The categories are:
Best front or back garden
Most environmentally friendly garden
Best communal garden
Best balcony
Best window box
Best indoor garden
Best young gardener U-14
Cllr Ken Mulholland Deputy Portfolio Holder for Housing, said: “After the last year, everyone is more aware of the importance of green spaces, big and small, which is why I am so delighted to be involved in Ashford in Bloom. We have more categories this year, meaning even more residents can get involved.
