Grow - seeds provided by Stamford In Bloom, seedlings in your garden, using space in your greenhouse
Store plants - seasonal plants will need to be kept from year to year
Residents - can make a real difference to the front of your house by placing a simple pot by the front door, installing a window box or two or adding a couple of hanging baskets. A group of houses, a row or street can enter their own special category
Retailers - can add pots with trees or flowers at their entrances and use their windows to welcome customers all year, with a special effort during judging week in July, when shops can enter their own category of this competition
Pubs, wine bars, hotels - with public areas can enter their gardens for special judging
Schools - can get involved with clearing designated spaces within the town, seed growing and planting. In addition, there are plans, maps, banners, booklets and photographic diaries which all need designing
