Solihull in Bloom

What are the judges looking for?

The judges visit in the month of July and are taken around an array of attractions within Solihull via a specially designed route to include facilities and attractions such as a school, a local hospital, an allotment site, a park and a fire station.

They are looking at 4 key areas:

1. The permanent landscaping - The planting and maintenance on estates, traffic routes and parks
2. The floral features - in town centres, in public areas and town centres
3. The environmental quality - evidence of sustainable development and conservation
4. Community involvement and public awareness - litter picks, gardening groups and bulb planting project

If you have a site or area that would be worthy of a judges visit then please contact us.

Places could include parks, residential gardens, estates, pubs, shopping centres, railway stations, schools, car parks or libraries to name but a few. Work conducted by community groups and residents is also important and may include litter picks, planting up a sheltered housing area or improving derelict pieces of land.
