Rose Disbudding
Is Explained by
Society President
Rose growers of the area who
plan to exhibit blossoms of hy
brid tea roses at the second an
nual rose show to be sponsored
by Medford Rose society June 2
should begin disbudding their
rose bushes now, Eldred Peyton,
president, has explained.
; As soon as the buds can be
distinguished, all but the top
one should be removed to allow
that one to develop into an ex
hibition : bloom. The side buds
may be pushed aside with a
toothpick or match and broken
off, the president advises.
; Early disbudding is stressed to
void the disappointment that oo
curred in a few cases last year at
the first annual show. Only
Single blooms qualify and signs
of recent disbudding . count
against an entry. Disbudding
should be continued until a few
days before show time, he states,
i At the special meeting of the
Rose society held recently, Glen
Brown of Ashland spoke on "His
tory of Old Fashioned and
Species Roses," and showed a
color film of European gardens.
Cochairmen for the show re
ported on awards to be given this
year.
New members, Mrs. H. E. Pey
ton and L. C. .McCay and a vis
itor, Mrs. Leo Taylor, were in

flowers of all kinds to the next
meeting.
