June 11, 2025 – Has a certain garden in the neighbourhood caught your eye? Help us
give credit where credit is due: nominate beautiful gardens in St. Catharines for the City
Trillium Awards.
Nominations for the annual Trillium Awards open Wednesday, June 11. Residents are
encouraged to nominate their own, or someone else’s, bloomin’ beautiful front-yard
properties until Friday, June 27. Entry is free.
All St. Catharines properties, including residential, commercial and industrial properties,
are eligible for Trillium Awards in two categories: Civic Beautification and Community’s
Choice. One property will earn the Mayor’s Award as the best front-yard property from
all nominations.
In addition, the Green Leader award recognizes an individual or community organization
for a significant contribution to greening the community in an environmentally
sustainable way, and inspiring others to do so as well.
The Trillium Awards promotes neighbourhood beautification, challenges residents and
organizations to level up their property’s curb appeal and recognizes gardeners who
make St. Catharines more beautiful and friendly through their creative landscaping.
A panel of judges made up of members from the City and the Garden City Gardeners
(formerly the St. Catharines Horticultural Society) will evaluate nominations in July.
Trillium Awards recipients will be recognized at the 2025 Trillium Awards celebration in
September.
