Really you must have done well. The bloom is great and so the pouch is a little off this time. It's certainly a keeper and the flower is really nice. You must be doing something right. The remark about Candace and judging was just a jibe at her for all her recent awards. You never know when something will be awarded.....well I guess sometimes you do, but my first award took me completely by surprise. Just before I went to the show I was telling my partner that I didn't have anything in the show that was award quality. Much to my surprise I did.
Anyway, I love the flower.
Hats off.
