7:00 p.m.     Call to Order

The Program will be provided through the participation of members, guests, and the public who bring some of their roses and get the chance to prepare a variety of displays:  English Box, American Box, Artist Palette, and a rose Floating in a suitable container.

English Box - 1)  6 regular-size (other than miniatures) of one variety or
                           a combination.  (Varieties include hybrid tea, grandi-
                           flora, shrub, climbers.)                     

                    2)  6 miniature roses of one variety or a combination; this
                           includes mini-flora.

American Box - 9 miniature/mini-flora blooms in any geometric pattern,
                          two or more varieties, no foliage.


Artist's Palette - 5 different miniature blooms in a range of different
                           colors.

In the boxes and palette, there are to be no visible stems and foliage.  The boxes and palette will be provided by the society.

Floating Rose - One rose, any type except miniature, at most perfect
                         stage, floating in a "suitable container" with one set of
                         detached leaves.  Bring your own container for this one.

Any time miniature is mentioned, it also includes the mini-flora classification.

In the process of putting together these displays, our rosarian (expert) will discuss what makes a winner--it's a chance for us all to learn.  You don't have to bring any roses to come and have the fun of seeing lovely blooms and share in the camaraderie; interested community members are always welcome.  Refreshments will be served.
