“I'M SORRY” FLOWERS
In this image, a graceful floral bouquet is showcased in a simple, clear glass cylinder vase, washed in soft, natural light that could be streaming through a Longford kitchen or sitting-room window. The arrangement centres on several fully opened white roses, their creamy petals unfolding in perfectly layered spirals, creating a plush, romantic heart to the display. Around them, lavender and dusky purple alstroemeria cluster in varying stages of bloom-some petals just beginning to part from their buds, others fully open to reveal fine, darker streaks that add subtle intrigue and texture. Wisps of white baby's breath drift between the larger blossoms, forming a delicate, cloud-like veil that softens every edge and gives the bouquet a light, airy feeling. Rich green foliage, both broad and slender, surrounds and supports the blooms, its glossy surfaces providing a fresh contrast against the soft whites and purples. Through the clear water in the vase, the green stems appear straight and carefully aligned, a quiet testament to the skilled hands that arranged them. The bouquet is shaped into a rounded, generous dome, full yet not crowded, with each flower given space to shine. It evokes a sense of hushed celebration and gentle reassurance-the kind of flowers you might send for a thoughtful get-well gesture to a neighbour off the Longford High Street, to mark a new beginning, or to bring a soothing presence to a bedside table. The overall impression is one of calm refinement, as if the room itself has grown a little quieter and kinder around these blooms.
MAKE A WISH
£60.00
There is an understated tenderness in this vase of snowy white roses paired with airy baby's breath (Gypsophila), each element chosen to convey warmth and considered beauty. Around a dozen immaculate roses form the heart of the design; their creamy petals range from tightly furled buds to fully opened blooms that reveal soft, layered textures and a satin-like sheen. Interspersed throughout, fine sprays of baby's breath create a luminous, cloud-like veil that lifts the arrangement and adds a dreamy translucence reminiscent of early morning mist. The foliage beneath-a mix of deep, cool greens and brighter lime tones-cradles the flowers, offering contrast and a sense of lush abundance without overpowering the whites. The bouquet is presented in a simple clear glass vase so the straight, neatly trimmed stems and the water level remain visible, a subtle testament to freshness and careful preparation. Gentle, diffused lighting highlights the ivory undertones of the roses and suggests the calm atmosphere of a Longford shop window near St. Mel's Cathedral or a sunlit corner of the local market. The scent is light and inviting rather than bold, a whisper of fresh cut petals that suits birthdays, anniversaries, quiet celebrations, or moments of remembrance. This composition feels like a quiet promise-pure, composed, and thoughtfully made, the kind of bouquet a Longford florist would place on a mantel or deliver to a bedside with steady, considerate hands.
MY ONLY
£70.00
With every detail considered, this vibrant bouquet reflects Longford's unique blend of rustic charm and refined beauty. At its centre, the arrangement explodes with full, ruffled carnations in shades of passionate red, gentle pink, and sumptuous cream, each blossom enveloped by a misting of pure white Gypsophila. The compact, dome-like form is reminiscent of the well-tended gardens lining Longford's historic streets, while the clear glass vase beneath reveals a tapestry of fresh stems crisscrossing through cool water-a subtle testament to long-standing floristry traditions. The baby's breath, like soft morning fog along the Colne, adds an airy lightness that elevates the whole piece, highlighting the vibrant energy of the carnations within. Each flower catches the even lighting, its tones glowing vividly against the image's crisp white background. Perfect for a thoughtful gesture-for anniversaries celebrated at home or thank yous shared after a country walk-this arrangement channels the warmth and hospitality of the Longford community. It's a bouquet that signals both celebration and calm, handcrafted by Longford Florist for genuine moments of connection.
WARM WISHES
£55.00
This arrangement tells a layered story of texture and refined contrast, presented in a clear, slightly curved glass vase that exposes a tidy bouquet of stems and water. At its heart, sculptural white calla lilies-with their porcelain-smooth trumpets and soft yellow spadices-create an architectural focus that feels both modern and serene. Interspersed among these are plush magenta peonies: two exuberantly open blooms whose velvety, ruffled petals create deep, tactile shadows, and a smaller bud that promises a later reveal. A solitary creamy white rose sits lower in the composition, its concentric petals steadying the overall shape with timeless grace. Rising through the centre, a spire of white stock echoes the callas' elegance, its clustered tiny blossoms lending vertical movement and a delicate, fragrant lift. Wisps of baby's breath lace the bouquet, offering an airy, cloud-like quality that softens edges and balances the peonies' drama. Greenery-fern-like fronds and broader glossy leaves-wraps and supports each bloom, their fresh green tones intensifying the magenta and white palette. In soft daylight the petals take on a subtle translucence; the peonies' fragrance brings warmth and a hint of summer, while the callas contribute cooler, fresher notes. This design suits intimate celebrations or a thoughtful gift delivered across Longford town centre and nearby Newtownforbes or Edgeworthstown, where the arrangement's combination of structure and softness feels at home on a mantlepiece or a kitchen table beside a morning cup of tea.
HOPELESS ROMANTIC
£65.00
Bathed in ambient light reminiscent of Longford's gentle mornings, this artfully crafted bouquet weaves together a tapestry of colour, scent, and texture. The arrangement's heart lies in plush, deep red roses whose velvety petals speak of enduring love-matched by the cheerful elegance of crisp white gerberas, each with a dark, earthy center that draws the eye and brightens the mood. Amid these classic blooms, pale mauve lisianthus buds peek through, their delicate blossoms suggesting hope and new milestones, much like the quiet anticipation that fills Longford's welcoming homes. Wisps of cloud-like white filler flowers feather through the bouquet, adding softness and subtle movement, reminiscent of light wind across the village green. Sprays of silvery-green eucalyptus provide a refreshing backdrop, their distinctive shape and cool hue imparting an invigorating aroma that evokes a morning stroll through Longford Park. Encircling the arrangement, deep green structural leaves shine with health, grounding the visual vibrance. The stems, fully visible through the pristine vase, are immersed in clear water-a nod to the bouquet's lasting freshness. Perfect for same-day delivery within Longford, this arrangement brings elegance and thoughtful sentiment to any occasion, from thoughtful housewarmings to heartfelt birthday surprises.
VANITY FAIR
£50.00
Every arrangement from Longford Florist draws inspiration from our bustling local spirit, and this radiant presentation of orange-pink roses is no exception. The bouquet unfurls in a harmonious blend, with blossoms glowing in layers of soft peach, luminous coral, and hints of deep salmon. Each petal extends gently outward from a golden-tinged center, the subtle gradients creating a mesmerizing cascade of colour and movement. The fresh, glossy foliage wraps and frames the roses-deep green, perhaps eucalyptus or ruscus-adding richness and depth, and catching the light beautifully. There's a tactile softness to the petals and leaves alike, inviting the senses and conjuring the gentle ambience of a stroll through Longford's peaceful parks. Poised in perfect compliment, the Thorntons Orange Crisp chocolate pouch entices with its smooth, creamy packaging and tantalising imagery-a promise of tangy, orange-infused truffles with crispy centers enveloped in decadent milk chocolate. The two truffles set before the packet bring the experience to life, promising a treat as generous as the bouquet itself. Ideal for anniversaries, birthdays, or heartfelt thanks to friends along Bath Road or in the local community, this combination captures the joy of gift-giving in Longford-effortlessly uniting beauty, taste, and thoughtful flourish for every memorable occasion.
SWEET SERENADE
£89.00
Radiating the abundant light of a Longford summer, this vibrant arrangement features bold, sun-facing sunflowers whose golden petals and textured brown centers evoke scenes from the local fields. They are joined by supple yellow roses, each bloom unfurling gently to reveal a classic spiral reminiscent of historic village gardens. Scattered amongst the yellow are clusters of glossy red Hypericum berries, adding playful dots of color that capture the joy of gatherings along Longford's leafy footpaths. The bouquet is rich with various greens: feathery fern fronds tumble downward, creating a graceful, airy effect; filler sprigs-maybe goldenrod-introduce tiny yellow blossoms and slender green spikes, celebrating the area's wildflower hedgerows. Bluish-green eucalyptus leaves peek out, infusing both a refreshing visual contrast and a hint of cool, fresh scent that conjures country walks near Stanwell Moor. The clear, spherical glass vase grounds the display, its transparent surface revealing the entwined stems in water, an embodiment of natural beauty and local craftsmanship. This arrangement brings together sunlight, scent, and heartfelt artistry-perfect for gifting, marking special Longford moments, or simply brightening a beloved home.
SUNNY FIELDS
£70.00
A richly coloured hand-arranged bouquet that balances dramatic crimson roses with gentle lavender blossoms to create a harmonious, romantic statement. The roses are densely clustered, their fully opened heads revealing layered, velvety petals in shades of deep red, burgundy, and soft lilac; the overall effect is a textured, rounded mass of colour that invites touch. Interspersed among the roses are glossy, dark green leaves-likely ruscus or salal-whose cool, structured shapes frame each bloom and add depth to the silhouette. Bright red-orange rose hips or berry clusters nestle through the arrangement, introducing small points of vivid contrast and a seasonal, countryside note that complements the formal elegance of the roses. The bouquet is displayed in a reflective mercury-style glass vase with a slightly bulbous body and a narrower neck; its antique silvered mottling catches light and adds a subtle old-world glamour. A simple length of natural twine or raffia is tied at the vase's throat, and a white rectangular tag with a delicate floral sketch and green, handwritten lettering dangles forward, offering a cue that this piece is intended as a thoughtful gift. Set on a clean white background, the image emphasizes freshness and presentation-perfect for sending across Longford town centre or leaving as a surprise delivered after a visit to local parks or the weekend market. The scent is imagined as a soft rose perfume with green, earthy undertones, a composition that suits anniversaries, thank-you gestures, or quiet celebrations.
LOVE & PASSION
£65.00
The image shows a generous bouquet of mixed hydrangeas set against a spotless white background, giving it a gallery-like simplicity that draws the eye straight to the flowers. Large, rounded hydrangea heads in blush pink, powder blue, and clean ivory white dominate the arrangement, each bloom a cluster of countless delicate florets packed tightly together so the surface looks soft and clouded. The pink tones lend a sense of romance and affection, the blue adds a gentle, cooling presence, and the white flowers bring clarity and light, much like a calm morning sky over Longford's open green spaces. Between these voluminous blooms, fine sprays of tiny, deep magenta or fuchsia filler flowers appear, adding lively points of contrast and a feathery texture that breaks up the larger shapes. A bed of lush foliage surrounds the hydrangeas: broad dark green leaves provide a strong, verdant base, while lighter, more petite leaves add movement and softness around the edges. The bouquet is clearly hand-tied, with the natural stems gathered and secured neatly at the bottom, ready to slip into a vase on a Longford kitchen table or to be presented as a thoughtful doorstep delivery. The lighting is bright and even, enhancing the fresh, just-cut look of the flowers, and casting only the gentlest of shadows to reveal depth. Altogether, this mixed hydrangea bouquet conveys quiet celebration and steady reassurance, perfectly suited for marking milestones, welcoming new beginnings, or simply bringing a sense of calm beauty into homes and offices throughout Longford.
FAIRYTALE BLISS
£60.00
A lush, globe-shaped bouquet of roses in deep red, creamy white, and vibrant royal blue occupies the centre of the image, its carefully balanced colour pattern reminiscent of a handcrafted patriotic emblem. The blooms are densely packed into a smooth dome, with each rose head touching its neighbours so that the petals form an almost continuous field of soft, velvety texture. Some blooms remain tightly swirled at the centre, suggesting freshness and longevity, while others open more generously, with layered petals gently curving outward and catching subtle highlights and shadows. The red roses provide a rich, romantic undertone, the white roses bring clarity and calm, and the blue roses offer a distinctive splash of bold, modern colour that gives the bouquet a striking, ceremonial quality. Small pockets of dark, glossy green leaves peek through the roses, grounding the design with a touch of foliage that adds depth and natural contrast. At the bottom, a neat cluster of stems, aligned and trimmed with precision, shows the florist's craftsmanship and readiness for quick placement into a vase in a Longford home or office. The bouquet is photographed against a crisp, bright white background, which amplifies the intensity of each hue and emphasises the perfect rounded silhouette. The overall atmosphere is one of respectful celebration and dignified beauty, making this arrangement particularly suited for national events, remembrance gatherings, or thoughtful deliveries across Longford when you want to honour service, togetherness, and shared values through flowers.
LIKE A ROYAL
£85.00
The photograph presents a round, full bouquet set against a smooth white background, allowing the gentle interplay of cream, pink, and green tones to take centre stage. Cream-coloured roses dominate the heart of the arrangement, each one fully open and showing off a perfect swirl of soft, velvety petals that seem to glow in the even light. Interwoven with them are pink spray roses in varying stages of bloom, some as tight buds and others partially unfolded, lending the design a sense of life and unfolding stories, much like the evolving character of Longford itself. A bright pink gerbera daisy, easy to spot with its daisy-like shape and rich, dark central eye, brings a joyful, modern energy that contrasts beautifully with the more traditional roses. Around and between these focal flowers, pale pink carnations add generous volume, their frilled petals creating textured cushions of colour that soften the bouquet's rounded outline. White alstroemeria blossoms, each delicately striped and speckled towards the throat of the flower, weave through the composition, adding brightness and a sense of gentle movement. Sprays of tiny white gypsophila are sprinkled throughout, forming gauzy clusters that fill small gaps and lend the arrangement an airy, cloud-like halo. Fresh, medium-green foliage adds structure and contrast, its leaves just visible enough to frame the flowers without overwhelming them, reminiscent of the calm greenery in nearby parks and open spaces around Longford. The stems are neatly bound at the bottom, indicating a professional hand-tied finish ready for gift-giving or home display. The overall impression is one of warmth, tenderness, and quiet celebration, ideal for new beginnings, get-well wishes, or simply brightening a Longford home on an ordinary day.
AMALFI LOVE
£59.00
This image shows a thoughtfully composed bouquet dominated by white and green tones, photographed against a clean white backdrop that lets every detail stand out. In the centre, fully open white and ivory roses create a soft focal point, their many layered petals forming generous cups that hint at a gentle, familiar fragrance and timeless romance. Around them, ornamental cabbages, or flowering kale, add a modern, textured contrast: broad, deep green outer leaves curl around inner whorls of paler green and yellow-green ruffles, giving the arrangement its contemporary edge. Scattered between these larger blooms are dainty white spray chrysanthemums and tiny daisy-like flowers, each with a soft yellow to greenish centre, adding a sense of lightness and cheerful texture. Slim stems of astrantia introduce small, star-shaped flowers in muted greenish white, their intricate bracts and central clusters creating a delicate, almost lace-like effect. Hints of white petals reminiscent of alstroemeria slip through the design, adding elongated forms that gently guide the eye. The bouquet is supported by abundant greenery: deep emerald foliage, slightly lighter mid-green leaves, and finer stems combine to create depth and a rounded, hand-gathered silhouette. The stems are visible and neatly tied at the base, indicating a hand-tied arrangement ready for same-day delivery across Longford, from homes near the main high street to quieter residential lanes. The overall mood is serene, fresh, and quietly sophisticated, making this bouquet suitable for marking new beginnings, offering condolences, or decorating a minimalist interior with a touch of natural elegance.
AMAZON SANGRIA
£50.00
Set against a crisp white background, this thoughtfully crafted bouquet showcases creamy white roses, pink alstroemeria, and delicate white baby's breath gathered into a rounded, hand-tied form, very much in the refined style associated with Longford Florist. The white roses sit proudly across the top of the arrangement, their blooms fully open yet still structured. Layers of velvety petals spiral outward from a soft, pale yellow center, giving each rose a gentle glow that keeps the overall design warm and inviting. Between them, generous stems of pink alstroemeria offer a cheerful contrast. Each trumpet-shaped flower bears several petals that shift from a light blush at the outer edges to richer shades of fuchsia and magenta near the center, detailed with fine maroon speckles and lines, echoing the subtle patterns one might notice while wandering residential streets around Longford.   

Fine sprays of white Gypsophila are woven throughout, their tiny clustered blossoms creating a misty, cloud-like effect that softens the sharper outlines of the larger blooms. The foliage is a rich, deep green, emerging here and there from beneath the flowers, giving structure and a garden-fresh feel that suggests the bouquet was prepared for same-day delivery across the local area. At the lower edge of the frame, the natural green stems of the flowers are visible, neatly cut and bound in a classic hand-tied finish, making the arrangement ready to place into a favourite vase in a Longford home or workplace. Clear, even lighting illuminates every petal and leaf, drawing out texture and depth without casting harsh shadows. The bouquet carries an air of calm celebration and sincere affection, suitable for anniversaries, birthdays, congratulations, or simply letting someone know they are being thought of with kindness.
AMOUR
£50.00
Bathed in clear, natural light against a brilliant white background, this hand-tied bouquet reads like a moment of late-summer warmth captured in flowers. The design centres on several generous roses - some glowing in deep tangerine, others in a sunlit golden-yellow - their velvety spirals offering a heady, familiar sweetness. Interspersed among the roses, coral and peach carnations provide a dense, cushiony texture with their scalloped, ruffled petals, while soft peach gerberas add open, radiant faces that feel joyful and convivial. Small, white spray blooms - delicate freesia-like clusters - lift the composition with pure highlights, and pale green, airy Astrantia-like fillers give a whisper of wildness between the larger heads. Rounded eucalyptus leaves with their silvery-green sheen are threaded through the bouquet, tempering the warm tones and adding a cool, aromatic counterpoint. The stems are tightly gathered and secured at the base, clearly prepared by hand for immediate display.  As a florist arranging these stems for homes and celebrations around Longford, I imagine the bouquet arriving like a small celebration: the rose perfume soft against the citrusy freshness of foliage, the tactile pleasure of velvety petals and feathery fillers. It suits birthdays, anniversaries, or a 'get well soon' visit to a friend by the Market Square or a doorstep on Main Street. Practical and heartfelt, it's ideal for local delivery across Longford and its neighbouring villages, bringing textured colour and a comforting scent into any room.
BRIGHT KISS
£55.00
Set against a bright, uncluttered white background, this image captures a classic romantic gesture that could easily be found arriving on a doorstep in Longford: a radiant bouquet of red roses paired with a cuddly teddy bear. The bouquet, arranged in a clear glass vase, features around twelve deep crimson roses, each bloom rich with layers of velvety petals that open in graceful spirals. Some of the roses are fully unfurled, showing expansive, cup-like forms, while others are slightly more closed, adding dimension and a sense of living movement. Between the roses, airy sprays of white baby's breath (Gypsophila) spread like a soft veil, their tiny, star-like flowers forming a delicate contrast to the bold, saturated reds. The stems stand straight and green within the vase, clearly visible through the clean water, their linear structure bringing quiet order to the arrangement, as though freshly composed by a skilled Longford florist preparing a romantic delivery. Subtle reflections along the glass edges accentuate the bouquet's shape against the pristine background. To the right of the flowers, a plush light-brown teddy bear sits poised and friendly. Its fur appears delightfully soft and slightly shaggy, inviting touch, while the bear's small dark eyes, petite embroidered nose, and gentle stitched smile give it a reassuring, affectionate presence. A dark brown ribbon bow around its neck adds a neat, traditional finish. The bear's relaxed, upright posture, with rounded paws resting in front, softens the intensity of the roses and infuses the scene with warmth and nostalgia. Together, this combination suggests anniversary surprises, Valentine's love, and thoughtful gifts sent across Longford for birthdays or heartfelt "I'm sorry" moments.
FOREVER & TEDDY BEAR
£80.00
A lush, rounded bouquet in happy yellow, crisp white, and zesty green tones is gathered into a clear, square glass vase, set against a clean white background that makes its colours appear especially vivid. The main blooms are classic yellow roses, their petals unfurling in soft spirals; some are fully open and generous, while others remain in elegant bud, adding a sense of unfolding life. Around them cluster smaller yellow spray roses whose many miniature blossoms bring a gentle, garden-like fullness, rather like the layered hedgerows and front gardens seen around Longford. Between the yellows, dense white pompom chrysanthemums provide a cool, calming balance, their spherical shapes and packed petals lending a tactile, cushion-soft texture. Bright lime green button chrysanthemums pop up like playful notes, while larger pale green blooms-frilled and ruffled, recalling speciality green carnations or certain mum varieties-introduce a smooth transition between the vivid greens and the sunny yellows. The arrangement is woven through with foliage: broad, variegated leaves edged in light cream, slender dark green leaves, and fine filler greens that help to frame and support the blossoms without crowding them. Tiny white filler flowers, each shaped like a little star, are sprinkled throughout, adding delicacy and a feeling of light drifting through the design. The clear vase reveals the tidy stems below and features a rustic, natural-looking band at its centre, wrapped with a bright lime green ribbon that ties the colour story together. This bouquet feels fresh, optimistic, and quietly joyful, ideal for placing on a Longford kitchen table, sending as a same-day pick-me-up to a friend nearby, or brightening an office overlooking the local high street.
FRESH BLOSSOM
£64.50
This image presents a refined floral bouquet against a plain white background, every stem and petal crisply defined. Central to the composition are multiple creamy white roses, all generously open, revealing soft spirals of petals that give a sense of luxury and poised calm. Their mellow ivory tones are beautifully offset by clusters of deep purple and magenta alstroemeria, whose slender, trumpet-shaped blooms curl outward and introduce a rich, jewel-like contrast. Some of these Peruvian lilies are fully opened, their inner markings just visible, while others remain in bud, hinting at the bouquet's freshness. Scattered throughout, sprays of white gypsophila add a fine, lace-like texture, their tiny blossoms catching the light and filling the negative space between the more prominent flowers. Delicate astrantia, in subtle green-white hues, punctuates the arrangement with small starry heads, bringing a gentle echo of meadow flowers into this otherwise polished design. Encircling the base, broad, glossy aspidistra leaves are folded into a sleek, structured collar, their deep green shine grounding the lighter tones above. The stems emerge neatly at the bottom, gathered with precision in a typical hand-tied finish. The lighting in the photograph is bright and even, highlighting the freshness of the petals and the rich sheen of the foliage. This is the type of bouquet that would feel at home on a dining table in Longford, perhaps after a same-day delivery to a house near the local green or a quiet cul-de-sac off the main road, fitting for moments of appreciation, quiet celebration, or a sincere expression of support during more reflective times.
IN THE STARS
£60.00
This photograph shows a beautifully composed chrysanthemum bouquet, placed against a plain white background that highlights its gentle colours and textures. The bouquet is built in a rounded, dome-like shape, with the main body formed by medium to large chrysanthemum heads in shades of white and soft cream. Each blossom is full of slender petals, layered in a way that gives a plush, almost feathery appearance, their centres softly tinted with green or pale yellow. Intermixed throughout are sprays of smaller white chrysanthemums, whose petite, daisy-like faces bring a delicate, almost playful rhythm to the arrangement. Breaking up the soft neutrals are striking lime green pompon chrysanthemums, their tightly packed petals forming tidy spheres that feel both tactile and modern. These vivid green accents add a lively energy, much like the unexpected bursts of colour you see in garden borders and village verges around Longford. Here and there, dark green foliage peeks from beneath the blooms, giving depth and a natural sense of structure to the bouquet without detracting from its lightness. The stems at the bottom are aligned in a tidy bundle and encircled by a smooth lime green satin ribbon, tied into a neat bow that mirrors the brightness of the pompon mums. The overall effect is gentle yet uplifting, perfect for sending warm wishes to a friend in Longford, offering quiet support during a difficult time, or welcoming someone home with a fresh, elegantly simple floral gesture.
LIME ZEST
£50.00
A generous cluster of oriental lilies, predominantly creamy white alongside bold magenta and fuchsia blossoms, composes this arresting bouquet photographed against a crisp white backdrop. The white blooms read as a soft, warm off-white, each petal gently unfurling from a subtle yellow-green throat; the many fully open flowers reveal their familiar trumpet or star shapes and stamens tipped with pale pollen, adding a touch of botanical realism. Interspersed are the deeper pink lilies whose velvety petals sometimes carry lighter veins or a pale centre, producing a layered contrast that makes the bouquet feel both opulent and grounded. Some blooms are tightly closed buds that promise more flowers to come, suggesting longevity and careful selection at the time of arranging. Rich, lanceolate green leaves punctuate the mass of colour, their darker tone giving depth and a fresh, garden-like backbone to the display. The composition is set in a plain, transparent glass vase; through it a tidy bundle of stems and clear water are visible, reinforcing the flowers' recently cut freshness. The well-diffused lighting highlights the silkiness of the petals and the slight sheen on the foliage, while evoking a soft, evocative scent-an intoxicating, sweet perfume that might fill a home on a spring morning. As crafted by local hands, this style of bouquet is often chosen to mark birthdays, intimate celebrations or to bring calm elegance to a Longford sitting room near the railway station or community gardens, and it reflects the considered touch of a town florist experienced in seasonal lilies.
MARVELOUS BLOOMS
£63.00
Against a clean white backdrop, a colourful bouquet stands upright, its mix of pink, yellow, and blue blooms drawing the eye immediately to the centre. Multiple pink roses, open and plush, create a romantic, almost classic foundation, their petals forming layered cups that appear soft to the touch, like velvet warmed in gentle afternoon light. Interspersed among them, bright yellow gerbera daisies glow like miniature suns, each bloom with its ring of slender petals encircling a deep brown centre that provides an inviting, earthy contrast. From within this warm, joyful mix, stems of deep blue delphinium emerge, their stacked florets climbing along slender stalks and adding a vertical, meadow-inspired accent, evocative of wildflowers seen on country walks just beyond Longford. Surrounding the core flowers is an ample frame of greenery. Wisps of feathery fern peek out from underneath, softening the lower outline, while larger, glossy leaves arc around the base, some wrapped firmly around the stems just beneath the flower heads to form a neat, natural-looking collar. These tropical-style leaves, occasionally marked with faint lighter striping, reflect the light with a gentle sheen, emphasizing their smooth texture. In between, small mounded clusters of textured, bright green filler foliage help shape the bouquet into a generous, rounded dome, enhancing the sense of lushness. Delicate, upright stems tipped with tiny green buds stretch above the main cluster, echoing the freshness of a bouquet just arranged. At the bottom, the green stems are clearly visible, bundled tightly and secured with a pale wrap and simple tie that signal hand-tied craftsmanship. The bouquet conveys an uplifting, celebratory mood, ideal for birthdays, thank-yous, or housewarming gifts delivered across Longford, from quiet residential roads to busier local thoroughfares.
NATURAL POETRY
£60.00
A softly radiant bouquet in tender shades of pink, lilac, and fresh green is pictured against a crisp white background, giving it a serene, almost airy presence. At its heart are lush mounds of blush pink hydrangeas, their tightly packed, ruffled petals forming rounded shapes that look as if they could be gently pressed like fabric. Surrounding and intermingling with these hydrangeas are light pink roses, some fully unfurled with spiralling centres, others shyly curled in bud form, offering a sense of time and growth as the bouquet slowly opens over the days after delivery in Longford. Fine, arching stems of bell-shaped flowers in pastel lavender and pale purple, reminiscent of campanula, weave through and above the main blooms, adding a whimsical, garden-like feel, as though gathered from a border near a quiet corner of Longford. Pockets of deeper colour come from clusters of dark pink and fuchsia filler flowers, similar to waxflower or petite phlox, which tuck into gaps and lend the arrangement richer depth and intricate detail. Fresh, bright green foliage wraps around the blossoms, some leaves broad and glossy, others finer and more feathery, helping to frame the pink and lavender tones while suggesting natural, just-picked freshness. The stems at the base are clearly visible and tidily bound, emphasising that this is a hand-tied bouquet meant to slip easily into a favourite vase. The overall impression is of calm joy and gentle romance, perfectly suited for marking birthdays, anniversaries, or welcoming a new baby, and for bringing a touch of soft, floral beauty into homes and workplaces across Longford.
PINK CASHMERE
£59.00
Captured from a slightly overhead angle against a clean white background, this bouquet reveals a carefully layered interplay of pink, purple, and green that reflects the thoughtful work of an experienced florist in Longford. At its heart, velvety roses in soft blush and pastel pink gradually open in concentric rings, some petals tipped with a slightly deeper rose colour that adds subtle drama. Nestled alongside, generous carnations in dusty rose and mauve provide a cloud of ruffled texture, their frilled petals catching light and shadow in gentle waves. Piercing through this cushion of softness, slender stems of deep indigo and violet Veronica extend upward, adding linear elegance and giving the design a sense of uplift and movement. Dotted between the larger blooms are little constellations of aster-like flowers in lavender-blue and periwinkle, each small daisy-shaped head centred with pale yellow, bringing an airy, almost whimsical note. The darker, bell-shaped lisianthus blooms in rich purple tuck themselves discreetly among the roses and carnations, enriching the colour story with pockets of depth and sophistication. A generous array of greenery frames the flowers: bright chartreuse, textural filler glows against muted, bluish eucalyptus leaves and other mixed foliage, echoing the contrasts of sunlight and shade along Longford's residential streets and nearby parks. The stems, gathered tightly at the base, are straight, clean, and clearly hand-tied, ready to slip into a clear glass vase on a Longford dining table or office desk. This bouquet feels suited to many occasions-from quiet thank-yous and congratulations to more personal celebrations-offering a blend of contemporary flair and timeless charm.
SPRING CHARM
£57.00
A statement of serene elegance: a large cluster of white lilies, artfully arranged and photographed in a clear glass vase against a pristine white background. Each bloom displays multiple broad, smooth petals, unfurling with the soft curves characteristic of lilies, their surfaces a luminous, pure white that transitions to a pale, creamy yellow-green near each flower's throat. From several open faces extend long, graceful stamens with light greenish-yellow filaments and warm brown anthers, fine architectural details that punctuate the composition and lend a tactile point of focus. Interwoven through the blooms are abundant, deep green lance leaves that add rich contrast and a sense of volume, the glossy texture catching highlights and shaping the bouquet's silhouette. The vase's transparency exposes straight, pale green stems standing in clear water, conveying a sense of freshness and precise floral care. As an arrangement suited to both quiet remembrance and refined interiors, it carries a gentle scent that would perfume a small room without overwhelming it. As a local florist in Longford, I imagine this design arriving at a doorstep on the High Street or brightening a table at a community gathering near Longford Market; Longford Florist can prepare similar compositions for same-day collection or local delivery. The image conveys calm dignity, a visual note of purity and solace, precise craftsmanship, and the comforting refinement of classic white lilies positioned to evoke peace and timeless beauty.
STRIKING BEAUTY
£65.00
A refined cluster of vibrant pink oriental lilies fills a clear glass vase that sits on a white surface beneath soft studio lighting, photographed to emphasize each blossom's sculptural form. The bouquet is dominated by large star-shaped flowers in a spectrum of rosy pinks and fuchsia tones; their petals sweep outward with a slight satin sheen, graduating to creamy, chartreuse-tinged throats that glow against the deeper edges. Within those centers, prominent dark burgundy stamens laden with pollen create a dramatic, tactile contrast to the delicate petal edges, while several unopened and partially opened buds-pale pink to deep magenta with green tips-offer the promise of continued bloom. Rich, lance-like green leaves weave through the display, their glossy texture and upright stems visible through the vase's clear water, suggesting careful trimming and professional preparation. The photograph's pure white backdrop isolates the bouquet, allowing viewers to appreciate the lilies' anatomy, the way light skims petal curves, and the subtle perfume the flowers suggest. I prepared and photographed this arrangement in our Longford workshop for local clients, mindful of the details residents expect from a neighbourhood florist; it's a composition suited to celebratory bouquets, thoughtful thank-you gifts, or elegant home decor for spaces around Longford town centre and the nearby community park. The tone is quietly celebratory and botanical, designed to inform someone who depends on accurate sensory description-colour, scent, texture-and to convey the lilies' freshness and lasting beauty without overstating commercial claims.
VIBRANT DELIGHT
£60.00
A richly layered bouquet of multi-coloured roses fills the scene against a clean, bright white background, giving the flowers a crisp, modern stage that lets every hue shine clearly. The roses are arranged into a generous, rounded dome, tightly packed so that the primary impression is one of pure, abundant colour, like an armful of summer gathered from gardens around Longford. Deep crimson and ruby roses are scattered throughout, resting alongside glowing yellow blooms that add sunshine, warm orange and coral roses that bring energy, soft pastel and blush pinks that suggest tenderness, and creamy ivory tones that introduce calm and elegance. Each blossom shows off its intricate, spiralled petals, some fully unfurled, others still half closed, hinting at the bouquet's freshness and long vase life. Between the blooms, glimpses of rich, dark green foliage offer contrast, similar to the way patches of greenery appear between houses and along paths near the centre of Longford. Beneath the vibrant flower heads, the stems are drawn together neatly and secured with a green and white checked ribbon, a simple, charming detail that makes the bouquet feel personal and hand-tied rather than factory-made. The stems flare slightly where they meet the white surface, adding a natural, relaxed finish. Soft, even lighting accentuates the velvety look of the petals and the subtle shifts in tone within each rose, from darker centres to paler edges. The impression is one of festive warmth and heartfelt emotion, suitable for marking milestones, sending anniversary wishes, or delivering a bright burst of colour to a Longford office or family home as a spontaneous surprise.
WAIKIKI SUNSET
£69.00
Photographed against a stark white backdrop, this luxuriant hand-tied bouquet displays an intentional play of colour and texture that feels both modern and warmly familiar. At the centre a voluminous lime-green hydrangea acts as a soft, luminous focal point-its tiny clustered petals forming a plush, cloud-like surface that draws the eye inward. Surrounding that centre are classic roses: velvety deep red blooms that convey passion and elegance, interspersed with softer pastel pink and cream roses whose gently unfurling petals offer romance and quiet refinement. Bright coral-pink carnations punctuate the design with ruffled edges and joyous warmth, while cool, architectural blue-grey Eryngium thistles (sea holly) introduce a striking, spiky silhouette and a subtle metallic sheen. The bouquet is filled and framed by silvery eucalyptus leaves, their muted tones providing an aromatic, contemporary backdrop, and by upright blades of fresh green grass and slender foliage that add height and a breezy outline. Neatly hand-tied at the stems with natural fibre, the visible green stems and woody textures celebrate the craftsmanship of a local florist. This arrangement would translate beautifully for a Mother's Day surprise, anniversary present, or a sophisticated centrepiece for a weekend dinner; Longford Florist often prepares similar hand-tied bouquets for collection from Longford Market and delivery across the town and surrounding lanes. The overall impression is lively yet refined, a bouquet that breathes freshness and thoughtful care into any small celebration.
WILD AT HEART
£59.00
Imagine gathering this sumptuous bouquet in your arms-its colours recalling the patchwork of Longford's gardens and the warmth of a village gathering. Velvet red roses and chrysanthemums glow at the core, sheltering mellow apricot and peach roses whose soft hues bring a gentle radiance, akin to a sunrise over Bath Road. Feathery sprays of gypsophila flutter throughout, their white clusters resembling delicate snowflakes drifting past historic St. Mary's Church. Robust stems, visible through sparkling water in their vase, highlight the freshness promised by same-day delivery throughout Longford. Lush green leaves embrace the arrangement, lending both visual structure and the scent of a well-tended garden. This bouquet's harmonious blend of shades and textures is perfect for celebrations, making a cheerful centrepiece for birthdays or milestones cherished in local homes. Subtle floral sweetness and an undercurrent of green create an uplifting mood, as though the blooms extend an affectionate congratulation or a gentle reminder of nature's beauty in Longford.
WONDROUS BLOOMS
£50.00
Presented in a tapered clear glass vase on a white background, this refined floral design blends dramatic colour with serene simplicity - a style we often prepare at Longford Florist for customers across Longford town and surrounding villages. The focal point is a dense, saturated mass of deep blue hydrangea blooms, their rounded clusters feeling plush and tactile, like small velvet cushions gathered into one bold statement. Nestled at the base of this blue heart are several creamy white roses, each unfurling in soft, velveteen rings that add a tender, timeless texture. Above the cluster, pristine white calla lilies ascend with clean, architectural lines; their smooth, trumpet-shaped blooms reflect light like porcelain and carry a whisper of pale green at the throat.

Slim spires of white snapdragons (or similar vertical stock) thread through the upper zones, contributing graceful height and a slightly playful silhouette. Throughout the arrangement, glossy broad leaves and airy fern fronds weave in and out, giving contrast and a fresh, green backbone. The clear vase reveals neatly cut stems and fresh water, reinforcing the sense of careful, professional craftsmanship. Bathed in soft, neutral light, the bouquet reads as dignified and comforting - ideal for sympathy and remembrance, an elegant anniversary gift, or a sophisticated table centrepiece. We frequently deliver pieces like this to addresses near the Market Square and Ballymahon Road, and can prepare it for same-day delivery within Longford when freshness matters most.
