TwitterGarden Show Off Contest

Maybe it'll grow in by next summer...
Attention, home-grown garden designers. Canadian Gardening is running an online beauty contest for the best home and garden makeovers. This is a chance for all city gardeners to strut your stuff and show off your horticultural accomplishments. Even if you don’t think your garden is worthy, it’s fun to scroll through the entries with a savvy eye for design ideas, and while you’re there, vote for your favourites. (I found three great designs that I’d love to have in my own backyard.) Forget the federal election – voting for gardens is way more fun!
Here’s how I spent my summer vacation — designing a garden for my aunt on a small suburban lot hemmed in by fencing. It’s not quite ready for prime time, but maybe for next year’s Canadian Gardening makeover contest!
