Hello All
The East Tennessee Daffodil Society held their annual show at the university of Tennessee’s agriculture building on campus, March 13th.
It was a very nice show with many most stems than last year. The shows so far this season have been quite exciting and this is no exception.
The Gold ribbon was awarded to Causeway Gem which I’ve never known before and came from the purple ribbon winner from Mike and Lisa Kuduk.
I was very happy to award the John Lipscomb Memorial trophy in this show, to the White Ribbon winner of Miss Primm, exhibited by Corky Witt.
This show offers a memorial award for the best pink in cup in memory of Shirley Seib (sp), and the best yellow-red in memory of Frank Galyon. The pink award came from the winning Bozie by Greg Freeman as did the Rose ribbon.
The yellow-red trophy was awarded to Scarlet Chord that isn’t often seen in shows in the midwest, and entered by Mike and Lisa Kuduk.
Also, the mini Gold was a great specimen of Alec Gray, exhibited by Dwight & Colette Curtis.
