🥌 May 2026 GOTM Winners 🏋️
This month, the theme was “Health & Heroes“, and wow — you all really flexed your creativity! From athletic inspiration to honoring everyday heroes, the gardens this month were packed with impressive designs and meaningful tributes.
Don’t forget — the CuppaZee Gardens Tool is your go-to resource for dreaming up your own designs or finding the perfect spot to deploy! Whether you’re training for GOTM greatness or saluting your local heroes, it’s the perfect place to start building.
Without further ado, let’s jump right in to celebrate the winners for May:
🥌 Curling at the Winter Olympics 2026 designed by Slobin11 in Belluno, IT
This clever curling-inspired design slides perfectly into the Health & Heroes theme! The shape of the curling stone is instantly recognizable, with the red handle and icy gray center recreated beautifully using Virtuals. We especially love how the surrounding black Virtuals help define the shape and add depth, while the placement of the Virtual Garden POI feels like the perfect finishing touch. A gold medal-worthy garden!
🏋️ Light Weight designed by ibike4m in Fremont, CA, US
This gym-inspired garden definitely earns its spot among this month’s winners! The dumbbell silhouette is simple, clean, and instantly recognizable — proving sometimes less really is more. We love the creative use of different Virtuals to add detail to the weights, while the line of green Flat Robs connecting the center feels like Rob himself is showing off some serious strength training! Whether he’s spotting the lifters or sneaking in an arm day, the whole design strikes a perfect balance between clever and clean. Bonus points for fitting the fitness side of the theme so perfectly!
