Against a neutral white background, this elegant funeral spray unfolds in a long, graceful arc, reminiscent of the floral tributes often seen at services in Longford churches and crematorium chapels. The arrangement is widest through its central section, then gently narrows to each end, forming a soft, elongated teardrop shape. Along the middle lies a rich band of deep, velvety red flowers: classic roses, open gerbera daisies with dark, defined centres, and clusters of ruffled carnations. The red tones are intense yet refined, suggesting love, admiration, and a sense of gravitas. Some blooms are fully open, showcasing lush, layered petals, while others remain partially closed, adding natural variation. Threaded between these crimson flowers are bright lime green button chrysanthemums, their compact, spherical heads offering both contrast and rhythm, giving the spray a contemporary edge. Small white filler flowers, possibly miniature daisies or matricaria, are dotted through the design, bringing softness and a light, airy texture that balances the stronger colours. A generous collar of foliage surrounds and supports the blooms: broad, glossy dark green leaves provide a solid base, while feathery fern fronds and finer greenery contribute texture and gentle movement. At the lower right, several long, strap-like leaves are fanned out to accentuate the length and direction of the design, almost like a green tail. At the upper left, a structured bundle of upright stems or leaves rises from the foliage, with one large leaf wrapped carefully around its base, giving the piece height and a refined, modern touch. Crafted with care, this tribute from Florist Longford would sit beautifully atop a casket or on a stand, offering a dignified expression of sympathy and remembrance for a final farewell.

In this image, a meticulously composed sympathy spray lies against a plain white background, its colours and textures standing out with quiet clarity. The design follows a tapered, elongated teardrop shape, the kind often chosen for funeral services and cremations in and around Longford. At its centre, a generous sweep of dark red flowers draws the eye: velvety roses, flat-faced gerbera daisies with pronounced dark centres, and softly ruffled carnations are layered together to form a strong, emotional core. Some flowers are fully opened, others still in bud or just beginning to unfurl, adding a natural sense of progression and depth. Interspersed among the red blooms are bright lime green chrysanthemum pompons, small and spherical, creating a playful yet elegant contrast that lifts the arrangement visually while keeping the tone respectful. Tiny white blossoms, resembling gypsophila or miniature daisies, are scattered throughout, lending a gauzy lightness and helping to blend the transitions between hues. All of this is set within an abundant frame of foliage: broad, glossy leaves, feathery leatherleaf ferns, and other greenery create a lush, layered backdrop. On the lower right, several long, ribbon-like leaves are carefully splayed to extend the line of the spray, suggesting gentle movement. At the upper left, a vertical bundle of green stems or leaves stands upright, embellished by a single large leaf wrapped neatly around its base, adding both height and a touch of modern structure. The overall impression is of a dignified, beautifully balanced funeral tribute, suitable for placement on a casket or stand at a Longford memorial, expressing love, respect, and a peaceful farewell.
