The competition looks to celebrate the talent and exceptional horticultural skills of the residents and organisations of Aylesbury, showcasing the impressive level of ingenuity and passion for gardening that the town has to offer, the town council says.

Winners were confirmed at an awards ceremony held at Aylesbury’s Railway Club on Wednesday. Aylesbury Mayor, Councillor Sherrilyn Bateman, presented the winners with their awards.

It was also revealed by the town council that this year’s judging panel was made up of local gardening experts: Sue Wright, Claire De Carle, Jane Lydall, Clare Butler and Barbara Pawlicka.

In the residents category Mr and Mrs Quanico were crowned as the winners and Poplar Grove Practice won in the organisation category.

Councillor Bateman said at the ceremony: “Every garden was individual in some way and all of them a representation of many hours of love and hard work. Everything from tropical plants and collections of Dalias through to various types of grasses, ferns and mature trees.”
