Queen’s Herald September 2023

Highlight: Keith says that if the temperature is 85 degrees or so, deadheading will change from 4pm to 10am.

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.

On Thursday, the 16th, we will be having our annual Rose Auction. Our meeting will start at 6:30 pm & the auction starts at 7:00 with Bruce as auctioneer.

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.
