| A couple of pictures of the tables at the Whatcom show.
This was the table of A sized dahlias.
This is an over-view of the show. The season was so late this year that it was the biggest show in the Federation so far this year- over 2,000 dahlias--
This is the Head Table with all the big winners.
The theme of the arrangements this year was Ethnic Diversity & the catagory of this arrangement was Native American.

| Annabeth-- we entered a few. We won the Bob Simon Trophy for the best Bob Simon introduction in the show. He was our mentor & we learned a lot about hybridizing from him so we sponsored a trophy in his memory when he passed into that big dahlia garden in the sky. We've won it a lot - we still grow lots of his introductions because they're all AA or A sizes & we use them to create new dahlias. We also won lots of firsts & some Best of Types & Sections. We didn't enter many because I'm chair of Judges & Clerks for that show & it gets CRAZY the morning of the show & it's hard to enter & help people & answer questions, too. The very best part for us was seeing our daughter get her first ribbons in a show- she was soooo happy! You can see us with our award & our daughter under the other posting I did a few days ago titled WCDS Show. Pictures. |
