Description:
Saundersfoot in Bloom is inviting residents and business owners in the seaside village to show off their floral delights and enter this year’s Garden Competition. <br/>The format is similar to previous years but there are new classes for Wildlife Champion - open to all gardens where the design, choice of plants and use of space is especially welcoming to wildlife and a Young Gardener Award - for entrants under 18.<br/>“Our ‘Garden Competition’ is free to enter, encouraging everyone from amateur gardeners to seasoned pros to showcase their gardening achievements,” said Julie Davies from Saundersfoot in Bloom. <br/>“If you’re worried that you haven’t got an RHS Chelsea show garden - then please don’t - we want to see what you love about gardening and how you have used your space.”<br/>Entry forms can be picked up in the village from Saundersfoot Library, The Salty Spaniel and Ecoast or entrants can get in touch at the Saundersfoot in Bloom Facebook page and the organisers will get a form to you.
