The Annuals Garden and Pavilion features premier garden annuals from the All-America Selections (AAS) program. The AAS program promotes winners which include seed or vegetative varieties of annuals, vegetables, and herbaceous perennials. Superior garden performance is judged during impartial trials across North America. Founded in 1933, more than 700 plants have been introduced through this program. The garden presents the latest winners as well as past introductions during the summer growing season.

This garden, which includes a covered event space, was designed by Didier Design Studio and was completed in 2016. While the focus in on summer, plants are added for the various seasons. You may see pansies in the winter months followed by tulips in springtime.
