Both, in my opinion. When I lived in Texas and would be cutting
irises for the show the afternoon before the show, judges from out of
town who would be judging our show the next day would drive in the
driveway as I was carrying show entries. They would also view show
stalks I hadn't gotten around to cutting yet. But, I guess you get
judges in your garden when you can!
