Mike The Gardener - Gardening Podcast - Rose of The Year with Marilyn Stevens of Roses UK

Hello and welcome back to another episode of the Mic the Gardener - Gardening Podcast. In this episode we are talking about one of our favourite garden plants roses. I know we all love a beautiful rose in our gardens so today I'm talking to PR and Project Manager from Roses UK, Marilyn Stevens. Roses UK oversee the very popular Rose of the Year competition and in this fascinating episode Marilyn tells me everything that’s involved with the Rose of the Year. I've been in gardening & horticulture for quite a few years but have to admit to not knowing exactly how much goes in to deciding the winner. I know you will be absolutely amazed. We talk about everything including: How the competition works How long the process takes  The naming process How supplies of the winning rose are bulked up, and lots, lots more As always, please don't forget to follow/subscribe as there's still lots more to come. And, if you are able, it would be lovely if you could leave a review with your podcast provider. You can follow Roses UK on Instagram by clicking here.
