Our judges
Our Grounds Maintenance Group - who look at the Trust's grounds and make sure they're up to our standards - decided our winners.
They looked at your garden's visual impact, originality, your time and effort, and the consideration that you've given to both the wildlife and surrounding environment.
We had over 50 entries to the competition and - don't worry - we'll be running it again next year.
Grand Prize
In first place overall, Paul Hooley wowed us with his garden.
