ALLURING BLOOMS
ALLURING BLOOMS
£99.00
Set against a bright white backdrop, this bouquet looks like a little piece of spring sky gathered in the hands. At its centre, plush garden roses in shades of blush, dusty pink, and muted mauve open in generous spirals, each petal soft and velvety, evoking the romance of an evening walk through Poplar's quieter streets near Bartlett Park. Around them, layers of carnations billow and curl, their ruffled petals fading from creamy beige and soft blush into richer rose and fuchsia at the tips, giving the arrangement a soothing, cloud-like volume. Cool, dramatic notes appear in the deep indigo and royal blue flowers tucked between the pink tones: one fully open anemone with a near-black centre anchors the base, while elongated tulip-like buds in the same jewel-blue shade rise like brushstrokes of colour. Slim stems of lilac and pale lavender stock weave upward, their tiny clustered blooms lending a misty, romantic haze and suggesting a light, powdery fragrance. The greens are plentiful and varied-shiny dark foliage, likely rose leaves, mixed with rounded, silvery eucalyptus that adds structure and a hint of fresh woodland scent. All the stems are drawn together in a careful hand-tied finish, the cut ends neatly aligned and visible, ready to be placed in water. The overall mood is calm yet uplifting, a floral embrace perfect for a birthday surprise, a congratulations bouquet delivered to a new flat near Poplar High Street, or a simple, heartfelt reminder of beauty sent to someone who needs gentle encouragement.

FLORIST CHOICE 200
FLORIST CHOICE £200
£200.00
A full, rounded bouquet brimming with colour is shown against a simple white backdrop, highlighting the rich textures and careful craftsmanship of a seasoned Poplar florist. The composition feels both luxurious and uplifting, as if it has just been styled for same-day delivery to a home near Poplar High Street or an office by the Blackwall Tunnel. Dominating the arrangement are sunny yellow blooms: classic yellow roses with their tightly whorled petals, framed by generous yellow chrysanthemums and smaller daisy-like flowers that seem to glow from within. Striking orange gerbera daisies and petite orange daisy forms weave through the yellows, their bold, flat petals radiating out from darker centres, creating an inviting warmth reminiscent of late-afternoon light along the docks. Balanced against these hot tones are plush, deep purple lisianthus, their ruffled petals curling delicately like miniature roses. A few softer lavender and white lisianthus buds add gentle highlights, suggesting flowers just on the verge of unfolding. Nestled among the blossoms, crisp lime-green button chrysanthemums contribute a cheerful, rounded texture that keeps the eye moving. Dotted throughout are polished clusters of crimson hypericum berries, which catch the eye with their smooth, bead-like shine and give a celebratory accent to the design. Surrounding the bouquet is a generous layer of dark green foliage-likely ruscus-providing a rich, verdant base, while fine blades of ornamental grass shoot outward and upward, introducing a feeling of lightness and motion. The stems are tightly gathered and neatly bound, emphasising the bouquet's hand-tied character and freshness. The mood is joyful and generous, perfectly suited to brighten a kitchen table in Poplar, send congratulations, or add a colourful note to a relaxed weekend gathering.
TROPICAL SENSATION
£59.00
A chic pastel pink hatbox sits perfectly centred on a white backdrop, holding a lavish bouquet that feels both contemporary and warmly romantic, much like the mix of old and new you find around Poplar High Street. The cylindrical box has a matte, blush tone that looks soft to the touch, encircled by a coral-red satin ribbon tied into a tidy bow, from which hangs a cream tag with elegant green script, hinting at a bespoke florist delivery. From this base, the flowers rise and spill out in a lush, rounded dome, appearing almost weightless as they hover over the rim. At the front, a large bi-colour rose anchors the design, its outer petals a gentle pale pink fading inward to a deeper, more saturated swirl of rose-pink at the heart. Around it, white chrysanthemum blooms with bright green centres bring a crisp, clean contrast, like small bursts of light in the arrangement. Slender white alstroemeria, with their faint speckling and lily-like trumpets, weave between the larger flowers, while pockets of deep pink and fuchsia blossoms add vibrancy and playfulness. Eucalyptus leaves, in their characteristic rounded, silvery-green form, curve through the bouquet, mingling with darker foliage for texture and depth, and tiny green buds suggest new growth and freshness. The overall impression is one of calm celebration and quiet luxury, the kind of arrangement you might send to a new home near Chrisp Street Market or for an anniversary dinner overlooking the docks. It conveys affection, care, and a sense of occasion without ever feeling overstated, just like a thoughtful gift chosen by someone who knows Poplar well.
CAPRI CALYPSO
£65.00
A generously filled, modern floral arrangement bursts with colour from the centre of a clear square glass vase, captured against a clean white background that enhances every detail. The bouquet is a carefully layered mix of yellow, white, and green blooms, creating a sense of optimism and calm that would feel perfectly at home in a Poplar living room overlooking the park or on a desk near Blackwall. Golden yellow roses draw the eye first, some fully open and spiralled, others still in bud, promising more beauty to come. Around them are clusters of petite yellow spray roses, giving the design a textured, almost honeycomb effect. Soft white pompom chrysanthemums form rounded cushions throughout, their numerous petals packed tightly like tiny snowballs. Contrasting with these are vivid lime green button chrysanthemums-small, globe-shaped flowers that punctuate the arrangement with playful energy-and larger, airy pale green blooms with gently ruffled edges, reminiscent of green carnations or decorative garden mums. The flowers are cradled in abundant foliage: glossy dark green leaves, variegated leaves edged in white, and fine, feathery sprigs that lend movement and depth. Scattered between the larger blooms are little clusters of white, starry filler flowers, adding a delicate, almost lace-like touch. The vase itself is wrapped at its waist with a band of rustic natural fibre or bark, then finished with a bright lime green ribbon, tying the whole palette together. Visible green stems are neatly aligned in the water, hinting at the freshness of the flowers. The arrangement evokes warmth, thoughtfulness, and renewal-a design that could accompany a birthday celebration in Poplar, a get-well wish, or a simple "thinking of you" delivery on a quiet residential street.
FRESH BLOSSOM
£64.50
This abundant floral arrangement, seen in the soft daylight that filters through Poplar Lane, bursts forth with a dramatic display of colour and texture. Oversized clusters of hydrangea in swirling hues of indigo, teal, and muted violet form a lavish heart to the bouquet, their multi-petaled fullness offering both volume and cool tonal depth. Lavender and lilac-hued roses nestle among the hydrangeas-their elegantly spiralled petals unfurling with a sense of timeless romance, while creamy white roses bring refined balance and classic beauty. Clusters of luminous white ranunculus provide plush, layered texture, their soft density set against the delicate brightness of pale yellow lisianthus both in bud and bloom. Sprays of vivid fuchsia-pink filler flowers dart between the larger blossoms, introducing energetic notes, while feathery pale pink astilbe and lacy, near-translucent green filler (perhaps Queen Anne's lace) impart an airy quality along the bouquet's edge. Glossy, dark green foliage tucks throughout, lending a sense of structure and verdancy. The whole gathering is tightly arranged and tied with a gleaming royal purple satin ribbon, their stems neat and ready for display. This bouquet evokes joyful celebration-whether gracing a festive gathering by Poplar's market, marking a special anniversary, or brightening a loved one's day with local freshness and charm, it is a testament to the florist's art and connection to the community.

BRIGHT KISS

£55.00
Captured against a bright, uncluttered white backdrop, this compact yet luxurious floral arrangement feels like a moment of calm lifted straight from a Poplar townhouse overlooking Bartlett Park. Central to the design are two show-stopping white Oriental lilies, their broad petals gracefully curved and slightly reflexed, exposing warm reddish-brown stamens that sit like sculptural accents within each bloom. Encircling these lilies is a generous collar of pastel pink roses, some set close to the vase in tight, romantic buds, others opening just enough to reveal layers of softly ruffled petals, suggesting affection and quiet joy. Threaded through the roses are dainty stems of pink and cream alstroemeria, their petals streaked and speckled with hints of yellow, adding gentle movement and interest. Light clusters of tiny white filler flowers, reminiscent of baby's breath, weave through the composition, bringing a sense of air and space, as though the bouquet were gently floating. Slender green leaves arch and weave between the blooms, partnered with broader, glossy foliage that grounds the design and adds a cool freshness, not unlike a breeze rolling in from the nearby River Thames. The bouquet is arranged in a clear, rectangular glass vase that reveals the neat stems inside, suggesting skilled hands at work and an eye for balance. A soft pink ribbon wraps horizontally around the vase, providing a refined finishing touch that feels perfect for a bedside table, a dining nook, or a small celebration at home. In the lower right corner of the image, a bold orange circle with white capital lettering clearly states "VASE INCLUDED," making it easy to understand that this is a complete, ready-to-display floral gift, ideal for same-day delivery around Poplar.

FLORIST CHOICE £70
£70.00
A generously sized, professionally arranged fresh flower bouquet stands upright against a crisp white backdrop, its colours echoing the lively streets of Poplar. In the heart of the design, fully opened pink roses unfurl layer upon layer of soft petals, their gentle blush tone giving the bouquet a romantic, affectionate character. Nestled close by, sunny yellow gerbera daisies with prominent dark centres anchor the arrangement, their bold disks and neatly radiating petals adding energy and focus. Shooting up through the middle and back, rich blue delphinium spikes draw the eye upward, their cool hue balancing the warmth of the pinks and yellows like the calm of the Thames beside the bustle of nearby Canary Wharf.   

A tapestry of green foliage surrounds and supports the blooms. Fine, feathery fern fronds peek from the lower edges, softening the outline, while broad, lacquered green leaves curve around the stems to form a natural collar. Some of these leaves carry delicate lighter stripes, adding subtle pattern and sophistication. Between the major flowers, clumps of vivid, textured green filler-reminiscent of compact garden cushions-create extra volume and a lush, almost meadow-like feel. Slim, pale green stems with tiny unopened buds extend lightly above the main flower heads, giving the composition movement and freshness, as if the bouquet has just been gathered from a garden near Poplar Recreation Ground.   

The stems are tightly bound and clearly visible, tied with a simple wrap that emphasises the hand-tied craftsmanship. This striking arrangement would make a joyful centerpiece for a celebration dinner in Poplar, a heartfelt birthday surprise, or an elegant bouquet for same-day delivery to nearby homes and offices along East India Dock Road.
NATURAL POETRY
£60.00
A round, luxuriant bouquet is shown against a crisp white backdrop, every bloom sharply defined as if freshly arranged in a Poplar flower studio. Dominating the composition are generous cream roses, their velvety petals layered in spirals that catch the light and give a subtle sense of movement, like a slow breath in and out. Nestled around them are clusters of pink spray roses, some tiny and tightly closed, others gradually unfolding, adding a playful, almost conversational feel as the shades of pink deepen and soften across the bouquet. A bright pink gerbera daisy, with its distinctive ring of slim petals and rich brown centre, brings a cheerful note that recalls a sunny walk along the Limehouse Cut on a spring day. Ruffled pale pink carnations provide a cushion of texture, their frilled petals overlapping to create soft shadows and a reassuring fullness. Slender white alstroemeria blooms, brushed on the inside with fine reddish markings, lend an elegant, almost painterly detail, while flecks of pure white baby's breath are scattered throughout like tiny stars. Fresh green leaves and stems weave between the flowers, adding contrast and suggesting the vitality of just-cut stems brought in from an early morning delivery. The visible hand-tied base, where the stems are pulled neatly together, hints at the care and precision of a local Poplar florist who understands how to balance romance and simplicity. The bouquet radiates quiet celebration and heartfelt affection, ideal for marking new beginnings, offering congratulations, or sending a gentle message of support to friends and family across E14.
AMALFI LOVE
£59.00
In the heart of Poplar, an exuberant bouquet of hand-picked Gerbera daisies sits elegantly in a clear glass vase, echoing the vibrant pulse of the community around the Limehouse Cut. This composition is a joyful celebration of color: radiant yellow daisies evoke the first rays of sunlight streaming through East India Dock, while fiery orange and brilliant fuchsia blooms infuse the scene with warmth and vitality. Each flower is distinguished by its pronounced dark center, creating a dramatic contrast against the brightness of the petals, all softened by a scattering of fresh, verdant leaves. The bouquet is artfully wrapped in cozy brown kraft paper, gently crinkled to suggest a rustic yet sophisticated aesthetic, and protected by a sheath of transparent cellophane that highlights the structural harmony of the arrangement. Visible through the glass, the clean, sturdy stems are arranged in fresh water and neatly secured with textured natural twine, from which a minimalist white tag hangs - detailed with a simple rose drawing, an affectionate nod to classic floral tradition. The entire arrangement feels like a burst of happiness, perfectly suited for celebrating milestones, expressing gratitude, or serving as a luminous piece of décor in a modern Poplar apartment. Its bright array and masterful craftsmanship pay tribute to the area's mix of tradition and renewal, making it perfect for those seeking thoughtful flower delivery locally.
SUNNY GARDEN
£49.00
Radiating warmth and elegance, this heart-shaped flower box captures the essence of thoughtful luxury, meticulously crafted by a local Poplar florist for life's most significant moments. Nestled within a matte black, hatbox-style container, nearly two dozen or more creamy white roses are arranged in a full, lush dome-every bloom showcasing the artisan's eye for form and freshness. The soft, velvety petals range from the gentle artistry of just-opening buds to fully blossomed roses, their creamy hue kissed with subtle notes of green at the base. This harmonious blend infuses the piece with texture and depth, inviting the eye to linger and the mind to wander through its gentle layers. A vibrant, scarlet red satin ribbon encircles the box, tied into a classic bow with long, flowing ends-its bold, glossy finish creating a dramatic contrast against the white blossoms and the deep black of the container. Echoing the refined spirit of Poplar, the arrangement's presentation is clean and uncluttered, reminiscent of a gallery window along Chrisp Street. Even, soft lighting reveals each nuance: the pristine purity of the roses, the luxurious fold of satin, the promise of lasting freshness. The scent, faint and sweet, conjures feelings of love, hope, and remembrance. A statement of contemporary grace, this arrangement is perfect for marking anniversaries in Limehouse, expressing affection, or sending gentle condolences-delivered locally by a team who understand the significance of every floral tribute.

NATURE'S PALETTE
£74.50
Against a bright white backdrop that eliminates distraction, this exuberant mixed bouquet seems to glow, its colours and textures echoing the lively energy of Poplar's streets and waterside paths. The arrangement is tightly clustered into a rounded, almost domed shape, creating an immediate sense of abundance. At its heart, several large roses unfurl with luxurious softness, their petals shifting from luminous golden yellow at the centres to deeper orange and hints of reddish-orange on the outer edges, recalling the warm tones of late-day sunlight on nearby East India Dock Basin. Between these roses, crisp white daisy-like chrysanthemums are scattered liberally, their petals radiating around vivid lime-green centres that lend a refreshing, almost citrus brightness. Punctuating the whites and warm roses are clusters of smaller, deeply hued magenta and fuchsia chrysanthemums, their densely packed petals and yellow-green cores forming pockets of intense colour and intricate texture that might remind one of the colourful stalls of Chrisp Street Market. Lush, dark green foliage weaves through the blooms, its glossy leaves peeking out here and there to frame the flowers and add depth, suggesting leaves just cut from a thriving garden bed. At the bottom, the stems are gathered neatly into a hand-tied bundle, their clean, trimmed ends visible against the white, indicating fresh conditioning and expert floristry from a local Poplar florist. With its radiant blend of yellow, orange, white, magenta, and green, the bouquet conveys warmth, gratitude, and joyful celebration, ideal for marking promotions, birthdays, or thoughtful thank-you gestures around Poplar, Canary Wharf, and the wider E14 area.
BERRY BURST
£43.00
Set against a clean white backdrop, this lush bouquet feels like a breath of early summer drifting across Poplar's canals and tree-lined streets. At its centre, two generous domes of blush pink hydrangea dominate, each bloom made of countless delicate petals that curl and overlap, creating a plush, cushiony texture you can almost feel beneath your fingertips. Nestled alongside and between the hydrangeas are classic light pink roses, some fully open to reveal their iconic spiral hearts, others still in poised bud form, introducing a gentle sense of anticipation and unfolding beauty. Slender stems of bell-shaped blooms in soft lavender and lilac hues weave upwards and outwards, their nodding flowers reminiscent of campanula, adding a graceful vertical line and a touch of woodland charm, like the soft flowers one might spot near Poplar Recreation Ground. Tiny accents of deeper fuchsia and rich rose-pink filler flowers tuck into the gaps, lending contrast and fine detail, while the varied textures keep the eye moving around the bouquet. Lush green foliage fans out beneath and between the blossoms, from rounded leaves to slim, tender shoots tipped with unopened buds, reinforcing the impression of freshness and new growth. The stems are carefully gathered at the base and tied in a tidy, hand-tied bundle, ready to slip straight into a favourite vase. The arrangement radiates warmth, gratitude, and romantic joy, making it an ideal floral gift for birthdays, engagements, or Mother's Day, and easy to picture arriving as a same-day delivery to a Poplar townhouse or apartment, bringing soft colour and gentle fragrance into the room.

A densely packed bouquet of roses dominates the frame, set against a spotless white backdrop that makes the vibrant colours appear almost luminous. The arrangement is crafted as a perfect dome, the kind of hand-tied bouquet a Poplar florist might prepare for a special celebration along the Limehouse Cut. Dozens of roses in various stages of bloom are clustered tightly together: plush, deep red roses hint at romance; joyful sunshine-yellow roses brighten the palette; soft, powdery pinks and stronger fuchsia heads add a playful touch; warm orange roses glow like a late afternoon sky over Chrisp Street Market; and creamy white or ivory blooms bring calm and balance to the mix. Each flower showcases layered, velvety petals, some curled open to reveal their hearts, others still in compact buds promising days of beauty to come. Slender, dark green leaves emerge between the blooms and around the edges, providing a lush frame that emphasises the freshness of the cut stems. Below the flowering dome, the long green stems are drawn tightly together and finished with a green and white checked ribbon, echoing a traditional, almost countryside charm amid the urban setting of Poplar.

A lavish mixed bouquet overflows from a clean white square box, its rounded, dome-like shape forming a bright, uplifting presence against a pure white backdrop. The design is dominated by warm, sunny yellows - large, plush chrysanthemums and clusters of small yellow spray roses - their petals appearing soft and layered, as though you could sink your fingers into them. These golden tones bring to mind the first clear days of spring along Poplar High Street, full of light and optimism. Nestled among them are crisp white daisy-style chrysanthemums with vivid green centres, their simple, open faces giving the arrangement an easy, friendly charm. Fuller white chrysanthemums add extra volume, their many petals densely packed and slightly ruffled. Woven through this yellow and white base are vivid fuchsia and magenta chrysanthemums, some with paler pink highlights, creating a rich tapestry of colour that feels joyful without being overwhelming. Here and there, smaller pink and yellow rosebuds emerge from between the mums, hinting at future blossoms and giving the bouquet a sense of gentle movement. Deep green, glossy foliage forms a lush underlayer, with sturdy leaves cradling the blooms and framing the lower edge of the design, much as the mature trees frame the paths of nearby Bartlett Park.

MESMERIZING HARMONY
£49.00
A striking hand-tied bouquet of roses in vivid red, soft white, and intense royal blue is presented in a perfectly rounded, dome-shaped cluster, much like the statement displays often ordered in Poplar for important commemorations. The roses are densely packed, each blossom showcasing layers of velvety petals that curl inwards in a tight spiral, with some blooms more open to reveal their full, generous hearts. The crimson red roses bring warmth and depth, the white roses introduce a calm, creamy brightness, and the blue roses add an unexpected, almost regal note, together creating a clearly patriotic tricolour effect. The colours are thoughtfully distributed throughout the bouquet so that red, white, and blue appear evenly balanced from every angle. Dark, glossy green foliage is tucked between the blooms, its smooth leaves catching the light and adding a subtle sheen that frames the roses beautifully. At the bottom, you can see a tidy cluster of freshly cut stems, green with hints of brown, bound tightly as if ready to be placed in a clear vase on a windowsill overlooking Poplar's streets and waterways. The arrangement sits against a pure white background, which further intensifies the saturation of the petals and makes the bouquet appear almost three-dimensional.

The bouquet is a story of affection brought to life in the heart of Poplar, arranged by hands that know how to turn seasonal London blooms into something extraordinary. Central to this scene are delicate, pale lavender roses, their petals newly opened and sugggesting the gentle light of a spring morning along the Limehouse Cut. These sit amid lively magenta chrysanthemums and plump, fuchsia Gerbera daisies whose open, welcoming faces hint at cheerful gatherings and happy reunions on the banks of the Thames. Intertwined among the fuller blooms, clouds of baby's breath in pure white seem to float-tiny stars that bring softness and a sense of lightness to the compact, rounded bouquet. A base of lush, dark green foliage anchors the arrangement with natural structure, recalling the robust greenery of Bartlett Park on a breezy day. This floral composition is cradled within a clear glass vase textured with a crackle glaze, creating a tactile play of light that sparkles against the clean white backdrop. The finishing touch is a rustic raffia bow and a blank white gift tag, awaiting a personal message from giver to recipient.
