THE DIRT ON SOIL: GAYE HAMMOND
In this episode we are joined by a great Rose Chat friend, Gaye Hammond, to get all the dirt on soil Gaye takes us on a deep dive on the importance of good soil, moves in to take the mystery out of soil testing and pH, gives us up to the minute research-based info on fertilizers, and ends with the importance of mulch - and it's not just for "pretty!" NOTE: On the podcast, the products to use for raising and lowering pH were reversed... use Limestone to raise pH and use sulfur to lower.
 
Gaye is an outstanding resource for all gardeners, especially those who grow roses.
 
 
GAYE'S RECOMMENDATIONS: 
 
Expanded Shale: Check your local soil yards

Ron Daniels, a rose chat favorite, is here to give us advice on growing our rose societies.
 
Ron is the former president and current co-president of the Nashville Rose Society - a society that has seen phenomenal growth at a time when many societies have dwindling numbers.
 
 
MORE ABOUT RON...
 
Ron is a third-generation gardener who loves and enjoys growing roses. He also shares his experience with others who have the same desire to grow champion roses and other plants and to do so successfully.
Below are some of his rose growing achievements and skills:
Master Consulting Rosarian with the American Rose Society
Member of Nashville Rose Society — 2009 Bronze Medal Winner — Co-President
Consulting Rosarian for Belmont University Adelecia Acklen Rose Garden and other public and private gardens

Featured guest on 2 shows of the “Volunteer Gardner,” a national cable NPT television program
Featured guest on Rose Chat Podcast with the topic being “How to Grow Roses”
Ron’s Thoughts:
“I have enjoyed growing roses for more than 20 years and I grow and maintain 150 rose plants in my garden at my home in Hendersonville, Tennessee. These roses include Hybrid Teas, Grandifloras, Shrub Roses, Miniatures, Climbers, David Austin English Roses, and other companion plants. These roses provide me much pleasure, but they also provide for an ongoing flower ministry at my church, Long Hollow Baptist Church located in Hendersonville, Tennessee.”
Ron’s Personal Mission Statement: “To grow roses and to share with others. Teach beginners rose-growing basics. Open my personal garden up to public garden tours. To continue to learn about growing roses and remain teachable. Committed to mentor and encourage others on how to care for and share roses"
 
Here is the label that Ron referred to. These go on all roses at the garden centers they partner with.
