New England Rose Society

Teasing Georgia

Roses are one of my passions and when I moved to New England, I was in awe of many of the famous gardening institutions, including the New England Rose Society.  Members had been people that I read about in books!  I volunteered when I could at the demo garden in Waltham, MA, and even did a stint on the Board.  I was deeply saddened when the organization lost its demo gardens to cost cutbacks at the hosting organization and dropped out of  sight.  Recently, I was happy to find a web site with signs of life and wish them a long and rejuvenated life.

When I win the lottery, I’ll fund the rose garden at Tower Hill and we can all live happily ever after.  A woman has to have her fantasies.
