Anglia in Bloom
Britain in Bloom


Ipswich in Bloom organises annual flower and sustainable garden competitions for both Summer and Winter seasons to encourage the imaginative use of plants and shrubs in residential, business and community premises throughout the borough of Ipswich. We work in conjunction with a number of other organisations and together we aim to improve the environment, encourage community spirit and promote a healthy outdoor activity. Ipswich in Bloom was re-instated in 1999 and since then in 2000, 2002, 2003 and 2004 we have entered the coveted Anglia in Bloom regional competition which covers the whole of East Anglia and includes entries from cities, towns and villages. We have won both Silver and Bronze awards (in the category for large towns and cities) and we are working towards entering the AiB competition in 2009.

Our valued current sponsors and supporters are:
