Understanding the Different Types of Funeral Flowers

Ward’s Florist offers a variety of funeral arrangements suitable for different types of services:

  1. Standing Sprays & Floor Baskets
    Elegant and formal, these large displays are placed on easels or beside the casket. They often feature lilies, roses, and seasonal blooms and are delivered directly to the funeral home.

  2. Casket Sprays
    Designed to rest on top of the casket, these lush arrangements can be full-length or half-size. Our designers ensure each casket spray is beautifully coordinated and delivered on time.

  3. Urn & Cremation Flowers
    For cremation services, we create custom urn wreaths, garlands, and accent arrangements featuring orchids, roses, lilies, and other meaningful blooms.

  4. Wreaths & Crosses
    Wreaths symbolize eternal life, while cross-shaped designs are traditional in Christian services. Both can be delivered to the funeral home, church, or cemetery.

  5. Sympathy Bouquets for the Home
    Thoughtful vase arrangements, potted plants, or mixed bouquets can be sent directly to a family’s home to provide comfort after the service.
