Beautiful images along with detailed descriptions of over 100 exciting new ornamental flowers and edibles from National Garden Bureau members are now available on the National Garden Bureau website.
This annual program is an important service to gardeners, retailers and garden writers as NGB's New Varieties program brings many of the best new varieties from NGB members all together in one easily-accessible location. Garden retailers and their gardening customers are sure to find many inspiring varieties for 2014 that will appeal to both new and experienced gardeners.
National Garden Bureau president Janis Kieft explains, "Each year our industry introduces an exciting selection of new and improved varieties of both flowers and edibles. As a gardener I look forward to discovering these new plants and growing as many as I can in my own garden. Being able to see photos and read information about them in one spot makes it easy to select the ones I want. This is certainly one of the most visited pages on the NGB website so it's a program we will continue for many years to come."

Besides being featured on the NGB website, these new varieties will also be highlighted over the next twelve months in bi-monthly NGB e-newsletters under "New Varieties." In addition, these varieties will be grouped in assorted sets to be featured on the Garden Guys radio show with host Sam Jeffries, which airs Friday afternoons at 3 p.m. Eastern. Pinterest users should look for these New Varieties as they are pinned to our Pinterest boards over the next few months.
