Summary
A salted paper print on a large sheet of heavy white paper, comprising 3 images. The first depicts a bunch of flowers in a white jug, that is itself decorated with a flower (possibly a rose). The second depicts 3 plants growing up canes, possibly outside or in a greenhouse. The final image depicts 3 flowers/bunches of flowers in 3 transparent containers - probably bottles, sitting on a perforated surface. This, combined with the shadows on the right hand side suggest that it was taken in a greenhouse. Markings: Recto, handwritten in pencil beneath the image: on the left: "Lacock; Horticulture" and on the right: "A Hope-Cross 2013".
