For the first time since 2019, Wight In Bloom will be celebrating the Isle of Wight’s horticultural talents this summer, and we’re being asked to join in.
Categories in the popular Wight In Bloom competition range from small front gardens, pubs and businesses, to the gardens of large visitor attractions, with criteria that include innovation, sustainability and design of space.
Nominate yourself or a neighbour
Residents and businesses can nominate themselves or a neighbour for Wight In Bloom online or by picking up an entry form at garden centres across the Island.
The deadline for entries is 12th June, and judging takes place between 15th June – 1st July.
Celebration event at Northwood House
Winners will be recognised at a celebration event at the beautiful Northwood House in Cowes, where gardening guru and Wight In Bloom Patron, Alan Titchmarsh MBE will be handing out awards.
