Iris Gittings Trophy

A Wellington Branch member of the NZCS, Iris was one of those energetic old style gardeners, and with her husband Ken, kept a large garden which included camellias and other well grown shrubs and perennials and of course, a very good vegetable garden. When help was needed at the local branch she was always there. She left a bequest to our society and it was fitting that a trophy was purchased in her name and awarded for "The Best Bloom in the Novice Classes". It was first awarded in 1994.

The trophy has previously been awarded to
