Roger Burnett, Chair of the RHS Britain in Bloom UK Judging Panel, said:
“Our finalists have had to endure difficult weather conditions and ongoing council cuts. But this is why I’m even more excited than normal, because I love seeing the imaginative ways communities that overcome challenges. “
From major industrial cities to small villages each finalist represents its region and aims to impress the RHS Britain in Bloom National Judges who will assess everything from the sustainability of a planting scheme, to the cleanliness of a street bench, including how much the community engages local schools.
