We were delighted to welcome Barbara Collins back to Bedford this month. It was also good to see so many members and visitors at our first demonstration evening of 2024. Daffodils and polyanthus on the stage welcomed us at the beginning of the evening and we knew that Barbara’s ‘The Joys of Spring’ presentation would not disappoint.
Barbara kept us entertained and also gave us many teaching tips as she produced six beautiful, inspirational but very different designs. We celebrated the complete season; from the early Spring garden to Mother’s Day through to Easter.
The hope of Spring was translated through the joyful bright flowers including hyacinths, tulips, sweet williams, irises, ornithogalum, lilies, carnations and a lovely green dianthus kiwi mellow together with a very wide variety of foliage much from Barbara’s garden.
Thank you Barbara for such an enjoyable evening; thank you also for allowing us to publish pictures of your designs.
