Below are the categories and the prizes. Each category shall have only one winner (Certificate of Cultural Excellence).

For categories that were cancelled because the quota of three entries was not satisfied, I have lumped them all into a new category called "Other Carnivorous Plants". I want to encourage those who submitted their entries for this competition. Just because not many CP enthusiat here grow the CPs they submitted, it just feels not right to cancel the categories. They should be encourage and given the chance to win something for their effort and for growing something others are not growing or find it harder to grow.
