Bromsgrove Flower Club

Bromsgrove Flower Club Club Members have the opportunity to enter the monthly flower arranging competition which has a different theme each month.

We are affiliated to the National Association of Flower Arrangement Societies of Great Britain (NAFAS), and are part of the Three Counties and South Wales Area of NAFAS. Anyone who enters is entitled to a free raffle ticket, and points are awarded in the novice, intermediate and advanced classes. At the end of the year, the overall winners in each class are awarded a silver cup or salver. There is

also a "Flower of the Month" Competition, where Members can enter a flower from their own gardens. There are always some beautiful and often unusual flowers on display. We also have a Sales Table, where members and visitors can buy flower arranging accessories such as floral foam and other items at very reasonable prices, and there is also a very successful Bring and Buy table, where unusual treasures can often be found! We are a very friendly group, and we do hope you will come and join us for a most enjoyable afternoon. New members and visitors are always made most welcome, (you don't have to live in Bromsgrove!), and of course, we hope you will enjoy your visit enough to want to become a member of the Society!
