It says on page 28 in the Handbook for Judges and Show Officials that the
Dykes Medal honors William Rickatson Dykes (1877-1925), the English botanist
and author of the great monograph The Genus Iris.

It also says that this award is restricted to irises first introduced in the
United States or Canada.

Isn't there a slight paradox in banning English registered irises from an
award supposed to honor an English botanist?



you can see the page 28:
