2006 Blue Ribbons

	On this page you'll be able to admire some of the best orchids that were in the show.
	Winning Plants of 2006
	We judged the orchids in the show, trying our hand at picking out the best plants of every Alliance, and awarding them a ribbon. You guess it: blue means first, red second and white third place. Then we chose the best plants of their alliance, and awarded these a yellow rosette. Finally, the best plant of the show and the best cultivated plant received a brass plaque.
More Winning Plants:	We also gave some plants yellow ribbons: these were plants of special merit. (By the way, it was really hard to label the pictures correctly - if you see that a plant is misidentified, please tell Isabelle F. at the next meeting...)
