Awarded perennials

Every other year the ISU awards ISU-Diplomas to newly introduced perennials.
Perennials that have not been on the market for more than five years are admitted for evaluation.
As a rule the perennials are planted between one and two years in advance in an evaluation garden. During the congress they are evaluated by an international jury.

The elected perennials will be given a diploma and presented in word and picture on the ISU homepage.
A Series of perennials that have been awarded in the evaluation of new introductions of the ISU, such as Agastache 'Blue Fortune', Salvia nemorosa 'Markus' or Sedum 'Matrona', have become a part of the standard assortment in nurseries worldwide.
