The Art of Photographing Roses
Thursday, January 20, 2026
6:30pm
Join us for a special guest speaker, Betty Mott, from the Marin Rose Society, who will lead a presentation on the art of photographing roses. Learn valuable techniques for capturing the beauty of roses, printing your images, framing them, and even preparing them to enter the photography contest at the Rose Show.
Our Rosarians can help. We have several Consulting Rosarians (a rose expert trained to speak and teach about roses) in our membership who can answer your questions via email consultations.
From what variety to plant where, to pruning schedules, to best fertilizers and composts...our Rosarians are trained to help you with it all.
(In-person or on-site consultations not available).
