SUMMARY:Free Rose Pruning Demonstration
DESCRIPTION:It’s pruning time for roses!\nValentine’s Day is over\, but roses still need special\, precise attention—it’s the time of year to stop and prune the roses! Join the Seattle Rose Society on Saturday\, February 28 at its free annual rose pruning demonstration at Woodland Park Rose Garden. \nDiscover the varieties of roses\, how to care for them\, how much to cut\, and how to properly use pruning tools\, such as a hand pruner\, lopper\, and hand saw\, for correct cuts and pruning techniques. The result: healthier\, vibrant shrubs! Plus\, meet rosarians and ask any questions about roses! \nAfter learning how to properly prune roses\, enjoy the glorious Rose Garden and stroll the grass pathways circulating through 2½ acres of rose displays. Though not in flower this time of year\, the extensive array of bush roses\, hybrid teas\, floribundas\, grandifloras\, and climbers blends elegantly with the garden’s formal architectural design for a memorable showcase landscape. \nInside the Rose Garden\, the Seattle Sensory Garden is designed for those with and without disabilities to enjoy. A variety of elements encourages guests to touch and explore at their leisure\, including deep-toned wind chimes\, temple bells and guiros—rectangular wooden posts with slots that create noise when touched. An accessible paved pathway\, special sensory-friendly carpeting\, and raised beds make for easier interaction with the variety of trees\, shrubs and bulbs planted throughout the garden. \nFor information\, visit www.zoo.org/roses. \nWHEN:\nSaturday\, February 28\, noon–3:00 p.m.\, rain or shine \nWHERE: \nRose Garden at Woodland Park Zoo\, 750 N. 50th St.\, Seattle\, WA 98103 \nCOST:\nThe rose pruning demo and admission to the Rose Garden: Free. \nParking in the zoo’s Lion Lot adjacent to the garden: $10 first 2 hours; $2 each additional hour; $14.00 maximum daily rate (+ taxes and fees).
