Annual Garden Competition Results 2008
Final judging results 2008
"A great deal of hard work had gone into each of the gardens we visited and it was obvious that so many residents across the county take real pride in their gardens. Helping with the judging was tough, but a pleasure. Colourful, well presented gardens definitely play a part in brightening up our communities and my congratulations go to all the winners." - Provost Stewart
The competition trophies, certificates and prizes will be presented at the reception hosted by Provost Stewart at Kilncraigs on 5th September 2008.
