Program planned on growing roses

“A Rose for Every Garden” will be presented from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 6, at the Wyandotte County Extension Office, 1216 N. 79th St., Kansas City, Kansas.

The program will be presented by Laura Dickinson, a consulting rosarian with the American Rose Society. It is sponsored by the Wyandotte County Master Gardeners.

Anyone can grow beautiful roses, according to the program’s organizers, and all it takes is understanding the plant’s needs and picking the right variety for your garden.

The class will review basic rose care, rose varieties and how new hybrids are developed, as well as how to select the best roses for your gardening needs.

Registration is not required for the program. There will be a fee of $5. The fee will be waived for currently certified Extension Master Gardeners. For more information, call 913-299-9300.
