Rosy Tips

One of the services provided by the American Rose Society is access to a group of expert rosarians known as Consulting Rosarians.  These individuals can provide advice on all aspects of rose culture including selection of roses, rose varieties, planting roses, fertilizers, rose diseases, and the selection and proper use of pesticides.  In addition, Consulting Rosarians are there to help with problems that gardeners might encounter with their roses.  A list of Consulting Rosarians with their contact information and location within the Colonial District is provided below.

The Master Rosarians listed on this page are CRs that have been recognized through a nomination process and approved by the American Rose Society as individuals who have provided outstanding active CR performance for a period of at least 10 years and who have exhibited a willingness to continue as a CR.

If you have a question about your roses and would like to receive an answer by e-mail click here.

If you would like to become a Consulting Rosarian or nominate someone to be recognized as a Master Rosarian, please contact Ray Shipley at navybng@atlanticbb.net.

Do You Have A

District Directory?

 

The new 2010-11 Directory will be available at the 2010 Pre-Spring Meeting

 

 

The Colonial District offers an invaluable tool to its members in the form of a Directory that lists current officers, judges, consulting rosarians, and individuals who have been honored for their contributions at the District and National levels.  These listings provide the members the names of judges who might judge their shows, consulting rosarians in their area should they have rose problems that they cannot resolve, and knowledge about the current District officers and local society presidents. 

 

You may ask if it’s necessary to have the Directory since we now have a website.  The answer is a resounding, “YES!  There are many benefits to having the paper Directory.  First, it’s handy to have the Directory near the phone for easy access; second; the website does not list addresses, which are necessary for contacting judges to judge a rose show; and finally (and perhaps most importantly), not all members of the District have web access!

 

The Directory is sold at the pre-spring meeting.  The cost is minimal--$3 for one copy, or $5 for two.  If you are interested in purchasing a 2010-11 Directory and don't plan to attend the pre-spring meeting, simply contact Lynda Grass at 304/345-3634 or at lyndagrass@wvhdf.com with your request.  Once she receives your check made payable to the Colonial District, your Directory(ies) will be mailed to you.  Or, you may download and fill in the order form and mail it to her with your payment. 

 

All proceeds from the sale of the Directory go into the treasury of the District; no funds are ever taken by its publisher for its production.
