Roses are in Trouble
When a rose drops "out of the trade" there's a risk that it also falls out of the hobby. Demographic changes have taken their toll on rose suppliers, concentrating some large portion of sales into "landscape style" roses. Meanwhile, old garden roses and other garden-worthy modern roses are left to individual gardens and hobbyists to preserve.
Here's the link to the Bill DeVor presentation I mentioned: https://youtu.be/1fGsRSW02Vk?t=729
I didn't discuss it much in the video (I was already going long) but I think Facebook special-interest groups are a promising alternative to in-person garden clubs to connect gardeners who share your goals. In Canada (only), we're working together to preserve garden-worthy roses in this group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/CanadaRoseExchange
