An intricate floral sculpture of a saxophone is displayed against a clean, white backdrop, its vivid colouring and meticulous construction drawing the viewer in. The entire instrument is composed of tightly massed yellow chrysanthemums, each tiny bloom carefully aligned to create a consistent, cushion-like texture that follows the smooth curves from the mouthpiece, along the neck, down the body, and out to the flared bell. This uniform field of bright yellow is punctuated by clusters of small deep red roses and rosebuds, deliberately positioned along the length of the saxophone to imitate the layout of keys, valves, and decorative fittings. Where the instrument would naturally cast shadows, the florist has blended in slender trails of dark, glossy foliage, possibly ivy or similar greenery, to contour the edges and give the arrangement a sense of dimensionality and realism. Around the upper left, near the mouthpiece area, a few delicate wires and thin stems arc gently upward, hinting at a reed or structural support, yet they are so discreet that the viewer's attention remains fixed on the flowers. The white background accentuates every hue, making the yellow appear even more radiant and the red roses more poignant, as if symbolising cherished memories and heartfelt emotions. This floral saxophone, imagined resting at the front of a chapel or crematorium service in Woodside, speaks of a life filled with rhythm, melody, and joy. It might have been chosen for a jazz musician, a beloved band member from a local Woodside group, or someone who simply loved the sound of live music drifting through neighbourhood streets, turning farewell into a celebration of the music they leave behind.

A full-length saxophone crafted entirely from fresh flowers stands out crisply against a pure white background, showcasing both floristry skill and a deep sense of tribute. The main body of the saxophone is densely covered with small, bright yellow chrysanthemum blooms, set so close together that they create an almost fabric-like layer of colour, with no gaps between petals. The curve of the neck and the sweep of the bell are accurately followed, giving the arrangement a realistic, sculptural quality. Scattered along this yellow expanse are numerous tiny red rosebuds and miniature roses, placed thoughtfully to mark where the instrument's keys and mechanisms would naturally sit, so that the eye traces a path down the instrument much as a melody would flow. Slender threads of rich green foliage weave along the outer edges, particularly round the neck and lower body, softening the outline and bringing a gentle, natural movement to the piece. Close to the top, near where a mouthpiece would be, a few fine green and metallic wires emerge, quietly supporting the structure while suggesting the finer details of the sax. The overall effect is both warm and dignified: yellow symbolising joy and remembrance, red evoking love and respect, and the careful form capturing the essence of music itself. Imagined as part of a funeral or memorial service in Woodside, this design would feel especially fitting for a jazz lover, brass band musician, or anyone remembered for their lively spirit and love of song, offering a distinctive, personal farewell from family and friends. In this photograph, a large floral tribute in the unmistakable shape of a saxophone appears against a luminous white background, its details carefully rendered in fresh blooms. The body of the saxophone is entirely composed of yellow chrysanthemums placed tightly side by side, creating a dense, textured surface that suggests both softness and strength. The gentle bend of the neck, the sweep of the main tube, and the pronounced flare of the bell are all faithfully reproduced, so that the instrument's outline feels instantly familiar. Down the face of the design, where metal keys and tone holes would usually be seen, run graceful trails of orange-red spray roses. These miniature roses, some in bud and others just opening, provide striking contrast and rhythm along the yellow base, like musical notes picked out on a page. Interwoven among them, small tufts of fresh green foliage add an extra layer of depth, their natural tones softening the strong colour combination. Discreet lengths of slender green floral wire can be glimpsed beneath the flowers, a quiet reminder of the precise workmanship required to maintain such a complex three-dimensional form. A faint shadow beneath the arrangement hints that it is slightly raised, perhaps resting on a stand ready for delivery to a Woodside church or crematorium. Created with the thoughtfulness of a local florist who understands how powerful a motif music can be in times of farewell, this floral saxophone feels like a final, gentle performance. It is a fitting choice for saying goodbye to a music lover or musician, evoking memories of shared songs, rehearsals, and concerts that once filled the neighbourhood with sound.
