I think this is probably the best way to get seedlings seen and evaluated by other hybridizers and judges.  I love the conventions but there is so little time to actually study a plant during the tours.  I have sent out seedlings to several hybridizers and they have kindly invited others to see and evaluate them.  This is a large task but it makes the final decision of introducing something that will do well in many places so much easier.  I thank all of those who have my seedlings tremendously for sometimes we are not the best to jusge our own creations.
