SUMMER FLOWERS
Bathed in clean, natural light against a stark white background, this compact, hand-tied arrangement feels like a small festival of summer and early autumn tones - vivid oranges, peachy corals, warm golds and touches of pure white. The design is densely packed and rounded: large, open roses with spiralling centres form the backbone, moving from deep, molten-orange to a softer sunflower-gold, their scent a rich, heady perfume that fills the air. Surrounding these are voluminous carnations in coral and burnt-orange hues, their frilled petals giving the bouquet softness and volume, while peach-gerbera lend a playful, radiating structure with their greenish-yellow eyes. Delicate white spray flowers, reminiscent of freesia or tiny chrysanthemums, nestle among the larger blooms and lift the palette with bright highlights. Light green, star-like filler blossoms and feathery sprigs peek through, adding breathability and a meadow-like texture, and rounded eucalyptus leaves provide a cool, silvery counterpoint to the warm tones. As a local florist arranging these stems I think of placing one of these bouquets on a window sill near Roman Road market or delivering it to a flat beside Three Colts Lane - a gift that smells as inviting as it looks. The stems are tied neatly at the base in a hand-tied style, ready for immediate display. For true local care and thoughtful presentation, Florist Old Ford often prepares this combination for neighbourhood birthdays, bright 'get well' wishes, or simply to bring a sunny, comforting presence into an Old Ford home.
BRIGHT KISS
£55.00
A round, luxuriously full bouquet is set against a pure white background, highlighting its soft mix of cream, blush, and warm pink tones that feel at home in a cosy Old Ford living room or café along Roman Road. At the centre, generously bloomed cream roses open in perfect spirals, their petals slightly curled at the edges as though they have just reached peak beauty. Surrounding them, clusters of pink spray roses and miniature rosebuds in varying stages of opening weave a story of romance and tenderness, each bud promising to unfurl in its own time. Pink gerbera daisies, with their wide, sunburst petals and rich brown centres, lift the mood of the bouquet, adding a youthful brightness that draws the eye. Light pink carnations, their petals layered and delicately frilled, lend a nostalgic softness, reminiscent of traditional English garden flowers treasured across East London terraces. Nestled in between, slender white alstroemeria petals, gently speckled with fine reddish markings, introduce a subtle pattern that rewards closer attention. Tiny white gypsophila blooms scatter through the design like lace, bringing airiness and a cloud-like softness that balances the denser roses and carnations. Fresh green leaves and stems weave discreetly throughout, offering contrast and a reminder of the garden origins of every stem. The gathered stems at the base are neatly bound, indicating a thoughtful, professional finish ready for gifting or same-day delivery around Old Ford. This bouquet carries a mood of hope, comfort, and quiet joy, ideal for sending congratulations, welcoming a new baby, or simply letting someone nearby know they are held in warm regard.
AMALFI LOVE
£59.00
A lavish dome of freshly cut roses fills the frame, their colours glowing against a spotless white background in a way that recalls a carefully arranged display in an Old Ford studio florist. The bouquet is tightly composed, creating an abundant, rounded silhouette where no gaps show, just a continuous tapestry of petals. Rich crimson and ruby reds are interwoven with light and mid-tone pinks, vivid fuchsia, glowing golden yellows, and fiery orange roses, with scattered cream and soft ivory blooms adding a gentle pause to the stronger colours. Each rose has its own character: some blossoms are open wide, their curved petals softly layered like satin, while others remain cupped and spiralled, promising to unfold over the coming days. Dark, healthy green leaves weave between the flower heads, adding contrast and giving the eye moments of rest from the intensity of the colours. Beneath the dome of petals, a tidy cluster of straight green stems is visible, gathered into a hand-tied bunch and secured with a green and white checked ribbon that brings to mind relaxed weekend walks across Victoria Park or down Roman Road. The lighting feels natural and crisp, picking out the velvety texture of the petals and the subtle shadows that give the arrangement depth and dimension. This is the sort of bouquet that might be chosen for a milestone birthday, a romantic surprise in Old Ford, or a cheerful thank-you delivered to a friend living near the canal. The overall mood is joyous yet refined, as if a skilled florist has taken great care to ensure every colour supports the next, creating a harmonious, celebratory composition.
WAIKIKI SUNSET
£69.00
Captured from a slightly elevated, top-down view on a clean white surface, this lively bouquet presents a warm, sensory mix of blooms and greenery that feels both modern and heartfelt. The composition centres on several full, peach-to-orange roses whose soft, layered petals unfold outward like warm apricot sunsets; their gentle fragrance is almost tangible in the photograph. Intermingled are starburst chrysanthemums: pristine white daisies with pale green centres that bring a crisp, fresh counterpoint, and deep magenta-purple mums with bright lime-green discs that inject a playful, confident note. Beneath and between the flowers, dense dark-green foliage-broad, glossy leaves reminiscent of ruscus-creates a lush, structured foundation that highlights each blossom's colour and form. A slim, arching strand of bright green decorative grass traces a delicate curve over the arrangement, introducing movement and an elegant, sculptural accent. The bouquet is gathered and wrapped at its stem in crinkled, translucent orange tissue or cellophane; the bright wrap complements the roses and signals a ready-to-give presentation. As prepared by the florists at Florist Old Ford, this arrangement evokes the warmth of local markets and morning deliveries along Old Ford Road and Roman Road Market, where fresh blooms are selected with care. Suitable for birthdays, housewarmings or to enliven an office near Victoria Park, it reads as a thoughtful, celebratory gift that balances scent, texture and a confident palette for delivery across Old Ford and neighbouring Bow.
HONEYMOON
£55.00
Presented against a clean white background, this exuberant bouquet appears almost to float, its round, full shape reminiscent of a bright flower cloud drifting over Old Ford's rooftops. The composition is anchored by sunny yellow roses, each bloom carefully selected for its tight spiral of petals and luminous tone, surrounded by generous heads of yellow chrysanthemums and daisy-like blossoms that create a soft, golden carpet of colour. Threaded between these are radiant orange gerbera daisies, their bold, flat petals and contrasting centres giving the eye distinct focal points, like bursts of laughter within the arrangement. Smaller orange flowers echo their warmth, blending seamlessly into the yellow spectrum and evoking the cheerful feel of a market morning near Roman Road. To balance the heat of these hues, the florist has woven in elegant stems of purple lisianthus, some unfurling into ruffled cups, others still held in smooth, tapered buds. Their deep violet tones lend a sophisticated calm and help define the bouquet's layered structure. Scattered pockets of lime-green button chrysanthemums add a playful, tactile element, their neat, rounded forms and fresh green shades injecting a lively, contemporary twist. Among the petals, glossy red Hypericum berries catch the light with a subtle shine, adding a seasonal, almost festive note that suggests celebrations, thank-you gifts, or bright birthday surprises. The whole display is framed and supported by rich, dark green foliage that fans out at the base, with slender grasses lifting the design upwards and outwards to create a sense of airiness and movement. Tied securely at the stems, the bouquet feels both abundant and carefully composed, ideal for delivery across Old Ford to bring joy, optimism, and vibrant colour into any home or workplace.
TROPICAL SENSATION
£59.00
A lush, rounded bouquet in shades of white, cream, and green is captured against a bright white backdrop, giving the impression of soft daylight pouring into a home in Old Ford. At the centre, several large ivory and creamy white roses are fully open, their petals forming generous, velvety cups that suggest quiet romance and timeless elegance. Interlaced with these are sculptural heads of ornamental cabbage, their deep green outer leaves wrapping protectively around tightly ruffled cores of pale green and yellow-green, adding a distinctly contemporary, almost sculpted feel to the composition. Around them dance clusters of tiny white spray chrysanthemums and daisy-like flowers, their many petals circling delicate yellow-green centres, bringing an airy, playful texture that lightens the overall look. Threaded through the bouquet are spiky, star-shaped blossoms - likely astrantia - in greenish-white tones, lending a fine, lacy intricacy that feels like wildflowers gathered along the towpath near the River Lea. Here and there, slim white alstroemeria blooms appear, their petals gently marked and slightly flared, adding subtle sophistication. A rich mix of fresh green foliage frames the entire design, with both broad, sturdy leaves and more slender stems creating depth and a natural, garden-style fullness. The stems at the base are clearly visible and tightly banded, emphasising the hand-tied craftsmanship that a local florist would prepare for same-day delivery around Old Ford and the wider East London area. The bouquet radiates a sense of calm freshness, ideal as a refined sympathy gesture, a chic housewarming gift, or an elegant centrepiece for a modern apartment overlooking Victoria Park.
AMAZON SANGRIA
£50.00
A bright, uplifting bouquet is shown in full detail against a clean white backdrop, the colours and textures glowing as if in soft daylight. Three striking sunflowers form the heart of the design, their wide, golden-yellow petals flaring out from densely packed, dark brown centres that hint at the familiar pattern of ripening seeds. Nestled between these bold faces are elegant white roses, some fully open, others still slightly cupped, their creamy petals layered in tight whorls that speak of classic romance and gentle fragrance. Dotted throughout, delicate daisy-like flowers, similar to chamomile or feverfew, introduce a sense of innocence and movement; their small white petals and sunny yellow centres create a dainty contrast to the larger blooms. Flowing around and through the bouquet is abundant chartreuse-green foliage, with tiny buds and fine, feathery stems that give a sense of lightness and space, like wildflowers gathered from a field along the canal paths near Old Ford. The stems below are neatly aligned and bound together with a soft lime-green ribbon, tied by hand in a modest bow that hangs slightly loose, reinforcing the bouquet's relaxed, rustic-chic personality. The composition appears carefully crafted yet wonderfully natural, the colours balancing warmth and serenity, as if inviting the recipient to pause and smile. Perfect for celebrating a promotion, welcoming a new neighbour, or bringing cheer to a kitchen table overlooking Victoria Park, this hand-tied bouquet reflects the quiet joy and everyday celebrations of life around Old Ford, ready to be delivered fresh from the local florist's workbench.
JOYFUL SUNRISE
£69.00
A lush, rounded bouquet of mixed flowers is presented in a simple white square box, photographed against a spotless white backdrop so every colour and detail stands out clearly. The arrangement is densely packed, creating a satisfying, almost cushion-like dome of blooms that calls to mind a cheerful table centrepiece for a small gathering in an Old Ford flat overlooking the Regent's Canal. Golden yellow tones dominate the composition, with clusters of small, tightly budded yellow roses nestled beside generous yellow chrysanthemums whose soft, many-layered petals catch the light. These sunny flowers are gently cooled by a scattering of white daisy-style chrysanthemums with fresh green centres, as well as fuller white mums that lend volume and a sense of calm order to the design. Rich fuchsia and magenta chrysanthemums run through the bouquet like a joyful thread, some petals tinged with lighter pink, adding depth and a playful edge to the colour palette. Little hints of pink and yellow rosebuds punctuate the arrangement, giving it a sense of movement and natural growth, as if it has just been gathered from a well-tended garden near Old Ford Road. Around and beneath the blooms, deep green, glossy foliage provides a strong, verdant backdrop that makes the brighter shades appear even more luminous. The sleek white box serves as a modern substitute for a traditional vase, its smooth faces and clean lines making the bouquet look gift-ready and easy to place on a desk, sideboard, or café counter. This vibrant yet affordable mix suits birthdays, get-well wishes, and everyday surprises across Old Ford, radiating friendliness and uncomplicated joy.
SPARKLING EYES
£50.00
This arrangement reads like a warm spring hello, carefully balanced between exuberance and intimacy. At its heart sit three fuchsia Gerbera daisies-wide-faced, vivid and confident-each with a dark brown centre that punctuates the pink with bold contrast. Encircling them are lavender-pink roses in a muted dusty-rose register; their petals are still gently furled, suggesting very recent picking and a tender, unfolding presence. Speckled throughout are clusters of purple statice that add a delicate, papery texture and a cool violet depth beside the roses' soft blush. Underpinning the blooms is generous, verdant foliage-likely salal or eucalyptus-whose broad leaves supply structure, a subtle citrus-green scent and a pleasing, garden-fresh backdrop. The bouquet is presented in a translucent, layered wrap: pale pink tissue forms the inner cradle while an outer sheet of slightly crinkled, sheer fuchsia-pink cellophane adds a touch of shimmer and cohesiveness to the pink palette. The wrapping is folded with practiced hands and the top rim of a clear glass vase is just visible below, signalling immediate display readiness. In a quiet room the colours seem to breathe positivity; the roses offer a soft perfume while the gerberas contribute a light, green sweetness. Whether chosen for a birthday, anniversary, or to lift someone's day, this hand-tied composition feels both celebratory and intimate, a gesture that travels well to homes around Victoria Park, Roman Road Market and the neighbouring streets of Old Ford.
SORBET
£49.00
Carefully composed in a transparent tapered vase and photographed against a flawless white backdrop, this bouquet balances dramatic colour with soft, classical form. A generous, rounded cluster of deep blue hydrangeas takes centre stage, its mass of tiny petals creating a cool, tactile richness that anchors the whole design. Around its lower edges, creamy white roses bloom in tight, velveteen spirals, offering a delicate scent and a comforting, familiar texture. Above and through the blue cluster, pristine white calla lilies extend their smooth, trumpet-like blooms, porcelain in appearance and adding elegant vertical movement; a faint wash of pale green at their throats speaks to natural freshness. Interspersed among the lilies and roses are slender spires of white snapdragon or stock, their small florets climbing skyward and lending an airy, romantic cadence. The greens-glossy broad leaves and soft, lacy fern fronds-provide depth and a verdant counterpoint, their varied surfaces catching gentle highlights from the studio light. The clear vase reveals the tidy stems and water, underscoring the craft of arranging and the bouquet's freshness. As a local touch, this composition is the sort of sympathetic yet uplifting design our customers request for deliveries around Old Ford and near Roman Road Market; Florist Old Ford prepares similar arrangements for memorials, thoughtful anniversaries, or a peaceful centrepiece. The overall impression is one of understated luxury: balanced, soothing, and thoughtfully made by hands who understand both floral technique and the subtle moods of East London life.
YOU ARE EXQUISITE
£65.00
This Easter hatbox arrangement is captured in crisp studio light, yet it carries the warmth of a spring morning in Old Ford. A pastel yellow-green cylindrical hatbox sits firmly on a white surface, its sides decorated with scattered pastel Easter egg motifs in pale blue, pink, and white, each egg bearing tiny dots or stripes that add a whimsical, hand-painted charm. From this container rises a densely packed, rounded bouquet that almost seems to overflow with life. At the heart of the design, a large soft pink Gerbera daisy opens in a wide, flat disc, its layers of petals flawless and smooth, surrounding a neat pale green eye that anchors the entire composition. Around it, lively yellow chrysanthemums create a halo of sunshine, their fine petals and golden centres evoking the brightness of spring gardens along the streets leading to Roman Road Market. Coral-orange carnations are nestled in between, their gently frilled petals forming plush, cloud-like clusters that add both structure and a comforting warmth. Deep violet-purple lisianthus blooms peek out from shaded pockets within the bouquet, adding depth and a sophisticated contrast that keeps the arrangement from feeling too sweet. Fresh green foliage, including a few leaves with subtle creamy margins, frames and supports the flowers, breaking up the bold colours with calming greenery. The arrangement feels celebratory and welcoming, a perfect seasonal gift to brighten a home in Old Ford, whether placed on a hallway console, a kitchen table, or delivered as a thoughtful surprise to mark Easter, a spring birthday, or a simple moment of shared joy.
SORRENTO SUNRISE
£67.00
Against a clean, white studio-style background, this luxurious mixed bouquet unfolds in layers of soothing blue, vibrant purple, and tender pink, all carefully composed to feel both polished and natural. Central to the design are billowy heads of pale sky-blue hydrangeas, their countless tiny petals forming generous, cloud-like mounds that echo the soft, shifting light over nearby Victoria Park. Woven around and through them are arresting orchids in vivid fuchsia and deep plum-purple; their broad, velvety petals are etched with delicate speckles and veins, adding an unmistakably exotic note, as if a tropical bloom found its way into an East London garden. From the top and edges, graceful clematis stems reach outwards, their star and bell-shaped purple flowers introducing height and gentle movement, reminiscent of climbing vines along the terraces close to Roman Road. Nestled among these statement blooms, miniature roses in shades of blush pink and creamy white provide sweet, romantic touches, their rounded buds and unfolding petals suggesting tenderness and affection. A rich tapestry of greenery anchors the composition: glossy leaves, varied in size and tone, create a cool green cushion that intensifies the colours above while hinting at the bouquet's just-cut freshness. Every stem is gathered and tied with precision, evoking the practiced hand of a local Old Ford florist preparing a special delivery for a birthday brunch, a new home celebration, or a comforting get-well gift. The gentle, even lighting flatters each blossom, making it easy to imagine this arrangement brightening a kitchen table near the Hertford Union Canal or bringing a quiet sense of celebration to an office overlooking the waterways.
BLUE GROTTO
£100.00
Set against a pure white background, this abundant bouquet appears almost to float, its colours reminiscent of a soft Old Ford sunrise reflected on the water by the Hertford Union Canal. Central to the design are several large light pink peonies, captured in full bloom with petals unfolding in ruffled, cloud-like layers that give the bouquet a deeply romantic heart. Around them, generous heads of powder blue hydrangeas form a plush base, each cluster composed of dozens of petite blossoms that create a serene, cooling contrast to the warmth of the pinks. Emerging with confident flair, deep purple Vanda orchids punctuate the arrangement, their speckled petals and slightly glossy surface introducing an exotic note, as if rare blooms have been gathered from a hidden glasshouse. Slender, sculpted fuchsia calla lilies curl elegantly through the design, their trumpet forms adding movement and contemporary style. Tucked delicately among the larger flowers, blush pink spray roses provide a finer texture, their small blooms suggesting careful, detail-loving craftsmanship. A mix of lush dark green leaves and soft, silvery-green dusty miller peeks out at the edges, catching the light and framing the blossoms with both structure and softness. At the base, the stems are left long and visible, neatly bound in a hand-tied style that feels fresh from a trusted Old Ford florist's workbench. The bouquet radiates gentle opulence and tender emotion, perfectly suited to accompany an engagement celebration, an elegant birthday lunch, or an intimate gathering in a Victorian terrace near Victoria Park, ready for prompt local delivery.
COSTA DEL MAR
£114.00
Set against a pristine white background, this bouquet unfurls with confident harmony. The full, rounded design balances drama and grace, a classic romance reimagined with contemporary polish. Deep red roses anchor the center with velvet petals that tight spirals into the heart of the bloom, while purple Vanda orchids extend their broad, velvety petals, speckled with subtle darker tones that catch even the tiniest glint of light.

Nestled among these showstoppers are lisianthus in soft lilac, some buds still poised to open, hinting at quiet growth. A lush fabric of green foliage surrounds the blooms: large, glossy leaves provide a rich tapestry, while slender, elongated sprigs, with eucalyptus-like stems adding a hint of fragrant earth. Fresh green buds, varied in shape, punctuate the arrangement, and delicate pale-green filler sprigs weave through for texture and airiness.

The stems are neatly gathered at the base and bound with a decorative dark mesh ribbon-almost black or deep plum-creating an airy bow that gives the bouquet its modern, architectural finish. The overall mood reads as festive and luxurious, suitable for anniversaries, celebrations, or as an extravagant expression of thanks or admiration. Its intensity is tempered by the soft lavender and silvery tones of lisianthus, making it versatile for many occasions.

Florist Old Ford artisans deliver across Old Ford and surrounding neighbourhoods, including Mile End and Victoria Park.

MIDNIGHT RUSH
£105.00
Set against a crisp white background, this thoughtfully composed image shows a tender floral gift set styled as if ready to be delivered to a much-loved mum in Old Ford. On the left, a full, rounded bouquet leans slightly towards the viewer, brimming with soft pastels and gentle contrasts. Cream roses open generously at the heart of the design, their pale petals layered like folded satin. Around them, blush pink carnations add a ruffled, almost cloud-like texture, while bright pink gerbera daisies, each with a contrasting dark brown centre, radiate a joyful energy that feels like shared laughter over coffee on a quiet Sunday morning. Baby's breath, with its many tiny white blooms, drifts through the arrangement, softening the edges and adding an ethereal lightness. Creamy white alstroemeria, delicately flecked with reddish-brown markings, extend slender petals outwards, giving the bouquet movement and grace, like petals caught in a gentle breeze near Roman Road Market. Small clusters of fresh green foliage anchor the colours and enhance the sense of natural abundance. The stems are gathered tightly at the base, clearly visible and neatly trimmed, indicating a skilled hand-tied finish. To the right of the bouquet sits a gleaming white ceramic mug, its rounded handle inviting to the touch. The mug features a watercolor-washed pink heart, inside which the words "WORLD'S BEST" appear in simple black print, while "Mum" is written below in a flowing metallic gold script that brings a subtle, celebratory shimmer. The overall mood is one of warmth, gratitude, and quiet celebration, perfect for same-day delivery to a mum in Old Ford for Mother's Day, her birthday, or any moment when you want to express heartfelt appreciation.
MUM-TASTIC BOUQUET
£70.00
An opulent round bouquet is shown front-on against a bright white background, making its pastel colours and rich textures glow as though lit by soft daylight streaming through an Old Ford townhouse window. At first glance, the eye is drawn to the generous mounds of sky-blue hydrangeas, their countless miniature petals forming pillowy domes that look as airy as summer clouds drifting over Victoria Park. Embracing them are lush pink peonies in various stages of bloom, their ruffled petals layered densely in shades from pale shell pink to richer rose and bubblegum, giving the arrangement a distinctly romantic, almost bridal mood. Standing gracefully above the rounded mass, sleek calla lilies in saturated coral and fuchsia tones curve outward like modern sculptures, adding fluid, vertical lines and a sophisticated flair that contrasts with the softer, more nostalgic flowers. Scattered between these focal blooms are small blush spray roses and creamy garden roses, each bud and blossom offering delicate detail, like whispered notes of sweetness tucked into the composition. Cool, silvery-green dusty miller weaves through the bouquet, its velvety leaves adding a tactile, frosted effect, while darker green foliage anchors the design and keeps the colours from feeling too airy. The stems are gathered tightly at the base, suggesting a hand-tied design ready for delivery to a home near Old Ford Road or a riverside celebration along the Hertford Union Canal. The bouquet gives off an impression of gentle celebration and thoughtful luxury, perfect for anniversaries, baby showers, or simply brightening a special day in the Old Ford community with fresh, beautifully arranged flowers.
SUGAR VELVET
£110.00
A sumptuous hand-tied bouquet is presented against a plain white backdrop, allowing its rich colours and textures to shine as clearly as a bright morning along the canals near Old Ford. The eye is immediately drawn to the Vanda orchids, whose generous petals glow in shades of magenta and fuchsia, each one etched with tiny white checks and speckles that resemble a delicate lace overlay. These orchids are artfully nestled through the arrangement, lending a sense of opulence and modern floral design. Beneath and around them, pillowy mounds of powder-blue hydrangeas create a cloudlike foundation. Each rounded head is formed from myriad petite florets, overlapping softly to build a full, luxurious base that cools the composition visually, like a breath of fresh air drifting from nearby Victoria Park. Among this sea of blue, roses in complementary tones add depth and emotion. Cheerful orange blooms, with petals gently unfurling from tight centres, bring warmth and energy, suggesting celebration and uplifting moments. In contrast, dusty lavender and mauve roses introduce a washed, romantic hue that feels timeless and thoughtful, perfect for heartfelt messages or anniversaries celebrated at home. Slim stems topped with deeper blue, spiky flowers, akin to delphiniums, emerge here and there to add structure, vertical accents, and a slightly wilder touch. Encircling everything, broad, glossy green leaves form a natural frame, highlighting the bouquet's rounded, domed silhouette. At the base, the stems are neatly gathered and tied, their even lengths betraying the precision of a skilled local florist, ideal for same-day delivery across Old Ford for birthdays, congratulations, or stylish thank-you gestures.
SUNSET COLADA
£105.00
A sophisticated floral bouquet is shown against a crisp white backdrop, highlighting every nuance of colour and craftsmanship. Dominating the arrangement are several large Vanda orchids, their petals saturated in rich shades of purple and blue-violet, intricately mottled and veined like fine silk. These exotic blooms bring a sense of tropical drama, while clusters of soft blush-pink roses introduce a romantic, familiar warmth reminiscent of cottage gardens around Old Ford and the canals leading towards Hackney Wick. Among them, creamy ivory spray roses create a cloud-like softness, filling the spaces between the larger heads and giving the bouquet a layered, textured profile. Delicate filler flowers, similar to tiny white asters or daisies, add flickers of brightness, as if scattered stars were resting among the petals. Glossy, dark green foliage supports and frames the flowers, giving structure and depth, while feathery, silver-toned dusty miller leaves bring a cool, velvety contrast that feels almost wintry against the richer colours. Tucked here and there are clusters of white or cream hypericum berries, with smooth, rounded surfaces that catch the light and offer a distinctive, contemporary touch. The stems are elegantly bound at the base with a shimmering silver-purple ribbon, translucent and slightly iridescent, drawing the eye down and completing the composition like the final flourish of a bow. This bouquet's colour harmony of purples, pinks, and whites evokes affection, joy, and calm sophistication, making it perfect for Old Ford flower deliveries to mark anniversaries, Valentine's surprises, Mother's Day tributes, or any moment where you want to send something both striking and deeply thoughtful.
VIOLET SKY
£115.00
An elegant, hand-crafted bouquet stands upright against a pure white backdrop, every detail of the flowers and wrapping clearly visible, as if displayed on a counter in a cosy Old Ford florist just off Old Ford Road. The arrangement centres around creamy white roses, their petals tightly layered and gently curling at the edges, giving an impression of calm, timeless beauty. Surrounding them, deep magenta carnations form rich, textured clusters, their frilled petals adding volume and a sense of rhythm, like the changing colours along the towpath by the Hertford Union Canal. Slender stems of white alstroemeria weave through the composition, each bloom marked with fine pink-red streaks and dark stamens that create a subtle, intricate pattern when viewed close up. Fresh green foliage, including a few leaves with variegated edges, fills the spaces between the flowers, offering a lively contrast to the whites and magentas and making the bouquet appear lush and full. The flowers are gathered into a rounded dome at the top, then taper gracefully as the stems descend, showing the careful hand-tying typical of an experienced local florist. Wrapped first in crisp white paper that forms a neat collar around the blooms, the bouquet is then embraced by a sheer, crinkled layer of purple cellophane, which adds depth, sheen, and a hint of festivity. At the base, a bright green satin ribbon is tied into a small, precise bow, holding a light brown gift tag that suggests a personal message waiting to be written. The overall impression is one of joyful celebration and affection, perfect for delivery to homes near Victoria Park, creative studios around Hackney Wick, or quiet residential streets throughout Old Ford.
BLACKBERRY FUSION
£55.00
A softly lit studio-style photograph showcases a lush hydrangea bouquet that feels as if it has just been carried in from a quiet Old Ford back garden. At the centre, generous domes of hydrangeas in pastel pink, pale sky blue, and clean, creamy white nestle together, each head made up of hundreds of small, overlapping petals that give an almost cushion-like fullness. The colours are gentle yet uplifting, like the first clear morning after rain along the towpath by the River Lea. Between these larger blooms, slender stems of deep fuchsia or magenta waxflower - or a similar filler bloom - weave in and out, their miniature blossoms adding a fine, lacy contrast and flecks of more intense colour. The bouquet is wrapped in a collar of fresh greenery, with broad, dark green hydrangea leaves layered beneath lighter, smaller leaves that soften the edges and help round the composition into a classic, domed shape. All the stems are tightly gathered and tied at the base, creating the look of a hand-tied bouquet ready to be placed into a simple glass vase on a dining table near Old Ford Road or a windowsill overlooking Mile End Park. The white background keeps the focus firmly on the interplay of hues and textures: the pillowy petals, the dainty filler flowers, and the glossy foliage. The arrangement suggests a peaceful yet joyful emotion, making it perfect for birthdays, get-well wishes, or thoughtful congratulations, and it evokes the freshness and care associated with a locally crafted floral gift delivered across Old Ford.
FAIRYTALE BLISS
£60.00
A sophisticated hatbox flower arrangement is pictured against a crisp white backdrop, the dark charcoal container providing a dramatic base for a sweep of golden yellow roses. The roses are densely packed to form a generous dome, each bloom carefully turned so that its spiral of petals faces outward, creating a textured sea of sunlit yellow. Their surfaces appear soft and velvety, as if you could almost feel the gentle give of a petal between your fingers. Rising through this sunny mass are striking stems of Leucadendron 'Safari Sunset', their elongated, pointed bracts in deep burgundy, maroon and russet tones giving the composition a contemporary, architectural edge. The interplay of these rich, wine-red cones against the cheerful yellow roses adds depth and a touch of drama, reminiscent of autumn tones seen along the canal paths and green corners of Old Ford. Around the lower edge of the design, broad glossy green leaves form a structured collar, while light, wispy sprigs of fine, needle-like foliage soften the outline, spilling very slightly over the rim of the box. A slim band of white lace circles the top of the hatbox, the delicate pattern barely visible but enough to introduce a note of romance and hand-crafted care. The image is bright, with soft, even lighting that enhances the natural colour of the blooms without glare. This arrangement feels perfect for same-day flower delivery to a stylish flat near Old Ford Road or a studio close to Fish Island, offering a thoughtful way to mark a promotion, housewarming, or simple "thinking of you" moment with colour that feels both bold and welcoming.
BOX OF SUNSHINE
£115.00
A lavish, hand-gathered bouquet of mixed roses sits against a clean white field, its dome-shaped silhouette full of movement and texture. Sunlit yellow roses radiate cheer at the front, paired with creamy pale roses that temper the palette, while a sweeping spectrum of pinks - from whispering blush to punchy fuchsia and delicate two-toned pink-and-white edges - gives the arrangement a joyous, romantic energy. Rich burgundy and deep crimson blooms are clustered like small punctuation marks, and clusters of miniature spray roses and tight buds add rhythm and a sense of unfolding optimism. The petals are soft and silky to the eye, their surfaces catching a gentle, dewy sheen; the fragrance reads fresh with a light citrus lift that feels clean and uplifting. Dark green, glossy foliage (probably ruscus or salal) weaves through the roses, creating depth and a leafy frame that makes each colour pop against the white background. At the stems the bouquet is neatly tied with a wide red satin ribbon formed into a graceful bow with long tails, and a small white gift tag bearing the words "Happy Holidays" and a stylised logo is tucked into the knot - a tender, seasonal flourish. The overall impression is celebratory and affectionate, a bouquet that would travel well by hand or delivery to neighbours around Old Ford, Roman Road and Mile End, and that sits equally at home on a birthday table, an anniversary nightstand, or as a heartfelt festive greeting.
CRAZY IN LOVE
£69.00
A lush, vibrant bouquet, brimming with the gentle spirit of Old Ford, invites the senses to linger in its intricacy. Nestled at the heart, soft lavender roses unfurl with quiet confidence, their subtle fragrance hinting at early spring mornings by the Regent's Canal. Bright fuchsia Gerbera daisies, instantly recognisable with their sunny open faces and deep central eyes, create a joyful contrast, radiating positivity like the morning sun over Roman Road. Richly hued magenta chrysanthemums and plum-tinted daisy-like blooms spiral outwards, their plush petals and subtle yellow-green eyes adding both dimension and a playful touch of wildness. Sprigs of fine white Gypsophila thread through the arrangement, their tiny blossoms resembling a whisper of clouds drifting across the sky, softening the bouquet with a dreamy, airy delicacy. Deep green, glossy leaves peep from beneath, grounding the vivid array and recalling the parks and garden squares scattered through Old Ford. The bouquet's sturdy, rounded composition rests in a clear, thick glass vase adorned with a textured, ice-like pattern, its tactile artistry nodding to Old Ford's traditional craftsmanship. A rustic twine tie and a crisp white tag add the final, tactile flourish-ready for a personalised note. Whether delivered as a gift for a cherished birthday, heartfelt gratitude, or to infuse a home near Wick Road with colour and scent, this arrangement is a testament to expert local floral design.
DAY BRIGHTENER

DEVOTION
DEVOTION
£57.00
This densely packed bouquet of mixed roses reads as a small garden captured and tied by hand. Large, fully opened roses in blush pink form the soft heart of the arrangement, their petals thin and satiny, while hot magenta or deep fuchsia roses provide bold counterpoints that draw the eye and lift the mood. Subtle lavender roses introduce a cool, gentle note, and creamy white blooms reflect light like porcelain, creating a quiet luminosity across the dome of flowers. Nestled throughout are tiny clusters of spray roses in warm ivory and pale yellow, which break up the larger shapes and add a layered, textural rhythm. Glossy, dark green leaves - the kind of ruscus or salal we use for structure in our bouquets - peek between blooms, their tapered forms creating movement and a sense of lush fullness. The stems are neatly bound and finished with a wide, soft pink satin ribbon tied into a generous bow, the ribbon's smooth surface catching highlights and adding a handcrafted flourish. There is a gentle, rosy scent here, tempered by the crisp green note of the foliage, and the whole composition feels celebratory yet refined. As a florist serving Old Ford, Mile End, and the markets around Roman Road, I imagine this bouquet brightening a birthday table, marking an anniversary, or offering a tender thank-you - a versatile gift that reads as both joyful and thoughtfully composed, ready for local delivery across the neighbourhood.
GLAMOUR
£67.00
Captured against a pristine white backdrop, this bouquet reads as an intentional study in contrast and texture, built from three primary elements that together feel both modern and timeless. The composition is anchored by large, billowy clusters of bright sky-blue hydrangeas - each cluster made of countless small petals overlapping to form a plush, almost cloud-like mass that provides generous volume and a cool, calming hue. Nestled deliberately within that blue are three intensely red roses, their tight, velvety spirals creating points of visual heat and classic romance that punctuate the arrangement. Fine sprays of white baby's breath are threaded through the bouquet like sparking breath, offering delicate negative space and a featherlike texture that softens the transitions between the dominant flowers. Muted, round eucalyptus leaves weave through the blossoms, their silvery-green tone adding depth, a subtle aromatic note and a botanical counterpoint to the saturated colours. The flowers are presented in a clear glass vase with a gently curved silhouette; you can see green stems in water, which underscores the freshness and care in construction. Bathed in bright, neutral light, the colours read true and saturated, making this piece ideal for a celebration, a heartfelt anniversary, or to brighten a dining table for guests. From a local perspective, this arrangement would sit beautifully in a home close to Roman Road market or beside a bench in Victoria Park, where the cool blues and warm reds echo the changing sky and the energy of East London gatherings.
I CHERISH YOU
£80.00
A refined, romantic arrangement photographed on a crisp white background, anchored by one large, fully open creamy white Oriental lily placed slightly forward to draw the eye. Its soft, pristine petals unfurl around pale yellow stamens and a faint green pistil, while a surrounding chorus of closed and partially opened lily buds in lime-green and creamy yellow adds density and the sense of unfolding life. Nestled among these are small, velvety red rosebuds, mostly still in their tight stages, offering concentrated flashes of passionate colour that contrast beautifully with the lighter blossoms. The floral shapes are supported by an abundant mix of greens: deep, glossy lily leaves create a dark, structured backdrop; long, arching palm-style fronds in a brighter emerald hue introduce sweeping motion; and scattered eucalyptus sprigs with their rounded, silvery leaves lend a cool, refined texture. All stems rest in a clear cylindrical glass vase, the water and pale green stalks visible through the glass, which reinforces the bouquet's freshness and simple elegance. As a local florist arranging for neighbours around Victoria Park and Roman Road Market, I picture this piece delivered with care across Old Ford, carrying a scent that is soft, slightly powdery from the lilies, warmed by the rose's richer perfume. The composition suggests celebration and sincere affection - fitting for anniversaries, birthdays, or as an elegant centrepiece - yet its cool palette and structured foliage also lend a composed dignity suitable for sympathy. Crafted with attentive layering of colour and texture, this bouquet reflects both classical romance and the quiet, hands-on expertise you'd expect from a small East London shop.
INSPIRATION
£65.00
Bathed in crisp studio light against a pure white field, this densely packed bouquet reads as both sophisticated and delightfully spirited - the kind of arrangement we create for shoppers wandering from Old Ford Road toward Victoria Park. Dominant magenta Gerbera daisies command attention with their saturated, almost fuchsia petals and defined dark discs, each bloom presenting a cheerful, graphic face. Creamy white roses unfurl nearby, their layered petals smooth and velvety, offering a timeless romantic counterpoint to the gerberas' exuberance. Threads of deep purple Alstroemeria bring an exotic, textured richness: trumpet-like petals, fine speckles, and streaks that reward a closer look. The greenery is generous and varied - broad glossy leaves, slender sword-like fronds, and softer filler foliage - creating a sculpted, rounded silhouette while introducing subtle contrasts of sheen and shadow. A clear glass vase is discernible at the base, minimalist and transparent, anchoring the arrangement without distracting from the blooms. As an East London florist familiar with local rhythms, I can imagine this piece brightening a kitchen table on Parnell Road or greeting a visitor arriving from Bow; its colour harmony suits celebratory moments as well as thoughtful, everyday gifting. There is an implied scent profile: cool green notes with faint floral sweetness, and a tactile richness from the layered petals and glossy leaves. Crafted with professional care, this bouquet - available for delivery across Old Ford and neighbouring streets when requested - radiates freshness, joyous colour, and considered design, ideal for anniversaries, thank-you gestures, or a cheery home accent.
MESMERIZING HARMONY
£49.00
A refined bouquet of hydrangeas and foliage is captured against a spotless white background, the entire arrangement forming a generous, rounded dome that seems to float in the frame like a serene cloud above the streets of Old Ford. In the middle, a voluminous creamy white hydrangea takes pride of place, its tightly layered petals giving an impression of softness and abundance, as though you could sink your fingers into its downy surface. Encircling this central bloom are several large clusters of pastel blue hydrangeas, their petals washed in gentle sky tones that call to mind clear afternoons walking along the towpaths near the River Lea. Interspersed among them, pale lime-green hydrangea heads introduce a fresh, almost zesty brightness, echoing new leaves unfolding in local gardens off Roman Road.   

The flowers are framed and supported by a rich mix of greenery. Distinctive eucalyptus stems arc outward, displaying round, silvery-green leaves that soften the composition and add a cool, modern touch, while evoking a subtle, soothing fragrance. Deeper green foliage, some leaves smooth and glossy, others more textured and matte, weave through the hydrangea heads, providing contrast, structure, and a sense of depth that prevents the bouquet from feeling flat. At the base, multiple straight green stems are gathered firmly and tied, revealing the hand-tied style often prepared for same-day delivery around Old Ford. The clean studio lighting ensures that every nuance of colour-from creamy white to soft blue and lively chartreuse-is clearly defined, giving the bouquet a peaceful yet uplifting mood suited to birthdays, housewarmings, or quiet moments of appreciation shared with loved ones in the local community.
MOONLIGHT PATH
£60.00
Against a crisp white backdrop, this hand-tied bouquet appears almost to glow, its colours and shapes carefully balanced in a way that feels both modern and timeless. At the heart of the design are several pink roses, their petals gently unfurling in tight, layered spirals that suggest tenderness and affection, like a quiet moment shared in a tucked-away Old Ford café. Around them, bright yellow gerbera daisies radiate outward, their open faces and deep brown centres adding a joyful, optimistic mood, reminiscent of morning sunshine over nearby Mile End Park. Taller than the rest, elegant stems of deep blue delphiniums rise in vertical clusters, each dotted with multiple small, star-like florets that lend height and a cool counterpoint to the warm pinks and yellows below. Lush greenery supports and frames the blooms: airy fern fronds spill softly from the lower edges, while bold, glossy tropical-style leaves, some delicately striped in lighter green, curve protectively around the base of the flower heads to form a natural green collar. Nestled between the main blooms, bright green textured filler foliage adds depth and gentle movement, as if echoing the layered planting in Old Ford's urban gardens. Fine, light green stems tipped with promising buds extend lightly above the bouquet, hinting at flowers still to open. The gathered stems are clearly visible and tightly bound, wrapped with pale cream or light green paper and secured with a simple tie, evoking the feel of a freshly picked posy carried home from a local market. The bouquet radiates happiness, support, and celebration, suited to birthdays, congratulations, or simply brightening a home anywhere across Old Ford and the surrounding East London streets.
NATURAL POETRY
£60.00
From the heart of East London, this modern, round pale-pink box cradles a lush dome of roses. The box sits in the lower third of the frame, its soft matte finish catching the light with a gentle, almost suede-like glow. The bouquet comprises 30 to 40 roses in a bright, sunny yellow, their petals just unfurling to reveal a fresh, luminous core. Interspersed throughout are burgundy or deep purple roses, their velvety surfaces providing a regal counterpoint and a sense of refined drama to the arrangement. The roses are packed tightly, creating a plush silhouette that seems to rise beyond the rim of the box. The white background makes every hue sing, from the lemony brightness of the yellow blooms to the wine-dark accents of the burgundy roses. Slight greens peek through, but the design favors color purity, letting the two tones keep company without distraction. The box appears to be soft-touch, perhaps velvet, and the craftsmanship of the bouquet feels deliberate and confident, as if a seasoned East London florist designed it with a pianist's precision. This piece is ideal for generous celebrations-birthdays, anniversaries, or a heartfelt thank-you-delivered with stylish ease to homes around Old Ford, Mile End, or Victoria Park. It embodies a modern, sophisticated gifting aesthetic that suits contemporary interiors while carrying a warm, human touch.
SUNLIT BEAUTY
£110.00
In this hand-crafted floral arrangement, the sunflowers are the undisputed stars, their golden faces spread wide in a clear spherical vase that sits serenely on a white backdrop. Each blossom seems to soak in the East End morning sun, much like the vibrant parks of Old Ford on a bright summer's day. Nestled among their radiant petals, the tightly spiraled yellow garden roses exude a buttery warmth, lending a touch of refined charm and familiarity. Sprigs of feathery ferns and delicate green filler arch gracefully, mirroring the untamed beauty found in local Hackney Marshes, while airy blue-green eucalyptus leaves and light green spikes evoke the wild hedgerows near the canal. Pops of glossy red Hypericum berries are interspersed, their cheerful glint recalling lively market days around Roman Road. In the water-filled glass vase, the intricate architecture of tucked stems creates a sense of structure and transparency, grounding the bouquet in clarity. The arrangement emanates an atmosphere of cheer-its fragrance hints at countryside mornings and sunlit outdoors. Designed for those joyful moments-be it birthdays on Chisenhale Road or family gatherings around St. Stephen's Green-this bouquet brings a genuine sense of togetherness. At Florist Old Ford, we craft each piece to brighten not just rooms but also the days of our neighbours across E3, celebrating community and the beauty of late summer in every petal.
SUNNY FIELDS
£70.00
Radiating a burst of cheer and vitality, this vivid Gerbera daisy bouquet reflects the lively pace of Old Ford's canal-side neighborhoods. Large, eye-catching blossoms in sunny yellow, electric orange, and passionate magenta rise above a cushion of deep green foliage, their colors echoing the vibrancy of community gardens scattered throughout East London. Every flower's distinctive deep brown center adds dramatic contrast, setting off the luminous petals that seem to shimmer beneath gentle, diffused daylight. Encasing the bouquet, textured brown kraft paper and glossy cellophane form an elegant shell, providing a rustic yet polished finish and cradling the arrangement with loving care. At the heart, visible through the vase's crystal clarity, stems are gathered and bound with a natural fiber twine, from which dangles a simple gift tag-decorated with a classic rose motif, the mark of a skilled florist. Water pooled at the base keeps each stem fresh, assuring a longer enjoyment whether displayed in a home off Wick Road or sent as a heartwarming gesture to a friend near Mile End. This arrangement, meticulously crafted for texture and balance, channels celebration-its palette and form ideal for birthdays, thank-yous, or simply brightening an Old Ford morning. The scent of fresh-cut blooms lingers invitingly, making it a thoughtful floral gift or centerpiece that embodies the welcoming character and creative flair of the area.
SUNNY GARDEN
£49.00
A lush, rounded bouquet of bi-colour roses fills the centre of the frame, set against a smooth, snow-white background that makes every petal stand out with striking clarity. Around a dozen roses, all fully bloomed, are gathered closely so their layered petals overlap in a soft, abundant cluster, like a glowing orb of colour. At the heart of each flower, a clear, bright yellow radiates outward into warm tangerine and deep marmalade orange, with the outermost petals in places touched by a hint of red-orange, reminiscent of sunset skies over Old Ford's towpaths. The roses are encircled by generous, deep green leaves with a gentle sheen, their serrated edges and visible veins adding texture and contrast to the smooth, velvety petals. Below the blossoms, a neat bundle of dark green stems is visible, carefully aligned as if just tied by an experienced florist preparing a delivery to a home off Parnell Road or a celebration near the Hertford Union Canal. The light is soft and even, so the colours appear rich but not harsh, giving the bouquet a warm, inviting presence that suggests happiness, encouragement, and heartfelt congratulations. It is easy to imagine this arrangement placed on a kitchen table in Old Ford, bringing a burst of sunshine into the room, perfect for birthdays, romantic surprises, or simply sending a bright message of "thinking of you" on an ordinary day.
SUNRISE
£60.00
Imagine a couture bouquet tucked into a plush round hatbox painted in the softest pink-a contemporary treasure from Florist Old Ford, designed to enchant the streets around Old Ford and Mile End. The roses are packed tightly, creating a dense sculpted tapestry that looks almost couture in its finish. Colors sweep in a joyful wave: sunny yellows melt into bright coral pinks, deepen into rich burgundy and magenta, then float through gentle blush tones and bi-colors that graduate to creamy white at the edges. Each bud is perfectly formed, with satin-smooth petals and a whisper of scent that teases the senses without overpowering the room. The overall effect is modern yet inviting, a gift that feels equally suited to birthdays, anniversaries, or a spontaneous celebration with friends. The round hatbox itself adds a contemporary twist, a tactile contrast to the floral abundance and a hint of luxe home decor. The image's white backdrop emphasizes the bouquet's colour story and craftsmanship, a signature of true floristry skill.

SWEET EXTRAVAGANZA
£99.00
As a dedicated florist deeply rooted in Old Ford, I take pride in assembling gifts that stir the soul, and this bouquet of coral and peach roses is a luminous testament to that passion. Each carefully selected bloom reveals a gentle cascade from golden-yellow or cream centres into sunset hues of salmon, coral, and lively pink, creating a sense of natural movement through the bouquet-like the sophisticated glow of late summer evenings by the River Lea. The verdant green foliage framing the roses is glossy and full, reminiscent of the greenery found in the nearby Grove Hall Park, its freshness catching soft daylight. With velvety petals and sculpted leaves, the flowers promise sensory delight that goes beyond sight, inviting touch and evoking memories of laughter-filled celebrations. Below this exuberant display lies a pouch of Thorntons Orange Crisp chocolates-a creamy package emblazoned with elegant branding-accompanied by two dark, glossy truffles. Their rich chocolate scent conjures anticipation of sweet, citrus-kissed indulgence, harmonising beautifully with the floral aroma. Presenting both beauty and flavour, this arrangement is crafted for life's heartfelt moments, whether marking an anniversary, gifting a loved one, or comforting a friend in Old Ford with an expression of artistry, warmth, and genuine care.
