This year’s Glorious Gardens competition is open to all Jesmond gardeners with a little bit of Paradise in front of their house. Entries for gardens of all sizes are welcome, and there’s a special category for the best wildlife-friendly plot. To make the competition truly inclusive, this year there will be a prize for the prettiest single container. Email Greeningjesmond@hotmail.com for details of how to enter. The closing date for entries is Tuesday 18 May and the awards will be presented on Friday 28 May.
