Flower & Plant Section
Most ower specimens should be conditioned: cut stems evening before entering, place in water immediately, gently wash if dirty, pick o any bugs or damaged
leaves, keep in cool place overnight.
Condition, uniformity of blooms, straightness of stems, healthy foliage will be some of the factors considered by the judge. Labeling entry with name of variety
will be an asset.
Bring specimens in suitable inexpensive clear glass containers (no colored). Stems must be visible to judge without removing owers from container. Some
attached foliage must remain on stem having foliage. Please do not have foliage under the water line on specimens where removal is possible. All stems must be
the same length. Plastic wrap may be used to cover top of containers so stems are straight.
e chairman shall have the right to remove an exhibit if it becomes unsightly. Exhibitors may replace wilted owers, after judging, if they wish.
