Paul writes extensively about a beautiful new rose he has bred and named for the widely known and respected California rosarian Jeri Jennings. We should all be so lucky to have a Paul Barden rose named after us!
We are doubly pleased to reprint this article as Jeri is one of the HelpMeFind administrators who volunteers her time to make HMF the best it can be. In addition to her numerous article contributions to the site, she, in concert with all our admins, applies her insight and expertise to help monitor the collection and organization of information from around the world.
Jim provides a thorough review and nod of approval to this important work about the process of reporting and characterizing old roses. The manual is written by Judy Dean, Lynne Storm, and Bev Vierra and has received wide acclaim.
