EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the enchanting world of Flower Culture in the Scilly Isles, as depicted in this photograph from circa 1910. The image transports us back in time to an era when the cultivation of flowers was a thriving industry on these idyllic islands located off the southwest coast of England. The scene unfolds in a quaint packing house, where the delicate blooms of narcissi and daffodils are carefully tended to and prepared for their journey to markets and flower shows. The greenhouse in the background is a testament to the meticulous care and dedication that went into growing these beautiful flowers in the temperate climate of the Scilly Isles. The air is filled with the sweet fragrance of the blossoms, and the workers move gracefully among the rows of plants, their faces etched with concentration and pride. The pinks, a popular variety of carnation, are arranged neatly in baskets, ready to be cut and arranged for display. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history of flower cultivation on the Scilly Isles, which was once a thriving industry that attracted visitors from all over the world. The islands' mild climate, abundant rainfall, and unique geology made them an ideal location for growing a wide variety of flowers, including narcissus, daffodils, and pinks. As we gaze at this image, we are transported back to a time when the beauty of nature was celebrated and cherished, and the simple act of growing and arranging flowers was an art form in and of itself. The Scilly Isles continue to be a haven for flower lovers and horticulturists, and this photograph serves as a reminder of the rich history and cultural significance of the flower industry on these enchanting islands.
