Reasons for the revision
Simplify the judging process Improve clarification for new judgesStress the importance of individual bloomsEqualize judging of stemmed and nonstemmed exhibitsAddress classes not included in current Guidelines for Judging Roses
![Page 4: New Guidelines for Judging Challenge Classes and Collections](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56815be5550346895dc9d896/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Old Method of Challenge Class Point Scoring- stemmed classes
Each bloom in entry receives:
100 points/bloom used for horticultural excellence
10 points/bloom used for overall appearance
![Page 5: New Guidelines for Judging Challenge Classes and Collections](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56815be5550346895dc9d896/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Example
Collection of 3 Blooms:3 X 100 = 300 points for Horticultural excellence3 X 10 = 30 points for overall appearanceEach entry in the class has a potential of 330 points
![Page 6: New Guidelines for Judging Challenge Classes and Collections](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56815be5550346895dc9d896/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
300 out of 330 points (90.9 %) for horticultural excellence30 out of 330 points (9.1%) for overall appearance of the exhibit
![Page 7: New Guidelines for Judging Challenge Classes and Collections](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56815be5550346895dc9d896/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Old Method of Challenge Class Point Scoring-
Blooms Without Stems
Each bloom in entry receives: 70 points/bloom used for horticultural excellence
40 points/bloom used for overall appearance(the 30 points that went to stem and foliage and balance and proportion are assigned to “overall appearance”)
![Page 8: New Guidelines for Judging Challenge Classes and Collections](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56815be5550346895dc9d896/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Example
Miniflora English Box:
6 X 70 = 420 points for horticultural excellence
6 X 40 = 240 points for overall appearance
![Page 9: New Guidelines for Judging Challenge Classes and Collections](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56815be5550346895dc9d896/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
420 out of 660 points (63.6 %) for horticultural excellence
70 out of 660 points (36.4%) for overall appearance of the
exhibit
![Page 10: New Guidelines for Judging Challenge Classes and Collections](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56815be5550346895dc9d896/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Old Method:DISPARITY!!!
Non-stemmed challenge classes receive 4 times more points (36.4% vs. 9.1 %) for appearance than stemmed classes!
![Page 11: New Guidelines for Judging Challenge Classes and Collections](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56815be5550346895dc9d896/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Goal of the challenge class revision is to
alleviate this incongruity
And (most importantly) create……

Revisions approved 6/27/08 by the ARS Board of Directors:
The new wording in Guidelines for Judging Roses is:
The most important factor in judging challenge classes and collections is the horticultural excellence of the individual specimens, which is assigned 80% of the overall score. Each specimen is judged using the 6 prime elements of judging (form, color, substance, size, stem and foliage, and balance and proportion). Each specimen counts equally. Overall appearance is assigned 20% of the overall score. Merit is awarded to the uniformity in size, degree of opening, form of the specimens, stem length and to the overall appearance of the specimens.

How should we approach judging challenge classes?
![Page 17: New Guidelines for Judging Challenge Classes and Collections](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56815be5550346895dc9d896/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Step 1
Do not touch any entry.
![Page 18: New Guidelines for Judging Challenge Classes and Collections](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56815be5550346895dc9d896/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Step 2
Review the schedule for class requirements.
•Number of specimens required•Classification of roses•Same or different varieties?•Exhibition stage of the entries
![Page 19: New Guidelines for Judging Challenge Classes and Collections](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56815be5550346895dc9d896/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Step 3
Review the entries to make sure each meets class requirements
![Page 20: New Guidelines for Judging Challenge Classes and Collections](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56815be5550346895dc9d896/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Step 4
Assess each bloom in the entry for horticultural excellence
•Form•Color •Substance •Size•Stem & Foliage•Balance & Proportion
![Page 21: New Guidelines for Judging Challenge Classes and Collections](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56815be5550346895dc9d896/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Step 5Assess overall appearance of the entry
•Uniformity of form, size, stem length and degree of opening•Overall placement of the specimens•Use of harmonious and complementary colors (if multiple varieties) or matching of colors (if one variety is called for)

Judging Classes without Stems

Revisions approved 6/27/08 by the ARS Board of
Directors:
Each individual specimen is evaluated for horticultural excellence. The points for each bloom are assigned using the prime elements of judging applicable to bloom, i.e. form, color, substance, and size. Because there are no points applicable to stem and foliage and to balance and proportion, each of the prime elements of judging applicable to a bloom is relatively more important in determining the points applicable to horticultural excellence.

Fragrance Class
No Changes in Guidelines
70% on Fragrance 30% Horticultural Excellence
* Some show schedules judge 100% on fragrance. If this is the standard used the ARS Fragrance certificate may NOT be awarded

What it should be:• An award that judges take time and care to determine!!!• An outstanding specimen or exhibit (depending on schedule rules) that exceeds normal standards for how that particular classification is exhibited.
•An exhibit that a judge thinks “that is the best (fill in the blank) I have ever seen”!
