Elizabeth Schleicher
Growing up on the family farm in Southern Ontario, Elizabeth was always surrounded and fascinated by plants and nature.
The love and interest in gardening certainly influenced her desire to become an accredited Judge of Horticulture and Design with the Royal Botanical Gardens and Garden Clubs of Ontario respectively. Elizabeth also holds an Ontario Horticultural Association Judging certificate.
Her passion for roses inspired her to grow roses in her home garden and to learn more about her favorite flower she joined the Canadian Rose Society (CRS) and her local rose society, Hamilton and Burlington Rose Society.
After a few years she earned her judging accreditation with the CRS, become President in 1999- 2001 and is also a rose consultant with both the CRS and ARS.
She held the position on the Board of the WFRS as Chair of the Standards Committee and now is a Board member of the Manhattan Rose Society.
Currently Elizabeth is the Chair of the Judges' Committee of the CRS and has organized a judging school both virtually and in person.
This love of roses takes Elizabeth and her husband, Helmut, to many parts of the world to attend WFRS conventions and conferences of other related organizations.
Closer to home she is very active in her home rose society, Hamilton and Burlington Rose Society and the Burlington Horticultural Society as Editor of both newsletters and Flower Show Chair for both organizations.
In her free time, Elizabeth hosts Zoom meetings for the various organizations where she holds memberships and continues to enjoy her hobbies of photography, gardening, travelling, jewelry crafts and Book Arts.
