  • Vortragsreihe Rosenverwandtschaften
    Rosenverwandtschaften Teil 7: Moderne Romantikrosen Der Traum hält an GRF-Freundeskreis Ulm, 18.09.2016 Josef S. Distl, Oberkochen Rosenverwandtschaften Inhalt Teil 7: • Alte Rosen in England – Edward A. Bunyard • Graham Stuart Thomas • Rosenzüchter David C. H. Austin • Erste Austin-Rosen • Abstammung wichtiger „Englischer Rosen“ • Weitere Züchtungen von Rosen „im romantischen Stil“ Alte Rosen in England Nach der Anerkennung der Hybrid Teas durch die NRS wurden die Alten Rosen in England schnell abgelöst. Es gab in England Anfang des 20.Jahrhunderts keine Anstrengungen, ein Rosarium wie Sangerhausen oder L‘Haÿ les Roses zu gründen, um die Alten Rosen zu erhalten. Die Liebe von Joseph H. Pemberton zu „Grandmother‘s roses“ führte zur Züchtung der „Hybrid Musks“, wirkte sich aber sonst wenig aus. Wenige Liebhaber sammelten und „erhielten“ Alte Rosen. Edward Ashdown Bunyard (1878 - 1939) war als Apfel-Enthusiast bekannt. Er ist heute noch bekannt für seine Bücher über Nahrungs- mittel („The Anatomy Of Dessert“, „The Epicure‘s Companion“) und über alte Obstsorten („A Handbook Of Hardy Fruits“). Weniger bekannt ist heutzutage, dass Bunyard auch eine Sammlung Alter Rosen besaß und darüber 1936 das Buch „Old Garden Roses“ herausbrachte. Graham Stuart Thomas (1909 – 2003) 3.4.1909 Thomas wird in Cambridge in eine Familie von Garten- und Musik-Liebhabern hineingeboren. Mit 6 Jahren soll sich sich sein Interesse an Pflanzen entwickelt haben, als er eine Fuchsie geschenkt bekam. Einmal soll er ½ Crown – ebenfalls ein Geburtstagsgeschenk – auf dem Markt von Cambridge in Alpine Pflanzen „umgesetzt“ haben. Mit 8 war ihm klar, dass er einen gärtneri- schen Beruf ergreifen würde. Mit 17 fing Thomas im Botanischen Garten in Cambridge an.

Internship Program Reports. 7. https://repository.upenn.edu/morrisarboretum_internreports/7 An independent study project report by The Charles C. Holman Endowed Rose and Flower Garden Intern (2017-2018) This paper is posted at ScholarlyCommons. https://repository.upenn.edu/morrisarboretum_internreports/7 For more information, please contact [email protected]. An Evaluation and Interpretation of the Roses in the Rose Garden Abstract This project aims to assist current and future rosarians in evaluating the roses in the Morris Arboretum’s Rose Garden. This will be accomplished by updating the current Rose Garden database and researching the histories of selected roses. An updated database, plus the monthly evaluations of the roses, will allow for the determination of the best performing roses for this area. The histories will serve to highlight the importance of the Rose Garden and Rosa as a genus. Acknowledging the lack of consolidated information about the Rose Garden available to the public, this need will also be addressed. A website for the Rose Garden will be created for use by the public. A self-guided tour will also be created and posted on the Rose Garden website to encourage visitors to see the entirety of the Rose Garden. As a final product, interpretive metal photo labels will be created to be placed in front of the ten roses.

  • Newsletter 89 July 2003
    The Newsletter of the IRISH GARDEN PLANT SOCIETY ISSUE NO. 89 JULY 2003 E d i t o r i a l Dear Members, The Annual General Meeting weekend was a most successful event. Those of you who have not attended one of these weekends should keep the first weekend in June of next year free for this event. The background work and excellent organisation of the committee members of the Northern Area group ensured we all enjoyed ourselves. I’m sure the other members will not resent my giving particular praise to Patrick Quigley for his work over this weekend. He was the one to ask for information and advice and he gave of his time both generously and good humouredly. I haven’t heard a lot from him since and wonder if he has recovered yet. A special thanks also to the members who welcomed us into their gardens. This was much appreciated. A full account follows in the newsletter. It is sad to report the loss of a gardening great and Graham Stuart Thomas was certainly one of those. His death in April of this year was indeed a loss to the gardeners of these islands but his thoughts live on in his many excellent books. Charles Nelson, friend of GST over many years has penned a fitting tribute to him for the newsletter. Paddy Tobin, Editor.
