Blc. (Rlc.) Mellow Vista AQ/AOS, AOS Award No. 19680139, newly digitized from Pacific South award slides. Photos for older Awards of Quality seem to be rare; it may be that publishing them with sufficient resolution was considered too difficult and expensive. Award text: "A group of twelve plants showing significant improvement in the C. aurantiaca lines both for form and color; colors varied from near clear yellow to salmon-peach and near orange, all with distinctive lips; awarded by unanimous vote of judges present", no measurements given, exhibitors Fred and Kay Francis, Pasadena, CA. There are, however, 13 plants in the group photo; presumably, the single flower on the left was not considered for the award.
