“We are very happy and encouraged that more and more young plant growers are choosing AAS Winners for their product assortments. As the diversity of AAS Winners expands and availability increases, consumers will find it even easier to find the varieties they want.” states AAS Executive Director Diane Blazek.
It includes all Winners from 2005-2024 and includes some older, classic AAS Winners.
All-America Selections was founded in 1932 and continues as the oldest independent plant testing organization trialing in North America. Every year, never-before-sold varieties are trialed in our Trial Grounds where professional horticulturists determine which varieties will be deemed winners based on their garden performance. AAS relies upon a public relations program to inform gardeners about AAS Winners that are announced three times a year.
