open blooms with velvet-thick petals to tighter, more coy buds; interspersed spray roses soften the transitions between focal blooms and create a layered, natural rhythm. White freesia sits upright in little fluted clusters, some flowers revealing pale yellow centres, others in tight sleeves that promise unfolding life over the coming days. A rich palette of greens-deep glossy foliage for structure and lighter variegated leaves for contrast-frames every bloom and enlivens the soft pinks and whites. The design is compact and symmetrical, crafted so the flowers sit closely together in a cushion shape with no stems exposed, producing a calming, formal silhouette ideal for remembrance or a tender celebration. The light in the image is neutral and natural, skimming the petals to reveal their texture and the gentle sheen of healthy leaves. As a local florist would suggest, this is the kind of piece often chosen for hospital rooms, sympathy bouquets, or intimate gatherings in and around Great Bookham and nearby Leatherhead - a design that reads as respectful, fresh, and quietly reassuring, available for careful local delivery when needed.
HEARTFELT SYMPATHY POSY
£90.00
