Early Season Bloom

The Early Season Bloom Award recognizes cultivars that provide exceptional performance at the beginning of the daylily blooming season. To be eligible, a cultivar must be registered as Early (E) or Extra Early (EE) and must have been registered for a minimum of five years prior to balloting.

AHS Garden Judges may vote only for cultivars they have personally observed growing within their own region or in AHS National Convention tour gardens. The award is presented annually to the cultivar receiving the highest number of votes from the Garden Judges, and the hybridizer receives a bronze medal.
