“I was seven years old and Mum took us to a local park where they were holding a flower show. I went inside the tent and the spark just hit me to the core.”
Born and raised in Warwick, Simon has been fascinated by flowers ever since he was seven years old and feels very lucky that he is able to work with them. He loves the buzz of creating dreams and magical settings within a world where everything’s possible, and the words, “can’t do” are never uttered!
“I am just writing to say how universally admired your flower arrangements were at the reception following the marriage of the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall on Saturday. They were quite magnificent and made an immense contribution to the decoration and atmosphere of the reception.”
