GENERAL INFORMATION:

Entries close 5.00pm Friday 30th October 2009, except Late Entries Show morning.

Main Hall will be open to EXHIBITORS ONLY on Monday 2nd  November between

5.00pm & 7.00pm.

NO EXHIBITS WILL BE ACCEPTED AFTER 9.30 a.m. Show morning.

All judging to be in accordance with Standard and Specifications of the Western Australian Horticultural Council.

All arrangements must be done OUTSIDE the Hall.

Tables, bottles, gravel, name labels and water are provided outside the Hall.

JUDGES COMMENTS AND SUGGESTIONS:

Because of the interest expressed by potential exhibitors and the many useful suggestions put forward by the judges, this page has been added to the schedule to encourage and assist those who wish to exhibit.

PROHIBITS PLANTS e.g. Arum Lillies, will not be accepted in any display.

1.         PLEASE READ SCHEDULE CAREFULLY AS CARELESSNESS COSTS

    POINTS (e.g. the incorrect container or vase will lose points).

2.         Fresh Flowers MUST be in water (with or without oasis).

3.         Points are lost for damage, disease or bugs on flowers or foliage.

4.          ROSES:   ALL specimens must be displayed individually in bottles provided by the Society. 

    Use tissue or similar material to pack roses in bottles to help them “look” at judges.

            Definitions:

             Exhibition Rose “is one which has good form, freshness, size, substance, refinement and purity of colour and which is, at the time of  judging, in its most perfect phase of its possible beauty". Similar for full blooms.

 Bud: For display purposes “a bud is such from the time its calyx opens and colour is visible,

while the guard or outer petals open to not more than 45 degrees”.

Exhibition roses should not have buds attached.

          Buds are allowed on David Austen roses.

          Arrangement counts for half the points in “Container of” Classes.

          If possible name specimens.

5.         FLORAL

               Read schedule carefully e.g. “one colour flower” means there can be NO other colour on the flower,

 “foliage arrangement”: means there can be NO flowers.

           Line arrangement needs to have ‘clean’ lines and not much side material.

           The first mentioned element should be dominant e.g. Driftwood and fresh flowers – the driftwood dominates.

           Multi-headed flowers (e.g. proteaceae, stocks) are ineligible for Classes 24, 29 & 33.

           “Decorative Basket” is arranged and staged in a container (with water or oasis) in the basket. 

              Must have good design according to the shape and size of the basket with emphasis on colour and quality of materials used. A handle is optional.

6.         CUT FLOWERS: (Choose containers to best display the flowers)

            Container: a receptacle of any shape or design. Vase: greater in height than width.  Bowl: equal or greater in width than height.

           Distinct” means different i.e. “Geraniums, three cuts distinct” means three stems of different colours or forms.

            “Cuts” means individual stems i.e. “Geraniums, three cuts” means three stems either of the same or different colour.

All “distinct” or “Cuts” should be displayed in individual bottles e.g. “Class 37, four varieties, two cuts of each variety  requires eight bottles.       

 “Conditioning”: it has been suggested that all Exhibits can be improved with “conditioning” e.g. fishbone ferns are improved by removing the rolled tip which tends to droop; soaking some varieties overnight strengthens them, etc.                                                                                                                                                                                            

7.         POT PLANTS:

            Ensure all pots are clean (no cobwebs, etc). Turn pots regularly to be a symmetrical shape.

Stakes for fragile plants must be unobtrusive.

            “Asparagus Fern” is not a fern.

8.         ALL Exhibits (except Floral Art) must be grown by the Exhibitor.
