Judging Handbook

The aim of COSV judging is to recognise and reward quality in Cymbidiums (or their culture, where applicable) in accordance with COSV judging philosophy. These principles simplify judging practice and should provide a uniform and credible approach, regardless of the Cymbidium type.

The COSV Principles of Judging Handbook is free to download and only requires Adobe Reader to view it.
