The fall meeting was held at the UT Plateau
Educational & Research Center. There was no business meeting. The new
directory was passed out to all members who had paid their membership dues. A
potluck meal was then enjoyed by all.
The speaker was Jimmy Mynes from UT who is
working on his PhD in plant pathology. The presentation was on "Roses to
Rock Your World". Jimmy spoke about the research he is doing on roses
at the Research Center. He is collecting data on black spot, powdery mildew and
defoliation.
He spoke about disease resistant roses and
presented a list of roses that would be good to plant for disease resistance A
question and answer period followed and then all were invited to see the roses
and Jimmy explained the process of experimentation and what he was looking for.
