Brokers, growers, and retailers can add these proven garden performers to their assortments to prepare for the demand coming in 2025.
All AAS Winners are trialed throughout North America by professional, independent, volunteer judges who grow new, never-before-sold entries next to comparisons that are considered best-in-class. Only those entries that have superior garden performance, better than the comparisons, are granted the AAS award designation.
