    A cymbidium! First one I see awarded. Congrats - are there more photos of the full plant? What did the judges like about it?

    Well, im not sure, we all peed off to morning tea lol, but it was also the only one in the novice cymbidium section. Im not sure how the judging goes on over there, but basically, there has to be a 3rd, 2nd, 1st in EACH section. If there is only one, then it theoretically fetches all three awards, but is really only awarded first, and if there are two, then it is a toss up between the two of them.
