The University of Georgia Trial Garden Classic City Awards have been awarded for 2024. We are happy to announce that the UGA winners include two from Ball FloraPlant. These awards are reserved for the plants with the highest flowering, foliage, uniformity and resistance ratings for the entire season. Although many plants are spectacular for a given time, the Classic City Winners represent the best overall.

Congratulations to:

Bright pink tropical blooms with green foliage

This season, UGA experienced a mild spring, a hot summer and minimal rainfall. As these were the perfect growing conditions June through July, the garden had lots to choose from and increased to 490 trials in all.

Check out these and other award-winning varieties in our full product assortment from A-Z.
