Jubilee window display

Vicki made an excellent job today putting together our Jubilee themed window display.

 

The window was divided into two sections with modern day and 1950’s theme

 

We would like to say a big thank you to Antiques of Fareham, who are just down the road from us in West Street for letting us use some of their items in the 1950’s section. 

 

The range of flower available to florists then was nothing like what we have now, the florists used locally grown flowers which had limited availability.  Market gardens and local nurseries provided flowers such as Carnations, Chrysanthemums, Gladioli, Dahlias and in the summer months Sweet peas and Sweet Williams.  

At Rawsons we like to support local business by sourcing  locally grown flowers and plants whenever we can, the quality is superb and they are lovely and fresh.

 

So which display do you like the best – the modern day or the 1950’s?

 

Have a great Jubilee holiday weekend.

 

Best wishes

Sheryl and the team!
