How do I register an award
 
One of my plants received a CCM at the recent PROS show in San Juan Puerto Rico. I was told I have to do some paperwork to register the award. What do I have to do?

AFAIK there's nothing you have to do. The award is given to you. If you've owned the plant for over 6 mos you qualify. If the plant's name needs to be registered you have to do that (see the RHS orchids registrar for the application, fee about $16.50)

Eventually the AOS will send you the paperwork to pay for the award. You pay the fee and voila.

Mahzletov!

Or ask Jose. *G*

I sent Jose my address so I guess that part is already done. Thanks.

Ricardo, the award you received was a CCM or a Certificate of Cultural Merit on the Coel parishii. This is given to the owner ( you ) for growing it so well ( you told me you have a bigger one at home! ) so when the AOS receives all the paperwork from the show ( via José ) the only thing you will receive is an invoice from the AOS for $36 ( if you are a member of the AOS ) or of $60 ( if you are not ) to cover the processing and publishing of the award on AQ Plus ( the award program ).
Since it is a species, you do not have to register anything. Just sit tight until you receive the invoice.....then pay promptly....lol
Don't worry, I'll send you the photo of the AQ PLus page when it is published.
