  • The Explorer Rose Garden Is Finished by Sharon Saunders
    Friends of the Central Experimental Farm Summer 2014 Newsletter Volume 26 No. 3 The Explorer Rose Garden is Finished By Sharon Saunders greenhouse. In early May, the irrigation system was reconfigured and buried, and the soil level was brought up to grade using a combination of compost [bottom fill] and triple mix [top dressing]. By mid-May the post and rail fences were installed, creating the two borders separated by a wide path. The whole area was made level so there was no more stepping down into these new beds. The surrounding area was over-seeded with a grass and clover mix; the first cut was three weeks after sowing. The salvaged roses, 13 in all, were transplanted in mid-July into the new borders, flowering for a second time in a year. In October, the final stage of the remake was completed with the elimination of the large rectangular bed, keeping only the three pillar roses. Other roses from this bed were transplanted to the new borders or to the Heritage Rose Garden. The area was f f i l filled in with compost and triple mix, c h c n levelled and over-seeded. In addition, the i H . soil in the beds surrounding the Gazebo was R Explorer Rose Garden, 2013 raised to grade, which should revitalize the roses in that area. The former two signs (English and French) six-year project to re-configure the Explorer Rose Garden describing the collection will be placed in the new beds – one Ais complete – well, at least for now.

  • Rautio P.; Ruusunjalostaja Felicitas Svejda (1920-2016)
    Ruusunjalostaja Felicitas Svejda (1920-2016) Pirjo Rautio Suosittujen Explorer -ruusulajikkeiden jalostaja Felicitas Svejda kuoli 95-vuotiaana 18.1.2016 Alzheimerin taudin komplikaatioihin Ottawassa Kanadassa. Felicitas Svejda syntyi 8.11.1920 Wienissä. Hän opiskeli Wienin yliopistossa maa- ja metsätaloustiedettä ja valmistui 1948. V. 1952 Svejda jatkoi Ruotsissa koulutustaan kasvinjalostuksessa työskentelemällä tutkimusasemalla (Sveriges Utsädesförening) Svalöfissä. V.1953 Hän muutti Kanadaan toivoen voivansa työsken- nellä viljakasvien parissa Central Experimental Farmil- la Ottawassa. Koristekasviosaston katsottiin kuitenkin so- pivan paremmin naisille. Aikaisemmin siellä oli jo työs- kennellyt syreenejä jalostanut Isabelle Preston. V. 1961 häntä kehotettiin jalostamaan ruusuja. Myöhemmin hän on tunnustanut, ettei hän tiennyt mitään ruusuista. Pe- rehtyessään asiaan hän tutustui myös harrastajajalostajien saavutuksiin. Felicitas Svejda Europa-Rosarium Sangerhausenissa v. 2011. Kuva: Anita Böhm-Krutzinna Ottawan lämpötila vaihtelee paljon: -32 astetta Celsiusta talvella ja +35 astetta kesällä. Kasvukausi on lyhyt, sillä keskimäärin on vain 137 pakkasetonta päivää vuodessa. Talvenkestävyys oli siis erittäin tärkeää. Remontoivat ru- usut eivät kestäneet kuin suojaisilla rannikkoseuduilla. Svejdan jalostusohjelma alkoi v. 1961 ja perustui pääasi- assa R. rugosa- ja kordesii-hybrideihin sekä ruusuihin, jotka kanadalainen jalostaja Robert Simonet oli antanut hänen käyttöönsä. Työtoverit ja ruusupiirit eivät hyväksyneet hänen jalostusohjelmaansa,

  • Explorer Roses
    Explorer Roses Agriculture Canada began a rose breeding program in the 1960s under the direction of breeder Felicitas Svejda. Her objective was to use roses from earlier efforts and cross them with newly developed roses from Europe to create a series of roses that would be hardy, disease resistant, repeat blooming and easy to propagate from cuttings. A key component in this program was a new hybrid, Rosa kordessii, developed by the firm of Kordes in Germany. This rose was a relatively hardy pillar rose with long, vigorous shoots and exceedingly healthy foliage. Dr. Svejda also used several repeat blooming and compact Rosa rugosa varieties such as 'Fru Dagmar Hastrup' and 'Schneezwerg'. The results of this ambitious program have forever changed northern rose gardens. (Bob Osborne, Corn Hill Nursery, Petitcodiac, NB) Alexander MacKenzie Alexander MacKenzie is a tall, upright, vigorous shrub introduced in 1985. The plant reaches a height of 1.5 - 2.0 m and has a diameter of 1.2 - 1.5 m in Ottawa. It is winter-hardy, flowers recurrently, and is highly resistant to blackspot and powdery mildew. The deep red, cup-shaped flowers, produced in clusters of 6 - 12, have an average diameter of 6 - 7 cm and 40 - 50 petals. The flowers closely resemble those of a grandiflora or hybrid tea rose, but the plant has the distinct advantage of being much hardier. The rose propagates easily from softwood stem cuttings. This selection has been tested at Ottawa since 1972 and at other test locations in Canada, since 1978. It survives the winters in zone 3b without protection, but needs some pruning of deadwood in the spring.

  • Winter 2013 Vol 25 No 1
    Friends of the Central Experimental Farm Winter 2013 Newsletter Volume 25 No. 1 Questions, Questions, Questions Courteous, informative replies are provided to all such questions, with referrals where appropriate to agencies or other sources, and without recommending particular commercial establishments. What was that species? Perhaps the most interesting interaction for the staff is with other arboreta, gardens, or professional arborists and horticulturists. In addition to exchanges with the Royal Botanical Gardens at Hamilton and the Montreal Botanical Garden, they have had recent questions, for example, from Kew Gardens in London, England, the Akureyri Botanic Garden in Iceland, and the Nanjing Forestry University, China. A recent visitor to the Arboretum wondered whether a Catalpa bungei tree there was correctly identified. It wasn’t, and the resulting conversation with a professor from the State University of Canton, New York, resulted in AAFC receiving seeds collected at the Arnold Arboretum in Boston from a tree of that Catalpa species. f f i l c What was that contraption? h c n i Outside researchers often seek permission H . R to conduct experiments. In 2011, for example, ‘J. P. Connell’ rose (see Page 7), originated at the Farm by Felicitas Svejda visitors to the Arboretum may have noticed long, funnel-like traps hanging from trees. was at your beautiful gardens this week and fell in love These belonged to a Carleton University biology professor studying with a flower that I saw there.

    VOLUME 22: FEBRUARY 2011 World Rose News NEWSLETTER of the WORLD FEDERATION of ROSE SOCIETIES President Sheenagh Harris unveils Ruston statue in Renmark Photo – Brenda Burton 1 President’s Message Dear rosarians of the WFRS member countries, As we begin a new year, I wish each one of you a happy, healthy and fulfilling 2011 and thank you for all your wonderful messages for Christmas and the new year – beautiful cards, thoughtful and kind messages making it most enjoyable to be in touch with the many rose friends I have made throughout the rose world. As Rosarians we have much to look forward to starting with the 12 th International Heritage Convention in Sakura, Japan at the end of May. The Japanese Heritage Rose committee have been hard at work to ensure we, the delegates, enjoy an interesting and well organised convention with beautiful roses, interesting lectures, the magnificent City of Sakura Rose Garden and as always the joy of meeting rose friends from around the world. My two visits to Australasia in October and November last year were very special. The Australian rosarians certainly treated me like a queen, all going the extra mile for my comfort and enjoyment and I will always think of these loyal subjects as being warm and welcoming with the most delightful sense of humour. The unveiling of the sculpture of David Ruston, one of our most eminent rosarians, was indeed the cherry on the top and a most humbling honour for me, which will always be a highlight in my life. The roses in the eight public gardens I visited in New Zealand were superb.

  • Singularly Beautiful Roses
    ‘Tove Jannson’ ( ) Photo by Susanne Waldgarten SSiinngguullaarrllyy BBeeaauuttiiffuull RRoosseess A Publication Dedicated to Single, Nearly Single, and Semi-Double Flowered Roses Volume 6, Issue 1 Spring 2015 Contents A Variable Species………………………………………………………………………...Page 2 From the Editor ………………………………………………………………………….Page 19 Sources, Contact Information…………………………………………………………….Page 21 Page 2 A Variable Species Found in Scotland, Ireland, Wales, and England - on the northern coasts of Spain, France, Germany, and the Netherlands - in the cold oceanic climate of Iceland, Denmark, and southwest Norway - in the arid habitat of Central Asia - and in the mountainous regions of Central Europe and western Siberia, Rosa spinosissima is thought by some to have the widest natural distribution of any species within the genus Rosa. Its existence in continental Europe and the British Isles was noted by several sixteenth century botanists. The earliest mention appears in an encyclopedic work authored by Flemish horticulturist Rembert Dodoens in 1554 entitled Cruijdeboeck – “Book of Plants/Herbs.” It was subsequently translated to English (A Niewe Herball) by London botanist Henry Lyte in 1578. Lyte’s English translation reads as follows; Another reference can be found in The Herball or Generall History of Plants, an English translation of another of Dodoens’ works, completed by botanist John Gerarde in 1597. The given description exhibits the movement towards Latinized biological classification (taxonomy) to create a standardized method of plant identification and was accompanied by a woodcut illustration. Gerarde added that plants could be found growing in the villages and towns that surrounded the 16th century metropolis known as London. Page 3 In addition to common names like the Pimpinell, Burnet Rose, and Dune Rose (in coastal regions), its abundant distribution in and strong association with Scotland would lead to a label that has endured throughout the English speaking world - the Scots Rose, or Scotch Briar.

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.

  • York U Legacies 2019
    YORK U LEGACIES 2019 Inside: • Keeping Her Spirit Alive • A Legacy of Athletic Excellence • Improve Your Finances through Philanthropy and more Letter from the President I am pleased to share the latest issue of York U Legacies, our annual update on legacy giving at York University. Our 200-strong legacy donors are special members of York’s White Rose Legacy Circle. Their generosity and foresight allow us to plan for a future in which we realize our bold vision of providing a diverse student body access to a high-quality, research-intensive learning environment committed to the public good. Legacy donors often invest in programs and initiatives at the University that are close to their heart and reflect a deep understanding of the profound difference education can make in someone’s life. The stories in this issue of York U Legacies speak to this truth. They also demonstrate how our community members are working together to advance the four fundamental pillars that Rhonda L. Lenton are building York University’s future: access, connectedness, excellence and impact. This year we will celebrate York’s 60th anniversary. During this wonderful milestone in our history, there will be many opportunities to take stock of all that we have accomplished together, and to look ahead to a promising future for the University. I look forward to celebrating with you. Rhonda L. Lenton President and Vice-Chancellor We are proud to share that Impact: The Campaign for York University has raised a total of $400 million toward our ambitious $500 million fundraising goal. This funding has allowed us to not only realize our vast potential, but also to provide critical student financial support, establish transformative learning experiences, advance innovative faculty research and much more.
