Thornhill in Bloom 2008

Thornhill residents had their gardens spick and span this week for the judging of Thornhill in Bloom, Thornhill Plus You's annual gardening competition, which encourages residents to transform areas in the community into colourful and vibrant ‘green' spaces.

Judges, Christine Joy, Customer Services Supervisor at Haskins, Vanessa Hillman, resident and keen gardener, Bob Reeve, Thornhill Tidy Team Coordinator and Kate Martin, judge of Southampton in Bloom, were especially impressed with how residents were able to maintain the impressive gardening standards, in spite of the spell of bad weather the UK has recently had.

 

The winners will be awarded with Haskins Garden Centre vouchers and have the opportunity to attend an awards ceremony in September. The successful green fingered residents were:
