By 1911 Tacoma had been featuring rose activities for almost 20 years. So you can see, roses have been a big part of Tacoma activities since the early days.

The March program will focus on planting, including containers, and a
review of spring fertilization. Share your methods with us so we can all learn more.

Our program is about spring pruning and planting roses. This should get us ready for the “hands on” pruning at the Pt. Defiance Rose Garden on March 7th.

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.

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.

Monthly Highlights:
-TRS October Meeting is Oct 15 at 6.30.
-The Fall Conference will be on Zoom this year. Sign-up form is included.
