The Victoria In Bloom garden competition recognises and rewards the hard work of gardeners who develop and care for their gardens, either at home or in public spaces.
In 2008, the competition specifically recognises the efforts of tenants caring for their gardens in drought conditions and while water restrictions apply.
It is organised by the Department of Human Services, Office of Housing, and all tenants living in public and community-managed housing across Victoria can enter.
You can enter your private or community garden in any one of the following categories:
• best water wise household garden
• best water wise common area garden
• best water wise balcony or small enclosed garden
• best edible water wise garden
• best water wise indoor garden including pots and aquariums
• most creative water wise garden (supported by Royal Botanic Gardens)
• individual water wise plot (community gardens)
There will be a number of Victoria In Bloom winners in each Department of Human Services region, and a statewide winner in each category.
Prizes:
• Regional winners - $50 gift voucher.
• Statewide winners - $100 gift voucher.
Statewide winners will be invited to an award ceremony at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Melbourne.
