National Show Results, revised

The 2-way tie for most blue ribbons at the National Show at the Chicago Botanic Gardens last week has suddenly become a 3-way tie. There was a discrepancy between the records and the actual ribbons and we now have three exhibitors who won the White Ribbon for most blue ribbons:

Beth Holbrook
Naomi Liggett
Cindy Haeffner
Bill Lee

  1. I thought red ribbons were to be counted to break such ties.  Am I not correct?

    Not correct, Jim. The ADS Handbook for Growing, Exhibiting, and Judging Daffodils specifically states that “In the event of a tie, the ADS will provide additional Silver Ribbons for the co-winners.”
    This may come as a surprise to some local groups who have always used the red-ribbon count (second place) as the tie-breaker.
