The competition to find the five people whose names will be planted in flowers opened on 20th April 2009. Submissions will close on 22nd May 2009. During this period you can send us the name of the person you wish to nominate, along with an explanation of why that person deserves a public tribute.
After the competition closes, the judges will choose five names to be commemorated - one for each of the five host boroughs for 2012. With the help of local gardening clubs, each name will then be written in living flowers in public parks and green spaces across East and South East London.
The tributes will be officially revealed in late June 2009. They will remain in place for all to see until late summer, and will be a highlight of the CREATE ’09 Festival.
