A DEADLINE to enter a popular, green-fingered contest has arrived today.

Today is the last day that hopeful entrants can apply to compete in the Millom in Bloom 2020 competition.

Due to the coronavirus pandemic, restrictions are in place surrounding the judging of the competition.

The entrants name and property address must be attached to the email.

The categories for Millom in Bloom, ran by Millom Town Council, are Best Garden, Forecourt, Hanging Basket, Back Yard, and Business Garden/Display.

The winners of each category will receive vouchers as prizes.

Judging will only take place via the pictures sent in.
