ROSE CULTURE AND HISTORY
Dr. Malcolm Manners
 
Dr. Malcolm Manners joins us to talk about his work with Rose Mosaic Virus and the beautiful rose gardens and rose collections at Florida Southern College. We also chat about the history behind the roses.
 
After listening to this episode, it will be evident why in 2013 he was awarded the "Great Rosarian of the World" for his many years of work on rose mosaic virus disease and as an educator in the field of rose culture.
 
 
ROSE GARDENS OF FLORIDA SOUTHERN COLLEGE
 
Garden areas are marked in red...
 
For those of us wanting to visit the gardens, Dr. Manners has shared some tips on the best time to do so!
 
The first two weeks in April are the very best, with nearly the whole garden in bloom. Usually, late November is pretty good, especially for Teas.
 
From April through mid-February, we always have quite a lot of good blooms. 
 
Parking Notes: 
 
Visitors could park in any lot not specifically marked as reserved for faculty/staff/handicapped, but probably the best lot to try can be GPS mapped as 915 Frank Lloyd Wright Way, Lakeland. That's a fake address, which leads to the entrance to the parking lot.  If you use the college's official address (111 Lake Hollingsworth Drive), it will just take you along the lake, and there's nothing really there, certainly no good parking.

A MILLENNIAL'S THOUGHTS ON ROSES
Andrew Barocco
Today we talk with a millennial about the future of roses and how they fit in with their lifestyle and culture. 
 
ANDREW BAROCCO...
Andrew Barocco holds dual positions, one in academia, and the other in industry, as both a graduate student under Dr. David H. Byrne in the Horticultural Sciences department at Texas A&M University, and the Director of the Breeding & Production Manager at The Antique Rose Emporium respectively.
He grew up in the Acadiana region of Southern Louisiana where he was strongly influenced by the Cajun culture and his Cajun heritage. He graduated from Louisiana State University in 2016 with an undergraduate degree in Horticulture. Also while at LSU, his undergraduate research successfully evaluated exotic sweet potato germplasm lines for new sources of insect resistance. Also while at LSU, he restored the Ornamental Sweetpotato Breeding Program and developed hybrid lines containing both ornamental foliage and commercial grade US No.1 storage roots. These sweet potatoes were patented by LSU and released by Concept Plants as the “Treasure Island” Series. The Treasure Island Series is also the recipient of the 2020 Green Thumb Award™.
He moved to Texas in 2017 to pursue his graduate degree under Dr. Byrne. His research is to determine the genes responsible for thornlessness in roses. Not long after moving to Texas, he began work at The Antique Rose Emporium. There, he took up the reins of reinvigorating the breeding program by making wide and difficult species crosses and working with rare varieties in order to introgress new and valuable traits into commercial and old garden roses.
Andrew is a (CNLP) Certified Nursery and Landscape Professional; placed as the 1st Overall Individual in the J. Benton Story Horticultural Judging Contest at the ASHS – Southern Region Conference 2015, and has served as the Student National President of the (ASHS ACB) American Society of Horticultural Science, Association of Collegiate Branches in both 2015 and 2016. In 2017 he was the winner of the William C. Welch Landscape Horticulture Scholarship. In 2019 Andrew became the recipient of the Rising Star Award from the American Rose Society.
Occasionally involved in student government, at LSU Andrew served as the Assistant Director for Campus Affairs and Sustainability from 2015 to 2016, and at Texas A&M he served as an emergency GPSC delegate, and a candidate for Student Body President 2018.

THE NATIONAL CLEAN PLANT NETWORK: Dr. David Zlesak joins us today to talk about this network comprised of clean plant centers, scientists, educators, state and federal regulators, large and small nurseries, and growers of specialty crops that all work together to ensure that plant propagation material is clean and available. He'll also be talking about some of his own rose introductions many of which are grown in gardens around the nation.  Dr. David Zlesak currently serves as a director of the American Rose Trials for Sustainability program and is a member of the Advisory board of the National Clean Plant Network for Roses.  
 
MORE INFO ABOUT THE CLEAN PLANT NETWORK:

MORE ABOUT DR. ZLESAK:
 
Dr. David Zlesak is a Professor of Horticulture at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls. As a kid growing up in Milwaukee, David loved being outside and gardening in their typical sized city lot. Gardening helped him feel close to his grandparents who lived a few hours away and still had a small farm. David enjoyed growing various plants his grandparents sent him home with, which included one rose. In 1984 a Sunday paper gardening section article about Will Radler's rose breeding hobby inspired him, and as a 13 year old he wrote to Will for more information.  David loved art, science, and roses, and breeding roses seemed to be the perfect thing to combine all these loves. Will got him connected to the Rose Hybridizers Association. Their newsletters and a local rose breeding mentor who became like an additional grandfather to him, Elton Strack, helped to solidify his love of roses and rose breeding.  
 
David earned his degrees in horticulture & plant breeding and genetics. For the past 11 years David has been teaching undergraduate horticulture students.  He loves to mentor the next generation of horticultural professionals and along the way use his experiences with roses whenever possible.. David is a long time member of the American Rose Society ant Twin Cities Rose Club.  He is a Master Consulting Rosarian and loves speaking to groups on roses and the research him and colleagues are working on. Besides rose genetics, David loves to work with landscape rose trialing efforts and studies disease resistance in roses. Over the past decade he has helped characterize new rose viruses and black spot resistance genes.

A new generation of rose gardeners are emerging on the scene and Brian Puckett is definitely making his mark in the world of roses. As curator of the nation’s first municipal Earth-Kind Rose trial, Brian has a passion for sustainable gardening and for helping others achieve gardening success. 
He put his design and planning efforts to good use as Vice Chairman of the Helena Alabama Beautification Board where he helped transform the cities landscape into a veritable paradise of plants using native perennials and Earth Kind Roses. These efforts have caught the attention of other municipalities who are now reaching out for advice and guidance as they transition into the world of sustainable landscape design. Last year, Brian collaborated with Texas A & M to launch the nation’s first municipal Earth-Kind Rose Trial and currently serves as the trial curator. Next month, he hit's the road with rose chat creator and America's Favorite Rose Gardener, Chris VanCleave on the "Rose Kings Sustainability Tour". “Innovations in rose breeding have now produced roses that are virtually disease free and they bloom like mad”, says Puckett. During the tour, we’ll reveal the various types of roses, their growth habits as well as the level of care they need so people can make informed decisions for their gardens.”
Brian joins us today to talk about the rose trial, about sustainable gardening and a whole lot more!
