Include as much information as possible in the title and description of your photo

You must tag your photos so that we know what they are and so we can display them in the right place the Kew website.

As all photos in the group must be taken at Kew Gardens or at Wakehurst Place, please make sure you tag your photo either kew or wakehurst
If you are submitting a picture of a certain plant then tag your photo to describe it, for example oak or autumn or pagoda. Or all three if it's a picture of an oak tree by the Pagoda in autumn! You can add as many tags as you like.
