Su is at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show, covering the floristry competitions and taking in the floral highlights along the way.
The annual RHS Young Florist and Florist of the Year competitions are held in the Great Pavilion at Chelsea. I'm very lucky to have the job on behalf of Interflora to cover these two exciting events. First up is the RHS Young Florist of the Year, which was won by Ellouise Hasler-Stott from Kent. The schedule was to design a spring floral throne.

Nervous competitors waiting to hear the results!
Also loved this one by Victoria Brennan which won a Silver medal.
'Popular among florists and flower arrangers 'Cut Flowers' is a practical catalogue containing straightforward information on how to care for and condition over 150 varieties of fresh cut flowers.
Pros: It includes easy-to-follow care instructions, flower availability, colour range and vase life, tips on simple arranging, flower suitability for wedding work, an index of common names and a mini floral miscellany.
Cons: A list of 150 gives a good overview, but no book would be big enough to include every commercially grown flower, so you can't use it for specific product names or really wild finds.'
