Judging Day Sunday 1 October 2017


For many years the Canterbury Horticultural Society has helped gardeners develop their knowledge of horticulture and home gardening.

In the altered landscape of post-earthquake Christchurch we are nurturing a new generation of gardeners in what is fast becoming an altogether new Christchurch. Our Spring and Summer Garden Awards are a way of acknowledging the great work home gardeners, landscape designers, city planners, teachers and employed gardeners are doing – and a chance for just a little bit of showing off for all the hard yards on the ground.

We would love to see some new gardens and meet some new gardeners, so if you know anyone who has worked hard on a garden – for home, school or work why not nominate them today (just make sure you get their approval first)!

Awards are open to all residents of Christchurch as per CCC official boundaries.
