| Toronto is an official AOS (American
Orchid Society) judging center. Montreal is an additional judging
site for the Toronto Judging Center. Judging in Toronto is generally on
the first Saturday of every month. Judging in TORONTO takes place at the
Toronto Botanical Garden (formerly Edwards Gardens), corner of 77 Lawrence
Ave. (corner Leslie Street) beginning at 1:00 p.m. unless stated
otherwise. Judging in Montreal is generally the 3rd Saturday
of every month at the Montreal
Botanical Garden, 4101 Sherbrooke Street East beginning at 1:00 p.m.
unless stated otherwise.
In addition to monthly dates for judging at the center, we have added orchid society SHOWS where you can find us. |
| N.B. It is possible that either the date or the time for AOS judging for either center may be changed so check here PLEASE. |
We shall shortly add Judging Homework and Talks so that we can share our knowledge with others. Please bear in mind that no one is perfect and mistakes do happen but we shall correct any errors that are brought to our attention. |
| Although judging begins at 1:00 p.m.,
there is a great deal of activity before that. Beginning at 10:00 a.m.,
there is student training, workshops, presentation of recent award
slides, etc. If you are interested in learning more about orchids, these
are two places for it.
Anyone can bring a plant in for judging. Everything is open to the public and everything is free. Te see judging dates at both centers and the shows we will attend, simply CLICK HERE. To see all awards given in Montreal, CLICK HERE. We hope to begin adding awards given in Toronto shortly. |
N.B. Unless indicated otherwise, all judging in Montreal shall take place at the Montreal Botanical Garden, 4101 Sherbrooke Street East, Montreal.
