Do you have the best roses and the most beautiful flowering baskets which can be seen from people walking past your garden?
You could be recognised as having the best garden in your ward by entering the Royal Borough of Windsor & Maidenhead’s Garden in Bloom Competition.
Nominations are open now.
The popular Mayoral competition in the Royal Borough is back for another year.
Residents can nominate their own gardens or a neighbour’s. Or if you see another beautiful garden which brings you joy, you could take a note of the address it is and nominate it.
Nominations can be made here and must be made before 14 July. We would also love to see pictures of them.
Ward councillors can also nominate gardens they see when out and about in their wards. The winners and runners up in each ward will be presented with a rosette and a Braywick Heath Nursery voucher. All nominees will receive a certificate.
The competition is open to every garden visible to passers-by who can see it from the pavement or road.
The Mayor, Councillor Neil Knowles, said: “We have some very talented gardeners in our borough.
“It makes such a difference going round all the wards in the borough seeing the effort you put into your gardens.
“We want you to know your efforts to make your gardens beautiful do not go unnoticed. And as a result, they improve the appearance of the borough, making it a more pleasant place to live.
“A prize just to say congratulations is a small token of our appreciation.
“We look forward to seeing all the nominations.”
Nominations can also made by emailing gib@rbwm.gov.uk or by post to “Garden in Bloom”, c/o Mayor’s Parlour, Town Hall, St Ives Road, Maidenhead SL6 1RF.
