| The 2018 champ Zinfin Doll® panicle hydrangea |
It's back! For the 6th year, we're celebrating the start of spring with Shrub Madness, the only bracket competition that pits shrub vs. shrub in a no-holds-barred battle for horticultural glory and the title of National Champion! Zinfin Doll® hydrangea took it last year. Who will win this year? You decide.
How to Play:
Visit the website, www.shrubmadness.com; and complete your bracket by February 28. Every day from March 1 through March 31, 2019, visit ShrubMadness.com to vote your favorite plants through to the next round of the competition. Registration is not necessary just to vote, but you can only win plants if you register.
Even if you have registered for Shrub Madness in the past, you will need to create a new registration this year. We don’t store your information from year to year. Want more info about how to get started?

What are you waiting for? Oh, I know, your chance to win...good for you for reading to the end!
Garden Writers Contest
Of course, there is a Shrub Madness side-contest just for garden writers! Whoever sends me the closest, most accurate bracket will win a landscape-ready plant of their choice from the final four shrubs in the competition.
To enter, fill out your entire bracket and send me the names of your final four by mail (12601 120th Ave. Grand Haven, MI 49417) or e-mail (natalie at springmeadownursery dot com) by February 27.
Good luck, garden writers!
