Mini Rose Show and Meeting
Bring your roses to our mini-rose show on Saturday, May 4, 2024 at Alladin Nursery and Gift Shop in Watsonville. Both members and the public are invited to show off their best blooms. Set up begins at 10 a.m. Most roses should be in a bud vase with the stem propped up for best display.
This is a non-judged show but all visiters can vote on Best of Show, Most Fragrant, and other categories. Stay for the meeting and learn about summertime rose care ... and what our local society is all about. Our host, Alladin Nursery, will have many roses for sale and they should be in full bloom. It's going to be a beautiful day!
