On Monday, May 20, Palm Beach County Tax Collector Anne Gannon received the Unsolicited Landscape Design Award from the Wellington Garden Club, in conjunction with Florida Federation of Garden Clubs – District X, on behalf of the Constitutional Tax Collector’s Office.
Gannon is an avid gardener whose home was featured on the 2022 Palm Beach County Native Plant Tour. Also in attendance was Westlake Councilman Julian Martinez, District X Director Maria Wolfe and District X Unsolicited Landscape Design Chair Stormi Bivin.
The Wellington Garden Club, in conjunction with Florida Federation of Garden Clubs – District X, recognizes and encourages well-designed and maintained plantings in the public and private sectors. These awards are called the Unsolicited Landscape Design Awards and are presented annually. These awards are “unsolicited” in that they are not requested/nominated by the owners of the locations. Any garden club member in the district can submit a nomination.
Gannon’s office in Westlake was this year’s winner in the Public Facility category. The judges’ comments were: “Aesthetically beautiful,” “hardscape and landscape harmoniously arranged,” and “interesting, diverse plant material.”
