Liz Ricci of Flower Temple does for floristry what Nigella Lawson and Jamie Oliver do for cooking, inspiring passion in the craft and then teaching others how to match it (or at least give it a good crack).

If plonking cut stems into that vase at home doesn’t give quite the right effect, consider this: Flower Temple has just launched a series of six workshops – each focusing on a different aspect of popular floristry.

Maybe wedding bells are in the air. Or maybe you’re flipping through pages of Vogue Living, wondering how the hell you’re going to re-create that immaculate Christmas table setting. Wonder no more.

The six workshops cover – a Wedding Series, a Fashion Series, a Flower Arranging for Home Series, a Botanical Series, a Sisko Chocolates Series and a Christmas Series workshop.

They make great gift ideas with a difference – for your best friend, your sister, even your mum. Then of course, there’s you – an old-school component in a well-rounded education to help you become what Jane Austen used to call ‘an accomplished woman’. Or you can send your man and let him take care of all those darling buds.
