Zone 6 members met at Joyce and Robert Medford’s home. The group toured their rose garden. Mr. Medford told of their love for roses and how to care for them. Roses require a lot of care, food and water. Check for fungus, etc. and prepare them for winter. Mr. Medford showed and shared a protector made from light-weight felt paper. Set the protector over your rose bush, add 6 or 7 inches of peat and then fill it with leaves. Be sure to keep the roses covered all winter until all frost has left in the spring. Kristie opened the meeting showing a new attendance sheet. Members are to check their name at each meeting. The committee for Christine Scott’s memorial statue is going to check the price for a bronze statue. Bronze would be a better choice to be placed at the Pittsburg Public Library. Tim and Kristie Watson Bell served the refreshments. They were delicious and enjoyed by the members.
Norma Gilmore, Secretary
