BERRY BURST
£43.00
Overflowing with the joyful hues of Friern Barnet, this deliciously vibrant bouquet showcases a rich blend of freshly cut roses and chrysanthemums arranged with the utmost care. The soft, apricot-peach roses spiral open, their petals velvety and luminous, glowing with warmth reminiscent of the late afternoon sunlight in Friary Park. Interspersed within, you'll find playful clusters of chrysanthemums-some pure white and daisy-like with refreshing green hearts, others boasting dramatic magenta and purple petals around zesty lime-green centers, as if capturing the eclectic spirit of local North London gardens. Polished, dark green foliage cradles each bloom, accentuating the colours and lending a sense of lush, natural abundance. Emanating from the base, a flourish of bright tangerine-orange wrapping-crinkled and translucent-lends a cheerful pop of colour and marks the bouquet as a truly festive offering. Completing the silhouette, delicate streaks of bear grass arch gracefully across the top, introducing a hint of modern design. Created by experienced florists familiar with the Friern Barnet neighbourhood, this arrangement is not just a gift, but a celebration in itself-perfect for marking birthdays or milestones, or simply spreading happiness with every delivery. One can almost sense the laughter and warmth in the air, as if the bouquet brings the community's friendly spirit indoors.
HONEYMOON
£55.00
Presented against a clear white backdrop, this rounded chrysanthemum bouquet looks as though it has just been lifted from the workbench of an experienced Friern Barnet florist, every stem thoughtfully placed. The dominant impression is a soothing blend of white, ivory, and fresh green hues, with the larger chrysanthemums opening in broad, layered petals that feel almost velvety to the eye. Their centres, tinged with soft green and buttery cream, create subtle depth and draw the gaze gently inward. Scattered between them are clusters of delicate white spray chrysanthemums, smaller daisy-like blooms that soften any sharp edges and give the arrangement a light, breathable feel, much like a quiet stroll around the leafy corners near Friary Park. Bright lime-green pompon chrysanthemums punctuate the design, each one a tight, spherical button of colour, adding playful rhythm and texture while still harmonising with the calmer tones. Around and beneath the blooms, deep green foliage adds structure, framing the flowers with a natural, garden-fresh feel. The stems gather neatly at the base, their clean lines bound by a wide lime-green satin ribbon tied into a generous, multi-looped bow that gleams softly under the light. The contrast of the vivid ribbon against the white background echoes the bouquet's balance of serenity and energy. This arrangement would suit a kitchen table on a quiet Friern Barnet morning or serve as a graceful gift for congratulations, sympathy, or a simple "thinking of you," its colours suggesting renewal, peace, and gentle optimism.

MARVELOUS BLOOMS
MARVELOUS BLOOMS
£63.00
A lush hand-tied bouquet of hydrangeas and greenery is shown in full view against a spotless white background, the kind of clean studio style often used by Friern Barnet Flowers to showcase their designs. Dominating the centre is a generous, domed head of creamy white hydrangea, its mass of tiny, four-petalled florets clustering together in a soft, cloud-like globe. This central bloom is flanked by several rounded heads of pastel blue hydrangeas, their petals gently shifting in tone from powder blue to a slightly cooler, mistier shade, evoking the soft light that filters through gardens near Friary Park after a summer shower. Nestled among them, lime and chartreuse-tinted hydrangeas introduce notes of fresh green, suggesting new growth and the first tender leaves of spring along Friern Barnet Lane. A rich collar of foliage surrounds and threads through the hydrangeas. Distinctive eucalyptus stems, with their silvery-green, coin-shaped leaves, arc gracefully from the bouquet, bringing a muted, modern touch and the suggestion of their clean, herbal scent. Interwoven with these are deeper green leaves, some with a glossy surface and more pointed tips, likely ruscus or another sturdy filler, providing contrast and structure so the softer hydrangea heads appear even more billowy. The stems, visible at the bottom, are gathered tightly and tied, confirming the bouquet is hand-crafted and ready to drop straight into a simple glass vase on a Friern Barnet kitchen table or office reception. Even, shadowless lighting enhances the subtle textures of the petals and the varied greens of the foliage, creating an impression of freshness, calm, and understated elegance that would suit a housewarming, anniversary, or sympathy delivery within the local neighbourhood.
MOONLIGHT PATH
£60.00
Displayed against a clean white background, this hand-crafted bouquet captures the look of a bright spring morning along the residential streets of Friern Barnet. At the centre, plump pink roses unfurl their soft, layered petals, each bloom carrying a gentle blush tone that suggests affection and quiet celebration. Nestled beside them, golden yellow gerbera daisies with dark chocolate-brown eyes bring an immediate sense of joy, their open faces reminiscent of sunshine breaking through the trees in nearby Friary Park. Stretching vertically through the arrangement, elegant stems of cobalt- and violet-blue delphiniums create a cool column of colour, their many small florets giving depth and a slightly wild, garden-inspired character. Around this colourful core, a tapestry of foliage is carefully arranged: bright, mossy-looking green filler flowers cluster between the larger blooms, while fine, airy fern fronds soften the edges and give the bouquet a relaxed, natural silhouette. Broad, lacquered-looking tropical leaves curve around the lower part of the flowers, some displaying fine lighter stripes that add subtle detail when they catch the light. From the top of the bouquet, a few slim green stems tipped with tiny buds stretch upward, adding an airy lightness and hinting that more colour is still to come. The stems are expertly gathered and bound, wrapped in a pale cream or muted green paper with a simple tie that underscores the hand-tied craftsmanship you might expect from a trusted local Friern Barnet florist. Overall, the bouquet radiates happiness and warmth, ideal for marking milestones, sending encouragement, or brightening a home with a splash of local floral artistry.
NATURAL POETRY
£60.00
Set against a crisp white background, this hand-tied bouquet feels like a small, carefully composed garden gathered from the quieter corners of Friern Barnet, perhaps after a peaceful stroll near Friary Park. At its heart, generous garden roses in blush pink, muted mauve, and antique rose hues open in soft spirals, their velvety petals evoking classic romance and gentle nostalgia. Interlaced among them are ruffled carnations, each head a delicate blend of creamy blush at the centre, deepening into vivid fuchsia and plum at the edges, creating a frilled, painterly texture that catches the light. Adding a bolder note, deep indigo-blue flowers, shaped like compact tulip-like buds, are tucked thoughtfully between the pastels, while a single royal blue anemone with a dark, almost black centre takes a prominent place near the front, like a carefully chosen accent piece on a Turnpike Lane windowsill. Slender stems of pale lilac and lavender stock weave upward, their tiny clustered blossoms lending both height and a whisper of cottage-garden charm, as if carrying the scent of late spring air. The entire arrangement is cradled in fresh greenery: dark, glossy leaves and round, silvery eucalyptus discs create a cool, calming frame and a sense of natural abundance. At the base, the neatly bundled stems are clearly visible, signalling a freshly tied bouquet ready to travel from Friern Barnet Flowers to a local doorstep, perfect for a birthday surprise, a tender anniversary gift, or a soothing arrangement to lift someone's spirits with colour, fragrance, and quiet elegance.
NOBLE BEAUTY
£67.00
As I arrange these radiant blooms at Friern Barnet Flowers, I'm continually enchanted by the interplay between the gentle blush of gerbera daisies and the timeless romance of soft pink roses. The bouquet takes on a luminous quality beneath the shop's window light, the layered pinks merging gracefully like the evening sky above Friern Barnet Lane. Vivid purple statice peeks out, providing moments of lively punctuation-reminders of the eclectic color bursts in local gardens after a spring rain. The fresh, leafy foliage beneath feels cool and dewy, echoing the serene green spaces that define our community. Framed in a simple glass vase, each shade glows with its own inner light, inviting you closer with a sense of hope and restoration. Whether chosen as a cheerful get-well wish for a neighbour near Victoria Park or as a bright accent in a welcoming Friern Barnet living room, this bouquet speaks of bespoke care and the quiet joy we find in everyday moments. Every detail is considered, from the gentle curl of a rose petal to the freshness that whispers of the morning flower deliveries. Its overall effect is uplifting and tranquil-a true reflection of heartfelt local craftsmanship.
PINK DAZE
£49.00
This image shows a meticulously crafted bouquet, presented against a bright white backdrop so every flower and leaf can be clearly admired, much like a display in a well-lit Friern Barnet studio. The arrangement is generously rounded and full, dominated by soft pink and mauve tones that radiate a quiet romance. Several pastel pink roses sit at the centre, some still cupped in elegant buds and others more fully open, revealing their layered hearts and subtle shifts of colour from deeper pink cores to almost creamy outer petals. Interspersed with them are plush carnations in dusty rose and mauve-purple shades, their densely ruffled petals adding a sumptuous, tactile quality. Threaded through this softness are sleek spires of deep lavender-blue Veronica, which lift the eye upward and add a modern, vertical line to the design. Rich purple lisianthus blooms nestle among the roses, while small daisy-like aster flowers in pale lavender with soft yellow centres create a light, airy veil between the larger blossoms. Fresh greenery forms a lively frame: bright lime-green filler clusters sit alongside silvery-green eucalyptus and other foliage, offering contrast and a sense of natural movement, as if the bouquet had just been gathered from a well-tended garden off Woodhouse Road. The stems are visible below, neatly tied in a tight hand-tied bundle that suggests expert local floristry and easy placement into a vase at home. The overall mood is one of thoughtful celebration and gentle luxury, ideal for sending love, congratulations, or comfort to someone in Friern Barnet or nearby Whetstone.
SPRING CHARM
£57.00
A vivid tapestry of blooms, this Friern Barnet arrangement evokes the essence of late summer basking in park-side sunlight. Bold sunflowers dominate, their uplifting faces turned outward, haloed by luminous yellow petals that glow like the afternoon sun spilling over Friary Park's lawns. Surrounding them, yellow garden roses open in plush, spiralling layers, exuding a gentle, tea-like scent that calls to mind morning strolls along Friern Barnet Road. Dotted between these main blooms, clusters of bright red Hypericum berries punctuate the greenery with the playful vibrancy of berries found along local walking trails. Lush green foliage abounds-wispy ferns, airy yellow filler flowers, and slender spikes-each stroke adding movement and texture, as if stirred by a soft breeze rustling through the local woodland. Silvery eucalyptus leaves gently peek from beneath, grounding the bouquet with their cool hue. The arrangement sits in a crystal-clear, round glass vase, resembling a still pond reflecting every verdant stem beneath the surface. Such a display is a celebration of togetherness and joy, perfect for gatherings or quiet moments in homes near Friern Barnet's bustling markets. As a local florist, I see in this bouquet a bit of the neighbourhood's spirit-a gift that can elevate any space, infusing it with optimism and the understated beauty of expertly crafted flowers.
SUNNY FIELDS
£70.00
Nestled in a clear glass vase, a dazzling bouquet of multicoloured Gerbera daisies captures the lively character of Friern Barnet, reminiscent of cheerful mornings near Coppetts Wood. Bursts of sunlit yellow, tangerine orange, and deep magenta Gerbera blooms create a striking contrast with their velvety dark centers, each petal meticulously placed to imbue the arrangement with movement and harmony. The lush greenery threaded between each blossom lends both structure and verdant fragrance, evoking memories of park strolls during spring. The expertly hand-tied stems are ensconced in subtly crinkled cellophane and rustic kraft paper, whose earthy texture offers a gentle contrast to the bouquet's vivid colours. Glistening fresh water in the vase highlights the natural beauty of the stems within, while a carefully tied brown twine bow, complete with a white gift tag bearing a minimalist red rose illustration, hints at artisanal care and a personal touch. Sunlight filters across the scene, enriching the Gerberas' radiant hues and reflecting off the glass for a sense of perpetual freshness. Designed for milestone celebrations or simply to uplift a friend nearby on Friern Barnet Road, this arrangement embodies gratitude, joy, and the welcoming energy of the local community. Its thoughtful craftsmanship and abundant colours make it a timeless expression of happiness, perfect for marking special occasions or adding warmth to any home.
SUNNY GARDEN
£49.00
As a local Friern Barnet florist, there's an artistry to curating arrangements that celebrate both colour and heartfelt sentiment. This captivating gift set epitomizes that spirit: at its centre, a voluminous bouquet explodes with roses in vibrant coral, soft peach, deep pink, and salmon, each petal tinged with a subtle cream or yellow at the core and deeper hues radiating outward. The blooms appear at varying stages, from elegant buds to fully unfurled blossoms, mirrored by luscious, dark green foliage that frames the roses in fresh vitality. The overall texture is lush and inviting, with velvet-soft petals that seem almost luminous in the gentle, natural lighting. Tucked into the composition is a sophisticated pouch of Thorntons Orange Crisp chocolates: the creamy, beige packaging marked with its iconic logo and an illustration of indulgent truffles. In front, two unwrapped, glossy chocolates beckon with their rounded shape and subtle orange aroma. The white backdrop draws focus onto the luxe interplay of floral warmth and chocolaty richness. This arrangement feels like the late afternoon sunshine streaming over North Middlesex Golf Club or moments shared near Friary Park-a gift meant to honour life's milestones, bring comfort, or add joy to any celebration within the Friern Barnet community.

SWEET SERENADE
£89.00
Awash in rich color and exquisite texture, this bouquet from a Friern Barnet Florist is a modern celebration of floral artistry. The foundation is set with grand clusters of blue, indigo, and shadowy teal hydrangeas-each bloom dense with ruffled petals that conjure the moody hues of early evening skies above Arnos Grove. Nestled within and around these striking hydrangeas are beautiful roses in tones of soft lilac and classic creamy white, opening in gentle spirals that recall the perennial charm of local gardens. Bundled white ranunculus cluster tightly, contributing a soft, cushiony texture and a brilliant brightness that contrasts with the cool, mysterious base. Interspersed delicately throughout, slender eustoma buds shimmer in pale yellow, adding subtle light and architectural interest, while vivid, fuchsia-hued filler flowers leap playfully among the lush blooms. At the bouquet's edge, light pink astilbe plumes soften the silhouette, their feathery wisps reminiscent of the airy wildflower verges along High Road. The composition is further enriched with lacy sprays of green and white filler, providing intricate texture and a sense of motion within the arrangement. Polished dark green foliage grounds the palette, deepening the bouquet's impact. Every stem is meticulously arranged and secured with a glossy, wide royal purple ribbon-a sophisticated finish that ties together the ensemble and invites admiration. Radiating grace, warmth, and a hint of celebration, this bouquet is ideal for special milestones, birthdays, or to grace a Harringay home as a symbol of elegance and local pride.
