How does your garden grow? The Abington Journal wants to know.

Do friends suggest your house for outdoor events because of your flora and fauna? Are you everyone’s favorite neighbor because your abundant crop of tomatoes, peppers and zucchini end up in gift baskets on their porches? Do you know someone who is an avid gardener: someone who could hold his or her own with the U.S. National Arboretum or who has the perfect Japanese or classic Victorian garden? If so, The Abington Journal wants to hear about them.

The Abington Journal and theabingtonjournal.com will begin a 14-week story series written by Mauri Rapp and a contest on featured home gardens in the greater Abington coverage area. We will be accepting nominations for up to 14 gardens, which will be featured each week in print and online from July 29 through Oct. 28. Each garden nominated will receive a prize. Our readers will then vote for their favorites at your location or the Abington Journal office and on our Web site. The winning garden will receive a grand prize.
