Sympathy
Here at Karl Welsh Floral Design, we understand the importance of making your final tribute to a loved one something special. From a simple sheaf to a traditional wreath or a full blossoming coffin spray, we can make the most beautiful tribute to suit your requirements.
Choosing the right flowers
Coffin Sprays are usually selected by close family members. In some cases, a theme for the funeral flowers may be requested, such as a colour scheme or perhaps a specific variety of flower.
Karl Welsh Floral Design caters for a wide variety of colour themes and floral schemes across a range of different funeral tributes and should cater to every requirement and budget. There are many types of funeral and sympathy flowers to choose from.
Coffin Sprays
Coffin/Casket Sprays sometimes referred to as Double Ended or Funeral Sprays are designed to adorn Coffins and Caskets. These types of sprays are usually chosen by close family or the person who is liaising with the funeral directors regarding the funeral arrangements. Our Coffin Sprays are available in a wide range of styles, colours and sizes designed to suit your specific requirements.
Posies and Baskets
Posies and Baskets come in a versatile variety of traditional and contemporary designs and can be sent directly to a funeral or sent as a tribute gift to a bereaved family. The ‘Posy’ is traditionally circular in shape allowing both flowers and foliage to be displayed perfectly from all angles.
Tied Sheaf
Hand tied Sheaves are perfect for sending direct to a funeral and can be sent to a home address after a funeral, a fitting alternative to the regular cellophane wrapped bouquet.
Wreaths
Floral wreaths are probably the best known of funeral and sympathy tributes, their ornate circular design is extremely versatile and are perfect for sending direct to a funeral as a mark of respect. Available in both contemporary and traditional designs, our wreaths come in a wide variety of styles, colours and sizes.
Hearts
Sending a floral heart tribute to a funeral makes a deeply personal statement and is indicative of the love and compassion felt by immediate family or the closely bereaved. Our beautiful range of heart designs come in a tasteful variety of shapes, colours and sizes.
Funeral Crosses

Our Funeral Crosses are available in a variety of beautiful colours, shapes and sizes that will suit most budgets.
