2009 ARS Roses in Review Survey
Comments (12)Karl is right, as usual. We opened the survey up to anyone some time back. There are plenty of non-ARS members who grow roses and can do a good job of evaluating them, so why not get the advantage of their experience? By the way, we also have posted the results for the last several years on the ARS website so anyone can see them. It seems only fair that if we are going to ask non-members to report, they should be able to see the results. When you are using the online survey and you accidently hit the wrong name, you can just go back to the list and pick the right one. The system will remind you that you didn't file a report for the last one, but it will let you move on without it. Decobug, if the list of your reviews show Alan Titchmarsh, but without any ratings for it, we will drop it. If it does show a rating that you don't want, give me your name or email address and we'll delete it....See More2013 Roses in Review Survey
Comments (9)Diane - I am just ignorant, so if I should know the answer to this question I apologize. Question: Does the ARS have any plans to collect REGIONAL Roses in Review type data? Those of us who live in, for example, a Mediterranean climate in California would like to know which roses do well here, period, as we do not garden all over the country. We know that some roses which are disease prone here (rust, for example) are clean elsewhere, and visa versa - no black spot here, and covered with it elsewhere. Also, of course we do not care whether roses are "cold hardy", as we have very few nights of frost at all. A rose could very well be a 10 here, and a 3 on the East Coast, so I really do not see any worth in trying to rate roses all over simultaneously - the data is really not of much use. Just my opinion.

Comments (6)I'm so glad you posted this. I got my ARS mag with the varieties and was just waiting for you or Phil to post the link here so that I could get my say in. I hope this thread doesn't get buried, because I want everyone to participate. I so enjoy reading the reviews when they come out. I can't tell you how much $$ they have saved me over the years. I keep each years review and if I become interested in a rose years later I will have an additional source of information about it. Another reason to belong to the ARS. Thanks Diane....See MoreRoses in Review
Comments (1)Thanks I have an active post that I was going to pull up again for one last hurrah! Just a reminder to everyone, survey closes on September 26, so get your votes in. Even if you only grow one rose on the list, it may help another rosarian make a decision. Thank you! Here is a link that might be useful: 2012 Roses in Review Survey...See Morerosecanadian
