I am passionate about the subject and there is always more to learn! I love passing on my knowledge, expertise, ideas and advice to people, who, I hope, will come to appreciate this subject as much as I do.

I have always enjoyed flowers. My late mother was a Constance Spry trained arranger and after joining a Flower Club, my enthusiasm has just grown and continues to grow.
What other passions do you have?
Gardening, knitting, reading and learning new skills to enhance my flower arranging capabilities.
