  • Marion Garden Rose Garden
    Marion Garden Rose Garden The Rose Garden is a work in constant change to demonstrate how to grow and maintain a variety of roses that are suitable for home gardens in the Willamette Valley. Selection of plants has been based on suitability for landscape use, resistance to disease, repeat blooming, and availability to the home gardener. If we find that a rose bush has a lot of disease problems or does not bloom well it is removed. The visitor will find mostly hybrid teas but also floribundas, grandifloras, shrub roses and an English (Austin) rose. There is also one upright climbing rose named ‘Antique’. Two clematis vines (Viola and Asso) have been planted on either side of the climbing rose trellis. Clematis are a good compliment to large climbing roses and add interest and color to the garden. All the rose bushes have ID tags which include the name of the rose, type, any awards it has received, name of the hybridizer, and the year the rose was introduced. There are a couple of roses that do not have ID tags because they were donated and names were not known. They are good disease resistant plants with a good bloom habit so are used for cuttings for rose propagation workshops. There is also a Lonicera fragrantissima (winter honeysuckle, January jasmine, or Chinese honeysuckle) growing on the northwest corner of the rose garden. It has fragrant white flowers in January and February. It was there when this garden was started and is a nice shrub for the home garden. It is pruned in the spring after it finishes blooming.

Treat each bush as a separate living unit • Water Oak . Done in February for everblooming types • Camphor • Magnolia . Older shrub roses: cut out dead wood and twiggy growth is all that is necessary ROSES FOR EASE OF CARE • Hume had limited access to modern fungicides when book was published in 1929. • Most of the roses he recommended in his 1929 edition are still in commerce and available.

  • Overview of the Dynamic Role of Specialty Cut Flowers in the International Cut Flower Market
    horticulturae Review Overview of the Dynamic Role of Specialty Cut Flowers in the International Cut Flower Market Anastasios Darras Laboratory of Floriculture and Landscape Architecture, Department of Agriculture, University of Peloponnese, 24100 Kalamata, Greece; [email protected]; Tel.: +30-27210-45199 Abstract: The global cut flower industry has faced serious challenges over the years, but still remains an important sector of agriculture. Floriculture businesses seek new, innovative trends and niches to help increase product sales. Specialty cut flower (SCF) production has increased in the past 20 years in the US, Australia, Africa, and Europe. SCF production and sales could increase further if these new products were supported by dynamic marketing campaigns that focus on their strengths compared to the traditional cut flowers (TCF) such as roses, carnations, gerberas, and chrysanthemums. The major strength of SCF is the eco-friendly profile, which is associated to low CO2 footprints and environmental outputs. This contrasts TCF cultivation, which is associated to high energy inputs, especially at the traditional production centres (e.g., The Netherlands). It is suggested that environmental legislations, production costs, and customer demand for eco-friendly products will positively affect future SCF cultivation and sale.

  • Tips for Displaying Cut Flowers
    TIPS FOR DISPLAYING CUT FLOWERS.... at home or at the fair 1. Remove the foliage from the portion of the stems that will be in water. Foliage covered with water will rot, discolor the water, and the bacteria growing in the water will block the stems causing the flowers to wilt sooner. 2. Labeling While bouquets at home don’t need labels, exhibits for the fair do. List the cultivar name as well as the type of flower (or vegetable) on the entry tag. Keeping records of what you plant and where will help you to know what each cultivar is when you prepare your exhibits. Exhibits without the cultivar or variety name are usually lowered one ribbon placing. Proper labeling insures that the judge can base the placing on the proper criteria. Good records also help you as you determine whether or not a specific cultivar is worth growing again. Finally, fair visitors and other exhibitors may be interested in growing the cultivars of plants that you grew and can get the information from the label. 3. Conditioning Flowers Conditioning flowers helps them last longer by reducing stem blockage and promoting quick water uptake. The vase life of many flowers, especially roses, can be increased by re-cutting the stems while holding them under water. This method prevents air from getting into the stem and blocking water uptake. Since you’ll need to re-cut the stems, always cut them as long as possible when harvesting your flowers. Cut the ends diagonally so they won’t rest flat on the bottom of the container.
