According to the Year of Rose Care – Winter calendar, in January we have the following tasks:
* Monitor the winter protection and add more if it is washed away by winter rains.
* Plan any changes in the garden, order seeds and plants.
* Plan to attend Nashville Rose Society meeting in February.
* Join the American Rose Society.
Not a lot to do in the garden – January is rather quiet. To touch base with friends of the Nashville Rose Society, plan to attend the Virtual Social Hour on GoToMeeting.
Stay in your comfy’s, grab a cup of tea, and spend an hour with friends in the Society talking about your holiday festivities and your plans for 2021, in the garden and otherwise.
In addition to socializing, John Wendler will do a brief review of the “Preliminary Programming Calendar for 2021” and will ask members for ideas on topics, speakers, events, etc. that would be of interest to our members.
For more information on how to log into GoToMeeting, please see Marty Reich’s email to NRS members. If you would like to attend as a guest, please submit your request on the Ask a Consulting Rosarian form on the website.
