When someone you care about is grieving, a bouquet sent to their home is a gentle way to say you are thinking of them. Unlike flowers for the service, sympathy flowers are sent to a person rather than to the funeral, and they are often needed most in the quieter days and weeks that follow a loss. Ours are hand-tied in our Clifton shop and hand-delivered by our own team across Bristol.

A comforting gesture

A tied sheaf or a hand-tied bouquet in soft, calming tones is a thoughtful way to offer comfort. If the family has asked for donations instead of flowers at the funeral, a bouquet sent to the home is a kind alternative that still lets someone know they are held in your thoughts.

Made and delivered with care

We have been caring for Bristol’s flowers for more than 25 years. Every bouquet is arranged by hand and delivered by our own team, so it arrives looking its best, with a hand-written card message if you would like one.

Delivery across Bristol

We hand-deliver across Bristol (BS1–BS9 and BS16). For sympathy bouquets we can often deliver the same day if you order by 11am, Monday to Saturday. Please send flowers to a home or private address rather than a hospital ward, as most wards are unable to accept them.

How to order

Order online above, or call us on 0117 973 2440 and we will help you choose something fitting. Let us know if you would like a card message and we will write it by hand.

Common questions

What is the difference between sympathy flowers and funeral flowers?

Sympathy flowers are a bouquet sent to a grieving person at home. Funeral flowers are tributes sent to the service itself, such as wreaths and sprays. You might send one, the other, or both.

Can you deliver the same day?

Often, yes, for sympathy bouquets ordered by 11am, Monday to Saturday, within our Bristol delivery area.

Can I add a message?

Of course. Add your message when you order and we will write it by hand on a card.
