Here is a taste of what we did:
Heritage Rose Foundation president Stephen Scanniello, and Hollywood Cemetery board member Peter Toms, working on the Crenshaw Musk Rose.
Delicately pruning a rose that's struggling.
Thinning a very vigorous 'Archduke Charles' rose.
Discussing how best to attack a very overgrown, storm-damaged Tea rose.
Removing an invasive mulberry tree from a rose.
Clearing weeds and grass from the base of this rose.
I took very few photos. Some of the volunteers and cemetery staff had their cameras in action during the day, and I can share those pics with you as soon as I get them.
It was a wonderful, wonderful day. It's great to have a plan come off exactly as planned ... and even better when everyone has such a great time while it's happening.
Happy Sunday, Everyone!
