Berlin Landscapers Take Top Prize at CT Flower & Garden Show
Hillside Landscaping of Berlin took home one of three top prizes awarded Thursday.
Thursday night, right after the doors closed on Day 1 of the 2014 Connecticut Flower & Garden Show, the many professional landscapers who created the show’s 20 lush, live gardens on-site gathered.
More than two dozen design awards were presented by Kristie Gonsalves, President of North East Expos, organizer of the 33rd annual show. A panel of horticulture and landscape design experts strolled the gardens earlier in the day and selected the winners.
A Berlin garden store was honored with one of the top three awards on the evening: Best Horticulture Award was presented to Hillside Landscaping Co. of Berlin (landscape #12).
Best of Show was awarded to Pondering Creations of Terryville (landscape #1) — for the second year in a row — and Best Design Award was presented to Supreme Landscapes LLC (landscape #4) of Bristol.
Awards are on display in front of all of the winning landscapes.
The Connecticut Flower & Garden Show continues Friday through Sunday, Feb. 23, at the Connecticut Convention Center on 100 Columbus Blvd. in Hartford.
