Everything Is Coming Up Roses!

Earth Kind Roses
Earth Kind is an important designation given to select roses by the Texas
A&M University Agriculture program. Earth Kind Roses have been through
rigorous statewide testing and evaluation by a team of horticultural experts and
found to possess the high level of landscape performance and outstanding disease
and insect tolerance/ resistance. Talk will include illustrations of a
number of Earth Kind Roses plus information on site selection, soil amendments,
and bed preparations.
Pruning and Rose Care
Pruning rose bushes is intimidating to many gardeners, but actually very
good for the plants. Becoming an accomplished rose pruner takes time and
practice. Learn about properly pruning plus the basics of rose care.
This FREE seminar is sponsored by the Travis County Master Gardener
Association in partnership with the AgriLife Extension, Travis County. For more
information call 512-854-9600 and ask for the Master Gardeners desk.
