A HEREFORDSHIRE flower farmer has remembered the day her daughter met the Queen.
Rozanne Delamore, the owner of the Ledbury Flower Farmer, shared a photo of a dear memory when her daughter Tilly Delamore was handed home grown flowers by the Queen.
Tilly had the honour at the Great Windsor Park in December 2014 during a working dog’s trial.
Peter Clayton stood next to Tilly and he was the head keeper on the estate at the time.

The flowers were pink hydrangeas, silt tassel bush and viburnum bodnantense dawn from the family’s garden before she started growing flowers to sell.
“I think we were all snapping away with phone and cameras,” said Ms Delamore.
“It was a bitterly cold day that had over run but she still took the time to make Tilly feel special with a smile and chat despite being hungry and kept waiting.”
The family have kept the red coat Tilly was wearing on the day and have fond memories of their conversation, she said.
