Art Drysdale is one of Canada’s
best-known horticulturists. For the past four decades he has been writing,
and presenting radio and television broadcasts. He now lives on Vancouver
Island, but continues to host his own gardening programme on AM740
Primetime Radio covering most of southern Ontario. In addition, from March to
November Art is seen regularly, with daily gardening tips on Canada’s
Weather Network. He was also a contributor/horticultural editor to/of Plant
& Garden for 11 of the 13 years of that national magazine’s
existence.
The Canadian Rose Society, along with his many fans, is delighted to
welcome Art Drysdale back to Toronto to give the 10th Annual Goulding Memorial Lecture. He will be speaking on What's
Ahead in Rose Gardening: much more fragrance, true blue roses,
thornless bushes, faster development of new cultivars, greater hardiness
and improved disease and insect resistance!
The Goulding Memorial Lecture is an annual gift from the family of the
late Dun (Dunlop) Goulding to the members of the Canadian Rose Society and
other rose lovers across Canada. It has allowed us to present talks by some of the most prominent rosarians
in the world, and has been held in Montreal,
Toronto, Hamilton,
Calgary and Vancouver. A video of each lecture
is made available at cost for those who are unable to attend.
This year’s lecture will be as outstanding as those of the past, so
plan to attend. Refreshments will be served after the lecture and
Art will be available to answer questions.
Admission to the Goulding Memorial Lecture is free to all members of
the Canadian Rose Society and $12.00 to members of the public.
