Roses are our national flower and there are many that are well-adapted, hardy,and easy to grow in Minnesota.  The many Northern Earth-Kind Rose Trial plantings are helping identify the best of the roses for our region and the Muriel Sahlin Arboretum is an Earth-Kind Rose Trial Demonstration Garden. In this class we will highlight different classes of roses and some cultivars that are doing especially well in Minnesota. We will also highlight the basics of general care for roses throughout the growing season.
