New entrants shortlisted for the floral finals!

Posted

We’ve welcomed the judges from South & South East in Bloom for their annual visit and are now well in to the judging of the local competition for 2017. We have had a fantastic number of excellent entries this year – including our largest number nominated by local residents. Initial judging has been very difficult but we are delighted to announce our finalists…

Front Garden

  • 9 Bramber Avenue
  • 56 Spierbridge Road
  • Arosa, Wisborough Lane
  • Smugglers Hut, Greyfriars Lane
  • The Horsecroft, Greyfriars Lane

Community Area

  • Bramber Avenue
  • Eastbrook Court, Manleys Hill
  • Hanover Walk
  • Orchard Gardens

Final judging will be completed by Tom Brown, Head Gardener at Parham House, and our winners will be announced at our annual awards ceremony in September where we will also be announcing the winners of our first scarecrow competition and the allotment and business categories. Plus there’s the small matter of our own entry in to the regional competition… fingers crossed!!

Once again we would like to thank all of the local businesses that have supported our effort this year and our fantastic volunteers without whom we are sure Storrington would be a duller place.

With thanks to our sponsors

And a BIG thanks to all our volunteers and local businesses without whom none of this would be possible.
