SUMMARY:A Life With Roses
DESCRIPTION:Tom Carruth has created more than 150 rose varieties\, including 11 All-America Rose Selections – many of which you probably have in your garden!  He has worked in the Rose Industry in California for fifty years\, including at Jackson Perkins and Weeks Roses.  In 2012\, he retired from Weeks to become Curator of the Huntington Garden Rose Collection in San Marino\, CA. \nThe broad goal of Tom’s rose breeding was to make the rose a contender with all plants\, rather than a fussy queen of the garden. His hybrid introductions stress disease resistance\, fragrance\, floriferousness\, novelty\, and attractive habit. ‘Julia Child’ serves as a prime example\, achieving a worldwide introduction. The velvety purple ‘Ebb Tide’ was the first of a big color breakthrough. \nTom will share with us his inspiring “Life with Roses” – an experience not to be missed! \nA RAFFLE of roses and other items and the MONTHLY ROSE SHOW will be held after the presentation!
