Peonies and a pavé of pinks.
Two blush pink and one deep crimson peony surrounded by a velvet carpet of clove pinks (aka Sweet William) in white, red, pink and the same alizarin crimson. The bouquet is in a patterned Portuguese jug and matching bowl.

In our latest episode, we're so lucky to be able to tell the story of the 1926 General Strike using the voices of workers involved. People like Betty Harrison who began work in Bradford's textile industry when she was just 13. More here: www.patreon.com/posts/e118-1... #GeneralStrike100
