The American Rose Society is offering a four month Trial Membership to new New England Rose Society members who are not American Rose Society members.  Current New England Rose Society members who are not ARS members may take advantage of the trial membership for a fee of only $5.  In addition, the general public who are not members of a local society or the ARS can have a four month trial membership for only $10.  This (admittedly fairly confusing) offer is a great way to learn more about roses.  Information and sign up will be available at New England Rose Society meetings, or you may email Manny at bettybigboy@comcast.net, or check www.ars.org.  The next New England Rose Society meeting will be held tomorrow, Saturday, November 20, at 10 am at Tower Hill Botanic Garden, but you may receive information on future meetings by emailing info@rosepetals.org, or by logging on to www.rosepetals.org.  Did you catch all that?
