An Enfield college its young gardeners can once again return victorious from a national competition.

Capel Manor College in Bullsmoor Lane, Enfield, has been selected for the fourth time in four years for the young gardener competition at the Ideal Homes show, which it won in 2011.

The competition, now in its fifth year, was launched on November 20.

Colleges go head-to-head to create gardens that will be seen by a quarter of a million visitors at the show.

Organised by television gardener David Domoney and the Prince’s Foundation, the competition usually asks for organic and sustainable principles in garden designs.

This year, competitors are being asked to come up with ways to reuse rainwater.

David Domoney, organiser of the competition said: “Now in our fifth year, we will have given over 250 students the opportunity to create show gardens at a national show before they even leave the college gates.

“This is a great experience for them – many will be our garden designers and landscape stars of the future. This year sees a great line up of young hopefuls pitching their skills against rival colleges for the title of young gardeners of the year.”

Each college will be asked to submit their garden designs before the beginning of February, when they will then have one week to build and plant their garden inside Kensington Olympia ready for the Ideal Home Show opening day on the March 20, 2015.
