Circleville, Ohio (June 25, 2009) - Nearly 140 entries were judged today in the Senior Division Flower Show at the Pickaway County Fair. The Senior Division is open to anyone aged 18 years or older.
"Considering it's a June show, when many people do not even have flowers blooming at their homes yet, it was an excellent representation of the horticulture community," said Steve Speakman, chairman of events at the Ankrom Building.
Top winners in various categories include:
Horticulture Excellence Winner (for best single bloom): Holly Hulse of Circleville, with a day lilly.
Best In Show - Senior Design: Jayne Barnes of Williamsport, and Steve Speakman of Chillicothe.
Green Thumb Award (most Award Point in the house or patio plants category): Abbie Riley of Mt. Sterling.
This year's entry included 22 entries in the Arrangement category, three in the House and Patio Plant category, and 137 in the Horticulture category.
"It's an understatement to say that judges were impressed with the quality of this year's entries," said Speakman.
The Horticulture Sweepstakes Award, given to the individual with the most Award Points in various categories, will be awarded tomorrow.
