2024 Garden Competition Winners
Garden Competition categories:
Balcony/Courtyard
For small spaces with their garden potential maximised through the use of pots, planter boxes, or walled gardens which may include pots, planter boxes and ornaments. These are areas where gardeners are challenged by limited space and lots of hard surfaces.
Indoor Garden
From a small collection of pots in the corner to a full-scale atrium, get creative with your indoor plants and show the judge your most spectacular room.
Most Beautiful Garden
From small to large scale gardens, with native habitats or structured formal gardens, we want to see who has the most beautiful garden in North Sydney.
Children’s Garden
This is for gardens created or cared for by a child or group of children. Think childcare centres, schools or just a family backyard with a gardening space dedicated to the kids.
Native Habitat Garden
Have you been demonstrating environmental awareness and creating wildlife habitats with lots of native plants and other habitat features such as hollows, frog ponds and dense undergrowth? This category is for you.
Edible Garden – Private
For any garden that focuses on producing food. From small balconies with potted herbs to full-size vegetable plots and orchards, show the judge what your household is producing.
Edible Garden – Community
Do you have members of the community working together to produce food for sharing? It doesn't matter is it's on public or privately owned land, we want to see you demonstrate group effort and reward.
Lex and Ruby Graham Prize – Individual
For an individual that is maintaining or beautifying public land.
Lex and Ruby Graham Prize – Group
For public areas that are being maintained or beautified by groups of residents.
