‘Beautiful’ flower displays have been created at Ely Cathedral to honour The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee this bank holiday weekend (June 2-5).
The displays, created by ‘talented’ local flower arrangers, reflect key events, interests and pursuits in Her Majesty’s life.
These include:
-
United Kingdom – England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales by Littleport & District Flower Club
-
Horses, racing and the countryside by Burwell & District Flower Club
-
The Commonwealth by City of Ely Flower Club
-
The Royal Wedding in 1947 by Cambridge Flower Club
-
The Royal Yacht Britannia by Wisbech Flower Arrangers
-
Crown and Orb by Caroline Barnes
Visitors will be able to see the displays in the Lady Chapel until Sunday (June 5).
Since Ely Cathedral posted a gallery of the flower arrangements on Facebook, many individuals have been commenting.
Jane said: “Looks like the flower arranging team have done Ely proud. They look gorgeous.”
Regina added: “They are so beautiful. Well done to all the people who have worked so hard to create these beautiful flower stories.”
