             Roses for New England

                 with 
Mike and Angie Chute

Roses should be red not dead, but it sure can be a challenge in New England. Mike and Angie are rose experts who shared their strategies for growing hardy, healthy, and disease resistant roses. Novice rose gardeners found everything they needed to know to successfully grow roses in our climate, and experienced gardeners utilized this program as a ready reference to enable them to grow better roses. Included where when exactly to plant, prune, and fertilize, which types of roses do best in our climate, and of course lots of beautiful pictures of roses!

This program included: six easy steps to growing roses in New England; how to select Winter hardy and disease-resistant varieties for New England gardens; the best way to plant and prune roses; and tips and personal anecdotes from the authors’ 25 years of rose gardening experience. Experts Mike and Angie Chute are authors of Roses for New England: A Guide to Sustainable Rose Gardening and Rose Gardening Season by Season: A Journal for Passionate Gardeners at rosesolutions.net.
