Clark Cups
There are two Clark Cups and they are the oldest of our trophies. One was donated by Mr Jack Clark and the other by Mrs Clark.
Jack Clark has always been interested in raising new seedlings, so the trophies were designated for Seedlings, one for the Best Japonica Seedling and originally the other was for the Best Hybrid Seedling. However, when the decision was made to group the reticulata hybrid seedlings in with the Reticulata seedlings, by agreement the second cup was applied to the Best Reticulata or Reticulata Hybrid Seedling. These cups are awarded only for seedlings ot outstanding merit an promise, and so are not necessarily awarded every year.
The Clark Cup for Japonica Seedlings has previously been awarded to
