Speaker inspired Epworth Flower Club members


Popular, returning, demonstrator, Di Smith, from Market Rasen inspired members with a kaleidoscope of exotic arrangements from around the world.
Di’s passion for her subject became obvious as she worked effortlessly on designs, ranging from a minimalist Japanese creation, featuring a giant white phalaenopsis orchid with turquoise wool and sticks to a flamboyant South African design of tropical leaves mixed with burgundy anthuriums, shocking pink gerbera and purple statis. Humour was never far away as she kept her audience entertained with a constant stream of interesting and often hilarious anecdotes in her inimitable deadpan manner.
