Thoughts of Tranquility Floor Basket

We named this one for the feeling it's meant to bring, a calm, all-white mix rather than anything bold. Hydrangea gives it more texture than a basket of roses and lilies alone would have, and we wanted something families could send without needing bright flowers or bold colors to say they're thinking of loved ones.

What's included in this all-white floor basket, one of our sympathy arrangements, from stems to delivery.

The Roses and Hydrangea in This Basket: Roses, white hydrangea, snapdragons, and lilies fill a low, wide basket, arranged full on every side by our designers. Eucalyptus and other greenery round out the shape, so the flowers never look sparse, even close up.

An All-White Palette: White carries the whole design here, a traditional sympathy choice that suits nearly any service without needing to coordinate a specific palette. Families often tell us these all-white arrangements feel easier to choose than trying to match colors to a specific service.

Sizes & Presentation: Choose Standard, Deluxe, or Premium, our highest price option with the fullest look. Each size keeps the same all-white mix, with more stems filling out the larger tiers. Deluxe is one of our most popular choices for a funeral home delivery, with Standard working well for a smaller home visit.

Occasions for This Basket: This basket suits funeral services large or small, whether a funeral home, a church service, or a home visitation, its low profile working well on a table or the floor alike. It also works well as a follow-up gift in the weeks after a service, a small way to support family members through a difficult time when you can't find the right words yourself.

Delivery: We can typically deliver arrangements like this the same day in most areas nationwide if you order by 2 PM Monday to Friday or 12:45 PM Saturday in the recipient's time zone. Tell us the service time and we'll plan around it, or route a farther delivery through our network.

• Fresh flowers like these need consistent water, and hydrangea drinks more than the roses or lilies in this mix, so check the reservoir daily if it's on display for more than a day or two.
• Roses tend to outlast the more delicate blooms in this mix, so expect the snapdragons to need attention first if it sits for several days.

• Our designers keep arrangements like this one entirely white by substituting any unavailable bloom with one of equal or greater value.

Why is this one called Thoughts of Tranquility instead of a color name?

It's simply the name we gave this particular all-white design when we first built it, and it's stuck ever since.

Will the hydrangea wilt before the rest of the basket?

Hydrangea can droop first if it runs low on water, so keep the reservoir topped off and it should keep pace with the roses and lilies, since flowers this fresh respond well to a quick trim and a full vase.
