HORTICULTURAL AWARD
DISTRICT: A certificate may be awarded to the District
which reports the best horticultural project. The District
Director may compile a file of horticulture projects
reported by at least three-fourths of the clubs in the district.
Each club's report shall include a brief narrative description
of its CLUB project and supporting data. The District Director
must prepare a statement summarizing the work and evaluating the
horticultural project and value.
CLUB: A garden club which has carried out a specific
horticultural project for one year may apply for this award. The
year's program shall include discussions of the plant chosen.
At least two-thirds of the members shall have grown the
plant; evidence of this must be included in the report. Showing
at club meetings is to be encouraged; if a club stages a flower
show then a class should be included for exhibiting the plant
subject. Publicity and pictures of the show shall be included in
the data. Pictures of exhibiting at meeting would also
constitute evidence.
INDIVIDUAL: This award may be given to an all around
practical gardener who does outstanding gardening in his/her own
plot, not necessarily hybridizing. His/her achievement for one
year must be described in a full narrative report and well
documented by newspaper clippings, pictures and ribbons won in
horticultural classes of Standard Flower Shows and plant society
shows.
LITERARY EFFORT: This award recognizes a member or a club
that writes articles on horticultural subjects. The candidate
must apply for this award; submit as supportive data those
articles published in the current year. This award may not be
given to the same individual or club more than two years in
succession.
First, second and third place awards will be presented in each
class when merited. (Certificate of Award)
