Brokers, growers, and retailers will want to add these proven garden performers to their assortments to prep for upcoming demand.

All AAS Winners are trialed throughout North America by professional, independent, volunteer judges who grow new, never-before-sold entries next to comparisons that are considered best-in-class. Only those entries that have superior garden performance, better than the comparisons, are granted the AAS award designation.

The Newest AAS Winners for 2026:

Heliopsis Sole Giatto – National Winner
Rudbeckia Claire Orange F1 – National Winner
Tomato BadaBing! F1 – Regional Winner

Previously announced 2025 AAS Winners can be found here.

Each of the newest AAS Winners will soon be featured in custom videos on their individual AAS Winner webpage and on the AAS YouTube channel.
