This year saw over 300 entries to the council run competition from across the borough, with the winners walking away with a £25 voucher for Braywick Heath Nurseries.

The annual competition aims to encourage more people to become more interested in horticulture and use their skills to get creative in their garden - which also helps brighten up their neighbourhood.

Gardens that are visible from a footpath or road were eligible for entry, with residents and passers-by encouraged to nominate their favourite garden in their own wards.

Winning gardens and a display at the following locations were selected:

  • St George’s Lane, Ascot
  • Portlock Road, Maidenhead
  • Chestnut View, Old Mill Lane, Bray
  • Perrycroft, Windsor
  • Queens Court Care Home, Windsor
  • Lillibrooke Crescent, Cox Green
  • Fairfield Avenue, Datchet
  • Champney Hall, Horton (flower display)
  • Prince Consort Gardens, Windsor
  • Queen’s Close, Old Windsor
  • Astor Close, Maidenhead
  • Highway Road, Maidenhead
  • Maidenhead Court Park, Maidenhead

The Mayor, Councillor Simon Bond, said: “Well done to all who entered – and thank you to all the gardeners in the Royal Borough for your passion and dedication, you have all done your communities proud.

“The Garden in Bloom competition is the council’s way of recognising the talent and effort put into gardening by residents to make their neighbourhoods beautiful.

“I was particularly impressed with the residents of Datchet, Horton and Wraysbury who, not having their own gardens, came together to create crochet flowers as part of the competition.”

The council is grateful to Housing Solutions, Berkeley Group and Silva Homes for their sponsorship of the competition.
