I imagine presenting this bouquet on a small Shadwell kitchen table, the colours reflecting the soft morning light that slips in from the canal. Three intense fuchsia gerbera daisies dominate the view, each with a ring of radiating petals and a pronounced dark centre that adds a touch of drama to the otherwise gentle palette. Nestled alongside, dusty-rose lavender-pink roses curl inward in neat, fresh spirals - young blooms with velvety petals that suggest closeness and care. Interspersed are sprigs of purple statice, their tiny blossoms adding papery texture and a cool counterpoint to the warm pink tones, like little notes of wildflower tucked into a cultivated posy. The greenery is generous and thoughtfully placed: broad leaves resembling salal or eucalyptus create a deep green canvas that enhances the bloom colours and lends a hint of dewy, herbal fragrance. The bouquet is wrapped for gifting, with a soft, matte pale pink tissue paper forming the inner cradle and a sheer, crinkled fuchsia-pink cellophane layered on top to introduce a subtle shimmer and modern finish. At the base the clear glass vase rim is visible, suggesting the stems are ready to meet water and brighten any room immediately. This arrangement balances playful colour with graceful form - ideal for celebrating birthdays, anniversaries or as a welcoming gift after a stroll from Shadwell Basin toward Cable Street - conveying affection, freshness and deliberate floral craft.

A lively hand-tied bouquet of pinks and purples set against a clean white background, arranged to brighten a bedside table or a kitchen counter in Shadwell. Three vibrant fuchsia gerbera daisies take centre stage, their many radiating petals forming bold, sun-like heads and contrasting sharply with deep black-brown centres that give each bloom a confident, graphic focal point. Swirling around these are several tightly furled roses in a soft lavender-pink, the dusty-rose tones suggesting fresh, just-opened buds with velvety layers that catch the light. Sprays of tiny purple statice are tucked between the larger flowers, their papery clusters adding delicate texture and a cool, complementary note to the warm pinks. Lush greenery - broad salal or eucalyptus-like leaves - forms a verdant backdrop, providing fullness, structure and a faintly herbaceous scent that balances the sweetness of the roses. The bouquet is artfully wrapped for gifting: an inner layer of matte pale pink tissue cradles the stems, while a sheer, slightly crinkled fuchsia-pink cellophane overlays the paper, creating a subtle shimmer and reinforcing the pink palette. The lower edge reveals the top rim of a clear glass vase, hinting that this arrangement is ready for immediate display. In soft, natural light the petals show gentle sheen and shadow, the composition reading as cheerful, affectionate and deliberately composed. Perfect for saying 'happy birthday', 'thank you' or 'thinking of you', this arrangement radiates optimism and warmth - a compact celebration of colour designed to lift spirits around Shadwell and the nearby Docklands. A hand-tied bouquet sits upright in a clear cylindrical glass vase, the bundled stems visible through the water and tied simply with rustic twine from which a small white rectangular tag hangs, stamped with a delicate pink-and-green rose logo. The arrangement is a joyful study in pink: several large gerbera daisies in a striking fuchsia pink stand out first, their dark, almost black centers creating a bold focal point against the luminous petals. Around them, soft pink roses appear in different stages of opening-some unfurling in layered, velvet spirals, others held tight and elegant as buds-introducing a softer, romantic counterpoint to the gerberas. Deep purple-blue clusters of statice or similar filler weave through the composition, adding fine texture and gentle punctuation that pulls the eye inward. Rich green foliage, from broad, smooth leaves to slender stems, creates a verdant backdrop and adds height and movement, lending the bouquet depth and a sense of natural vitality. The blooms are wrapped in sheer, crinkled pink cellophane that graduates from an almost translucent pastel halo at the top to a richer, more saturated pink around the base, catching the light and giving the whole piece a celebratory sheen. A subtle floral scent seems to rise from the cluster-fresh, sweet, and slightly green-like a morning visit to a neighbourhood flower stall. I imagine this piece brightening a windowsill in Shadwell, near the Basin, or arriving at a birthday or small anniversary with warmth and charm. As a florist, I picture it conveying cheer, appreciation, and a handcrafted touch that feels intimate and unmistakably local.

    I ordered a large bouquet from them to surprise my wife and it was a grand success. Their flowers always look like they’ve just been cut from the garden and they are cleverly arranged in stylish, attention-grabbing displays. 5 out of 5 stars, easily!

    Hadn’t used Handy Flowers before as I live abroad but needed to send some flowers to a relative. Was incredibly pleased with the service received and even though I didn’t see the flowers, I was told they were beautiful.
