New for 2010 Petersham Nurseries resident florist and stylist Ronny de Koning is running a Seasonal Flower Arranging for the festival on Tuesday 15th June 2010, 10am – 1pm.

In the delightful setting of our glasshouse you will discover how to make arrangements and bouquets using seasonally available flowers and foliage.  Over the course of the morning Ronny will share his knowledge and experience, demonstrating florist’s techniques and then working with you on your own creation to take home.  The group will be using seasonally available flowers and foliage available from the Petersham Nurseries cutting garden, where we can access an abundance of fragrant, pesticide-free and beautiful ‘low plant mile’ flowers.  An informative, relaxing and sociable morning is guaranteed.

Tickets: £55 per person (to include tea/coffee and cake, all materials and container for your arrangement to take home).

Places are limited, so do book ahead.
