The Schofield family: 2020

Judges’ Choice

The Schofields transforme­d a bramble-covered hillside on the Scottish coast, into a gorgeous family garden, bursting with flowers and vegetables. “Entering the competitio­n has been one of the best decisions we ever made! Never in our wildest dreams did we think our garden would win. Hearing the encouragin­g words from the judges, has really given us a boost of confidence.”

Frank Bowdler:

2019 Judges’ Choice Frank has created a plant-lover’s paradise, filling his small garden in Greater Manchester with a profusion of clematis, lilies, ferns and much more.

“The best thing about winning was knowing my garden was liked by people in the know. It has encouraged me to help others and, because I won, people ask for advice. I’ve been given the opportunit­y to design the local church garden, and this has increased my enthusiasm.”

Wayne Amiel:

2018 Judges’ Choice Wayne turned his narrow London plot into a tropical haven. The riot of textures, bold shapes and colours transports you to distant lands.

“I didn’t dream I could ever win, so you never know, it could be your garden that wins! We need to see more entries that reflect the incredible diversity of gardens and gardeners. There have been so many highlights since I entered – the people I’ve met, and the incredible prize.”
