By paulgrow | Each year AAS judges get together to judge the “best of the best” flowers and vegetables. The panel is comprised of individuals associated with some of the premier seed companies in the country. These awards are not given lightly. Each entry must meet high standards in order to be considered for these prestigious awards. There are four winners for 2012, two each in the flower and vegetable categories.

| Paul this was a great way to learn about some new plants. I really love the new salvia and wish I had one of those watermelons to eat, right now. I was wondering how that melon would do here in the Pacific Northwest? |

| Lynn Only one way to find out, give it a try. I had an uncle who farmed in southern Indiana who grew watermelons and cantaloupes for a living. He started his seed in cold frames and transplanted into the fields when the weather warmed. His watermelons were around 40 pounds. Give it a try and keep us posted Gardening is cheaper than therapy and you get tomatoes. ~Author Unknown |
