According to the trial garden pamphlet given out to visitors, the 2015 trial consists of around 805 different types of plants. The plants are evaluated based on different criteria, such as floriferousness (flower-bearing) and how hardy the plants are to the environment.
Visitors can vote on their favorite plants either by filling out a form at the gardens or by visiting the voting website.
