PLANT SALES ON 12 MAY 2012

Saturday 12 May was the day for our Annual Plant Sale at the Red Cross Hall, Oxted.

Our thanks to those members who provided the stock and assisted with the sales. Here are a few pictures of the event.

and his talk is 
MY WONDERFUL 
LIFE IN FLOWERS  proved to be a hit at our meeting on Wednesday 4 April. The floral arrangement seemed to develop almost by magic. 

David says "My work has always been in the decorating side of flowers rather than in a shop or demonstrating, so I tell of my experiences in that field , the disasters and mishaps during the build of a job , that most people are not aware of and just see the final product, the nightmare clients and generally the work/ parties I have been involved with. I will bring along some photos of work I have produced over the years too."
