Northeast Ohio Daylily Society
NODS Judges

AHS (American Hemerocallis Society) has a very specific Awards and Honors system.  To help determine what cultivar's win awards there are two different types of judges: Garden Judge and Exhibition Judge.
  • Garden Judges evaluate specific registered cultivars in gardens by observing the cultivars performance as complete plants in a garden.
  • Exhibition Judges evaluate registered cultivars against the standards of a specific flower in flower show exhibitions. 

To become either an accredited Exhibition Judge or a Garden Judge you must attend clinics (workshops) and pass a written test. The NODS members listed below have met the judge criteria.

Congratulations to Curt Hanson for winning the AHS 2007 Lenington All-American Award for his cultivar Bela Lugosi!
