Program: Pruning Demonstration and Rose Auction

Unsure about how to prune your roses? This is the meeting you've been waiting for. Learn from our ARS Consulting Rosarians as they demonstrate how to prune. Bring your questions, gloves, and rose shears. Free to the public.
 
After the pruning demonstration, we will hold our 6th Annual Rose Auction. Fill your garden with bargains from this popular event. Bring your already pruned roses and wrap them in a plastic garbage bag so we can keep the floor clean. Be sure to attach a label with the name and type of rose.
