Our February 19th meeting

Our February meeting will be great! Our main speaker is TRS member Elena Williams who will be sharing her love of miniature and miniflora roses with us. She is a great speaker and a wonderful photographer, so you won't want to miss this talk.

At 7pm, before Elena, we will have several things going on at once.

Bruce Lind will be talking about pruning and planting roses. There will be a pruning demonstration. Be sure to bring your rose related questions.

Jo Martin will be talking about staging miniature arrangements. She will have some to demonstrate and she has invited members to bring their own designs.

Jim Leisner and Cliff Martin will be sharpening your pruners for a donation to the TRS. Be sure to label them with your name since many pruners look alike.

Come and enjoy the fun. Spring is coming.
