The William Bender Ribbon is for the best bloom in the Challenge section. Since the Challenge section allows blooms to be grown indoors, it’s not fair for flowers in this section to be eligible for the Gold or Miniature Gold Ribbons. As mentioned in another Daffnet post, miniatures and standards may both be entered in the Challenge classes. This year the best bloom in the Challenge section was a miniature, seedling 13-2-1 6W-Y.

And this concludes the single cultivar award winners. There were no entries in the class for species grown and shown in their containers.

  1. Kirby, thank you for posting the photos of the winning flowers, and mentioning the exhibitors, at the convention.  As always, your photos are beautiful.  Thank you for all the time and effort you spend on this.

  2. Kirby,

    I strongly echo Mary Lou! Thanks SO MUCH. Those of us in the hinterlands that could not attend greatly appreciate your talent and skill. Truly beautiful photos of spectacular flowers.

    Steve

  3. Wonderful photos, Kirby, and some lovely blooms.  I am very taken with Mitch Carney’s Rose Ribbon winner, what a beautiful clean looking flower!  Congratulations, Mitch.

  4. I’m glad you and others have enjoyed seeing the photos from the national show. This reminds me I should add a couple comments about Daffnet and show photos. First, the new Daffnet (as a web site) permits inserting a lot of photos per post as opposed to the old Daffnet (e-mail relay) where attachments were limited in size out of consideration for recipients using modems. Those who formerly disliked being inundated with incoming e-mail can now skip over a few Daffnet posts. Second, the new Daffnet has a more effective “search” capability with the archive going back to 2003, so it’s easier to find posts going back a decade. The Daffodil Journal publishes the official show results each September and a selection of photos, but the Daffnet archive can store all the photos in perpetuity (or at least until storage space runs out). So I would encourage all shows that want a visual record of their results to post them to Daffnet where they will be archived and can be retrieved. Knowing that there is already a decade of photos archived in Daffnet, I have started including the year in the titles of posts to make it easier to search for shows by year. By the way, I generally include a description of the ADS award as well as the name of the award on the assumption that most Daffnet viewers are not veteran exhibitors at American daffodil shows and are not familiar with the ADS awards.

  5. Kirby,

    As usual we greatly appreciate all  you do for ADS and this year especially our show in Columbus; which was huge and really kept you busy with taking photos. I appreciate the format you use in posting the pictures as I can then just put a link to your post on our ADS Facebook page.

    Thanks again,

    Phyllis
