I have been treated to and enjoyed many beautiful photos and stories on this forum. If anyone is interested, there are a few contests going on right now that are looking for entries of various garden shots and stories as well as photos of flowers and wildlife. I am in no way affiliated to any organizations that sponsor the contests. THis is just a sharing of info only. I think there are so many talented gardeners on here who will have a great chance of winning with their entries and transformations.

Country Gardens right now have a contest open to amateur gardeners. Deadline is 9/2018. Here is link for details of the contest.
