Why enter The Laurels?

Past Laurels’ winner, Phil Dudman, from NSW says:

“Winning the 2024 Visual Laurel meant a lot to me, not because of the recognition itself, but for what it represents. Horticultural communication is a pretty niche field, and to have your work assessed by people who truly understand it is rare and genuinely meaningful. Entering also made me look more carefully at my work, which is a valuable exercise in itself. I’d encourage anyone to enter – the profession is stronger when we hold ourselves to a high standard together, and The Laurels give us a unique opportunity to do just that.”
