floral spray

Decorative bloom cluster

A floral spray is an arrangement of cut flowers and greenery designed to be displayed flat or at an angle, typically used at funerals and memorial services.

Unlike a bouquet, which is gathered in a rounded shape, a spray fans outward in a more elongated form: The casket was covered with a floral spray of white lilies.

Sprays may also decorate altars or other ceremonial settings.
