Program - Roses and Animals of South Africa - Highlights of the World Rose Society Convention in South Africa
We are honored to have Jolene Adams, President of the American Rose Society (ARS), present a lively talk about Roses and Animals of South Africa. Jolene will present highlights and photos from her trip to the World Rose Society Convention in South Africa.
Jolene fell in love with roses as a teenager and hasn't gotten over it. Jolene grows over 150 roses of all types - Climbers, OGRs, Minis and Minifloras, Hybrid Teas, Grandifloras, Floribundas, Polyanthas, Austins, Romanticas, Modern and Classic Shrubs. She lectures widely on computing issues, general gardening topics and on roses. Jolene became ARS President at the Fall 2012 ARS Convention.

About the SCCRS
The Santa Clara County Rose Society (SCCRS) was founded in 1927, and is
affiliated with the American Rose
Society (ARS). There are currently
approximately 200 members in the SCCRS. Our mission is to encourage interest in the rose, to promote its cultivation, and to disseminate information on its culture among any interested people. Although this home page is mostly intended for residents of Santa Clara County, we hope that people outside the county will find it useful too.
