Judging

The assignments are evaluated through a blind judging process, meaning the judges do not know which florist created which piece. Each category—color, composition, idea, and technique—can receive up to 25 points. The evaluation considers composition rules, grouping techniques, rhythm, balance, proportions, external shape, color transitions, creativity, stability, and firmness.
