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.

'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.'
