How to impress our judges.
 
If you're entering for the first time – here are a few tips on what the judges will be looking for...
 
General Appearance: How does the garden look overall -  Does it look tidy -  Does it look full
 
Continuity: How long will the plants flowers last  - Will they all flower and die at the same time -  Will different plants  continue to show colour and life throughout the year
 
Variety: Is there a good variety of plants or are they all the same
 
Weed Control: Are there any weeds If so, to what degree
 
Pests & Diseases: Are plants covered in insects or affected by  disease If so, to what degree
