The marking criteria prescribed by the East Midlands in Bloom organisers are as follows:

Visibility

The garden should be visible to the public and make a positive contribution to the street scene. Account will be taken of the degree of pleasure given by the garden to the wider community.

Design

Includes how creatively the available space has been used and the combination of plant form, texture and colour. Displays will be assessed to see if the layout and plants chosen are sufficiently varied to offer interest and colour throughout the year.

Maintenance standards

Looks for overall impact, standards of grassed areas, edging, dead heading, etc.
