Corkill Memorial Trophy

A winning entry of Six Japonica Blooms takes the Corkill Trophy which was donated by Miss Olga Corkill in memory of her brother Mr Vic Corkill who died in 1980. He was a stalwart of the South Taranaki Branch and a Council member for many years and a keen exhibitor, particularly in Japonica classes.
The silver tray was first awarded in 1981.
