The Scottish Garden Design Competition is returning with the exciting addition of a brand new category for 2025! Alongside the ‘Small Space Gardens’ category, designers can now enter the larger ‘Showcase Garden’ category to demonstrate the very best of the Scottish garden design and landscaping community with a large scale 'Showcase Garden'.
The uniqueness of the ‘Showcase Garden’ category is that these will not only be on show for the duration of the Scone Palace Garden Fair, but the three finalists' gardens will remain in the gardens for 9 months. This will provide a greater challenge to the designer who must consider how the garden will be viewed not only by visitors to the event, but also during the other seasons of the year by the 100,000 visitors who visit Scone Palace annually.
The theme of this year’s competition, is ‘Hope’ which is open to interpretation by each gardener, offering endless possibilities for creativity and expression.
For full details of the categories and how to apply HERE.
Trellis have announced the return of their Annual Conference which will take place on 14th March 2025 at The Bield in Blackruthven.
