Our All-American Selections display garden is one of over 200 gardens across the country which have been developed to provide gardeners and non-gardeners alike the opportunity to view and judge for themselves the merits of the award winning vegetables and flowers. Flowers are scored on color, disease resistance, insect and weather stress, prolonged flowering, attrractiveness of blossoms, uniformity, uniqueness, and fragrance. Vegetables are evaluated for flavor, yield, appearance, texture, disease resistance, production and space efficientcy, nutrition, and novelty. The garden displays flowers and vegetables that have been winners in past years. The best viewing time throughout the year is May- June and September – October. The plants are changed out twice a year for best display during the changing seasons. All American Selections website link: http://www.all-americaselections.org/
