Show Results

Anyone with access to show results from 1983?

Daffnetters, I’m hoping someone out there might have access to show results from 1983. I’m looking specifically for the flowers in the American Bred blue ribbon winner at Williamsburg, VA. According to Eve Robertson’s stock book, it contained a seedling of hers with the breeding of Kilrea x Angel. This is one of her seedlings I continue to grow on with thoughts of eventually naming it. I’m wondering if a color code had been attached to this seedling in the entry in the Williamsburg show in 1983.

  1. Hi David,

    Otis Etheredge won the RWB in Williamsburg in 1983. On Page 15 of the September Jounal (1983) it only states that one of flowers in his winning entry was Eve Robertson’s seedling #350. Maybe Well’s Knierim took a picture of the winning collection.  The other flowers in his collection were ‘High Repute’, ‘Suave’, ‘Newport’ and ‘Starmount’.

  2. I should have mentioned that the seedling in question was indeed #350. The stockbook note does say “Otis exhibited and won….”, and thankfully I now know who Otis was.
