LISA Fowler from Tatworth is getting ready for the Chelsea Flower Show.
A TALENTED floral arranger from Tatworth is preparing to take on the best in the country at the Chelsea Flower Show.
Lisa Fowler has qualified for the prestigious competition to be held later this year after winning through a regional heat.
Lisa, 32, who works at Eden Floral Design in Taunton, is one of 16 finalists from across the country in the Florist of the Year category.
She said: “I attended a qualifying event in Cornwall where the brief was to design a floral arrangement with an Olympic theme.
"I used orchids and primroses to create a design incorporating the Olympic rings and thankfully I have been chosen for the final. I am very excited and nervous to be in the final.
"I will get the brief a month before and have to take along a design I think can win.”
