Every month, Matlock in Bloom reward high standards in the town following public nominations.
But after being “blown away” on a visit to John Riley’s allotment, members are now urging the public to nominate voluptuous veggie patches across Matlock.

Hide AdPaddy Petch, of Matlock in Bloom, said: “John has a vast range of edible and ornamental plants and they all seem to thrive under his skilful touch. But you, or someone you know, may rival this.
“If so, you stand the chance of winning an award for excellence, and gardening vouchers kindly sponsored by Scotland Nurseries.”

Other winners this month include George Smallwood for his care of a roadside space, Peter and Joyce Davey for their garden design, and Sheila Watt for her back garden.
