One of the features of this year's Chicago Flower & Garden Show at Navy Pier March 6-14 is a new horticultural competition. The Chicago Botanic Garden drew up the rules, in cooperation with serious plant societies, so it conforms to the strict traditional flower show guidelines. That means the rules are very finicky, so read carefully. See the rules here.
Anybody can enter. There are categories for various kinds of houseplants--so you might already have a winner in your living room--and for planting window boxes. The competition includes a photo contest. Deadline for the photos is Feb. 17 (postmarked by Feb 16).

I was born and raised on the southside of Chicago! I am now blogging about gardens in the western suburbs of Chicago. I grew up on a thirty foot lot, now I have a fifty foot wide lot. Yeah!
