AAS updates winner availability, opens 2026 trial entries
All-America Selections (AAS) has announced two updates for the horticulture industry: the publication of a new resource detailing AAS Winner availability from young plant suppliers, and the opening of entries for the 2026 Perennial, Ornamental and Edible Trials.
To streamline product selection for growers, AAS has posted a comprehensive list on its website detailing participating young plant suppliers that are currently producing AAS Winners. This resource complements the existing list of wholesale seed suppliers. Many of the listed suppliers also offer searchable or sortable availability databases that can filter by AAS Winner designation, making it even easier for customers to find the varieties they need.
“We’re very pleased to see young plant growers increasingly selecting All-America Selections (AAS) Winners for their product lines, which makes it even easier for consumers to find the varieties they desire,” said Alicain Carlson, National Garden Bureau president.
The young plant suppliers included in this year’s list are:
