The Council maintains many public
gardens throughout the Tendring District, these include gardens in
Clacton, Frinton & Walton and Harwich & Dovercourt. The
floral beds in the gardens are planted twice a year; in late May
for the summer and again in October for the following spring. The
numbers of plants used across the Tendring District is in the
region of 250,000 per year. The displays are designed by a member
of the horticultural staff and are planted and maintained
throughout the year by our grounds maintenance staff.
The Sea Front Gardens in Clacton are
often described as the 'jewel in the crown' and are admired by
locals and visitors alike. They are frequently used as a focal
point by the Clacton In Bloom organisation in the annual Anglia in
Bloom Competition. In 2007 the
Memorial Garden in Clacton was given the honour of the 'Best
Local Authority Floral Display' at the Anglia in Bloom Award
Ceremony.
The Crescent
Gardens in Frinton on sea are also used as part of Frinton In
Bloom's portfolio, who have been frequent winners of Anglia In
Blooms 'Small Town Award'.
Both Clacton Sea Front Gardens and
The Crescent Gardens are Green
Flag Award winning sites.
