I’ve been thinking about this and why I love to exhibit when I can, even though I don’t have a competitive bone in my body.  I enjoy doing it for the flowers!  They are too gorgeous not to have people see them and many cannot (or don’t know they can) own historic or very special plants. I sort of feel as though these plants have passed the test of time and deserve the recognition of being seen by more than my husband and sometimes a few friends.  Even when it’s just the show table at a meeting, if the plants and their history are well described and why they win the ribbon (or don’t),  I think it’s very educational and deepens the general appreciation of orchids and encourages others that they can grow them well, too!
