Eleanor Truax Harris Cup Rose Show Awards The Eleanor Truax Harris Cups were established in 1937 as a personal memorial to Mrs. Floyd Harris. They stand as an expression of the great love of the Garden Club of Virginia for the personality of Mrs. Harris, and as a tribute to her leadership in horticultural enterprises. One of three cups of old Georgian design is awarded annually, if merited, for the best horticultural achievement made by a member of the Garden Club of Virginia at each of the three annual shows-the Daffodil Show, the Rose Show and the Lily Show. The winner holds the cup for a year.
