This month Ava will talk about rose selections for 2023, both new & old. We’ll review some tried & true ones that are available to start your collection.

We will start our September meeting at 7pm with, what has become a tradition, a
discussion about what roses did well for you in 2024. We count on everyone participating so that we get to consider as many roses as possible.

Our meeting at 7 pm starts with getting the garden ready for Winter. Our guest speaker Duane Scheidemantle will then share his work with cold hardy roses.

The TRS meeting on Wednesday May 20th will be our last chance to make sure we are all prepared to do what we can to make sure our 116th Rose Show is a great success in June! Be sure to attend so you can find out how to help with all of the logistics.

Our Annual Banquet will be held on Saturday January 24, in our new location. After a potluck dinner we will have the installation of TRS officers. Our program will take us to the World Federation of Roses in Japan
last May.

The April Zoom Meeting is April 15, with warm-up at 6.30 and a program at 7 pm focusing on early garden prep – given by our very own Master Gardener, Bruce.
