Lytchett & Upton Floral Group celebrated their 65th Anniversary with a demonstration and workshop with Hans Haverkamp. The demonstration, at Lytchett Minster School delighted the audience on Friday evening with his relaxed style and fabulous designs. On Saturday Hans tutored a well attended workshop using some of his current favourite materials, T- grass and bear grass. The pupils thoroughly enjoyed the day. Congratulations to all at Lytchett and Upton on their anniversary and for  organising these lovely events.

 

 

We had a very entertaining morning yesterday from 5 trainee demonstrators, 3 of which are Dorset & Guernsey Area members. They demonstrated 2 designs each from their portfolios for their mock test. We were delighted to have a good audience and hope members will come and support them all on 1st September when they take their test. Here’s a sneaky look into one or two of their flower boxes.
