Listers,
The Utah Iris Society main season show was held in Salt Lake City today.
There were fewer entries than usual this year - there has been a lot of
rough weather in the past week and it is now only early midseason for TB
bloom in the Salt Lake area, while the medians and AB's were rushed into
bloom by a spell of warm weather at the end of April and are now well past
their peak.
As Dorothy Fingerhood mentioned in her show report, it was a privilege to
be able to participate in judging this show, and would have been an equal
privilege to be an exhibitor if a hailstorm Thursday night had not rendered
everything I had in bloom unsuitable for entry.
On to the results!
Best Specimen (Queen of the Show): Sun Goddess exhibited by Joe Brown
Runner-up to Queen: Sheik (AB) exhibited by Cathy Hagan Reed
Best Median: Whoop 'Em Up (BB) exhibited by Cathy Hagan Reed
Sweepstakes: Joe Brown
Runner-up to Sweepstakes: Val Wilson
Best Design: Kathie Kasperek
The Logan Iris Show will be next Friday (May 29) and the Kaysville-Fruit
Heights show will be on Saturday (May 30). We have to clear the boards
early in Utah this year so everyone can join the rush to Denver!
