Something New on the AAS website: Judge's Observations
Want to know exactly what our Judges thought of these new varieties as they were trialing them? Click here to see the new "Judge's Observations" box on each of the newest AAS Winners. (It's the sixth green box below the photo.) Our judges are professional horticulturists so their observations about these entries-turned-winners will be important for the consumers to see and read. So, we are taking six (give or take) of the most helpful and positive comments from the scoresheets and posting them in this box.
Thoughts? Like or dislike? Let us know by emailing Diane!
BY THE WAY...the "Reviews" tab on each AAS Winner for anyone (general public, garden communicators, industry, etc.) to add a comment about their growing experience with that Winner. You too can put comments on that Reviews tab and feel free to say, you are an industry professional, you grew it, etc. Maybe we can make this the Yelp of AAS Winners!
