Have you entered The Laurels?

The 2026 HMAA Neutrog Laurels are coming closer. Our gala dinner at Carrick Hill in Adelaide is on Thursday, 3 September and the bookings are already open. Book here to attend the dinner and take part in other related events in Adelaide including our garden tour.

But don’t just book for the dinner! Be part of The Laurels by entering your work.

It’s less than eight weeks until the closing date for Laurels’ entries. Entries close on June 15, and that will be here before you know it!

Why enter The Laurels?

Past Laurels’ winner, Deryn Thorpe, from WA says:

“I enter The Laurels because I believe that competing against peers helps me focus on the standard and strength of my horticultural communications.

“Winning the ‘Published Article’ and, with Steve Wood, twice receiving the Audio Laurel for ‘All The Dirt’ podcast recordings, were highlights of my working life. There is nothing more satisfying than having your commitment to producing good work validated.”
