I have accepted responsibility for the rose arrangement schedule for the Raleigh Rose Society 's May 2000 show. Here is my proposal so far, and it should be finalized by early in 2000. Details are below, but I'm choosing as the overall theme Reflections on the New Millenium , though strictly speaking the New Millenium begins in January 2001. We typically have two arrangement niches for full-sized roses and two for miniatures.
All arrangements are to be the exhibitor's interpretation of the class title.
Award Class 2 Respect, Understanding, and Harmony in the New Millenium Designer's choice. A modern or abstract arrangement. Fresh roses with fresh, dried, or treated plant material. This Division shall be governed by the current procedures and rules of the American Rose Society. Arrangement classes shall be open to all amateur arrangers registered.
