Every May for the past few years our Branch has held a Cactus Mini Show. Everyone is encouraged to bring a few plants to show. Judging of the plants is by the members present at the branch meeting.
The rules are quite simple.
There are ten classes.
Everyone gets ten slips of paper which say Class[#] - I LIKE THIS PLANT BEST.
Everyone votes for one plant in each class.
Votes are counted and the top three plants in each class wins a prize card.
Because I'd not really had any plants to put in the show in the past (and I don't have any succulents for the mini-show in August) I've been bringing my camera for the past few years. I did however enter this year.
Below are five from the set I photographed. All belong to various Branch Members (i.e. these are not my plants).
To see the 70+ pictures please take a look here. Hope you like them.
