Jane Evans Memorial Service

A memorial service will be held on Saturday 16th June at the Nelson Cathedral, for well known Nelson artist Jane Evans.

Jane passed away at her home in Nelson on Friday 8th of June.

One of our customers ordered from us for small flower posies in bright colours with fragrant flowers to be sent to Jane every two or three days over the last few weeks of her life.

Our customer told us that Jane had the flowers all around her and enjoyed and appreciated them.     It has been a great pleasure for Flowers 4 Nelson to provide these flowers, and to help make Jane’s last days a little better.

ANZAC Day

I was so proud of Flowers 4 Nelson’s  ANZAC wreaths at the dawn service in Nelson this morning.           Local MP for Nelson, Nick Smith and several local organisations laid wreaths I had made and they really stood out as being beautiful and professional.

The wreaths were full of flowers and looked so much livelier and vibrant than the others.ANZAC wreaths for Nelson memorial services

Spring bulb planting time

At Flowers 4 Nelson, we are now starting to plant our spring bulbs to produce the flowers for your spring bouquets.   Freesia, Anemone, Ranunculus and Hyacinth bulbs are all being planted at the moment and we will stagger the planting dates over the next two months to hopefully provide a continuous supply of the blooms for  floral work.
