Show challenge for gardeners
Wednesday 14th March 2007, 10:54AM GMT.
Calling all members of local gardening groups and societies. We’re setting you a challenge which could place you centre stage at this year’s Shrewsbury Flower Show.
We’re throwing down the gauntlet to amateur horticultural groups within our circulation area to design and create a special themed garden that will take pride of place in the 120th anniversary show’s massive Quarry Marquee on Friday and Saturday, August 10 and 11.To make the going easier, we’ll be throwing in a £750 cash prize to the winners to help purchase any additional planting stock to help bring their design to life.
We’re looking for cleverly crafted garden designs that are original, inspirational and creative in their interpretation of the competition’s theme, “Community”.
Full information and entry details are available by clicking here.
Good luck!
