HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY'S SHOW SUCCESS OF WINTER EXHIBITION The judging of further sections and the allocation of championship awards were made at the Dunedin Horticultural Society’s Winter Show in the Pioneer Hall yesterday afternoon. Chief interest was centred on the chrysanthemum section, which is the feature of the exhibition. Among the exhibitors in the section for single chrysanthemums Mr E. A. Hamel had the most success. For the second year in succession he won the H. S. Hungerford Challenge Cup. Prominent in his collections were “ Rata, “ Richer Red,” “ Beauty,” and “ Healsville Bronze.” The runner-up in this section was Mr John Black, who showed some fine heads of “ Red Rover,” “ Phyllis Cooper,” and “ Mrs E. L. Vallange.” Mr Hamel also met with considerable success with his decorative singles and doubles. It is worthy of mention that Mr Hamel has now been exhibiting at the society’s shows for 41 years. The outstanding ‘ bloom in the show was Mr W. :G. -Hilliker’s “Lancashire.”' a. magnificent yellow Japanese, which was awarded the champion _of champions trophy. A Timaru exhibitor, Mr T. H. M'Donald. was also successful in the Japanese class, his bronze and red , shade blooms both taking champion awards. Another Timaru grower, Mr F. Segar, showed, 'the champion white Japanese, and a “ Bronze Majestic,” •which took the premier award in the any other colour section of the. Japanese classes.
