Linda Barnett used to enter local shows with floral art competitions.
"Once upon a time there was Country Girls, and that always had a spring show," she says. "There was always a horticultural show and a competition side and floral design."
FloraNZa will have six classes, which include designs such as Kiwiana, relating to anything about New Zealand, petite, where the designs have to be a certain measurement, and one around the 40th anniversary.
"We hope people take the opportunity to see something pretty or different to brighten up their day," Barnett says.
The exhibition runs from 9.30am to 4pm and is $2 entry per person.
