Suomen kaunein pioni -näyttely 1.-2.7.2023
Jo viides pioninäyttely yhteistyössä Suomen pioniseuran kanssa! Suomen kauneimmaksi pioniksi 2023 äänestettiin perinnettä huokuva ’Red Charm’. Voittajayksilön oli kasvattanut Suomen pioniseuran jäsen Anita Shemeikka Sonkajärvellä; suuret onnittelut! Tämän kirjoituksen lopulta löytyy runsas kuvagalleria näyttelyn pioneista. Kun kuvan klikkaa auki, tulee pionin nimi näkyville.
Ääniä pioneille annettiin 709 kappaletta; 346 lauantaina ja 363 sunnuntaina. Näyttely jäi nähtäville vielä seuraavaksi viikoksi.
Red Charm – Suomen kaunein pioni 2023
’Red Charm’ – Glasscock, 1944


Aiempia voittajia
Suomen kaunein pioni -näyttelyn äänestyksen luonteeseen kuuluu, että sama lajike voi voittaa kauneimman pionin tittelin vain kerran, joten tästä eteenpäin ’Red Charm’ pääsee mukaan kunniapöydälle aiempien voittajien kanssa. Alla kuvassa ’Red Charmin’ taustalla aiemmat voittajat ’Abalone Pearl’ia lukuun ottamatta.
Etched Salmon (2019), Bartzella (2020), Old Faithful (2021), Abalone Pearl (2022)

Kuvia näyttelyn pioneista
Kuvia on runsaasti. Monen pionin kohdalla useampi samasta yksilöstä eri päiviltä kukinnan kehittyessä. Kuvia saa jakaa, kaikkiin on merkitty vaikeasti huomattava vesileima.
