back yesterday and one correction I do not understand. I was told to add
the following to the sched. "Single blossom classes may not have award
ribbons counted for Silver and Bronze Medal/Certificates and are not
eligible for the "Best Specimen of Show" award." What is a single blossom
class? Is it bulbous irises and English boxes? I have grown bulbous
irises that had more than one
> bud per stem, so I don't understand exactly what they are talking about.
Pat,
The statement in quotation marks above is a verbatim transcript of the
language on p.36 of the 1998 AIS Handbook for Judges and Show Officials.
Read in context with the accompanying language in the same paragraph, it
seems clear that "single blossom classes" are distinct and different from
English boxes and bulbous irises, though I, for one, have never encountered
them at a show and have no idea what they are, other than a literal
interpretation of the term, i.e., a single iris blossom exhibited by
itself, and not in a group as in an English box.
