CHEAP FLOWERS
A radiant mixed flower bouquet fills the frame against a spotless white background, its colours and textures glowing as if lit by soft North London daylight. The arrangement is shaped into a generous, rounded dome, the sort of hand-tied design a Highgate florist might recommend for a birthday brunch on Swain's Lane or a cosy get-together overlooking Hampstead Heath. Dominating the centre are several fully opened roses with a beautiful bi-colour effect: their cores are bright, sunny yellow, gently melting into rich orange and finally into delicate reddish-orange at the tips, giving each bloom a sunset-like warmth. Woven closely around them are white daisy-style chrysanthemums, each flower crisp and clean, with a vivid lime-green disk at its centre that adds a refreshing pop, like new grass after rain. Interspersed through this white and yellow harmony are clusters of deep magenta and fuchsia chrysanthemums, their tightly packed petals forming plush, rounded heads with yellow-green centres that echo the daisies while adding depth and intensity. Glossy, dark green foliage peeks between the flowers, framing the blossoms and enhancing the lush, garden-fresh appearance, as if they have just been picked from a hidden courtyard off Highgate Hill. The stems are neatly gathered and bound at the bottom, their cut ends visible and tidy against the plain background, highlighting the care taken in the hand-tying. This bouquet radiates happiness and gratitude, ideal for marking new beginnings, sending congratulations to a neighbour, or lifting the mood of a home near Waterlow Park with a vivid splash of colour and life.
BERRY BURST
£43.00
There is a graceful serenity to this bouquet, as if cut fresh from an English-style border on a soft morning. At its centre, pale blush roses with petal-soft layers create a romantic, tactile focus; around them, sprays of delicate white flowers - perhaps waxflower or small lisianthus - form airy punctuation that keeps the design light. Dusty, blue-green eucalyptus leaves tuck in among the blooms, their rounded silhouettes and subtle fragrance lending a cool, calming tone. Small clusters of white berries are scattered through the arrangement, offering a crisp, textural contrast to the roses' velvet, while occasional deeper pink or burgundy florets add pockets of depth. Tall, narrow flower spikes peek from the left and right, giving the bouquet a graceful vertical lift and a hand-gathered silhouette. The stems are gathered and tied with a pale cream ribbon, the neat knot visible at the base, and the whole rests in soft daylight that enhances the natural hues. Texturally, the bouquet balances velvet petals, waxy berries, and gently crinkled foliage in a way that feels both refined and approachable. This is the kind of arrangement we prepare for new homes, thoughtful get-well wishes, or a milestone birthday - simple, comforting, and quietly elegant. Curated with seasonal attention for customers around Highgate Village, Waterlow Park and the nearby lanes, it translates local floral availability into a bouquet that smells faintly of eucalyptus and summer mornings, and carries the kind of understated confidence an experienced Highgate maker aims to deliver.
FLORIST CHOICE £50
£50.00
Set against a stark white field that makes each hue sing, this compact round bouquet blends exuberant colour with classic form in a way Highgate neighbours will recognise from local market stalls near Highgate Village and the Pond. Several vivid magenta Gerbera daisies take visual priority; their saturated, almost fuchsia petals radiate outward from dark, intricately textured centres that add a cheerful graphic punch. Interleaved among them are creamy white roses, petals layered and soft to the touch, offering a cool, romantic counterpoint that evokes the quiet elegance of a Hampstead parterre. Deep purple Alstroemeria (Peruvian lilies) thread through the arrangement, trumpet-shaped with delicate speckles and streaks that provide a lovely, detailed contrast to the solid gerbera faces. The greenery is generous and varied - broad glossy leaves that catch the light, with narrower, sword-like foliage that introduces vertical rhythm and a slightly wild, garden-fresh feel. A whisper of a clear glass vase is visible at the bottom, grounding the bouquet on its white stage. As a local florist I imagine the scent of the roses as a soft note beneath the cleaner green aroma of the foliage; the overall effect is bright, modern, and comforting. This bouquet would travel well across Highgate and nearby Hampstead Heath addresses, serving as a birthday offering, an uplifting get-well gift, or a thoughtful token to mark an anniversary. For a personalised finish, Highgate Florist can adjust the emphasis between bold gerberas and tender roses to suit the intended sentiment.
MESMERIZING HARMONY
£49.00
A hand-crafted maternity bouquet stands out clearly against a bright white background, its colours and textures composed with care. The focal blooms are bold fuchsia gerbera daisies, each one a flat disk of vivid petals surrounding a dark, velvety centre that draws the eye inward. Between them, blush-pink roses nestle closely, some tightly furled like little secrets, others beginning to loosen into spirals of soft petals that catch the light with a gentle sheen. Threaded through the arrangement, clusters of tiny purple filler flowers add a soft cloud of colour and a lightly crinkled texture, creating a charming contrast with the smoothness of the roses and the graphic simplicity of the gerberas. Fresh green foliage encircles the blooms, bringing depth and structure, with long, slender leaves and broader pieces of greenery that help form a rounded, balanced dome, much like the classic bouquets prepared daily by Highgate Florist for new parents around Archway Road and Highgate Village. The stems are neatly bound and wrapped in layered pink tissue paper, from pale blush to brighter, candy-like tones, which fan out around the base like a ruffled skirt. A protective outer layer of clear cellophane adds a glossy finish and a sense of occasion, suggesting the bouquet is ready for same-day delivery to a baby shower or maternity ward. Leaning against the base is a round foil balloon in brilliant pink, edged with subtle scalloping and dusted with playful white polka dots. Across its centre, the joyful message "Mum to Be!" appears in flowing white script, and between the words sits a charming heart motif: a white outline cradling a smaller solid pink heart, echoing the idea of a little life held within a mother's love.
MUM TO BE
£60.00
A carefully composed bouquet celebrating white and green tones, presented upright against a plain white background so every texture and hue is visible. The arrangement centers on abundant white, daisy-like chrysanthemums whose layered petals fan out around soft yellow discs, creating a cheerful but restrained halo of light; these are balanced by several upright, pale green lily buds - some with subtle striping - that sit poised to open, introducing an element of quiet anticipation. Scattered among and between the larger blooms are clouds of tiny baby's breath (Gypsophila), their minute, airy blossoms lending a misty softness that cushions and lightens the denser flowers. Lush, deep green foliage frames the bouquet, providing contrast and a natural, supportive silhouette. The stems are hand-gathered and wrapped first in natural, crinkled brown kraft paper for an organic, tactile feel, then encased in a transparent cellophane layer that protects while letting the arrangement shine; the wrapping is neatly folded and tied at the base to form a tidy stand. There is a subtle, clean scent - a delicate green freshness with faint floral notes - and an overall impression of sincerity and calm. A local floral maker might picture packaging this after a morning run through Highgate Village or a quiet stroll past Highgate Wood; the bouquet conveys warmth and restraint suitable for birthdays, new beginnings, sympathy, or simply to say 'thinking of you'. This version was envisioned with the care and neighbourhood knowledge characteristic of Highgate Florist.
PURE ELEGANCE
£65.00
In this image, a rounded bouquet packed with yellow, white, and fuchsia flowers sits proudly in a simple white square box, the entire piece photographed against a clear white background that lets the colours sing. The design has the polished look of an arrangement prepared by an experienced Highgate florist, with each bloom nestled closely to its neighbour to form a smooth dome. Warm yellow dominates the centre, where large, plush chrysanthemums and clusters of yellow spray roses create a sunlit focal point. Some roses appear as tight buds, their petals wrapped closely together, while others are slightly more open, inviting the eye into delicate spirals of rich colour. Threaded between these sunny tones are crisp white flowers: small daisy-like heads with bright green centres that bring a playful simplicity, and larger, fluffy white chrysanthemums that add a soft, cloud-like feel. These lighter blooms calm the composition, giving the brighter colours space to breathe. Across this foundation of yellow and white, vivid fuchsia and magenta chrysanthemums are placed in considered bursts, their multi-layered petals sometimes shaded with hints of pale pink. These stronger hues add energy and a contemporary twist, reminiscent of the vibrant arts scene around Highgate and nearby Crouch End. Small pink and yellow rosebuds peek out among the petals, hinting at new blossoms yet to fully unfold. At the base and between clusters, deep green foliage with a gentle sheen provides structure and contrast, framing the bouquet and grounding its colour. The white cube box that serves as a container is clean-lined and modern, echoing the style of many refurbished homes off Swain's Lane. Together, flowers and box create a joyful gift, perfect for a birthday surprise, a get-well wish delivered near Highgate Village, or a bright centrepiece for an intimate dinner table.
SPARKLING EYES
£50.00
Presented against a clear white background, this abundant chrysanthemum bouquet appears as if it has just been finished by an experienced florist in Highgate, the colours and textures glowing in the soft studio light. The design centres on large, open chrysanthemum blooms in shades of pure white and creamy off-white, their numerous fine petals radiating out in gentle curves from subtle pale-green and buttery-yellow hearts, giving the arrangement a plush and cushioned look. Around and between them, sprays of smaller white chrysanthemums, daisy-like and airy, add intricacy and movement, their modest flowers creating a sense of lightness that keeps the bouquet from feeling heavy despite its fullness. Punctuating this sea of white are bold lime-green pompon chrysanthemums, perfectly round and tightly textured like little velvet buttons, their vivid tones echoing the fresh greens you might see on a stroll up to Hampstead Heath. Deep green foliage frames the base and edges of the bouquet, adding natural structure and a woodland richness that makes the whites appear even cleaner. All the stems are gathered into a hand-tied arrangement, neatly aligned and bound firmly with a wide lime-green satin ribbon at the base, shaped into a multi-looped bow whose sheen and colour resonate with the bright pompon mums above. The bouquet conveys a sense of quiet celebration and hope, ideal for sending best wishes on a new home near Highgate Wood, offering gentle comfort at a time of loss, or simply bringing an elegant piece of nature into a living room, office, or dining table where its soft whites and lively greens can be appreciated throughout the day.
