Blacktown City Mayor Stephen Bali MP said the popular competition was a great opportunity for everyone to showcase their gardening skills from beginners through to experts.

“All the 2018 competitors had beautiful gardens to showcase and I’m eager to see what our residents have been working on this year.
“I encourage you all to apply no matter what level your gardening skills are.”
Each entry will be judged on aspects including design, construction, maintenance and sustainability, and will be in the running to win a number of cash prizes.
