In the Gold Seal room, off limits to all but show officials, the Show Director will group all Amateur singles together and all Amateur Doubles together. He will do the same for all singles and doubles of the other three classes. Miniature singles and doubles are also separated accordingly. During final judging of all Gold Seal blooms, a bloom from each exhibitor classification and configuration, along with a miniature single and double, receiving the most votes become eligible for the Head Table. There can be run-offs during this process.
Same procedure is followed for doubles.
Best Amateur Double. Seedlings are judged as singles, doubles or miniatures and are not entered in exhibitor classifications. There is no move up of a second-ranking seedling bloom. When a hybridizer chooses to name a cultivar, it should be registered. A complete and accurate description is required for registration so that, when judged, the judges will have a guide to tell them how the bloom should look.
