Thanks for the explanation, Fiona! As Walter Moores mentions in his posting
on this subject it sounds something like an English box, except that your
original question was about the kinds of containers you should use for your
entry, so it must not be as standardized a display format as an English
box.
It is interesting that you have commercial sponsorship for this display. I
am not aware of any such sponsorship at the iris shows with which I am
familiar, but it might well be a concept worth pursuing. After all, our
iris club maintains an account at a local bank (which does not draw
interest), so we might as well try to get something out of them. ((-:
