Do you have a project that showcases perennials? The Perennial Plant Association is excited to announce the application period for the 2023 Landscape Design awards is now open.
Initiated in 1992, the PPA Landscape Design Awards program recognizes design projects that are exemplary in the use of herbaceous perennials to help create balanced and beautiful landscapes. The “after-market” applications of growers’ products and the design, installation, and maintenance of plants in gardens and natural settings are of special interest to the Perennial Plant Association.
Both experienced and novice designers are invited to participate.
Each year, judges evaluate many outstanding landscape designs and select the most excellent entries based on the effectiveness of herbaceous perennial plant material used to install new cultivars, color combinations, textures, and seasonal combinations. The entries comprise 11 categories based on residential, commercial, educational, temporary/seasonal designs and price of production. The judges are professionals in the fields of horticulture and design.
This year’s award winners will be recognized in the following ways:
• Awards presentation during the 2023 PPA National Symposium in Niagara Falls, Ontario on Tuesday, July 25.
• Complimentary National Symposium registration for the day of the awards ceremony
• Press release announcing award recipients sent out to media publications
• Promotion through PPA Instagram and Facebook posts as well as full feature article in the PPA newsletter
• PPA Webinar featuring award-winning design projects, hosted by the design team
