All horticulture exhibits eligible for AHS Rosettes and medals must be entered on-scape. 2. Registered cultivars are to be entered on scapes whose overall height does not exceed 36 inches. 3. All seedlings (including pre-registered cultivars) shall be severed as near the base as possible regardless of height. A seedling having won the AHS rosette in any other show is not eligible. 4.

Note: A youth may not enter the same cultivar in both the youth section and the seedling and / or popularity poll section. 6

7 7. Cultivars listed on the official spider list must be exhibited in Section 6 unless they are: (1) a Popularity Poll exhibit, (2) part of a local collection, (3) a Youth section exhibit, or (4) registered as a multiform cultivar (see Multiform Classification Code). 8. Cultivars whose names are not listed in the AHS checklist or supplements may not be exhibited in any Division, Section, Class or Group where registered cultivars are specified. 9. Popularity Poll cultivars must be exhibited only in Section 9 unless they are Youth exhibits. 10.

Each panel of judges shall be the final authority for each section and group in which it judges. 4. Only the Classification Chairman has the authority to disqualify any entry that is damaged or does not conform to the schedule. 5. The appropriate AHS scale of points will be used for: (1) Registered cultivars on-scape, (2) Seedlings on-scape, (3) Individual flowers of registered cultivars off-scape. 6. The AHS standard system of awards will be used. 7

8 7. All scapes receiving the AHS rosettes or purple ribbons must score 95 or above by the AHS scale of points. 8. Registered cultivars will be classified, as registered, by size and by form. They will be grouped alphabetically within each section. No distinction is to be made between the classification of diploids and tetraploids. 9. Each registered cultivar shall constitute a name class. A single entry may be given an award if the judges consider it a superior exhibit. An exhibitor may have only one entry per name class. 10. Each seedling or pre-registered cultivar (a pre-registered cultivar is considered a seedling) shall constitute a class to be judged on individual merit. Each entry may be given an award if considered a superior exhibit. 11. If Division I, AHS Rosette eligible Sections 1-10, are sub-divided or judged by more than one panel of judges, the purple awards must be point scored to determine a single winner since there is only one AHS rosette for each of these sections. ************************************************************************************** Multiform Classification Code for Shows Before 2008, polymerous flowers were exhibited in the corresponding singleflower sections by size. Even thought these and multiform flowers are relatively few in numbers, they and multiform flowers are now exhibited as indicated below. In order to assist Classification Chairs in determining where to place them in a show, a Multiform Classification Code has been designed. A show section may be subdivided into classes if enough cultivars are entered to warrant it: 8

9 Registered as: Place in Show Section: Double/Spider.. Double and Polymerous Double/Unusual Form.. Double and Polymerous Double/Polymerous.. Double and Polymerous Double/Spider/Unusual Form...Double and Polymerous Double/Spider/Polymerous... Double and Polymerous Double/Unusual Form/Polymerous Double and Polymerous Spider/Unusual Form... Spider Spider/Unusual Form/Polymerous. Double and Polymerous Spider/Polymerous Double and Polymerous Unusual Form/Polymerous.. Double and Polymerous Polymerous Double and Polymerous Please note, that it is recommended that the Classification and Tabulation committees use the AHS Online Registration Database or the AHS Electronic Checklist CD to classify each registered cultivar by typing the cultivar name into the Advanced Search screen of the database. The appropriate Horticulture Division I and II show section will be shown automatically. This will make classification and placement of any registered cultivar easy and almost foolproof.
