Shown on a pure white background, this lovingly crafted floral cross has the calm presence of a tribute waiting in a Hitchin church before family and friends arrive to say their goodbyes. The cross's entire surface is carpeted with tightly clustered white cushion chrysanthemums, or similar small white blossoms, each head turned upward so that together they create a seamless, downy texture. Their crisp whiteness carries a sense of purity and spiritual light, evoking still mornings over the fields beyond Hitchin. Along the outer edge of the cross, a slim but vivid border of fresh green foliage or carefully arranged small green blooms traces the shape, emphasising every curve and angle of the arms and vertical stem. This border gives the piece a defined silhouette while suggesting life, renewal, and the calm of nature. At the intersection of the cross's arms, a gentle spray of larger flowers rises slightly above the white base. Here, full-bodied roses in soft peach, pale blush pink, and creamy ivory cluster together, their petals opening in layered whorls that look both tender and strong. Around them, sprigs of fern and slender blades of bright green grass add movement and airiness, while tiny specks of purple or lavender filler flowers offer subtle contrast and a sense of depth. The overall impression is one of solemn grace and quiet love, a floral cross that would be fitting for a memorial in Hitchin town centre, a service at St Mary's, or a peaceful graveside ceremony, symbolising faith, remembrance, and the hope of everlasting rest.

Against a bright white backdrop, a beautifully composed floral cross is presented with the serene formality of a funeral tribute ready to be delivered to a Hitchin chapel or crematorium. The cross is densely covered with countless small white chrysanthemums-or similar dainty blooms-arranged so closely together that they form a soft, continuous blanket of petals. Their pure colour and even texture give the piece a calm, prayerful quality, echoing the tranquillity of quiet corners in Hitchin's churchyards. Tracing every edge of the cross is a neat trim of fresh, vivid green foliage or compact green flower clusters, outlining the arms and base with a precise, living border. This fine green line brings clarity to the shape and gently contrasts with the white, like grass framing a snow-covered path. At the very centre, where the horizontal and vertical beams meet, a raised cluster of larger flowers forms a heartfelt focal point. Several roses in shades of soft peach or apricot, delicate blush, and creamy ivory open warmly, their petals layered and slightly curled. They are nestled among fronds of lush green fern, slender curves of bright bear grass, and occasional specks of tiny purple blossoms, which lend depth and a touch of understated colour. The composition feels carefully thought through, offering both visual comfort and emotional support. Such a floral cross would be chosen to honour a loved one at a Hitchin funeral service, expressing sympathy, Christian faith, and the enduring bond of love in the face of loss.
