Join us for our first monthly meeting of 2023!
We all have them! Favorite roses. But why are they our favorites? Are they fragrant, low maintenance, disease-resistant, heat tolerant? Or are they just beautiful? At this month’s meeting we will have a special panel of rose experts presenting information about their favorite roses, why they like them and where to obtain them. Here are the rosarians who have contributed to this presentation: Jim Price, Deborah Magnuson, Bill and Elaine Ornelas, Beth Van Boxtel, Steve Berry, Zella Burk, Christine Allan, Ken Huff, Bob Kolb, Rita Perwich, Sue Streeper and Virginia West and most of them will be part of the presentation panel at this meeting.

These rosarians have been growing roses for a very long time, sometimes decades and we are fortunate to have them as a resource in our society. There will be a prepared PowerPoint presentation with the speakers detailing each rose. The panel will then answer any questions you may have on your wish list for roses. Come and enjoy this lively discussion!

The meeting will start at 7:30 p.m. in Casa del Prado’s room 101 in Balboa Park. Pre-meeting Rose Care Program with Q&A From 7:00—7:30 p.m. one of our expert Consulting Rosarians, will be presenting a short program in the Consulting Rosarian Corner about successfully growing roses. This program will be followed by a question and answer period to offer attendees a chance to have individual questions explored and solutions offered.
