Ah, but everyone judges 'that one'
Can we expect a host of replies then?
I shall put my tuppenceworth in, we walked round the show and decided that there was not one plant to which we would have given a Farrer Medal. Yes, the Verbascum was the best plant in the show, but judged against a hypothetical standard it was not quite good enough. It is only the same as not giving a First in some of the classes.Now whether that is the right way to judge is another matter altogether and would involve changing the criteria, from being as good as that particular plant can be, to just choosing which plant is the best in the group, on the day, no matter how poor the plants in that section are.
