Have a lovely garden that you want to show off to the world (or at least to other Melville customers)? then why not enter Melville's Great Gardens Contest for 2024. Open to all Melville tenants, there's a £100 first prize, as well as a prize for the best use of a small space.£100 first prize
£35 runner up prize
£50 prize for best use of small space
We love to see your fantastic gardens and this year, once again, our Great Gardens contest will reward the hard work of three green-fingered Melville tenants.
Whether you have your own garden or not, this year is the perfect opportunity to enter because as well as the £100 first prize, we’ve also got a prize for the best use of a small space. This might be a balcony, a patio or simply hanging baskets at your front or back door.
All you need to do to enter (by 5pm Monday 12 August) is complete this short form. There's also the option of sending us some photos of your garden at its very best. Judging will take place in late August and winners will be announced at our Annual General Meeting in September.
The Baxter Keiller Prize, named in honour of a keen Melville gardener who sadly passed away in 2014, is awarded each year to Melville’s finest garden and last year was won by Mr and Mrs Pake of McLean Place, Gorebridge.
