Notas del editor
- In 1932, the idea of All-America Selections for testing and evaluating new varieties of flowers and vegetables was started by Ray Hastings, a prominent seedsman who was ending his term as president of the Southern Seedsmen’s Association. He created National network of two types of trials: Flowers and Vegetables Standardized evaluations and scoring Incentives for breeders Independent, unbiased testing
