This course covers:

Variety selection for cold climates (zones 3-7): including factors contributing to cold hardiness, tracing rose genetics, bloom cycles, preferred varieties by color, hybridizer tips.

Plant and planting choices: We’ll teach you about bare root plants vs. potted plants, and own root vs. grafted and budded roses, siting rose beds, planting practices and windows for cold climates, and planting schematics for production. -All from the perspective of growing in a challenging climate.

We also cover watering, fertilizing, marker temperatures and ventilation.

Disease and Pests: Many people have the notion that roses are too hard to grow. When we learn the science of the plants’ preferences in our climate and understand how to provide for them, we can grow healthy crops. We also share information and our experiences with disease and pest resistance, prevention, and treatment, growing under cover vs. outside (and how to create structures for roses if you’d like to add cover).

We also examine harvest and post harvest care including the stages of harvest and their pertinence to your type of use or sale.
