All-American Rose Selection Challenge Trophy

This trophy is awarded for an entry of three Hybrid Tea roses, each an All-American Rose Selection, all different cultivars, one bloom per stem, each in a separate container. This award was presented to the District by All-American Rose Selections, Inc. All-American Rose Selections provides a test period of two years for rose submitted by hybridizers. Selection as an AARS winner usually means increased sales of the plants to the public. Many of the selections of the years since 1940 are still available for purchase.
