The Hardy and Disease Rose Breeding Program, a partnership between the Canadian Nursery Association and Vineland Research and Innovation Centre in Ontario, is continuing. The second group of rose selections has been distributed to a variety of locations across Canada. Over 70 advanced rose selections will be evaluated for their black spot resistance, hardiness and ornamental values.
