market. With that in mind, ourprogram for January will feature the new roses being introduced in2016, along
with a “look back” at some recent introductions, with anassessment of how they are doing in our area. Meg
will briefly describesome of the "test & trial" programs and show pictures of many of thewinners, along with

has a wealth ofknowledge to share with us. She will briefly describe some of the“test & trial” programs and
show pictures of many of the winners. Mostof the new roses will be in local nurseries in late February – early
