After an absence of two years the local Wimborne in Bloom competition is returning – but hurry to enter as the deadline is Monday 27 June.

There are categories for everyone from Best Back and Front Garden, Best Wildflower Garden and Best Shop Window Display depicting Wimborne in Bloom. Full details on the Wimborne in Bloom website:  www.wimborneinbloom.org.uk. There are also entry forms in strategic places around town.

In addition, the art and poetry competitions are also being organised and again full details are on the Wimborne in Bloom website.

Wimborne is now looking colourful as the hanging baskets have been put up and the flower towers and planters around town planted up to give a floral display for the summer.
