Freebie: Rose Care Calendar

Special thanks to rose experts Dick & Sue Streeper for teaching our Roses 101 class today! Dick Streeper's Calendar of Care for Roses, free download

If you missed out, you can still score a free copy of Dick's Calendar of Care for Roses.

It's a handy one-page solution to growing beautiful roses in San Diego.

And by-the-way, this year's San Diego Rose Show is on Mothers Day Weekend, May 12th-13th, at the Scottish Rite Center in Mission Valley.

It is like the Del Mar Fair's flower display... but ten-fold!

Amateurs are encouraged to show their roses.  To participate or volunteer, email show coordinator Linda Clark.
