This Newsletter will act as a Reference for UNSHkins and other rosarians and nurseries. The spreadsheet summary of Australian Rose Breeders and their registered progeny is chronologically arranged. Future Newsletters will include which nurseries carry the rose cultivars with details of nursery contact details. In the meantime, two nurseries in the UNSH geographical zone are Green E Roses in Galston and Mother Earth Nursery in Annangrove. Klaus and Brigitte Eckardt from Green E and Mark Massey from Mother Earth Nursery are UNSH members and carry publicised Australian Bred roses. There are other nurseries that carry them but do not include the Australian Breeders name nor identify that it is an Australian Bred rose. This comprehensive up to date list will aid members in their search. Armed with the name and breeder, they will be able to ‘Google search’ their desired rose. There are a number of reasons why the included reference material will be helpful. 1. The Australian Bred roses are specifically bred for the harsh climatic conditions of our country. Roses naturally occur in the wild in the Northern Hemisphere. Alister Clark, in particular sent out researchers to collect the hardiest roses with which he could cross. 2. It supports the concept ‘Buy Australian’ which helps our struggling nursery industry. 3. It helps you to be a part of Australian history, by planting collections and helping to keep alive the hard work of Australian rose breeders. 4. ‘Collections’ are fun and addictive! Tracking down plants for your garden. How to use this information? Print or save this document. Walk around your garden and highlight the names of the roses you have on the sheet. You will be amazed how many Australian Bred (AB)roses you have. You will then be able to exhibit them specifically on the UNSH Monthly Show Bench. Remember that these AB roses can also be shown under their own class. ie. Hybrid Teas, Floribundas, Miniatures.

Most roses and breeders have been checked with all of these sources. "Help Me Find' Database is an excellent reference to determine bred /found rose country of origin and date when not elsewhere.

  • 10 Stupid Things...Gardeners Do to Mess up Their Rose Garden
    10 Stupid Things... ... gardeners do to mess up their rose garden by Carolyn Elgar Everyone makes mistakes. To err is human. So as much as any gardener refuses to admit it, you can bet they have done something stupid in their rose garden. Comfort yourself with the knowledge that everyone, even the most conscientious rose lover, has made one of these mistakes at some point in their history with roses. 1. Buy too many. If you truly love roses, you have definitely done this. You read about a new variety or see an incredibly healthy rose at a nursery. “I can find a place,” you say. Oops! When you get home and look around, you have to face the realization that, unless you tear up more of your lawn, there is no more room for one, not even a little one, rose bush in your garden. If you persist and sneak the newbie into the ground between two established roses or in front of a large bush you will pay the price. Mildews and rust will enjoy the increased humidity of all that foliage. Plus the young, new rose will have to fight for its share of water and fertilizer. 2. Throw away the label. This can happen in a number of ways. The label may fall off in the car. You may cut off a wired label that seems to be adversely affecting a cane’s health. And finally the name of the rose may be printed on the pot it came in and that pot disappears after you plant or repot the rose.

  • 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.

News… Words from the President… By George Gabriles The Spring Plant Sale was a success, and though it did not bring in a large amount of money, as in prior years, we did manage to net an estimated $6500.00. From the standpoint of membership participation it was a big success, particularly with the number of new Interns that came out to help. If you have visited the Greenhouse lately you have, hopefully, noticed the 50 ft. x 165 ft. plowed section of ground ready for planting, thanks to the hard work of Jesse and Ray. Here is your opportunity to stake a claim to a section and plant veggies of your choice and make them grow. You can do this individually, or recruit some other members to help.

  • Controlling Diseases and Aphids on Your Roses
    EC 1520 CONTROLLING DISEASES AND APHIDS ON YOUR M. Hoffer, J. Pscheidt, and J. DeAngelis oses are the most popular perennial flowering plant in the United States, and they grow well in Rosesthe Pacific Northwest (PNW). Our climate provides ample rainfall during the peak leaf growth R period, moderate winters that rarely result in freezing damage, and warm, sunny summers for flower production. Wild roses grow throughout the region, testimony to this favorable climate. Unfortunately, the same conditions that favor roses also favor their diseases and pests. Frequent rainfall and high humidity encourage several leaf diseases. Mild winters allow pests and diseases to live through the coldest part of the year, and warm summers give them the chance to build up their populations to survive yet another mild winter. Moreover, wild roses have the same diseases and pests as do domesticated varieties, so they serve as a constant reservoir of problems. Because of their disease and insect problems, many home gardeners perceive roses as “trouble plants.” But roses need not be considered difficult to grow. Simple adjustments in how you tend your roses can improve your results. This publication discusses the most common rose afflictions: black spot, rust, powdery mildew, and aphids. It identifies conditions that favor infection and suggests practices to help you effectively control these problems. Rather than discussing controls for each specific problem, the rose is treated Molly Hoffer, senior faculty as a whole. A year-round approach to pest control will help you manage all of these common problems. research assistant in botany and plant pathology; Jay W.

  • Mickey Mayhew Phd Final2018.Pdf
    ‘Skewed intimacies and subcultural identities: Anne Boleyn and the expression of fealty in a social media forum’ Mickey Mayhew A Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Sociology at London South Bank University Supervisors: Doctor Shaminder Takhar (Director of Studies) and Doctor Jenny Owen Faculty of Arts and Human Sciences, Department of Social Sciences & Department of Media and Cultural Studies, London South Bank University 1 Abstract The aim of this research project was the investigation of a subculture surrounding the famous Tudor queen Anne Boleyn; what that possible subculture means for those involved, and if it constituted part of a new phenomenon of female orientated online subcultures; cybersubcultures. Through the analysis of film, TV, historical literature and fiction, the research illustrates how subcultures are perpetuated through generations cyclically. The research then documents the transition from the traditional or ‘classic’ subcultural model of the 60s to the 21st century cybersubculture and fandom, suggesting a new way of thinking about subcultures in a post-subcultural age. The research suggests that the positioning of Anne Boleyn as a feminist icon/role model, based mainly on a media-mediated image, has formed a subculture which thrives on disjointed imagery and discourse in order to form a subculture of peculiarly subtle resistance. This new cybersubculture reflects the ways in which women are now able to use social media to form communities and to communicate, sharing concerns over men and marriage, all whilst percolating around the media-mediated image of Anne Boleyn as their starting point. These interactions – and the similarities they shared with the ‘classic’ subcultural style - form the data for this research project.
