A BLOOMING GOOD DAY OUT THE QUEEN REVISITS HER CORONATION BEFORE SWAPPING MEMORIES OF HER FATHER

Her Majesty met Shane Connolly at the Garden Museum in London while opening the annual British Flowers Week exhibition. The florist created the spectacular display of British-grown flowers and foliage that adorned the altar and other parts of the abbey, using only sustainably grown blooms at the request of Their Majesties.

After Shane presented her with a bouquet of hand-tied flowers picked from his own garden, Camilla gave him a gift – a photograph of her with the King – as a token of her appreciation.

“It’s just a very small present for the wonderful job you did at the coronation,” she said. “They were so beautiful. I didn’t have a lot of chance to look at them [on the day], but have studied them very carefully since and they were absolutely wonderful, especially around the Tomb of the Unknown Warrior.

“That was just absolutely perfect. This is just a small thank-you from me.”

NATURE’S WONDERS 

Delivering a speech to his fellow guests, Shane said: “Your Majesties’ support of British-grown flowers has never faltered. As gardeners, you also appreciate the vagaries of using them; the exciting unpredictability and the happy surprises that result.
