Definitely in the morning.
Also, watch as your leaf is being placed. The placers are 999 times out of a
1000 correct, but sometimes mistakes happen. I entered a leaf of nigrescens
once and it was placed in a section for variegated plants. I witnessed this
and broke thru the tape to place it correctly. The chair of the Show shouted,
"Stop! You CANNOT enter this room!" I cried, "I shall have no trouble, sir!"
He shouted, "Call the hosta police!! and have this lunatic arrested and
ejected!"
I then shouted," HELP!! There is a fire in the adjacent room! Everyone out of
the hotel!"
They all left and I placed it in the right section and class.Won best of
section.
