Our Gardens of the Year competition is open for entries until 10 June 2024, which means there’s still plenty of time to assess your space, make any final design or planting tweaks, and send your photos in via our entry form at GardenersWorld.com/gardencompetition. We’ll need 6-10 images of your outdoor space to help us choose our six finalists, each of which will receive a professional photoshoot.
What we’re looking for
The initial selection criteria are simple and likely in line with how you’ve put your garden together anyway, but as a heads-up we’re looking for creative use of the available space, how you’ve used, combined and grown your plants, the overall atmosphere created by the garden design or layout, and the use of materials. How you photograph your space is also a major factor, and can really help its character to shine through.
