| Honors: | Best-of-class (BC). We select the best performer in each class, based on the "overall performance rating". This rating may not be high, if the class does not perform well (indicating a possible need for improvement in the class). The rating may be significantly different from one or more members of the class. If two or more members of a class received the same highest overall performance rating, we used another rating (such as overall foliage/flower rating or flower average rating) to determine BC. If only one cultivar was entered in a class, it automatically becomes uncontested BC. BC is evaluated in future trials against the performance of new entries in the same class. Refer to a report in "Articles, Papers & Reports" for detailed information. In addition to BC, other "honors" received for these cultivars may be added to BC at a later date, time permitting. Seed companies may forward these honors (awards) to Rick Kelly. |
| Rating System: | The rating is a 1 to 7 scale: 7- all foliage and flowers free from defects; 4- average foliage and flower condition, minimal plant defects or pest damage to tissue, but still acceptable; 1- foliage and/or flowers with severe defects and/or severely infested with pests and damage unacceptable, making plant undesirable. Plant death due to soilborne pests may be factored into the overall performance rating, if it is a significant problem. Refer to a report in "Articles, Papers & Reports" for details. If listed, ratings with an "a" are the best in a class. If cultivars share the same letters, those ratings are considered to be similar to each other. If there are no letters, there is only one cultivar in a class or all the members of a class have similar ratings. |

This crop was an outstanding performer with very good basal branching in this trial, and highly qualifies for display in our best-of-class public gardens. |

| Honors: Best-of-class, uncontested. |
| Comments: New entry for spring 2005. 'Serena' is said to be the first seed-propagated series. ‘Serena Lavender’ had very good to outstanding foliage fullness and uniformity. It took longer to develop a good flower display than ‘Serena White’, and was less compact than the white-flowered member of the series. The crop had good basal branching. No pest symptoms or plant deaths were observed. |
| Details of performance for this cultivar will be posted on the web in "Articles, Papers & Reports" at the completion of this trial. These details will include ratings over the entire season and pest problems. |

| Comments: New entry for spring 2005. 'Serena' is said to be the first seed-propagated series. ‘Serena White’ had very good to outstanding foliage fullness and uniformity. It took less time to develop a good flower display, and was more compact than ,' Serena Lavender', the purple, red-violet -flowered member of the series. The crop had good basal branching. No pest symptoms or plant deaths were observed. |

| ROK |
| 1. The number of weeks from seed sowing to the date the plant was photographed. Photographs were taken in a field sprayed on demand as needed, after scouting for pests, and a field that is not sprayed at all. |
| 2. Average number of days from sowing to unfurling of the first flower in the plots. |
| 3. The average of the combined foliage and flower data in the sprayed field as an expression of cultivar quality; rating scale: 1 = poor to 7 = excellent (details above). |
| 4. The average of the combined foliage and flower data in the unsprayed field as an expression of arthropod and disease symptoms; rating scale: 1 = poor to 7 = excellent (details above). |
| 5. The average of the combined overall foliage/flower rating and overall pest rating; rating scale: 1 = poor to 7 = excellent (details above). If plant death from a soilborne pathogen resulted, this was factored into the rating. See Articles, Papers & Reports for further explanation in the reports. |
