LOS ALAMOS GARDEN CLUB NEWS RELEASE

Members of the Los Alamos Garden Club invite the Los Alamos community to join us on Saturday, Nov. 14, at 10:00 for our ‘Putting the Garden to Bed’ Party. How do we put the Los Alamos Memorial Rose Garden to bed? With many hands it will be easy and fast! We spread 10 cubic yards of mulch around the rose plants, some of which may still be in bloom.

Bring gloves, and if you like, shovels, buckets, rakes, and wheelbarrows to help us tuck in the roses. This year has been an especially beautiful year for the Memorial Rose Garden. Whether it was the weather or the newly installed fence preventing the deer from feasting on the plants, the Memorial Rose Garden was especially prolific. We know the greater community enjoyed the blooming roses, and we invite you to help us care for the roses. Water and light snacks will be provided. Hope to see you there!
