THE JOAN TAYLOR VASE.
· The Joan Taylor Vase competition is a special class for a vase of mixed flowering stems containing between five and ten stems taken from a minimum of two different kinds of plant. (Please note that two varieties of the same plant are not different kinds of plant).
· Only home grown flowers are allowed.
· The display is judged on a total of 35 points; 25 points for the colour, form, condition, quality and freshness of the flowers and 10 marks for the overall presentation and effect of the flowers in the vase.
· Stems used in the display must be showing flowers only. No seed heads or berries allowed.
· The vase can be any shape or size but must be in proportion to the display itself.
· The winner of the Joan Taylor vase competition will be awarded the Joan Taylor Trophy plus a £10 garden voucher, 2nd prize a shield and a £5 garden voucher and third prize a shield and £3 garden voucher.
