Queen’s Herald February 2024

The June TRS Meeting will be “all about the rose show”: prepping your entries, watering, entry tags, class rules, staging, table locations, judging, & more.

Our program will be about fertilizer, presented by John. What our roses need, what kind to use, plus how and when to apply it.

The meeting will start at 7 with a Q&A led by Bruce about garden chores this month. Then he will share a program about spring pruning and planting of our roses.

A real treat this month: “Old garden roses you can grow in Tacoma area gardens” with Margaret Nelson, past president of the Heritage Roses NW Rose Society.

Our annual Rose Auction is on Thursday the 21st. This is our major fund raising event of the year. We’ll open at 6:00 PM, then the auction starts at 6:30 PM.
