Award-winning florist gives home a blooming good show

Mr Denyer recreated part of Interflora’s gold medal winning exhibit for residents at Headingley Hall care come after an employee won his visit in a competition on behalf of the 70 residents.

His show exhibit – A Sense of Perspective –featured a series of nine stylised doorways framing each other to provide the impression of perspective.

Each was adorned with hundreds of flowers in different colours and the design was tested using a sample frame at his own shop.
