She participated in a summer internship at Bowman’s Hill Wildflower Preserve in New Hope, PA learning all about the native flora of the Mid-Atlantic Region.
Following graduation, she spent a season as an intern at Stonecrop Gardens in Cold Spring, New York.
In 2006, she began employment at The Conard-Pyle Company, now known as Star® Roses and Plants.

Our next program will be on Saturday, January 9, 2021, via GoToMeeting, at 2PM ET. Chris VanCleave will present a program on the AGRS™ 2021 Winners. He will also talk to us about selecting roses for next year and how you can have a beautiful blooming rose garden! Chris is the Co-host of Rose Chat Podcast and is known as the Redneck Rosarian. He is also AGRS™ Marketing and Publicity Director. Chris is an outstanding speaker and I know you will enjoy his program. In addition, this is a great time to start planning new additions to your garden and this program will give you the valuable information you need to make the right choices.
All members will receive an e-invite with a link to the meeting. Be sure to check your email for the invitation a few days before January 9th. Please contact me if you do not receive the invite. pshanley@aol.com
We will not host a Practice Session this month, but if you need one, please email me and we will help you.
We have a line up of great speakers planned for you for 2021. Be sure to check out the Events page on this website for details of upcoming programs.
I am happy to report that the GoFundMe page, hosted by AGRS™, for Rose Rosette Research has raised $10,285 to date. We still have a way to go in raising the necessary funding to keep this research going. If you have not already donated via the GoFundMe page, please help us and donate whatever you can today. Every donation is so important! Details and a link to the GoFundMe page are on this website. If you would rather not make your donation, online, please contact me for information on how to make your donation offline and still be listed as a donor on the page.
Sadly, the Rose World mourns the passing of Clayton Beaty. Clayton was President and Owner of Beaty Fertilizer Company, makers of Mills Magic Rose Mix. He was a kind and generous person. He was a strong supporter of ARS and MRS and he and his son, John, were sponsors of The Great Rosarians of the World™ East, for many years. He will be greatly missed.
We are looking forward to 2021 and hope that the vaccine will allow us to meet again in person, but that won’t happen until later in the year. This is the first time in 16 years that we have not held our Annual Holiday Party. We’re going to think positive and look forward to coming together in 2021 to celebrate the holidays, as always. Until then, we must remain vigilant and protect ourselves and our loved ones so that we can have that bright future waiting for us. Protect others and yourself - Wear a Mask!!
Wishing you Happy Holidays and all the best for 2021! See you on January 9th !
Pat Shanley
