EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the George Garland Collection, we are transported back to the Fittleworth Bulb Show of 1939. The image captures a moment frozen in time, as four distinguished gentlemen stand before a table adorned with an array of vibrant daffodils. With an air of seriousness and expertise, they meticulously judge each bloom, their discerning eyes searching for perfection. Surrounding them are countless other entries eagerly awaiting inspection. The room is filled with anticipation and excitement as participants anxiously await the verdict on their carefully nurtured flowers. Each blossom represents hours of dedication and love poured into its growth - a testament to the passion that these individuals have for horticulture. The scene exudes nostalgia, transporting us to a simpler era where community events like this were cherished moments of connection and celebration. It reminds us of our shared human desire to appreciate nature's beauty and showcase our achievements. Preserved by West Sussex County Council's Record Office, this photograph offers us a glimpse into history while also serving as a reminder that amidst chaos or uncertainty, there will always be spaces where people can come together to celebrate life's simple joys – in this case, through the artistry found within petals delicately unfurling under careful cultivation.
