The original Judging Notes for the Container and Display sections of the State Dahlia Show were developed by Bob Yeomans and first published in DAHLIAS Magazine in 2005. 

These notes have now been revised by Deb Collett and Fran Grylls with the aim of encouraging more people to exhibit at the Show.

Blooms in the Container and Display sections of the Show Schedule are judged on their face value only and are not constrained by the traditional requirements of show blooms regarding the depth, stem length, type or form. Any type of dahlia bloom can be used in all their amazing colours.
