February Meeting Program
Come learrn about pruning at our February meeting. Wayne Myers will tell us about his battles providing spring haircuts to his 200 rose children. The monsters like 'rosa bracteata,' the 'Cherokee Rose,' and 'Reve d'Or' require special equipment (chain saw, ladders, protective gear, & ropes) and may take a full day for a single plant. In contrast, a whole bed of Minis or even Hybrid Teas may be finished in an afternoon.
