A detailed floral cross, created as a memorial tribute for a father, is displayed on a bright white surface that enhances every colour and contour, as though it has been carefully laid out in a quiet room before a South Norwood funeral. The cross itself is fully carpeted with small white spray chrysanthemums, each bloom fresh and tightly packed so that no gaps show, giving the surface a plush, almost quilted quality. Their pure white petals form a symbolic backdrop of peace and innocence. Running along the outer edge of the cross from the top arm to the base, a royal blue satin ribbon provides a crisp, elegant outline; its smooth, slightly reflective texture catches subtle highlights and helps define the traditional Christian shape with clarity. At the central intersection, a bold cluster of blue flowers creates a dramatic focal point. Rich, full-petalled blue carnations are gathered with more slender, vertical blue blossoms-flowers reminiscent of delphiniums or orchids-rising gently to give height and structure. These blooms are surrounded by dark green fern fronds and leafy greenery, their feathered and broad textures adding depth, contrast, and a sense of living nature to the design. Along the length of the vertical stem, the word "DAD" is lovingly formed from loops and folds of the same royal blue satin ribbon, the letters sitting securely on the cushion of chrysanthemums so they appear almost embroidered in fabric. This personalised touch makes the tribute especially poignant, ideal for families in South Norwood seeking a meaningful way to honour a much-loved father at a church service, crematorium chapel, or graveside. The overall composition feels serene and reverent, expressing both grief and gratitude through its thoughtful use of colour, texture, and symbolism.

A large sympathy cross, designed as a funeral tribute for a father, rests against a smooth white background, every detail clearly visible as if displayed in a South Norwood chapel before the service begins. The structure of the cross is completely covered with small white spray chrysanthemums, their delicate petals overlapping to form a soft, uniform blanket of blooms that symbolise purity and peace. Around the entire perimeter, a royal blue satin ribbon is neatly pinned, its rich, jewel-like tone and gentle sheen adding definition and solemn elegance while sharply outlining the traditional Christian shape. At the central crossing point of the arms, a striking spray of blue flowers captures attention. Generous, ruffled blue carnations, possibly dyed for intensity, mingle with more slender, spiked blue flowers reminiscent of delphiniums or orchids, creating both fullness and upward movement. These are framed by dark green fern fronds and leafy foliage, which introduce shadow, contrast, and a touch of the natural world. Along the vertical stem of the cross, the word "DAD" is painstakingly spelled out, not with printed letters but with the same royal blue satin ribbon, looped and formed by hand so each letter sits clearly on the white chrysanthemum base. This handcrafted detail transforms the floral cross from a general religious symbol into a deeply personal message of love and remembrance for a father. The composition, with its calm whites, dignified blues, and rich greenery, evokes quiet reflection and respect, perfectly suited for a funeral procession or memorial gathering in South Norwood, where family and friends pause to honour a life well lived.

    The tribute was perfect. I requested to have the ribbon color changed and they were nice enough to arrange that. Good florists.
