Otaki – a few more .Kiwi Redcups .

As would  be  expected  at  an  early  season  show  ,  the  div 2  Redcups  were  at  their  peak .  The  class  for  a  vase  of  3  stems  redcups  had  10 bright  entries  —  surprisingly  there  were  no  mixed  vases  .Also  of  note  was  that  all  the  vases  were  N Z  raised  .Jamore  led  with  3  ,  Cameo  Frills  had  2  ,  then  one  each  of  Mason  Road  ,  Feverpitch , Valley  Glow  , Egmont  King  and  Kiwi  Gossip  . The  class  was  intentionally  positioned  to  be  the  first  look  into  the  hall  and  made  a  warm ,  bright  entrance .The  winner  was  a  bigger  vase  of  Jamore  ,  The  very  round  Valley  Glow  was  second  and  Cameo  Frills  placed  third .
