 Proven Winners®
ColorChoice® is not just
another brand of plants. They are a select group of new, colorful, easy growing
plants selected specifically for the North American gardener. We search the
world for the best new plants and test them to make certain you get only the
best performing, most colorful varieties.
How a new plant becomes a Proven
Winners ColorChoice variety
A
new plant must prove itself as superior to get into the Proven Winners
ColorChoice program. Novelty alone is not enough. Potential varieties are
evaluated against existing varieties in side by side evaluations and are graded
on the following criteria:
· Is the
plant an improvement over
current
selections?
· Is it a healthy growing plant,
with superior disease and pest resistance?
· Does the plant have multiple
seasons of ornamental interest?
· Does the plant serve a new or
unique function in the landscape?
If a new variety scores well in this initial evaluation, it's then subjected to
a production evaluation. If a plant performs well in production, it's then made
available to progressive growers across North America.
