Have a look at our fragrant photo collection from the Sunderland Echo archives. It is filled with florists we’ve seen over the years.
If you got your bouquets from Clara’s, Flowers in the Park, Nutmans, Dragonfly or the Flower Rooms, this is the place for you.
We have retro scenes from them all and plenty more besides in a picture spread from 2004 to 2020.
