Each year the Nursery and Garden Industry Australia (NGIA) celebrates excellence with annual awards. Twelve garden centres were finalists for this year's awards in three categories. As a judge for this year's awards, my job was to whittle them down to one winner for each category.
The 12 finalists grouped under the three categories of Best Lifestyle Garden Centre, Best Speciality Garden Centre and Best Group Garden Centre. All are very worthy finalists and worth visiting to buy plants or other garden-related products.

Hard times
It's a tough gig running a garden centre in Australia. Years of drought and water restrictions on top of the Global Financial Crisis and the rise and rise of big box hardware stores, have taken their toll. The number of garden centres has declined in the past decade as owners close shop, some selling their land for far more than the business ever earned while operating, while others have simply closed the gate and hung up the secateurs.
But it is not all doom and gloom for garden centres. Those who remain in business have lifted their game and become exciting and inspirational places to shop. These awards help to recognised and celebrate Australia's top quality garden centres.
I was lucky enough to be the onsite judge for this year's awards. I visited the 12 finalists selected from entries from around Australia. I spent a hectic two weeks visiting every part of Australia to track them down.
Finalist Eden Gardens
From the very first nursery I visited (Eden Gardens in Sydney), I knew I had taken on a tough job. All of the garden centres were excellent, and ticked all the boxes on the assessment form I'd been given. They had signage, clean accessible trolleys, healthy plants, well-stocked shelves of garden products as well as ornaments and gift lines and inspiring display gardens. Most also had coffee shops and seats where customers could relax and drink in the atmosphere.
For anyone into plants and gardening the modern nursery or ‘garden centre' is a wonderful place to visit.
All were run professionally, employed friendly and knowledgeable staff and put a focus on plants. Many grew a lot of their stock themselves and all sourced plants from top suppliers. Their plants were well maintained, correctly labelled and well displayed. It was very hard to not grab a trolley and start filling it with plants as I wandered the garden centre paths.
So, how do you judge the best of the best? Part of the decision was out of my hands as, for these awards, the original entry counted for a portion of the marks. I awarded my marks based on how things looked on the day of my visit. As not all the garden centres had the same offerings these results were then worked out as a percentage. Hopefully it is a fair system but really any of the businesses could have been winners.
And the winners are…
Rivers Garden Centre
