What is a Monthly Show/Meeting?
It can be
daunting to think of what a meeting could
involve. Is this a hobby only for the rich?
Do I have enough roses? But I am a
beginner... These are all things that flash
through people's heads as they contemplate
coming to an event.
The
simple answer is that the Queensland Rose
Society is made up of all types of people
and everyone will make you feel welcome. The
experience of some growers is outstanding,
but there are no secrets in roses. They will
share all of that knowledge with you and
without thinking any question is silly.
Monthly
Meetings involve a small rose show where
members bring flowers along at
7:00pm and put them put on display in
bottles provided at the hall. A list of
entry "classes" can be found at
Schedules.
These are then judged and at around 7.30pm
there is usually a presentation by either
members or guest speakers. There is time
before and after this to meet with
experienced rose growers to ask anything you
like, or just discuss the beautiful display.
The Society meets at Church Hall, 459
Annerley Road, Annerley Junction, Brisbane
at 7 p.m. on the second Wednesday of
February, March, April, June, July,
September, November and December.
Everyone deserves Flowers!
