Congratulations to TheE and bromjewel. This theme resulted in a delightful mix of photos as everyone was able to put there own interpretation on the theme - some a little tongue in cheek but entertaining all the same. If nothing else the entries highlighted that garden Features can take all sorts of forms and all sorts of sizes.

Thanks again for all your entries, sorry for the delay in announcing the winners but we always get there in the end. Good luck to you all in the latest competition.
