So pleased to see Rebecca Hough from East Durham College win a gold medal and RHS Chelsea Florist of the Year.
The second stage of the floristry competition at RHS Chelsea saw 16 finalists battle it out for the prestigious title. It was won by the lovely, and talented Rebecca Hough a lecturer at East Durham College who had crowdfunded her and her students, Allan Raby and Dean Sharpe to be able to afford the materials and expense of travelling and staying in London.

Su has created a handbook that should be an essential piece of equipment for every floral art/floristry/gardening student in the world not to mention florists, flower arrangers, brides and hobbyists too. This little book covers more than 150 flower varieties in normal use for arranging and tells you about availability, vase life, tips on arranging in the home and suitability for weddings etc. We have watched in admiration as Su tackled this very necessary subject matter and have been privileged to watch the project's development. The photography by Mark Follon is quite superb!
