Everything’s Coming Up Roses! Seattle Rose Society seminars at Sky Nursery

Everything’s Coming Up Roses! Seattle Rose Society

Roses are the very emblem of romance and beauty, and they perform brilliantly here in the mild climate of the Northwest when you meet their basic needs.

Join rosarians from the Seattle Rose Society for a full day of rose mania. An affiliate of the American Rose Society, the Seattle Rose Society has been promoting — and growing — roses here since 1913! 
Among other activities, the Rose Society helped plan the Woodland Park Zoo Rose Garden (now a nationally recognized site with over 300 varieties), and every June they hold a Rose Show in which local rosarians and amateurs can compete.

The Rose Society will hold seminars on specific aspects of rose growing, and experts will be available to share their enthusiasm throughout the day.

Come for one of the seminars, or come for the full day!

• 10am - Rose Pruning: Roses require yearly pruning to perform their best. Learn the basics for each kind of rose.
• 11am - Rose Selection: Over a century’s experience goes into these top picks for the Northwest.
• 1pm - Planting, Mulching, Feeding, and Fertilizing: Roses reward proper care with lavish blooms!
