SUMMARY:Carnation Lily\, Lily Rose - What the Past Tells Us about the Future of Roses!
DESCRIPTION:Gregg will take us on a deep dive though the human connections with the rose.  From the ancient China Rose to the fabled Damask\, Musk and Bourbon roses\, he will lay out what we’ve learned in the past few decades about ancient garden roses and their connection with humans\, similar to our connection with domesticated pets. \nDoes rose breeding have any long-term effect on how we think about roses or how we grow them? Why is buying cut roses never the same as growing and cutting them? Why do so many rose lovers shun wild roses?  What can we learn from our indigenous sisters and brothers? Gregg will discuss these questions and more! \nGregg Lowery has been collecting old and rare roses since the early 1980’s at his Sebastopol Nursery\, which has evolved into The Friends of Vintage Roses\, a non-profit dedicated to preserving these special roses – most of which are not available commercially. \nA RAFFLE of roses and other items and the MONTHLY ROSE SHOW will be held after the presentation! \n  \n

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!
